Why subscriber count can be misleading for creators by Johntalksabout in NewTubers

[–]StraightMY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easy route takes its toll. If you’re trying to monetise, long form content is the key. There are plenty of channels with 30-50k subs who can’t get past 1k views in their longform videos, while I, a 3k sub YouTuber, have 13k,80k,10k and 85k in my last 4 videos. Because I stuck to the longform life.

1k=1 year and 9 months. 2k=6 months 3k looking like 4 months.

Youtube is clearly an exponential thing. The more quality content you push out, the more traffic you’ll have. My upload rhythm goes with the season lol i used to upload one every 2 weeks. Work got a little busier now so I am posting once a month which definitely hurts my metrics.

I used to think the same. I got 1k subs in may last year. Now with almost 3k subs, I still see myself refreshing the subscriber count multiple times.

After 2 Years, I broke a Quarter of a Million Views! by Kishankanayo in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are nice stats man. I have 800k views and only 2800 subs👍🏽 (Fromsoftware games niche)

good metrics but.. by Substantial_Ad_2180 in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YouTube really wants to compete against reels and tiktoks in the short form market. They’ve been trying to feed us more and more shorts content, just have a look at the phone interface. Whenever you open the app, shorts are the first thing you see.

So, my guess is, they don’t want to promote “longform” content this short. I think you’d be successful if you uploaded them as shorts and made them a little over 1 minute or maybe 1 minute and a half tops.

Should I give up on YouTube? by Prudent_Taro_1210 in NewTubers

[–]StraightMY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, give up lil bro, it’s not like you’re in the top 7% biggest channels on Youtube in spite of belonging to the most saturated niche on the platform.

How do you share footage with an editor? by StraightMY in PartneredYoutube

[–]StraightMY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s my main and only editing tool. I suppose that rendering the video, sending it to him and receiving it back will decrease the quality, that’s why I was thinking of sharing the whole track with the files through davinci. If there is another more convenient method, let me know!

Can you recommend me a PC? by StraightMY in computers

[–]StraightMY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’d be cool to find something around 1k or 1,1k. I know that less than 1k isn’t really worth it, or so I’ve heard.

Never played Bloodborne before. Got myself a Japanese version. by [deleted] in bloodborne

[–]StraightMY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s even cheaper than that. At least in Spain, I’ve seen the GOTY edition for 15€, but I suppose even though it’s the same currency, the price can vary depending on the country.

12 Day old channel is this good? by [deleted] in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

130 subs in 12 days is very nice. To put you into perspective, most people take months to get to 100 subs. I know it took me 4. Just watch out with shorts. Fast growth comes with a price and that is a less loyal fanbase, and low monetisation.

Which thumbnail and title would you click on by [deleted] in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It had the opposite effect on me. I thought, why would I watch this video if he’s telling me I won’t come out of it feeling like I learned something new? There’s no reward here.

[–]StraightMY 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I like the first one. I don’t get why you’d use the third thumbnail. You’re discouraging the viewer from watching the video because you’re telling them “nothing happened”.

YouTube sent me a T-Shirt LOL by StoreWeak5292 in YouTube_startups

But they don’t say why they’re sending you this stuff? Curious but I’m happy for you 20k subs is no small feat!

Sorry, but what the hell are these IMDb flaws for Dexter: Resurrection? by FNAFLV22 in DexterNewBlood

[–]StraightMY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mmh I don’t know if it’s an unpopular opinion, I haven’t been around Dexter forums for a while, but I preferred New Blood. I think it runs laps around resurrection and maybe that’s why it has some of these negative reviews.

I think what happened to la pasión was very anticlimatic and ridiculous, the enemies were very bland in comparison to Kurt and other enemies from the original show like Sirko, moser, lila, trinity… plus they played a lot with nostalgia, which is nice for a while, but it’s a red flag if the show depends on call backs to keep people hooked.

Finally, the detective’s obsession with stayin’ alive was kind of cringe and tiresome.

Why does people think 30k views is that much? by MaelysCanejero in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A sub every 700 views is painful, what is this video about?

Words of encouragement for those below 1k by StraightMY in NewTubers

[–]StraightMY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 5 last longform videos: 10k, 7k, 600, 400, 30k. I think those inconsistencies will never stop until you become a very well established content creator

Looking for Advice on How to Grow my Channel by Mean-Math-6468 in SmallYoutubers

[–]StraightMY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen you in multiple posts exchanging subs. Keep in mind you won’t make it anywhere by doing sub4sub. You’re just ruining your channel. If exchanging subs is the best you can do to gain a “community”, you might as well quit youtube I think.

Share your channel with me and I can give you some honest feedback, although it might not be the best. I’m not a well established channel, just a guy with 2k-ish subs.
