come up with something really original, ive tried to use series that are either new or that are not really well known cause honestly, after doing opinions for probably 10 naruto amvs, they all begin to look the same at some point. I dont claim to be a great amv maker in any way but my first amv (which has just reached 2000 hits today, yea for me!) was a comedy comercial of a series that was still comming out so it was not really well known. People saw it, liked it, and i had a number of people check out my later amvs because of that.
So, my advice is to think of a really original idea using anime that is not overused and then put a buttload of effort into making a kick ass amv. stick it up on announcements and get some ops for it and hope the public is feeling nice.
For instance, I have an amv idea which i beleive will generate a lot of interest however the anime material i will be using has not been made yet (i know it will come out because i have read the manga) so i have gotten the outline and idea of my amv ready and as soon as the episodes are released i'll put it together and post it, hopefully before tons of other people do the same thing.
Also, check and see what some of the more successful amvs are like, not all of them use huge blinding effects, some of them are quite plain as far as effects, but they have a good music choice, good anime choice and a good theme that the video is based around, that's what makes a good amv.
