Thanks. (´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`)
Everyone who reads this, good luck growing your YT channel and never give up. Everyone starts small 💪💪💪
Thank you
Thanks
Thanks :)
Thanks
I appreciate that you don't sugar coat things. A lot of videos make these huge promises and just tell people what they want to hear, which doesn't help anyone. So thanks for keeping things grounded in reality, but also still giving valuable info for people to continue to work toward their goals.
I hope all of the small youtubers continue uploadingg!! Do not be discouraged we can do this!🔥
thanks for the encouragement.
Thank You so much!! My husband and I started 90 days ago. We are enjoying it!!
Yeah...let's start...
Working on it! Just uploaded my 7th video!!
Help us
I hope we all got 4K hours watch time within a year. ❤
yay!
Same
Yes
After almost 3 months in UA-cam making video we finally reach the 1,000 subs and 4,000 watch hours. I can't believe it.
Same here
If your just starting your channel, keep grinding. Dont give up! We all got this!!!!! And for those that start the year fresh with their channel in 2022, congratulations.
Thank you for encouraging words...going to subscribe to your channel now... i started January 25th,,,a month ago Today..and im happy with the results so far...hope you come over and subscribe.
how about this UA-cam community help me get 1000 subscribers
Thanks for your encouragement, just started my
I just started mine yesterday. Thank you for encouragement. 😊
Just started, first video up today, thank you and good luck 🤞
I've watched this a couple of times, its refreshing and encouraging every time. Personality and Charisma doesn't hurt either ;) thanks Rob.
Hope you all reach 4000 hours this year! Who else started 2021?
Meeeee
Me too started in 2021
I did...very exciting
2020, but I hope I'm getting there
@@HowNotToPlay32 good luck
To the person reading this I hope much success to you and don’t ever let anyone shame you or tell you you can’t do something
can you play my FendiYT streams playlist in the background of ur pc?? Helps me get my goal of 4k hours
Yo this is not spam so don't skip over this comment plz I need help. . . 👊Can you go to my Streams playlist and let that run in the background while you do whatever you have to do? It would help me reach my goal of Watch Time🤗
Thank u
Great Taps Thanks!

Im halfway to 4000 hours and am about 7 months in to restarting my channel. My advice is stay consistent and keep trying to be better and more natural behind the camera. Not a lot of the UA-cam points work great for me, since I am an Automotive channel but keep posting and make sure its engaging. WE have grown so much in the 7 months. We just need the extra bump in hours and we will be at that point of getting paid.
I really love how engaging your content is - you really do practice what you preach. It looks like THIS is an evergreen video given as it was posted a year ago and keeps showing up for me. You also mentioned several different reasons for people to comment something below. I love the deliberate/catchy methods you use! Learning so much 😀
Good luck
God, this is probably the only channel that has prepared me for youtube's ever changing landscape.. So Informative
I defiantly agree
Smar
Yeah, so glad I found this vid😭
Frr I just wish it was as Easy as he says it is😭😭
HugtoHug Guys!
Whoever is also a small UA-cam’s keep going your time will come
Ye
I subbed as well can u return the favour as well
Pls
ACE_RollyG040 i subbed to u can u return the favour
💕
Thank you!
Another UA-camr said the same thing. Quantity over quality. Actually, when you think about it, you only get quality by doing quantity. It's a natural kaizen thing. I'm only 2 months in, have uploaded around thirty videos and the quality in all aspects are worlds apart from the first to the last. And there's certainly room for improvement. Spot on... thanks for the amazing tips!
Found this super helpful...when I first had the idea to start a YT channel I didn't know you had to earn monetization. Well now I have a clearer pathway to getting there. Thanks a lot!
Whoever is watching this to grow your channel: YOU GOT THIS💪🏻🥰 Stay creative and stay inspired!💕
hey can you help me grow?
Thx
Yes
I just started today, I hope you grow too
@@bluerain9535 good luck
This content is great! Honestly inspiring and informative - loved it! Also, you've got yourself a new Pro customer! 👍
Best advice ever!!! “quantity vs quality” is always controversial 😅 but I agree that quantity matters at the beginning ✨
Motivated me to start my own channel. I embarrassed myself twice in school during speaking competition. I made channel to overcome that and add value. Thank you Soo much. God bless you. Love from India 🇮🇳❤️
Keep making video. Don’t worry about embarrassments in high school. You will be successful 🥳
you already have more subscribers than I do, and with only 2 videos. Good job for you. Bad job for me.
Hi Rob, after 1000 days on UA-cam (yes three years), I was finally monetized this week. Thanks for sharing. ⭐️
Congrats on achieving your monetization.
Keep reaching for the stars 🤩
Wow I just make my second withdraw again today trading with expert Mrs Clara
I'm from Germany I used to take loan from the bank for surviver but after trading with expert Mrs Clara she changed my financial status for real I'm now a creditor not a debtor anymore
How much did you make by now?
honestly, it's about familiarity with the personality, as well as the value I get from your content. not to mention the fact you guys have the best tool for youtube analytics (only one worth mentioning) :) so this is the reason I follow you and binge on videos on occasion
Quality, honesty and INTERACTION! All my metrics exploded after I started streaming. Was dumb to take this long to do it. Talk to your viewers people, answer their questions. Goes a long way.
Currently working on this ❤️
hey just got a question, my watch hours when i go to the monitization tab is 3 hours but when i go to the analytics tab it t tells me i have 131 hours in the last 28 days can you help im very confused
Rob: *'We're all adults here'*
Me: Imma head out
exactemont
Same here ...
We can tell by the language...😂 I’m sure he also means anyone who is actually serious about growing on UA-cam.
@@LilCraftyNook haha just mucking around 😂
Lol
I got monetized after 11 months of hard work and consistent uploads. I found after getting monetized you still have to put in the work to eventually reap the benefits. UA-cam is a marathon not a race
Oh man do you run a vacuum channel?! Never even thought of that. I will refrain from any sucky puns. Glad you got the 4K!
@@mrcellmvc thankyou , I also run a cooking channel. Weber Enthusiast so pretty full on working wk.
I’m the perfect husband I cook and I clean 😂
After how long after being monetized did you first get paid?
@@XolzRandomWriting it’s every 30 days around the 24th - 27th of each month
@@KirbyEnthusiast thank you. Can't wait to get there myself... I still have a looooooooooong way to go lol but one day is one day
Vidiq, when I installed your tools and joined your subscription I went from 0 hours watched to 20 hours. 10 subscriber to 34 and from just a 120 views to 3k views. For a tiny channel. That’s beyond any goal I had set so far. Everything smashed! And new goals set. Thank you!
Great video thank you. Glad it confirmed a lot of my current strategies to growing my UA-cam channel. 4000 hours is a lot to reach but consistency is key and commitment to a process always pays off!
I’ve been able to get 4.5k subs and 2k hours of watch-time with only 4 videos! Only 2k hours left before I can finally monetize my channel! I’m so hyped! ⭐️
Make a video about Tupac or Hitler or about Solomon. You will gain a lot of viewers!
that`s sick dude! congrats! you should upload more btw
Explore Knowledge I’m planning to cover figures chronologically... so I’ll be in ancient time for a looong time
Aprende Inglés con Rafael yea I really need to. Thank you very much!
Awesome, hope you get those 2k hours fast
For all people who are watching this , please believe on your dream and block off all the negative energy !! we are gonna make it !!!

I like how in your video, you have the part at the very end giving some "rhetorical questions" and they actually are really meaningful.

slowly working toward my 4000 hrs, thanks for the amaizng content, really educational

Good

Thats the way to go
I just started UA-cam, who else started UA-cam 2020!!
Me
Mee
Me
Count me in
me. I started last month. gud luck to us
There's 2 days left of 2021, but I think 2021 advice will still be relevant to 2022. Thank you for your videos! it is helping me see that there;s a lot of work that I need to put in :)
This video is old but the information you shared still works! I’m so happy UA-cam recommends old videos especially ones like this with solid “actionable” information! I find your videos VERY informative and useful. I started my channel not that long ago and followed your suggestions and I’m growing fast! So thank you so much for all your research and then explaining it to everyone efficiently!! 🙏
Getting 4000 watch hours honestly takes a lot of work. Joining and building communities, spending few bucks for advertisement and staying active in forums of same topics/interest are just among the examples. Consider yourself lucky if you create a video that would go viral. The span takes before reaching the top will depend on your content. It took me more than a year to get monetized. That's year of hardwork. Good luck for new creators 👍
thank you for the info
Thank you and congratulations on your achievement of monetization
best wishes
I'm the Product Marketing Manager at Bublup and I also run/create for our UA-cam channel. I keep coming back because you go into the small details in a deep way. Your case studies and experiments and their findings interest me when I go into our UA-cam strategy. Thanks for taking the time to answer questions with firsthand trials and findings. It's very helpful to learn through your work. Thanks for sharing!
I started my cooking channel 2 months ago. Still have a lot to learn. I love cooking and when I am not cooking, I am painting :). Thank you for the tips. Wishing everybody a success.
Have been primarily doing shorts and have had pretty good success but have been trying to get some long form views and it’s been a struggle. Your videos give me the strength to keep going at it thanks a ton! Good luck everyone 💜
I have around 1.2k subs but only 3,000 hours. I’ll be able to monetize within the next month, growth is exponential on YT guys, keep grinding!!
Good work !
You will reach
trident can you help me i have 1k subs and i barely have watch hours
Nice all the best I just started my channel
2.4k subs now 2 months later! Smashing it! Monetized?
This is the video none of us knew we needed as content creators, but all of us did.
yep
Thanks man. Working on it 😎 Your videos have helped me a lot❤️
As a new channel just starting out, this is a really valuable video. Thank you so much Rob!
Quantity, because you just can't provide quality at the begining if you just started, quality will come with time if you are really into it and doing it because you love what you do.
Good luck to everyone grinding ✌
im grinding to get 1000subs and 4000watch hours rn i only have 18hours
thats what im glad about....i love what im doing.
"Work for it. Earn it. Respect it."
Love it 😎🤘
Keep grinding and stay focused
@@bondiBONDIEnglish Always
Well just because you work a lot doesn’t mean you’ll earn it
@@tspcpr Sure it does. You only get better with repetition. You earn anything doing nothing
Have you reached 4000hrs at 1000 Sub?
We are all trying bro 🙏🏾…let’s continuing putting out great contents
Im creating my first channel. Thank you so much for all the valuable info. I was sooo confused before i started watching your channel. Thank you very much
Excellent! Here your wording is precise, your voice is clear and the presentation is easy to follow You don't rush through it. That makes the content more valuable and enjoyable. Congrats!
I agree. I like his speaking pace!
The hardest thing is when it’s the morning and you go to your channel and there noting changed.
Me this morning :D
Angus you dont have any videos up tho
I subscribe to your channel. Don't give up!☀️
@@iyannajackson5354 hope things changed by now
Fr though
Good luck to all and hope everyone reaches their goals!...... keep grinding, dont quit and we'll succeed together
I love going through all the comments looking at people’s channels and seeing where they are in their journey☺️❤️ love to see people blowing up and growing their channels!!!
Lol me too
Thank you for taking time to do this awesome video its appreciated 😊🌻
Quality v.s. Quantity: I agree with you on this 💯 %
your turn
quality
About to monetise next week after 3 months since starting the channel. It's exciting to reach that point but as our wonderful Rob was saying for me the target was and is always the quality and value for my audience. I just love them ❤️ Thank you vidIQ!
🤣 🤣 🤣 Loving the camera theatrics... Keeps me watching... Your content is also elite!!! 😊
You guys make some really good content! Thanks for all the tips!
Awesome tips! I love the point about making consistently good videos, and after a while with enough viewers, you'll slowly get pushed up the line. Doing my best to get to that level!
Thanks buddy this is really gonna help grow my yt channel. I appreciate ur hard work!
We subbed 2 you!
Love the perspective you bring on this 🙏🤍
Well said Rob! Work for it, Earn it, Respect it! You are not entitled.... this is so true of LIFE. Keep up your great work and wishing you all the best. Regards Darren
this will be so helpful while I struggle to get the 1000, thank you Rob
We got this! Keep grinding guys 🙌🏿
Quantity vs Quality. That hit me. Thank you for this very informative video.
Absolutely loved this video! Thank you for sharing, we are getting close to that 4k hour time!
Honestly without a doubt, you're one of the most informative channels I've come across. Watching your vids and trying to grow my channel.
Thank you for sharing. This was an excellent video and tangible, smart advice!
I started posting last yr on October am I still on the last count of 12 months to be eligible to apply for monetization?
If yes, currently I have 1983 watch time hrs can I make it really in the remaining months?
I wish I properly understood this kind of stuff when I first started out. I was so obsessed with perfection and making videos "digestible" I physically couldn't do consistency. For me, it came from a place of insecurity, sure it led to some really good editing skills, but it made uploading an "event" and scary. Recently my subscribers made a fan discord for me and after talking to them I realized they just genuinely want to see more of me, whether it's with the bells and whistles of editing or not and I couldn't be more grateful.
I also really like the format of this video, its like you clickbait people into good advice by telling them directly that uploading isn't about "watch hours" I just truly didn't understand what watch hours were lmfaooo
New here, love the content, straight and to the point and easy to understand. Much appreciated! This makes me feel a bit more confident about my progress so far!

buddy, I recorded a video of how beginner youtubers get promoted on UA-cam
Watched this video till the end, liked & subscribed! Cheers mate..
Lawd!!! Getting the 1k was hard enough… then 4k hours… geez!! Great video and great information
Trying to remain consistent and patient while producing better quality with each post. Slowly getting there and if you’re a creator and reading this I hope you are too!
Right back at you friend!
Subscribe.
Yes. Do your work and make good content!
thanks
Keep grinding and stay focused
As a monetized youtube creator. It has been amazing to be paid by youtube advertizers.
But the real kicker was I didn't realize how much my audiance Valued my content. Like I love my content and every day i wanna make it better. For my new "series" I'll be testing what Dan said with episode numbers and leave them off thumbnails put the vid in a playlist and see how my core audiance responds.
It gives me a whole new outlook on youtube but in a positive way. But I think its large part to having 0 expectations going in. I love what i do being paid or not so to me its just a bonus cause id still be doing it paid or not
I generally post 2-4 minute videos on my channel, would increasing the video time into 8+ minutes mean I’ll reach the 4000 watch time faster?
Everything you just said sits with me so comfortably. "I love what I do being paid or not" I couldn't agree with you more! I've recently just discovered that video editing is something I should have been doing years ago. I love doing it so much I've hardly been able to sleep, Davinci Resolve keeping me awake at night, it's all Black Magics fault! The madness! :P :D
@@sandromatti7398 the length of the video has no barring on watchtime rather think of it as what is your audinace kindly willing to watch. and what is best for your content. I have found for my content in order to get 50% Average view duration if my videos are about 20-25 minutes thats the sweet spot but i am a poketuber so it makes a big difference
@@destrukshawn honestly that is the best part of youtube for me. Editing is actually a nice way to step back and relax. if i had a rough day ill go on an editing binge lmao
Did he talk about the "series" idea in a specific video? If so, let me know which one it was, I want to learn about it too!☺️ Thank you!
Thank you for the great video. My channel is coming along well since I've started it 5 months ago, I'll definitely catch up to the 4000 hours. And good luck to all of you!
When I first started my UA-cam channel; I tended to doubt myself throughout the first few videos, but as I started being more consistent with my videos, my subscribes started to raise tremendously. Thanks for the extra tips your provided in your video
within 11 months ... i have been consistent for nearly a month.. now this video is pure raw potent motivation.. now being consistent for 11 months... thats the target.. Cassie nystat was RIGHT" YOU GOTTA SHOW UP TO WORK EVERY SINGLE DAY "
Keep grinding and stay focused to monetize
This was so helpful! good luck to anyone trying to grow their channel, you'll get there!
Keep grinding and stay focused
Hey pls i need helpful
You can save pls
Started last month but I know I will make it. This has given me hope... Thank you🙏💕
Ah. There we go with the motivation boost for the month. Cheers! 🍻
Keep going, we just subbed!
I got monetized after 40 days since my first video, got 1k subs on the 25th day.
The moment I got my first pay, it was exhilarating. Sub counts have been increasing by the hundreds each day, and I was already making calculations as to how and WHEN my channel would be a bigger chunk of my passive income. I am making at least two videos per week and I don't see myself stopping anytime! Thanks mate, you have been an inspiration along with Nick Nimmin
Quick lol
These Vidiq videos really do help. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the advice we need more videos like this keep up with the great work
Just started my youtube channel and I came here to figure what in the world is watch time 😅 this vid was so valuable. THANK YOU ❤️
Thank you so much for this. You guys really are helping me grow my sneaker channel.
Love that too to ask a question at the start... P. S. Thanks again for the channel audit a few weeks ago.
I am a beginner I also subscribe to your channel I hope you return the favor hun..we are all in this together
You haven't inspired me to create my channel but you definitely showed me how to manage it. Because of you, I've gone from 200 subs to 2,715 in less than 9 months. I'm still struggling to get the 4,000 hours. I only have 1,385 but steadily getting more each day. I'm working on my video skills and that is what you are inspiring me to do. Thanx my dude!
Aim to improve on your previous content. Thanks Vid IQ for this
We used many of these and were able to get 4000 hours of watch time in a little over 3 months after starting our channel (one of our other channels - still growing this one). Contrast that to our first channel that took us 3 years! to get the hour requirement. The reason I keep coming back is because I always learn something new or something old but in a new way. Thank you for all these tips.
👍
Nice said
Well put
J Rockcastle 😊
I hope we all reach our UA-cam goals :)
Hear..hear❤
I hope so too :)

I hope to 💜
Hey Rob, thanks for making this video :) I really appreciate it. I’ll be starting a channel real soon and I found this to be really useful,
Thank you so much for this video! I've started a meditation channel and I've been working so hard on my videos, but the fear of never growing my channel is starting to damper my motivation. I know I have a long way to go both in quality and quantity of my videos but your video has given me hope that if I keep on making content and improving my content that I will be able to grow :)
My husband was able to monetize quite quickly, about 6 months from the 1st video. He happened to fall into some of these tips without realizing, so I know the tips given here are awesome. Evergreen content is so key. We had some of his videos go wild over Christmas out of the blue so that was pretty nice. I'm starting to build my own channel and I'm keeping these tips in mind. Consistency is key, you never know what will hit months down the road. Thanks for the helpful video!
bro, I have a video on my channel that helps to type videos for beginners, watch it
All the best
So what ur telling me is that your lucky? Doesn’t rlly matter how good the video is, UA-cam controls who sees the videos. If you’re lucky then you’ll get popular “CD animation” is a good example of what I’m saying, amazing quality but only 700 subs
So much great information. I look forward to utilizing these tips.
I got monetized already in my dream. Thanks for this content. I won't stop working hard.
Great video! thanks.
Good luck to everyone on getting 4000 hours, you can do it :)
