      I currently have 337, but it's going to be decreasing because I created my channel July 21, 2022. How can I make it go up faster as it begins to go down? I have 912 subscribers though I almost have that part done to get monetized. I haven't seen the new monetization show up on my earn page yet.

    Dang, this video's got me pumped up to put these strategies to work! Selecting a niche and consistently delivering value, that's what it's all about! It reminds me of how boost app social helped me amp up my ig and tiktok game. It's crazy how such tools make your job so much easier.

    I kind of switched gears with my channel. I'm at a point in my life where I can't focus on making content like I used to (the amount of time I spent making videos just wasn't worth the results I was getting) I went from making edgy, uncensored gaming comedy videos to Anime AMVs. I feel as though the last couple AMVs I made are really high quality, but the views lack significantly. Do you guys have any advice on how to advertise a high-quality video that you feel should have more views?

    I think that today is lot easier to get monetized (especially if you use tools like Famester Social or anything similar). For me it wouldn't be possible to get monetized if I didn't find out about this tool, and it really helped me to get over 1000 subs requirement on my second channel. I needed only like a week max, can't remember correctly. After that it's just a walk in the park.

      I can totally relate to that. I'm in a similar boat as an all-rounder in the gaming niche. I enjoy discussing gaming news with others, but I don't want to limit myself to a specific genre. While everyone seems to be emphasizing the importance of narrowing content to a specific niche within a niche, I want to swim against the current and do my own thing. I feel the most confident and comfortable that way.
