    This is why so many creators get upset. UA-cam really doesn't do anything to promote smaller creators. Great video as always

    • @NickNimmin
      @NickNimmin  4 роки тому +51

      Promotion works the same for channels of any size. You put out a video that people want to watch and UA-cam will put it in front of those people it thinks would like to watch a video like that. How the audience responds determines how far it gets promoted.

    • @Matt_escape
      @Matt_escape 4 роки тому +29

      I agree with this. UA-cam algorithm is too quick to dismiss a new video as trash and puts it in like the 10th page of the search results. Each search you do it’s always the same 4 videos that come up first.

    • @Alex_Short
      @Alex_Short 4 роки тому +9

      @@NickNimmin I think he is talking about numbers. We have few numbers of big channels which taking out audiences time. Also we have large numbers of small channels which are too taking our time of audience. Since bigger channels are promoted with home and suggested smaller channels don't have this. They can have this home and suggested but before they need to compete with 1000 of others small channels and with big channels that already took time of audience. And the time is currency we all compete.
      The main problem of small is time already spended and audience tired of category which they competing. Any ideas on that or will keep to yourself?

      Success is not an overnight process, unless there is a ton of luck involved. But even if you do get lucky with one video and it goes viral, you’re not guaranteed that your channel will go viral. And that’s speaking from experience. My channel launched in Jan, this year. I’ve got over 1 million views on my channel, but only a bit over 4K subs. And that’s not me bragging or indicating that I’m not happy with where I’m at. I’m just using my channel as an example that it takes time and effort to grow. The intent, I believe for every small youtuber, is to create content that people are going to engage with. The more engagement you get, the more your videos will get promoted across the platform. If you see that your content is not getting engagement, then you may want to look at some of the reasons why it is not, and try tweaking a bit. It’s the small steps that lead to big success. Sure, some of the bigger channels may have started at a time when the algorithm wasn’t as detailed, and the rules may have changed, but they still need to create content that gets engagement as well in order to remain successful.
      And to be brutally honest, don’t worry about comparing yourself to bigger channels, unless it’s to inspire you, and/or to help your channel grow. Focus on your content, remaining consistent, and staying positive.
      Much success to you!

    "Respect the Audience's time" is my guiding principle in making entertaining content. To me, it means cut out redundant, off topic, boring parts of the video and only offer the best parts. I think you touch on a similar idea in a bunch of your points

    Having a niche actually hurt our channel so on the fence about that. Though recently we did at least branch off our music, and women's beauty/ lifestyle stuff to separate channels respectively. Music has done great. So true certain milestones like first day of school viewers unless they already have a vested interest in your family could care less. Save it for Instagram and Facebook.

    I’m starting out super rough… never made a video until March or April. Us newbies do take a lot of influence from creators we watch, and that can make them be lost in the abyss. My best advice right now is just start recording and begin the learning process. The people will come in time. My videos suck, but they get better each time I try again. It’s a fun journey so far and I think that is the most important thing. I wish you all the best of luck. Stay UNIQUE and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

    Interesting discussion on finding your niche. We premised Airailimages on an observation we made over many years: aviation enthusiasts are often also railfans; train buffs also like airplanes. Hence, Airailimages. We are growing, but seem to have hit a post-lockdown slowing down period. Aviation videos tend to get more views more quickly, but the most-viewed video on our channel, at more than 9 million views, is a train video. We have noticed more and more channels are offering both planes and trains... Hey, thanks for making thought-provoking videos for content creators.

This gives me some confidence that we're not doing things totally incorrectly. :)

(Which I rebranded from my original channel “baby swimmer maxwell” after going viral with 2x 3 mill view videos and then discovering my path as a creator realizing the mistakes I made on my 1st channel that had no clear direction.
    Foundation is laid, content is solid, kids are cute, family dynamic is great on screen and my filming and editing are on point, sprinkle in the magic touch from your content to solidify the rest. I see great things, from starting fresh a month ago!
    I’ll be watching tons of your video to keep my YT game stronger than ever before! Thanks Nick.

  • @Doublepulse
    @Doublepulse 4 роки тому +29

    One of the other things I've recently learned as a creator and even as an artist (because lot of my content fits a particular narrative) is starting off strong with what you enjoy and what you are good at doing. Lot of people like you said, start off not knowing what they want, so they try looking for the next best thing or do something they think will enjoy, but doesn't get them the result they were looking for, which in turn will cause you to burn out faster.
    I had to take a step back and look at what I enjoy doing before I started video creating, and then apply that to my videos. People will gravitate towards your content better when they know you are genuine about what you do. Combine that with being an interesting person that others will like to watch, and the audience will find its place.
    Great video, Nick!

    When I hear long intros that don’t pertain to what I clicked for I usually fast forward or look elsewhere. Thanks for your wisdom.

    There are three types of viewers.
    *The one who keeps scrolling up to the subscribe button and down to the comments*
    *The one who skips through the whole video*
    *The one who has an attention span of a 5-year-old*

    Dude, I’m not saying im anywhere near knowing what im doing. But I truly appreciate being able to come and regurgitate the info you’ve put out over and over while im just simply putting the work in to figure it out dude.
    It’s really useful. Trying and coming back to figure out how to dial in and make things work is perfect.
    Thanks man.
