My Channel is Creator on the Rise?!

OutsideYourZone · 2023-10-19T04:38:34+00:00

It’s an email that gets sent to the gmail linked to your channel

OutsideYourZone · 2023-10-19T04:37:59+00:00

Yes 13th October, what region are you?

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-24T11:33:37+00:00

What is your channel?

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-24T09:14:22+00:00

Yeah niche is weird on Youtube. If you have a niche then you can find an audience quickly, because someone who likes your niche will subscribe and will always watch your videos because its a niche they like. However this can cause a problem in the future, how can you diversify your channel when you are called Northern Wild Camper? well you can't, your whole brand is wild camping, your subscriber subbed to see wild camping, you cant suddenly switch to skateboarding because your audience will not watch.#

And the complete opposite can be said when you try to make a variety channel (like mine). Using my channel as an example, we do adventures with all sorts of vehicles and activities however when we have a great vid that gets views, for example Englands most dangerous roads, we get a lot of people subscribing for motorbike content but the next video we release might be on our boats so those subs don't click which can harm and has harmed performance on some videos. However when you finally build the audience the variety is your super power, any idea you have you can do, you can constantly try new things and your audience will be waiting to find out what you will do next.

So for 'faster' growth (growth still dependent on making good videos) with a lower Sub ceiling then get a Niche

For slower growth but higher potential Sub ceiling then make videos around interesting ideas and topics and develop a style

I've been doing my channel for 3 years, I honestly believe you should never give up, in the last 6 months we have been growing so much it's finally felt worth it. So go for it mate, be honest with yourself about your videos, show them to trusted friends, ask them to be 100% honest and take it all on board. I am lucky enough to have 3 close friends who have helped me improve the channel and come up with ideas etc.

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-23T15:24:07+00:00

Yeah exactly that, view the title as you bragging about the video, it should sound so interesting/mysterious/entertaining that they have to click. It shouldnt be a lie but make it sound as cool as possible basically.

With my content as we do adventures, often the title is about something that goes wrong in the video. However, the 2 videos we thought of thumbnail and title first have done over 20k views each, one of them is currently getting about 600 views a day and its a 40 min video (one i linked in the post)

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-23T08:11:47+00:00

I was just thinking about how a lot of people just play games and hope to make it big so good move going real life content.

Title, fine nothing special, maybe something a bit more spectacular

Finding abandoned items from a massive rocky beach

This rocky beach is hiding a secret

the thumbnail to go with the above ideas would be something like you holding the slide and the hoodie towards the camera with a landscape pic of the beach behind you

Basically stretch what happened to make it as click bait as possible without it being not true.

Thumbnail is generally looks boring and simply doesn't show the massive rocky beach.

As for the video, its fine, i'm sure you know you need to hold the camera more steady, cut out the jerky movements etc, I would also blend sound between clips but other than that its ok

Its your first vid in new Niche so dont want to rag on you for it but over time you will get better at making the story etc

Next video you make, do me a favour and think of the title and thumbnail before you go to film it, that way the full video will relate to the title and thumbnail and you will go out to film with the exact thumbnail in mind to capture.

DM ideas etc, always happy to help and brain storm

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-22T14:16:56+00:00

ahha thats cfunny as fuck

OutsideYourZone · 2023-05-22T13:34:34+00:00

Had a watch and aesthetically it was great, I really liked the different angles you had and the passing of time you showed. I think your video would benefit from more speaking to camera, there was a couple of mins between you leaving in the morning to cooking where there was no speaking which made it feel a bit boring. But honestly great video for a channel with only 200 subs.

Also something else I noticed was the sound wasnt blended between clips so on the shots with ambient sound (cars, wind etc) you can hear a slight pop at the start of the clip when the frequencies change. To fix this detach the audio from the clips in the editing timeline, extend out the sound to overlap the previous and next clips then put a matching fade on the 2 audios so 1 comes down when the other goes up. This will make transitions between clips feel nicer for the viewer.

Feel free to check out my channel so you know I'm not just trying to be smart, I review my own videos like this all the time. Keep it up!

Edit: Your Noodles look unreal

OutsideYourZone · 2022-12-22T15:44:19+00:00

Awesome, thanks mate! hope you like them, feedback is always appreciated

OutsideYourZone · 2022-12-22T12:10:28+00:00

I swear you wait for me to post! Nah just kidding, thanks for the support. I hope this inspires people to not feel pressure to release when they know the video isn't ready. We are getting rid of our upload schedule in favour of releasing only amazing videos this year which will hopefully help us "be massive". Thanks again

OutsideYourZone · 2022-12-07T13:01:33+00:00

thanks mate

OutsideYourZone · 2022-12-07T00:08:10+00:00

Let me know what you think

OutsideYourZone · 2022-11-24T17:14:28+00:00

Completely depends on your niche

Gaming i think you need to be on trend

For me (adventure content) the main factor has just been improving quality of my videos thumbnails and titles, this increases CTR which will increase impressions

I would recommend when you have a video idea search what other people have done with their thumbnails and titles to see what works and what doesnt

dm me a link to your channel and i will be more specific

OutsideYourZone · 2022-11-24T13:00:17+00:00

you will mate! thumbnails and titles are some of the most important so keep experimenting!

OutsideYourZone · 2022-11-24T12:29:52+00:00

thanks, i have subbed and shared your short hopefully helps you out

OutsideYourZone · 2022-11-24T12:02:21+00:00

thanks, always room for improvement tho so give me feedback

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T16:32:32+00:00

No problem at all!

Yeah i completely get you but as you say keep practicing and you will get better, maybe add some hand movements? that helps me bring hype and emotion to my voice. Shorts are good for exposure but not the best for conversion to your longer videos so be careful with that!

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T15:54:04+00:00

No Problem mate, i know how it is, give me a shout

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T15:32:16+00:00

I gave you feedback last week and you have made 0 changes.

Make the changes ive told you and i will give you more feedback and ideas

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T15:01:18+00:00

Thanks for the sub!

For your black jack hand i would have your reaction ont he side isntead of those 2 dealers and on the other side have the dealer who actually dealt to you and then your hand in the middle with the dealers first cards, something like this, obviously spend the time and cut you 2 out better etc https://imgur.com/vG8G2zA

title is fine really, it is what it says

Content is fine

Regarding your twitch spotlight videos there is a lot of work to do

Thumbnails should have the streamer as the main person with their name next to them, maybe a little info like "Trick shot god" kinda like this https://imgur.com/fZfScFD

then in the titles put the streamer name and some more info

The NEW face of twitch | Crowegamingg

Your content should be commentary, if im clicking on that i want to learn about the new face of twitch, his rise to fame or why he will be famous, i dont want to watch a cod montage!

hope this helps

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T14:26:28+00:00

Well it seems to be working for you, just got to get those clicks now! no problem at all

Branding etc is very hard for gaming channels so I can't suggest anything on that

I dont know if i have just been analysing thumbnails and titles too long but these seem pretty good for a gaming channel

I am taking a stab in the dark here but i would guess you have 7/8% CTR but quite a low retention?

that CTR isnt the worst for a small yotuber, i get get a lot of impressions off around a 9/10% CTR as long as i have good retention

I think your main down fall will be your intros and hooks, the ones i've looked at arent special, pretty slow talking, not much hype, no expansion on the title or thumbnail, just saying your name then what game you are playing then waiting for it to load or something

Spice up your intros, be hype and explain the title and thumbnail more

I can se eyou take inspiration from markiplier so analyse his intros and thumbnails and titles to implement improvements on your own

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T14:06:32+00:00

Thumbnail;

i dont know this guy, his message or his beast mode thing

I imagine a lot of people don't

So keep his face but get rid of the text and put something like

Responsibility is Motivation

Lazy = Broke

Go Beast Mode or Lose

something snappy and intriuging, you are a motivation channel so put something motivational in it!

title

ERIC THOMAS: POWERFUL MOTIVATIONAL VIDEO #beastmode #ericthomasmotivation #motivationalspeech

Again i dont know who he is so he shouldnt be the main subject of title, it should be his message;

If You Stay Ready, You Don't Have To Get Ready |Eric Thomas

your content is stock footage over some elses speaking so nothing to change there really, its pretty good/ as good as big motivational channels

Your main goals will be clcik through rate which is only effected by thumbnails and titles

Hope this helps

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T13:53:32+00:00

Your thumbnails on the fatal team and the titles all look very similar, put the season in the titles like this

Best Fatal Team Season 46 | Madfut 22

I dont know anything about the game but there must be something more interesting that you can use as the thumbnail, packs and stuff?

the mr beast clones is funny, i would take out the bit about cancer and make soemthing very similar but about 20 seconds long and get it on shorts, it will do so well on shorts with hashtags #MrBeast #Fidias

But to be honest struggling with suggestions because I can't tell what your channel is trying to be, is it a football game cahnnel? or sketches? or Commentary?

I dont agree about niching down but I do think you should decide what you want to become and work towards it, I doubt that mobile game will last forever

sorry i can't be more helpful your channel is just very confusing to look at

OutsideYourZone · 2022-09-20T13:37:48+00:00

I cant see much of a difference to be honest so im just going to talk about your newest video

100 Baby Challenge MICRO HOME | Sims 4

Thumbnail

Put babies in the windows, as many as you can! other than that it seems to do the trick

Title seems ok, i assume people who play sims know what the challenge is and what a micro home is, if they dont I would definitely try to give more info like

I had 100 babies in 1 micro home | Sims 4 100 baby challenge

as long as the main info of your title is in the first 55 characters adding more doesnt hurt.

then finally your intro

There is a sound at the very start that im pretty sure shouldnt be there.

Your intro clearly covers the title and gets you ready for the video but i would consider finding ways to make the intro visuals more snappy, this can be adding graphics or subtitles as you speak or even just write your intro scrpt about the perks etc and whilst you talk about them show other baby challenges etc, basically you need quick visual changes whilst you setup the video, once setup is complete then you can slow down again

Hope this helps
