BE RADICAL
UPDATE: people are asking, so here you go: if you want my exact take on planning out your year for success, I got you with this video: ua-cam.com/video/eBuZ_erh5UU/v-deo.html
The book is called Essentialism, and you can get the audiobook (free!) with my super-dee-dooper custom link here: bit.ly/3v8NCGK
I've been listening to a LOT of books this year, and this one is top tier so far!
You know what Nate? This is EXACTLY what I was needed. From recording to editing, time management and using "time" efficiently as it is the most important resource is what I'm struggling the most.
Hope you will make a video about your time management stuff and how you're scheduling your work etc. That would be a great video to watch and learn for lots of like me who lack of discipline.
Hi, is there another place to get the book for free? As it says the book is not available in my country, south africa.
I really want to get out of the hidden section of UA-cam. 😀 Everyone tells me that my videos are fun and well done. Then why doesn’t the channel grow? 😅
Nate
you’re truly one of the best UA-cam educators/coaches out there
Keep it up bro.
I can see your channel hitting 1 million subs in less than 3 years 👍🏻
hold up nate, i've done vid that are form a nesh and they wore steady on the views, but got a lot more from a vid out side the norm. hows that work
This is honestly the only channel worth watching in the UA-cam growth niche. The rest just regurgitate the same talking points about posting consistently, niching down and making good thumbnails. This is the only channel that consistently digs deeper and comes up with unique and wonderfully presented ideas and thought processes. Thanks for all you do Nate!
This. Most other growth channels just laugh small channels in the face. Vidiq being the worst
I agree. The other channels are good for starting out, but, honestly, I've followed all the basic advice, and it barely helped. Beautiful thumbnails made little to no difference in the performance of my videos, and posting more often actually made my channel do worse! By posting twice as often, the subscribers I was making were halved. Less is more, and Nate focuses more on the content itself, than the algorithm, while still acknowledging that the algorithm DOES put smaller creators at a disadvantage.
yes, the depth and thought process (as well as presentation) is what makes this the only channel of this type that I really watch and look forward to
Don't get me wrong, Nate is good at this. But if this is the best channel, then you're not really looking enough.. Nate usually rehashes the same information again and again, in a different way..
What, like having talent and interesting content?
THE FLATLINING ISN'T JUST A ME THING!? Oh thank god, this video gave a lot of excellent advice, thank ya!
We're all in this together 😭😭
Yeah, same flat line, but in the graph shown here the guy at least stopped at 1.2K.
Yet to see such high numbers in a flatline :D
Sometimes seems that people stopped loving LEGO at all...
Defo not just you.
I thought the same thing! We're all trying our best.
It’s not just you. I always get the second boost to. If I don’t do well on the initial boost I know I still have one boost left. My last video did poorly on both boosts. It’s always very depressing haha
The illustration of marketplace vs small audience interaction is so accurate. People will absolutely join in once others are already there
This confirms my suspicion that that only thing holding me back now is consistency. It really is difficult especially because I get REALLY into my edits, but I've decided to be stupid this year and focus so much more time to my channel. Also, I get quite a few of those "How does this not have more views" comments fairly often, it's super validating every time.
I coming to see your content!! This is a nifty little way to meet other creators 👍🏽
I'm convinced that sometimes in some cases there is someone at youtube doesn't like the channel and puts more restrictions on the channel.
Yes As Franklin D. Roosevelt said. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself ! oR AS Einstein QUOTED the only reason for time is so everything don't happen at once.
Oh my goodness you are probably the ONLY person I've ever seen who actually acknowledges that things are very different for smaller channels. So many people act like we're all the same and if I do what you do I'll get past the slump.
I’m someone that has a large channel at 100k and a small channel stuck at 4.3k and no matter what I do it just doesn’t grow. I feel for anyone trying to build channels now - it’s tough… my 100k channel I started 10yrs ago when it was easier. But my smaller channels that I started in the past year/s is flatlining. There are so many talented ppl out there just not being seen and if seems the lesser talented ppl are getting the views 😂 it’s effed up !
Then come up with something new
Very true
Patience
@@sebastianblackfyreNot really, new is risky.
I had the same thing happen. I used to get 100K views and now it's like 1K views. After 2010, UA-cam Changed their system! It sucks!!!
here's whats currently working for me.
1.) Make good videos - probably will take 2-3 weeks / 8hrs a day , here and there
2.) do that consistently
3.) learn from your mistakes
4.) adjust accordingly -
Ive done these steps for close to a year now and my channel is now slowly just starting to grow.
no other formula -
Hey mate, I've been watching your videos! Good to see you here too, keep it up!
Bro, I watch every single video of yours, and you give me so much hope. I am sitting on ZERO subscribers right now 😂. But as you said, making good quality videos is essential. I'm trying to do the same . But again, finding that balance between quality and quantity really haunts me sometimes.
Also have about a 6-10 videos ready to go. Or just so you're in front and don't need to worry about the next days vid , it's already been made. Life also happens and you're not always available to make more but you've got back up now in your "stash" or whenever you feel like throwing some extra content out there. 😏🤘🏻
Thanks mate :)@@lvmpasi
consistently good is better than occasionally great.@@tonyitis
Wow, my friend, you are literally the only one talking about this. I’m still a very small channel. And yes, the views will go up and then immediately flatline. Sometimes they’ll take off again, and then flatline again… It’s very strange behavior.
Same experience. Today my videos being promoted by the algo. Weird
@@MissLizaYangonMyanmar I’m starting to prefer my slower growing videos better. Because the ones that take off like fire just flatline soon 🤦🏻♂️
Same, the algorithm is strange sometimes
Yes! The flatline!!!
WOWOWOWOW I’m gonna be moving out this summer! Your channel will be so helpful to me 👍🏽
Hey Nate, I've been watching your videos religiously for 2 years and I thought my channel was dead at 5k subs, 10k subs, 30k subs, and even 50k subs. I've pivoted a few times and FINALLY I think I've found which content I can do long term. I even thought my intitial dream was dead so many times that I opened a 2nd channel in a differente language and KILLED it, only for that 2nd channel to stall out at 50k subs. I finally had 2 viral videos in the last 2 months and all that hard work has finally paid off. I'm finally being associated with other big youtubers in my niche, and I now understand that advantage that big youtubers have. It was so HARD, but your videos kept me going. What I've learned is just basically to keep being consistent, and make quality content and your version of success will come. Thanks!
Yap
What's weird is many creators are doing the exact opposite of what gurus are saying and still blowing up their channels. The algorithm is always changing and I think even the viewers are demanding something different of what we've been watching the last 5 years.
I think it's just luck at the end of the day. Some people get 500k views on their first video without even putting a customized thumbnail or much effort into the packaging. Sometimes it's just the timing of when you publish and if the topic tends to hit a certain trend etc.
I know this cos i've seen brilliant thumbs and titles on vids that completely flop for n other reason.
I appreciate your help videos Nate. There's tremendous truth. With that said, when you are a small channel putting your heart, soul and tons of time into growing and making between $1 & $4 per day on UA-cam after being monetized for a period of time, a real job is still necessary to pay the bills. I try to put a portion of 7 days a week into my channel but it's not always realistic and burn out is a real thing. Working so hard on the channel and at the end of the day you've made $1.70 takes the wind out of your sail. I love my channel and believe in it which is the only reason I'm still here after trying for 5 years. I believe at some time it will start growing and I eventually plan on posting 2 or 3 full length videos per week but for now I struggle to post 1 video and maybe a few shorts. Hopefully the channel can survive to the point of real growth. UA-cam sends surveys questioning fairness of large channels vs. Small channels but I have no idea why because they continue doing the same thing.
A lot of great advice! Thank you! I started my YT a little over a year ago, but didn't get semi-serious until last summer... the flatlining and other issues are so exhausting and sometimes very discouraging. I think you truly have to enjoy what you're doing, and do what you want to do and treat it as a hobby more than anything, otherwise if you have greater expectations like wanting to get monetized quickly and maybe get "famous" it is going to kill the whole idea of being a content creator. There are so many small channels I follow that are amazing with very high quality content and I don't understand how they get less thank 1k views.
Good luck to us all ☺
I think the analogy with the farmer stall is very valid. Would you click on a video with 100 views vs one with 100k? People tend to do what others do. Sad reality
Yeah, it's the social proof effect.
Mob psychology and insecurity
I'm one of those early people and so are my viewers and I recognize them for being there all the time.
Tbh i click on the video that has less views. Thats just me though. I can totally see why people would click on whats popular due to “if they watched it it must be the right video on this topic” type of thinking.
I really like finding small channels and hidden gems so i always click on recommended vids with very low views to check them out and usually always drop a comment to help out and encourage the creator if I think there was some effort put in etc.
Thank you for not swearing. It's appreciated, and makes me feel better about watching your videos if my son is around.
The not swearing makes me feel better when *I'm* around. 👍
You ass
2 comments:
1. My channel just hit 1000 subscribers on Friday (at the moment we were driving through ID and I thought of you 😊) and in the ensuing days I have seen so much more love from UA-cam in terms of exposure and growth since hitting that magic number.
2. Your card display is giving me mission flashbacks haha
Congrats 🎉
Nice 👍
do old videos get viewers?
This kind of confirms what I've thought for a while now, the bigger you get - the bigger you get.
Well done on the 1k subs, I'm not far off myself now.
Nice🎉
I had no idea about the upload speeds! No wonder mine take ages... 😅
I've found this all to be super true. The hardest part of being a small channel is getting enough visibility. Once you start building up a small group of "fans," the momentum builds. I'm in the early phases of that and it's been motivating! Thanks for the tips, Nate! :)
Another way Nate's videos help us is by letting us discover other interesting channels in the comments section. Just subbed yours :)
Can you tell me, was the first advice to publish a high-quality video to get views?
Same I uploaded many videos today and one of my video took 1 hrs to upload it was just a 2 min video .I thought something was wrong with my network 😭
Same! It feels like it takes forever!
This was eye-opening. Yes, my 4k videos took 2 hours before, and these days it litterally takes a minute or two to encode. I just thought UA-cam got better. Thank you for the video, as always.
That's just crazy. I would never have known. I always thought my long uploads were the norm.
I'm still a small channel, but, around when I hit the 500 subscriber mark, uploads were suddenly faster - despite the fact that I often find myself posting in different places (I'm a housesitter). I just thought Telus imroved it's internet, lol.
Can you tell me, was the first advice to publish a high-quality video to get views?
I like Nate that you started to give content to really small channels. Nice niche, cool decision. Respect.
I appreciate it so much.
God bless him
Hi Nate. It's 3am right now and I'm awake trying to figure out what I can do to improve my next video. It's been a very rewarding but also frustrating 2 months constantly feeling like I'm doing well, but also knowing that I could do 10x better right now. This last month, I always feel like I can blow up, but during the day while my mind is busy, I just can't figure out how.. until past 12am I rewatch each video and am slowly starting to understand exactly... why it hasn't blown up. I have officially unsubscribed to 90% of the YT channels right now on this particular account so I can focus purely on my work, but your channel is that one awesome channel that I absolutely love. You rock mate! Thanks for the awesome content.
Just a shout out, I started youtube 6 weeks ago and I've been religiously consuming content and focusing on my quality and its working. 2200 views on my video from Sunday before it flatlined with 8% ctr and 60% retention. ❤ thanks for doing this stuff man
Good luck. How many subscribers do u have ?
there is a trick with CTR i found that if my retention and viewer ship is up the more i see people enjoy my content but hard to see the flat-line again.
Congratulations! Keep going. I’m on the same journey. :)
I just started Wednesday haha
Thanks for uploading this. The simplified and friendly way you explain, show what to do, and how to do it helps make the whole frustrating channel growth process less daunting. I'll definitely be watching more of your videos.
That was a great farmers market comparison. I've been very appreciative of my early comment viewer.
I've also seen more small channels on my feed since starting my small channel.
Best of all, my recent video is really outperforming my average, gave me 30 new subscribers, and I'm starting to see those encouraging small channel comments.
The timing on this video really helped boost my confidence. Thanks Nate!
Nate I just love listening to your personality, humour and advice even though I have zero time, zero humour and zero personality to make my channel grow. Your point about "acknowledging to your audience that your channel is small" resulting in "viewers [eagerly] expecting you to be there with your presence" (7:25) is beyond profound and I'll keep that point on the backburner for "one day when I have time for another video". I'm sure I won't easily find that insight out there. Thanks for inspiring as you often do, that's why I make the exception and continue to sucscribe to your channel.
This is the most helpful creator video ive ever seen! THANK YOU!! i was really feeling frustrated and hurt from my lack of success!
I realize now that im just a small channel. It gives me hope!
Thanks... i subbed
If you are reading this comment, don't worry your channel is going to get better we all got this!
That's the truth!!
Thanks!
Nice to know we're not the only ones who flatline on UA-cam. Lots of work to stay alive.
Everything you mentioned about the analytics of a video happens to mine all the time. I get 200-400 views and the impressions practically disappear. My most viewed video of mine got about 145K impressions in 15 days, gave me the most subs, then UA-cam practically killed all the impressions fast. I was like saying, What the heck UA-cam. At least I have about 10 videos that have more than 1K views, but they go flatline too. Ugh
I just keep making more videos, and maybe 1 or 2 will go viral someday.
Keep up the good work Nate!!! I’m glad I sub to you for learning more information.
I can’t wait to get the option to test different thumbnails A/B/C. I’m still waiting. The big channel’s get it I bet.
You'll be so pleased to know you showed up on my feed and I've not seen you before Nate.
I'm so glad you have found you and your channel :)
I needed this one. 😊
How often I hear - why is your channel so small - this deserves more views - you will be as big as them someday.
Same here🙏, wishing you the best🙌!
Booped the thumbs up- dude for the record, I have been on a fallout 4 binge using UA-cam as a search engine for specific tasks and you are hundred percent on target. My home feed is a ton of 15-100 view smaller channels or very closely related topics.
I love this channel. It helped me change the direction of my own into a more business centric one. I can’t be the only creator that struggles with “do I upload it all onto one channel” or “ I should have a channel dedicated to these different presentation styles of me” 😅
Thank you for the tips! After 3 years, I think we have barely hitting the "presence" with our small community and its wonderful to see that those that love our content are always eager to see what what comedic craziness we come up with! Need to look more into the "blind spots" Best of blessings! 🙌
On that small channel grind right now, thank you for the advice! It’s not easy and demotivating sometimes. Little by little quality and consistency win the day!
Hey Nate, I’m just starting out and I was using your channel for a lot of guidelines, and I just wanted to say I’m getting a lot of growth recently because of it. Thanks for all your work!
His channel is super helpful! Props on the growth!
Already watched this a few times over. It is full of very good info! Very important for us small channels. Thank you, Nate! Love how you snuck in the "boop" this time!
Sounds like some good advice. I subscribed. My channel does have some issues.
Can you tell me, was the first advice to publish a high-quality video to get views?
This was one of the best explainer videos walking through “small channel” rules versus “big channel” rules. Thank you for sharing!
I second this!
This is incredibly helpful, thank you. As a smaller channel I've noticed the flatlining, too. Your description of blind spots and ideas or info you're not aware of yet helps me appreciate it's not just because my content sucks 😅. Will apply what you've shared here and have subscribed.
This video is amazing and on spot. "Thank you for making this video, this video deserves way more view than it has!"
Everything you've said is so true! 🙏🙏 Great video - my channel didn't start to pick up until I really focused down on my niche and allowed the algo to figure out what to do with me.
Thank you! I've been watching that flatline wondering how to change it, thinking I'm the only one dealing with it. Knowing others have the same struggles makes it easier to keep going. Thank you again for a great video!
Nate, I watched a ton of videos on YT Algo and I came across you on my recommended.
This is one of those rare videos that I feel FINALLY giving me INSIDER INFORMATION. Some of this info is so new to me that I found myself rewinding just to let concepts sink in.
You’re brilliant, your minimal editing and music DOES NOT bother me at all.
You truly deserve more views, I hope you can roast a video I’m making when I’m done with it.
Hi @HeadBangerExtreme! That’s really nice of you to share that. Means a lot, thank you 🙏
Thank you! I knew it, and I’m so glad you got to see data that proves it. And thank you for giving us direction and ideas to focus on. This is by far the BEST video I have seen that applies to me right where I am. I am excited to see the video you are working on next.
I hit a massive spike on a video and experienced the flatline too. I'm glad I'm not alone, but I hope my channel can continue the pace I was given. Great video Nate! Thank you for your tips.
on the way to get out of the small channel life! Thanks for all Nate!
Nate that's the *BEST* and smoothest integration of "boop the like button" that I've seen on your videos thus far. 😅 Very nice! 🎉
😂
So interesting! It’s amazing how helpful your videos are. I usually stay up till midnight to watch you but fell asleep last night 😂
Thank you. As a small channel who is trying to get a message out to the world, this was helpful. Continue making videos, get outside opinions, and keep being authentic. Sounds like usable tips to me.
Amazing insights. When I feel lost in my YT journey, I come here for clarity and peace of mind. Thank you!
I have wondered about this impressions thing before. Right now, it feels like my channel is starting to break out of that "testing spike" period. My most recent video is my best performing and I've been continuously getting impressions for the past few days (sitting at about 112k right now). Curious to see how the next video does and what the impressions are like then.
Thanks, @ThatNateBlack for all the useful videos!
I typically have come to expect clickbait on this topic, but this was all really good and well put. Made me laugh with the outtakes too.
My god hearing that the spike into flatline is mostly a 'small channel symptom' is so reassuring. I always thought UA-cam was finally pushing my content to new audiences but they just didn't like it so UA-cam stopped showing it.
Although lately pretty much all my videos get that spike instead of just a few.
Great video as always Nate. Really the biggest takeaway for me in this video is to produce more (quality) content. Give UA-cam more to play with.
This is soooo helpful! Thanks! Growing my channel has been a slow slog....I appreciate your information to help people like me stay sane and focused while trying to stay in the game and grow.
I booped the like before you told me to! As others have said, this seems like the only channel that goes a bit deeper. I guess the algorithm is getting to know ME better now😎
Wow this was informative! From a small channel UA-camr looking to grow and share my education and content within my niche this was exactly what needed to see to shine light on the issue. Thanks for posting 👍🏻
Howdy howdy Nate.
Just started my channel a bit back and I feel growth is just along the margins. I have a good feeling about this. My only issue, is that like you mentioned in the beginning of the video, the impressions suddenly stop on videos. For no apparent reason. My question would be how to have more consistent impressions, and I know A LOT of other creators will relate.
I would love to have my channel roasted haha, it's been a dream of mine throughout my 5 different channels on yt. I love your videos man, keep going no matter what. And to let you know, your new style (the long curly hair is amazing) and the story telling format of making these videos is BRILLIANT. Never skipped your videos, ever. You, my friend, are a good man.
My impressions dropped by sixty percent this month! I thought people just weren't interested in my content, but this means UA-cam isn't even showing it to them in the first place. I also need advice on this, as it's not one of the analytics which is discussed as much...despite the fact that, if it tanks, everything else does as well.
@@otherworldlyfiction Absolutely. Couldn't agree more. Impressions tank so fast you have no idea it's coming and there's not really a way to overcome it. Will be an interesting video if he does see the comment. You have a pretty cool channel btw otherwordlyfiction, really impressive and mad respect.
@@armageddonslice Thank you. That means a lot.
I always thought that processing time depends on the codec/container you export your video in. Interesting.
Thank you, it's about time someone talks about this, Almost all of the videos about small channel advice on UA-cam are NOT for small channels! So frustrating.
So thank you. I'm in small channel hell right now but I hope that will all the advice I got from you and few others I will get out.
Love ya Nate. Appreciate your help. Been watching you since my channels inception a year ago and I definitely attribute a percentage of my growth to your tips
Third! I love your channel.
I don’t think of it being getting stuck, statistically, smaller channel probably makes up most of the UA-cam channels, and it is okay being small, as long as you are doing what you enjoy, it doesn’t have to be big.
It depends on what you want out of Yotube. I remained and am still small on the big scale of things. At the beginning when you do it for fun it's OK to be small. But then as you realise the time it takes (huuuge amounts of times to run a channel) and personal investment it takes then you want to justify all that by growing up
My biggest takeaway is, creating focused data (aka more vids) at the highest level you’re are capable of. You’ve definitely made me a believer in concept that fewer, but higher quality content, is better then more content created at a lower quality. As always, great content Nate👍.
Thank you for the insight, love the getting yourself out of the “creation bubble” analogy. 9:20 look forward to learning more from you.
Finally some clarity and an honest approach. Very refreshing to hear you say the truth! I am going to implement these suggestions. Thank you Nate👍🏽🎁
Thank you again Nate!
I was wondering what is considered a "small channel" now. I guess it depends a lot on the niche.
What I can say is that ever since I got to 20k many more people than before have come knocking at my door for Collab, sponsorships and whatnot. I really cannot imagine what it's like for people with hundreds of thousands or with millions of subs and views 😱
And by the way, just to follow one of your points, I can't understand why your channel doesn't get more views/subs 😁
as my understand, number of subscriber is used to consider "small or big channel"
We're only in the intro and I'm just like, THANK YOU! So many channels act like the playing field regardless of channel size and it's just not.
Thanks for the video. You’re the only authentic UA-cam tut guy around. Vidiq channel just keep printing out the same videos that do nothing to help.
Finally a creator channel confirming what I've been saying all along (and which fir instance VIDIQ keeps denying, even laughing me in the face about it).
I've been uploading for two years now, 400 quality videos/shorts, providing as much data to the algorithm as I'm capable of... People love my content, likes, subs, very few dislikes and Ive had many comments on why the channel isn't bigger and how everyone should be seeing the content.... But the algorithm still ignores the channel... And even worse, it keeps testing it with the wrong audience... middle-aged males do not want to see our teenage girl vlogs (and the few that do, we don't want as an audience).
With 400 videos, nearly 2.5k subs the algorithm should know better... but it doesn't :(
Loved the whole card concept to help explain this. The flat line is really frustrating I admit, however, YT definitely does continue to push. I have many videos that didn't begin really taking off untill months and in some even years later. Also love the roast videos Nate keep them coming!
Shows what I know. I thought flatlining was normal, and that only "viral" videos would be pushed out, while older videos were shelved to make room for those that were new.
You are spot on here. Not enough data to evaluate. I think I know my problems just feel like I need to change my genre and I find that hard to do because I absolutely love making my videos. I just know they aren't as good as the bigger channels. Lighting, sound, editing, but it's just me so I just keep plugging away. Thanks Nate I appreciate the information.
Hey Nate. You’re 100% correct. I’ve never heard the whole Position concept and your insight really resonated with me and gaining a better understanding of how I should be developing my approach to planning my videos. For most I am a teacher but for one niche/pillar, I’m more a commentator or hero. Much appreciation for the insight! I’ve got 278 subs in my first 7+ months of my journey. I’ll keep you posted as my journey continues!
Hey Nate, genuine question which I know is not to do with the channel but I don’t know what to do because I’ve never done this before a singer who has died a year ago Bobby Caldwell. His channel has recently got hacked and it’s been taken over now literally as we speakby scammers. As he is dead, I don’t want to report the channel because the channel has no one to put the channel back if he dies but I don’t know I have reported the individual live streams but should I report the channel as well? Also I am a very tiny channel so this will be very interesting to me and I long to see your advice.
I’ve been dealing with a lot of deaths here lately, and a family member asked me if UA-cam would delete my channel or not. I honestly have no clue, but it does have me wondering. I couldn’t imagine having my channel hacked after I’m gone. My channel and memories would be one place my family could go to help them heal. As sad as that possibility is, I’m going to have to research that now! It would suck seeing a channel get deleted or taken down over something like that. Hopefully, you get your answer!
@@JennifersTruckingAdventures apparently UA-cam does not delete channels if they have videos on them. However, my fear is that because he has now been hacked that because he can’t put the channel back it will go and be gone unless he’s got a company to do it for him, which he probably does.
Thanks nate, for being here!
Thank YOU for being here too!
Thanks for breaking down the channel growth potential. My channel is very new and this video was helpful to understanding what the algorithm is doing or not doing!
This is honestly the most informative "youtube growth" video I've ever seen.
What a video! Love your general way of explaining how to progress in general but this video really opened my eyes to other things I need to try as a new(ISH) vlog!
Thanks for this. It helped me see that I am on the right track with my presence. My "regular" job and responsibilities have limited the amount of content that I can post, but at least I know I'm making a good impact (for viewers and growth) with what I am putting out.
I so appreciate this video. It helps me feel like I’m not going crazy when things like spikes followed by sudden flatlines in impressions happen. And it’s so helpful to know that by continuing to grind, get better and put out the best content I can, I’ll eventually find my way out. I needed that reminder today!
Thanks a bunch Bro. I have to positively emphasize that you did not simply say "Upload videos on a daily basis to feed the algorithm with data", but also mentioned the importance of high-quality content, as UA-cam doesn't care about how many videos you upload within a given period of time, but rather focusses on the audience's satisfaction with your content. But you pointed out what I already expected, and heard from other UA-camrs: It is about the lack of data the algorithm can work with. And indeed, UA-cam is still a great chance to build a business, starting with organic traffic first, but it is way harder than in the beginning, before the platform was flooded by trillions of videos, and millions following up each and every day. Wow... the comment is longer than expected, I should head back to work. But I could not help myself but watch your video first.
Oh, first time I have been semi early to your video! Anyway, love your content and I have learnt so much. Out of all the UA-cam gurus you are one of the best 👍
It takes 3 hours + to unload and process my videos.
Excellent info! Thank you Nate for taking the time to put in the minor details.
Some seriously good advice here. I've seen that testing mode from the algorithm and it's very frustrating. But it helps to be able to step back and see a bigger picture going on. Still sucks being a little fish in a big pond, but that feels different to just thinking nobody likes your content!
As high a quality as you can, but one should NOT fear 1080p or 1480p or even 2k , a lot of people don't have the greatest cell phones poor people don't care ... ... 360 vids are super fast and YT needs them 1080p
This guy is full of it!
Your content is top notch , simple , straight to the point, funny and most importantly really helpful! I have watched tons of videos on how to grow a channel on YT since I started this one but your video differentiates a lot from the others in a great way! 🙌
UA-cam has made it so that you “HAVE” to make content everyday practically and become a shell of yourself in order to survive.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Heard that was a myth.
It’s sad really.
Which sucks for me because I make sports history video essays that take weeks to script, edit etc. And I also work in the merchant navy so I have enforced breaks...
Feels like people who slop careless stuff on everyday will have more success.
@@Inveterate-introvert Sadly yes…
Small channel hell is a great place to test ideas and try new things. Being a small channel can be fun. If you have no viewers, you don’t need to pander to an audience. You do what you want.
Love this practical and empowering video. And so validating that small channel behavior really is a thing!
This video just blew my mind. Super encouraging to know that some of my frustrations this past year are shared with many others. Thanks for your work on this!
I just killed a viral video. Wrong audience. I'm a small but growing channel. the algo is hit and miss with me. I am definitely in a niche audience. And I'm getting the thank you for making awesome videos on Myanmar! I will keep grinding and I know it will go off. i got monetized in under 6months so I know I'm on the right path. the algo is so weird. i just ignore it. I have a two year time frame for this. I want to give Myanmar a gift and I'm not focused on money as I have a job
First responder!! 🎉🎉😁😁
Second responder! 😅
One if my first videos to get 1k+ views flatlined and i was SO CONFUSED. I had old channel with more subs that never did that, and i looked everywhere for an answer. Now i finally know it's a common thing among small channels thanks to this video!
Finally, great advices about small channels. Thank you 😊
Hard to explain but your endings make me anxious. You just drop out of existence when i think there’s more. I know that s your method but still makes me anxious. I know im probably the odd one 😅
Sorry bout that! They are working well for me, but I totally get where you’re coming from
@@ThatNateBlack i know thats why i said im prob the odd one. I’m sure it doesn’t bother anyone else lol. I did try ending my own videos this way but couldnt do it ✌🏻
I create YT shorts n I figured out the UA-cam algorithm. 🎉🎉🎉your videos has helped me hack the algorithm.
thanks for making your videos Nate. As a new creator we find them extremely helpful. I say we because my husband is the one who edits the videos and i film and create the content. We find ourselves returning to view your videos more than just once to update ourselves on how to improve.
I love your manner of presentation! Funny and down-to-earth, yet insightful and quite helpful. Thanks! Also, the card visualization is working really well.
How funny you mention dropping everything else that is not in your focus. I recently dropped Facebook. I Had my personal Facebook account deleted because it is a time waster and drama-filled. Then I a new blank profile ( turned off the notifications as well) and made a page for my UA-cam channel which is my laser focus. It has been a game-changer for me.
This was a very helpful video! Thank you. Finding ways to grow is one of the main keys to more visibility, but I haven’t heard any other channels talk about this
Thank you. I always enjoy watching your tips. I've been steadily posting 1 video a week for a while now and am starting to get a little more visibility!
