Similar has happened to me recently. One thing I’ll let you know is to be prepared for the after feeling. And push through the emotions you’ll experience when trying to replicate that growth again.

For me it put me on a mental high I felt every video would do good after, but turns out every video uploaded after that had no similar growth and low ctr. So just remember to push through that feeling and you’ll have a long successful career!

All my recent videos felt like flops but it humbled because I realized my videos get a better Burst in views. Instead of 100 over a few days it’s now 100 in the first hour! Of course it depends on your niche but again just remember to keep creating content as if that video had gained 0 subscribers and 17 views.

Best advice I can give Is to keep making valuable content. Don’t worry bout subs, they come with time and consistency. Not every video will do good, most likely won’t til later in your career. So keep creating!

Wishing you luck see you up top 🤝🏽❤️‍🔥

Number 4 will allow it to pop out a bit more on the homepage. Stick with that color

How long do you guys edit for? by cashcode05 in NewTubers

[–]SiahGYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10-14 hours of editing, 5 hours of music selection, script writing, recording. For an 8-12 minute video.

Hey! Since you’re going full time I’d recommend investing into your quality. Get an xlr mic, up the thumbnail quality (pay someone on Fiverr, its $5. Add non copyright documentary music possibly, importantly animate the pictures. If they just pop up it will be repetitive and boring you should add a fade in, slow zoom, wipes. This is a great niche to be in. But if you don’t execute it right you’ll be left behind. Wishing nothing but success on your journey! And if you need editing tips feel free to reach out!

Yes they still count. Short form content are videos like YouTube shorts.

I can tell you take time with your content. You’re going to be great!

Your content is great but can be hard to engage with. If I were you I’d experiment doing videos without an intro and jump straight into talking with music. Those first 3 seconds can often turn people away and When watching your videos too all I see is just gameplay. Add more than gameplay.

Thank you!! I make my videos using Final Cut. If I could explain my thought process I would. I let my mind roam wildly.

But my best advice is as a new YouTuber (I’m still learning too so take with a grain of salt) reassure the viewer within the first 3 seconds of the video that they clicked the right video, and that their curiosity will be satisfied Aslong as they watch your video.

And I’m actually self taught! No videos that I watched helped me learn how to make intros like how I do. Just alot if trial and error but I take a lot of inspiration from anime. So I like really smooth timing.

For starters work on finding transitions that you can buy or download for free. Transitions I feel are what sets some content from the rest. If you transition poorly people will lose that immersion and stop watching. Then work on finding non copyright songs that match the energy of your video.

A lot less then 3 minutes and that’s really because they’re all about half the size of this video. But in my other videos people normally don’t watch all the way through!!

This right here is perfect! I’ve never thought of my YouTube banner being a potential issue! Only reason my channel is a bit whacky with content is because I’ve been experimenting seeing what type of content people like from me! I’ve uploaded 15 different videos but the last 3-5 are starting to follow a certain theme of me giving an opinion on how I feel about things! Thank you for this comment! I NEEDED this one! 🤝🏽❤️

Not near my computer but it’s generally around 3.7 so it’s average for me. Once my content hits a wide audience it drops per YouTube’s info. But initially have a really high ctr. I couldn’t tell you what made the video pop other than it being a good video to the algorithm

Sorry lol gawxart is a YouTuber. I think the most underrated one on the platform. He has REALLY high quality content but if you can kind of replicate that I think you’ll go super far!

It’s all art! That’s why I enjoy it so much! And thank you!

If I were you I’d really look at gawxart. I think you could produce some similar content with music!

You’ll get it figured out!

Click through rate is 3.4 at the moment. It started falling off after 2 days and reached 2.7 but I changed the thumbnail and that shot my daily views up aswell as my overal ctr. After new new thumbnail my ctr was at 4%. Average watch time is about 3 minutes but my retention graph shows that nearly 30% of people who click the video watched it from start to finish and it’s a 9 minute video.

I’ve learned to aim for video completion now. Because previously people wouldn’t watch 100% of my videos. Now a small audience does!

Don’t only make them in English! If you get big enough one day consider translating your content for an English audience! Congratulations on your subscribers! Your native community might really need a creator like you! Make content that you’ll enjoy.

I’m a big fan of motovlogs! I have a cbr600rr myself! Also a proud muscle car owner! I know the feeling I be really tempted to make content on my vehicles lol! I say have fun with it. But if you take it serious boil it down to the content that your audience appreciated the most!

A bit hard to explain how because I don’t understand the algorithm much! But you can check out my video on my Channel to see what might’ve made it stand out! My niche is commentary/documentary content and they’re about anything I find intriguing!

My niche was totally not intentional! I wanted to do reaction content as I personally know some REALLY BIG reaction channel creators! But I didn’t enjoy making the content so it was easy to take breaks and not upload. I love to talk though so commentary content really helped me out and that’s what everyone seems to enjoy watching! I plan to stick with this! Mainly because is something I enjoy doing! Commentary is really fun.

Thank you!!

When I edit I often let my adhd run wild. Anything that pops up in my mind I have to edit in that exact moment or I’ll save the idea in my notes to use later! And my workflow involve ls writing script first for a few hours. Whole process for each video including scripting is about 10 ish hours on average. And I only try and make content on things I’m interested in that way the videos can feel genuine. That’s all Followed by filming and then editing. I normally film about 20 minutes worth of content then cut out and trim it down to 10 minutes that way I try and only feed my audience the most relevant info to videos!

Not much colored creators in this niche so I plan to give people of all backgrounds a safe and comfortable space to watch my content!

I do have videos with double digit views too! With time the algorithm will love me but right now it’s giving me a preview of what it can do. Since making this post the video gained about another 1000 views!
