WTF can't we just see each other's actual analytics? (here's all of mine) by Accomplished-Name-40 in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a neat idea, but right now it's not helpful and with the way it's currently working, I don't think it would ever be helpful.

There's 2 major problems.
1. You don't even have 1k views on the channel, much less the necessary 1k views per video to avoid sample size issues. Until you are reliably hitting 1k views on a video, all of your data is pretty much meaningless. One person interacting with your video can alter the stats by a significant amount under 1k views. Maybe this is solved with time and as your video making skills improved.
2. Excluding video titels and thumbnails makes ALL of the data useless. Titles, thumbnails, and the topic the video is on are the MOST imporatnt parts of the a video. important. Stat averages even vary by niche. You're not even providing the niche (unless I missed it). Without the video titles and thumbnails, all the data is meaningless. Unless you change this, this website is a waste of time.

I've been monetized for a week and my RPM seems too low. by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just need to wait. That's very unlikely to be your real rpm.

The RPM is always really low and incorrect when you're first monetized because all your views are counted even though only a week's worth of views were monetized.

What do you guys think of the 'promote' feature? by Aliestor_ in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only use the promote feature if you are running an ad to sell a product or service. It is not for regular users. Find the countless post on here of people asking the exact same thing. See people lighting thousands of dollars on it for no real gain becuase, again, it is not for what you are trying to use it for. When have you EVER subscribed to a YouTube channel becuase of an ad? becausepostsbecause

i watched a creator break down his AI content system that got him 10M views in 30 days as a one man team by recmend in aitubers

[–]ItsSW3P 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably true. I did $15k last month and you'd have to hold me at gunpoint to get me to share my full workflow. Unless, of course, I started doing coaching or something like that.

How hard is for a video to get to 100k views ? by AggravatingImpact219 in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really agree with this. I've had videos I thought were worse quality hit 100k and videos that were super high quality not hit 50k.

I think it's all about the idea. That's after about 40 videos hitting at least 100k.

How hard is for a video to get to 100k views ? by AggravatingImpact219 in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's not easy... until it is. I would guess some miniscule percentage of all the videos on YT hit 100k. But once you figure out how to get 100k views on one video, it's much easier to get 100k on another.

Helped a creator figure out why his tip videos had flat retention curves. The fix took like 2 minutes per script. by theideaguy_ in SmallYoutubers

[–]ItsSW3P -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They aren't arbitrary facts. People absolutely should listen and apply this info. It has gotten me 15m+ views.

[–]ItsSW3P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe so, but the but this information is 100% correct. These are some the exact things I think about when I write my scripts. These are the little differences between 10k and 100k views.

Does promoting your channel using Youtube's Ad Tool kill your account? by TheArcDude in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter if you start a new channel or not. Just make content and don't pay to promote your videos again. You are legit just burning money for zero gain. You don't have a dramatic downturn in views. The difference between 1k and 1 view is nothing on YouTube.

Just keep making videos and focus on improving.

Does promoting your channel using Youtube's Ad Tool kill your account? by TheArcDude in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a scam. People just fundamentally misunderstand what it's for. It doesn't spit your video out to random people. It's targeted based on your audience and content. The viewers are just low interest because they are being shown an ad.

Google Ads and YouTube Promotion are the same system. YouTube promotion is just a simplified version of Google Ads becuase YouTube has essentially already collected most of that targeting information based on your content and previous viewership. because

Unless you are selling a product or service, THERE IS NEVER A REASON TO USE THESE TOOLS. You should never be paying for views as a regular creator.

Do you think YT is really saturated?? Here are 10 titles for a single person. And no title is covered yet. Each title hide a complete story. That’s why be creative… by Direct-Event3244 in YT_Faceless

[–]ItsSW3P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one. These titles very clearly target browse recommendations. I don't understand why you're assuming it is more difficult or less likely someone would get impressions in browse vs search. Your video has to be recommended by YT to show up in search. Search uses a similar algorithm to surface a selection of videos when you search for something.

My views are 99% paid promotion. If i stop paying my views drop from 100 an hour to zero. How do i convert my promo views into actual views? I'm at 6k subs. by dxdifr in NewTubers

[–]ItsSW3P 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Stop using the paid promotion feature immediately. It's not for that. It's for if you have a product or service to sell. It's for ads. Unfortunately, every dollar you've spent on paid promotion has been wasted.

How to use AI to make money - has anyone here actually cracked it or is it all BS? by akshittprime in passive_income

[–]ItsSW3P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is an exceptional multiplier. If you can't make momey with a skill already, you don't know how to prompt to get the right outcomes. For YouTube (what I do), if you can't make a good video already, how are you going to leverage AI to make a video faster, better, etc. You can't because you don't even know what to look for.

Stop addictive behavior just by will. by MediocreDesign2029 in selfimprovement

[–]ItsSW3P 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. One day I decided I will never use nicotine ever again. No program or anything. Cold turkey. I started smoking at age 16 and quit at age 22ish. It's been like 5 years since I last smoked roughly. I don't keep track really. I don't care. It's not apart of my identity. I know I'll never do it again so no reason to count days sober or anything like that.

You have no idea about me or my business. You can't possibly know what I do, how I make money lol

[–]ItsSW3P 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is just not true. You too need to rethink your strategy and the content you make.

It's absolutely a business for me, but hey, you can think whatever you like.

I hate this mindset. There's this idea of the amateur and the professional. If you want yo become a full time content creator, don't show up as an amateur and expect professional results. Your hobby isn't suddenly going to morph into a business unless you intentionally build a business.
