    I took a look at your channel and realized you've only posted 33 videos in 2 years. I may be wrong but that tells me you've not been consistent enough. 50 videos is the target for the algorithm to start noticing you. Just keep creating and that time will come. It's seems like the time is here so keep going. All the best.

    • @mariaogar6969

      Yes, you're very correct. Consistency matters alot when it comes to channel growth, my channel is 6 month old and i got over 30 videos and 70 shorts, and there are people who have done even more within this period and it paid off.

    Hello, my name is Rashon Junior. And I am the creator of the podcast tagged to my account. I wanted to clarify several things with you because I have been on UA-cam for just a year and a few months now, and I believe I have insight that might be able to help.
    The first thing to remember is that UA-camrs, and I am referring now to persons who are now established, 1 million plus subscribers etc, come from a completely different time. When UA-cam started getting traction I was still in high school. 07-08 years and some few years before. That being said, the algorithm back then was very different. In fact some would say it rarely intervened in content. The metrics for a videos success back then was contingent on likes and views. That being said, there have been many creators who have used that metric to grow their UA-cam channels. Not all, but. many did cheat to get likes and views from persons so that the formula would push their content. UA-cam was also less corporate at the time, meaning GOOGLE was not involved in UA-cam etc.
    The creators back then that have made it, creators, as in, not a person that has one video that goes viral. That is not a creator. A creator is someone, who has a certified niche, that they follow on their channel weekly, OR REGULARLY to the point where they develop and audience, a fan base and a following that will support them. UA-cam is 50% approach, 50% realism. The way you approach UA-cam NOW has to adjust with the way UA-cam IS NOW versus how it was back then ! Viral videos, based on research are not what you want. Why? Because viral just means one video performed well, people liked it, watched it and now your forever forgotten, it's like a lighthouse, round and round we go. A niche, a steady content flow guarantees you will find a TARGET AUDIENCE. If you stay patient, and you continue to follow that rhythm, your page will succeed OVER TIME!
    Having quick success isn't all it is hyped up to be. As you grow on your channel, keep in mind you are growing with real actual people. So a variety of things will affect how fast you grow, when you grow, and who you will grow with. As an example, I am going to use my channel.
    It was created last year. I started at 0 subscribers. Currently I have 566. I cover all school news, and movie reviews. That's my niche.
    My friend started a gaming channel last year a month after me. He games for his niche, but he does not talk, and he does not show himself. He only has 393 subscribers.
    The point, every channel grows at the effort YOU put into it. People are not easily fooled. They know what a hardworking channel looks like, versus one that just wants quick shot fame. FOCUS NOT ON THE SUCCESS OF UA-cam BUT THE PEOPLE. That was where UA-cam started. It was a video share service FOR PEOPLE. That principle may be blanketed under so many aspects of the network today. But it still is the foundation of why people come to UA-cam. Therefore as REAL CREATORS we FOCUS ON THE PEOPLE. Each Individual, and how your channel can best serve their needs.
    Generally, when you get down to the research, the average UA-camR has been on the platform for over 10 years before they received, recognition and success. For those loving this as a hobby and not expecting anything out of it; the time flies, but if we constantly chase the numbers, and focus on the views, and the likes, and the fame, and the comparisons, our channel versus his or hers. We will miss out on the vital in between steps needed to be able to succeed on UA-cam. Don't count the first year you were on UA-cam. That technically is a trial year, as the algorithm needs time to know who you are and where best to put your videos. Keep steady, Stay Focused, Love the people and growth is inevitable. Thanks so much for hearing me out ! Rashon, From R.E.D. Podcasting.

For example , what stops you from posting on youtube regularly. I think so many people would be able to relate to you. It would encourage you as well as your audience. It would encourage me.

    My own honest review after almost 1 year on UA-cam with under 100 subscribers: I don't care about the algorithm, I don't care about my channel's stats, analytics, I upload videos when I want to, I don't look at when my audience is online, I don't expect to make any money from it, and I don't bother about that. I just like to make walking videos and audio videos and put them on UA-cam in the hope that one other person will find it interesting. If by some miracle there is a bigger audience, then great, if not, no big deal.

    When I saw your title, I decided to check why your channel is where it is.
    You do lifestyle, the chances of getting monitized quickly is slow.
    Focus on one niche. You're posting random content. Let the algorithm understand your channel.
    Okay run this experiment.
    Create a new channel post on one niche that you know well probably relationship. Something on how guys can get into a healthy relationship and what to do.
    Post 25 videos there if you can do 3 times a week that's two months. Then compare it with this channel.
    I'm number 376 and I look forward to seeing your result from the experiment.

    Had to subscribe. Thanks for the info. I felt like it was me you are talking to. Started my travel vlogs and my friend, UA-cam is not for the weak. Today you get, tomorrow you don’t. It has taught me a lot of patience and i love the fact that it taught me to accept me as i am. Great content 😉

    I like this video. What you are doing is NOT easy. If it’s easy, everyone will be doing it. Also I love the fact that you are not trying to be like others. You are unique. Keep it like that.
    Keep working on it and keep posting.
    You past two years is the beginning. You are now 1k. One day it will be 100k.

    You have a big chance at making it, you are eloquent. You need build networks with other content creators and share ideas. Always remember there are trends, sometimes you can go with the trending videos and try to align your videos to them. People are always searching for information, you need good positioning to get noticed.

    Don’t give up. The lessons you have learned maybe you can do a webinar for those who are struggling to get subscribers and not to get in the pitfalls of building their channel. My channel is small and new it is scary to put yourself out there so I understand what you are saying. You will do well. I love your authenticity. New supporter✅

    That's amazing to hear my dear sister! That's really the truth! I started as UA-camr a week ago and it's like to get one subscriber is really a big meaning gain in life! Of course it's really hard to get subscribers and l still believe struggle to believe one day it will happen to get 1000 or even 5000 subscribers!!!
    God bless my my beautiful sister. You're really smart inside out. You already got my subscription support.
    Lots of blessings.
