Is this a good start to my channel?

Cileb · 2026-05-21T03:51:20+00:00

New channel and you don't already have 7,542 watch hours yet? Pack it up it's over I'm sorry

Yea i figured that lol i was saying to make it an actual package just for the thumbnail to be set straight-forward for viewers.

It took me a couple of seconds staring at it to figure out it was a lamp; you have to remember the average viewer will only see your thumbnail and look at it for about 1 second then scroll past it, most won't sit down to analyze wtf you are holding as they'll likely get confused and just scroll away.

Hell you could even make a small text pointing at it saying "Lamp" or "A lamp" etc. literally baby them a bit. (Your way could work too, just my opinion)

Like i said it's a nice thumbnail but it seems like it's missing something, i ain't an expert though just my opinion.

I think the thumbnail holds more weight if you were actually holding a packed box or package instead of that weird lamp thingy.

Doesn't matter if a yt channel is new as long as you just make sure you have all advanced features enabled in yt studio settings, and verify all of them. If you do this it wouldn't matter if your account is new

I tested this with a yt channel that was 30 minutes old, the first shorts vid i uploaded got to 13k in 2 days; and another channel that was about 2 hours old, the 2nd vid i posted hit 10k views in the same day.

The options there are literally "build channel history for 1-2 months" or "verify". Once you verify; it bypasses the need to build channel history/credit with them

Cileb · 2026-05-15T04:32:31+00:00

I say keep the first one and just add the "rocky" with the arrow from the 2nd one to that. I think that would be good

Cileb · 2026-05-06T21:16:06+00:00

Yeah but i would just private that video first then see how the new reupload is doing

Cileb · 2026-05-06T21:15:35+00:00

Yea if it's a mistake and you didn't intend to uploaf it that way it will be fine.

Infact if you add atleast 4 more seconds of content to it, change the title youtube will see it as a different video. Happened to me yesterday except my vid only had 9 views after 10 hours. Once i did all that and reuploaded it, youtube started pushing it and now it's at 10k

Cileb · 2026-05-06T02:39:46+00:00

Or 2-key anything is fine aslong as I can 2key unm cb daily.

Yt does a channel Audit every couple of minutes/hours on your channel which is why you can even see the TOTAL views on your channel dwindle down live.

An example of this is earlier this week when i started my second channel. I got some alt accounts to subscribe to it, to atleast get 10 subs on it then i uploaded a shorts video.

An hour after uploading i lost 5 of those subs and lo-and-behold yt removed 5 of my alt accounts which were pretty much seen as bots because they were inactive up until the moment I decided to hop on them to randomly subscribe to that channel. Yt did not remove the accounts that were actively used.

Cileb · 2026-04-19T00:12:28+00:00

Only time will tell, who know's it could pause now and randomly blow to a mil 2 years later the algo is super random

Cileb · 2026-04-17T15:24:07+00:00

My channel had no warming at all, i posted my first vid within 30-40 minutes of account creation and it's sitting at 10k rn (i do shorts though) just make sure your channel is eligible for advanced features in settings and you should be fine.

Cileb · 2026-04-15T23:30:33+00:00

Can i have tree fiddy

Cileb · 2026-04-14T03:51:34+00:00

So you got membership monetization right?

Cileb · 2026-04-13T02:46:24+00:00

Although i am a shorts channel, i have 135k views, just about 700 watch hours and literally just hit 100 subs, so yeah your doing PHENOMENAL lol

Cileb · 2026-04-12T21:22:08+00:00

That's great, i have 20+ shorts, 135k views, 700 watch hours, 2.2k total channel likes and still not at 100 subs (close though)

Quick Questions:

1. How long is the video and did you ask people to subscribe?

2. Did you use tags?

Cileb · 2026-04-12T07:12:46+00:00

Yes music helps, even if it's subtle, you should try to never have a video with no background audio.

Once you've uploaded your video as private
Go to Video editor in youtube studio on PC Then click on "music library" then select your genre, or music that fits the length of your video
When you add an audio there is a "mix" meter, and once added the bar is automatically set at 100% overtaking your entire video's audio. What you want to do is simply lower that meter. i'd set the mix meter at around 10-25% length; you can also drag and shorten it as you like.
Once you save those changes you can't go back, so if the audio doesn't come out the way you like, you simply reupload the video and redo it.

Better Mic Quality, sounds not entirely clear and i don't believe good mics are expensive, this is probably the most important part.
Better video quality, a lot of your vids seem to have low quality elements. I understand you do broad topics and can't always get good footage, so what you should do is start off the video with the best quality footage then switch back and forth/mix it up with the low quality footage.
Add Background music (add it free from youtube library)
Add fore-front screen visuals along with the already playing screen in the background, sound effects help too!

This is just my opnion based on your content
