This right here is what I need on a very early Friday morning as I head out to my 8 to 9 while thinking about my exit plan. The goal is to figure out a unique strategy, get better in my niche and grow bit by bit. Thank you for all these tips.
Kila la heri dada 🇰🇪
Nime subscribe 👏👏👏
👊🏾👊🏾
I had similar thoughts as I'm starting two weeks of working. Thank you for the tips.
Stumbled across your channel a couple of months ago and have been noting down all your tips re: channel growth. In December 2023, my channel had 500 subs, at which time I made a conscious switch to change my approach and try to provide more high value educational content in my photography niche. Now I am closing in on 10,000 subs. Appreciate all your advice ✊
Thanks Sean
High Value AND HIGH QUALITY video right here.
Appreciate you! What helped the most in this one?
Roberto.
Talking about educational content, nobody beats you with your recipe, within your niche.
As always excellent content.
I appreciate that!
You are a LEGEND ROBERTO! I think it is impotent to HAVE FUN! Cheers from Western Australia
Appreciate you! Notification squad!!
totally!
It took me over 8 years and 500 of the wrong videos to find my niche but man now that I have the steam train is rollin baby!🎉
👊🏾👊🏾
*❤I must confess that your content has helped me grow my chess channel from scratch and safeguard it from scammers. Thank you Roberto*
Great to hear!
And safeguard it from scammers? I need that! (which is crazy for as small as my channel is now)
Just the ticket!! Thanks for this one Roberto…👊🏻 I needed it.
Good it helps
Always enjoy the content bro. Working on growing our channel and coming here is a good place to start!
I'm not necessarily new, but I have lot's to learn on UA-cam still. I love the idea of writing down 'impossible ideas'--I think that's where I'm missing the mark. You just made me realize another reason why biggest video so far performed so well--I leveraged experiences very few creators had or could replicate (actually working with Pinterest as a creator) to back up my points. Time to look more into my unfair advantages and **actually** use them 😂
👊🏾👊🏾
This video is one of the best videos I’ve seen on this topic by far. Great video
Wow, thanks!
I really appreciate how you ask questions to get one to think about what they want. Cuz it’s easy to look at the bigger UA-camrs and want what they have, but not everyone has those experiences. There’s a lot of space in UA-cam if you make the effort like you mentioned. There’s an interview on Digital Spaghetti with Gawx that is a great example of what results from high effort
Thanks 🙏🏾
The value this channel give is incredible ! Remember me i'll be back at 100K ! Thank you
Get at it!!!
Good beginner tips that are always worth saying again, even to remind the rest of us
Glad you think so!
As an education content creator this provided so much guidance and inspiration
What helped the most?
@@RobertoBlake sharing information relevant for education channels. here are just a few of the notes that I took:
- Create high effort content that is hard to replicate
- Create social proof
- Education content: Very good hook at beginning of video, make sure promise is delivered, people can easily understand, keep delivering value, bring up things that they haven’t heard before or expect
- Education channels fall when they clickbait and stop serving the audience. Don’t serve the algorithm. Don’t be disingenuous
- Create high value content 2 - 3 videos a week
Have hundreds of evergreen videos
Honestly Roberto, this is some of the best advice I have heard regarding matching passion with competence to an extent that others can't easily match. It's making me completely rethink my channel strategy and what I, uniquely can bring, yet still take an interest in. I've been following you for years, first time commenting, and I so love your work and support for creators. Angela
You’ve always got the nuggets of advice I’m looking for!
Appreciate you!!!
thankyou this was great i’ll practice these things definitely working on my channel
Needed this video ! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
SOLID. Thank you for awesome content over the years!
Smart man. Thank you sir
You're welcome
Appreciate the guide. I accept the challenge. Stay great at what you do!
Awesome, thank you!
6 and a half years studying Roberto’s work and it’s all true!
👊🏾👊🏾
Was truly great and took lots of notes. Now to sit down and let the ideas sink into then implement them. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, again, for great information.
Thanks for watching
Great video. Thanks. I’ll watch again and agin till its second nature.
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great content, thanks man!
Glad you liked it! What helped the most?
This are great tips esp for us new channels. Thx
Really need this thank you 🙏🏽
Glad it was helpful!
Great and valuable video, as always!
Glad you enjoyed it
YOU ARE BRILLIANT!
Always great advice. Thanks, Roberto, for sharing your knowledge and wisdom for Novist like me to gain an understanding to become better at creating content for my community. We appreciate you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you guy for the great video 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching!
Love the simpler and cleaner edits. I've trying to tell someone I know this advice, I think her scripts and what she writes gives her an unfair advantage but she thinks spending 10 hours on flashy videos are whats she's missing. Yet I believe those vids were popular because they have a good idea and script that flows nicely, and the editing is just extra.
I agree. Over editing is overrated…
Hi, I just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to viewing this great information you are sharing. Thank you 😊
That first point is big, essentially because more creative.
More than most realize
This was some great info! I’m going to try these steps out, consistency is key!🔥
Glad it was helpful!
I like the idea of a Destination Channel! Thanks Roberto
Glad to hear it!
😊 High value content....Good tips!
Glad you think so!
Wow this video has great value for sure
What was the most helpful part?
Your videos have helped me tremendously. Thanks fam.
Glad to hear it. What helped the most
@@RobertoBlake The most important information you taught me was to build an email list. Now I'm using a Faceless UA-cam channel to collect leads. Thank you.
This is great advice! Each video I make, I try to improve one thing in terms of video/audio/editing, but my focus is trying to effectively get my ideas across for learning and motivation. The long form content takes a lot of work, but even on videos with low views, the responses from those of helps makes me feel like the work I'm putting in and slowly improving is worth it.
I think the biggest challenge for me is finding time to make more than 2 videos per month due to family, work, and then my self-learning (self-learning is what I use on the channel).
Family and work will always come first... I'll just need to get better at how I make the videos. I'm still new to this, but really really enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing Roberto Blake I appreciate you, now off to working on my videos
Glad to help
@@RobertoBlake you are welcome
Thanks 🎉
No problem
3:14 I, and I am sure many others would as well, love for you to make tech videos again. 📱 You could easily tie this into your educational theme by telling creators how to use them for channel growth and stuff. 💡
11:00 Very true and real about that, and I am glad that you do not strictly make what people want to watch, or they really would never learn all what they need to know. 👏🏾
Throughout this video there were 2 words that were repeatedly used: High Value. 💎
Maybe
Thank you ,I will need help I just wanted to check it out
! I’m busy right now. But I’ll
Be back to check you out
✨🙏🏽
Thanks
very informative content
Glad you liked it
I think the hard part is getting a clear example of what is value. Value keeps being the current buzz word that is very vague and not specific.
How do you know you are delivering on value quickly? When we do a will it start video showing it start too soon causes audience to leave.
I defined it clearly in the video
@RobertoBlake yeah I wrote a ton of notes for this section. I am a little hard of understanding, so I am hoping my partner I do youtube with gets it. I appreciate the content thought for sure. Thank you
I took notes. Thanks, Roberto. I still have a lot of work to do to get better. :)
Keep it up
@@RobertoBlake thanks bro 😊
I'm definitely stuck in the "over editing" stage of the game. Gotta shake it up.
Yep it’s a thing
One of a struggles of having an educational channel is watching other channel getting way more views by sharing misinformation. For example, as a psychologist I promote real psychology based on research but I see plenty of popular channels just posting "psychology facts" that are just false...
Consider how you approach packaging
@@RobertoBlake Any specific advice on that?
High effort, highly value, high quality here. ✋️
Thank you 🙌
you make awesome videos
Glad you like them!
Thoughts & Prayers to all Audio guys who are having fits of spasms, just now, seeing a SM7b used as a shotgun mic.
😆
I talk with my hands so I can’t give it right up on me
Woo-hoo! I posted the 7th comment! 🎉
🎉
This comment section is inspiring 😊
It really is!
Brilliant opening !!! We just show our pet Guinea Pigs on UA-cam - they are the Stars ! Gradual improvement on how we present the footage. Minimal editing as well.
We kind of think that anyone who wants pets, but doesn't have the time/money/space - might just be happy to watch a relaxing and informative Channel......like ours (is the plan). It's a real niche what we do.
Would be fascinated to know your thoughts on Pet/Animal Channels - we do our channel with enthusiasm, it's not a business. Thank you Roberto - and yes, I have your book. It's really good indeed and full of excellent advice.
At some point I might just do a stream where I cover the -15 UA-cam categories and how to succeed in each of them.
For an animal/pet channel I would focus nearly all my energy into the idea/topic and into adorable thumbnails and I would research what has 100K likes on Instagram and start borrowing aesthetic choices from that.
I would also be posting daily UA-cam shorts when it comes to pets/animals. I would be thinking it out and batch recording a lot of that.
I would also be making compilations.
@@RobertoBlake that would be great 👍 we have 5 years worth of effectively ’Shorts’ - so that’s been a huge help to attract numbers - but ultimately you’ve got to create long-form content for the hours 👌
Would be fascinated by your 15 category opinion & thoughts 👏👏 can’t wait for that. Thank you.
Your additional points are awesome 👍👍 I’m screenshoting that onto my phone 🥳 (we have an almost 6 million viewed Reel on instagram 👌 bit like the spaghetti scene in ‘Lady and the Tramp’ - that’s amazing…..it’s mother and daughter though!!)
I do post up 6 Shorts a day - we have plenty of quick content over the past 5 years - pulls in approx 10-15 Subscribers a day & I answer every Comment.
Thank you for your time - you are awesome 🤩
To fair the hitman series took off because of MR beast video. UA-cam recommended the hit man series because the videos were similar
The creator didn’t intend to train high jack traffic, but it was an unintentional accident that made him take off
trend jacking is a great strategy.
What a nice vedio
Thanks
Thanks Roberto...I want to do animation but I keep thinking negatively about whether youtube will stay as this money tree hub for us to try and feast on, it is us technically creating a business on top of a business so there is a dependence factor or am I overthinking this? Anyone feel free to slap me with some logic
Xactly!! If we educators give ppl just what they want, they won't grow! Blending WANTS & NEEDS is a tightrope walk ;) Q: @RobertoBlake By "quality", do you mean quality of editing, video shooting, and resolution? Or do you mean quality of content? (what we teach)
The “quality of what we teach/do” is what keep calling VALUE. And then production, performance, personality is what I refer to as “quality”
i just found out the mistake i'm making is playing different games it should be one game or same genre
Indeed
My UA-cam views went from 2k to 500 to 200 to 30 views I just want to get it back where it was
What happened?
been stuck at 75 subs for a month now…
Consider putting more thought into your ideas
Hello there how’s it going? I don’t even have a play button yet because I’m not close to the number to have in my first one yet and I really don’t know how to do thumbnails or like I got other people do I’m still like a new UA-cam person on here Only have about 2000 right now and I don’t have those cool camera or computers or anything like that that other people know how to do videos with and I really don’t have anyone to help me do my videos and I have a lot of different sort of content on here because I try to do a little bit of everything on here but yeah, I feel like I’ve been trying to gain more followers to scribers on here though
You’re too focused on what you don’t have
@@RobertoBlake thanks very much Robert I very much appreciate your response and feedback
To come up with unique & challenging ideas is very tough in the blog special needs children niche.
Then take a twist on a popular but known topic
@@RobertoBlake Thanks for responding!!!
mrbreast just pass t series
Yep 👍🏾
