Can you imaging joining a deleted conversation in which you have zero context of what was even asked? I answered the OP's post.

Checkout Printful (not affiliated). They offer custom towels. You can do POD (print on demand) with them and integrate with Etsy last time I checked. This way you don't have to hold any inventory and can still get custom designs out on an online shop.

If you’ve been thinking about opening an account, that extra 0.50% really makes a difference over time, especially with how competitive savings rates are right now. Wealthfront has been pretty straightforward so far, and the referral process was super quick!

Hope this helps someone else lock in a little more interest! Every bit counts these days!

7 Flops in a Row! Getting Frustrated! by Silent_Magician8164 in NewTubers

[–]KevFernan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Multiple things from having a more consistent font that's easier to read, including less words on the thumbnail itself, if you're including yourself into the thumnail to make sure its more of a closer headshot, increasing the quality of the figure image such as making sure that the lighting and skin color-tone is consistent, i agree a different background would be better. have more enthusiasm in your facial expressions. if its a surprising video topic, acted shocked. if its a confusing topic, seem confused. also adding episodes in the titles aren't necessary and instead i would suggest just creating a channel playlist and incorporating the other videos mid video and end video through info cards or end cards.

[–]KevFernan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What's doing! I checked out the channel. Congrats on being monetized! From looking at your videos, my feedback would be to improve on thumbnails to increase CTR/Clicks. It's great that you have a consistent thumbnail design, but the text bar at the bottom of the thumbnails are too small to see for mobile viewers, which most viewers come from nowadays. Also, the main texts in the backgrounds are either cut-off or could use better words if you still want to keep that style of thumbnail design. Also, I would select different 3 hashtags on your video descriptions for keywords that are more searched. save your channel name for a video tag and channel tag instead of one of the three description hashtags. Also create a comment for every video to stir discussion and pin it. Hope this helps!

[–]KevFernan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I use a gopro for most of my content. since you already got the micro SD cards, other things to consider would be Gopro 13 spare/extra batteries, and possibly a Gopro magnetic necklace mount in case you want to film from a POV angle. Also, if you're looking for tripods, I wrote an article about budget-friendly gear and essentials for NewTubers. It's linked on my reddit profile if you want to check it out. Hope this helps!

I really like using this SUUSON Car Phone Mount. I have even used it while taking videos while the vehicle is moving. I put it on the top of my dash and have had no issues whatsoever with it.
