“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.” Here's to everyone trying to grow in 2021! If you're putting the effort and love in, all it takes is time! Keep on going :)
I’ve been learning that you have to learn to fall in love with the process and find beauty in the struggle/growth process. Once I began to look at things in this perspective, it made making content a lot easier AND a lot more enjoyable. Thanks for the great insight!!
Thank you for the encouragement. I am a film maker in Toronto but because of the pandemic a lot of the production paused or got canceled here. So I Started my youtube channel but its been difficult to not focus on views. I guess I will keep moving forward! 👍🏻
Im a few days away from hitting 10k subs and i cant tell you how accurate this video is😂😂😂.....It never ends....especially when it comes to tech and gaming
Decided to bought macbook air, went to amazon... then tought, support our creators, so went to my most favourite youtuber of all time (Swedish Peter) picked one amazon infiliate link and purchased macbook air to gf christmas pressent :) One purchase, 2 happy people :) Merry Christmas Guys :)
You were the first BIG UA-camr I started following religiously and to this day I appreciate every single content you put out there. Vlogs, Tutorials, Advise it doesn't matter to me because I like it and I always make sure I watch it entirely. Happy new Year and all the best for 2021. PS my channel grew bigger than I expected because I was following a lot of your tutorials :D I hate the analytics they always ruin my day so I made it a habit to NOT check them. I only look at analytics once a week these days :D
POV: You clicked on this video thinking he wished he would've knew a trick he knows now about blowing up on UA-cam, and instaed you find out he's just telling you to don't care about how many views you get
Hi from Canada Peter. Absolutely love your stuff, the authenticity, the info, the channel. You hit the nail on the head with all your comments. Been at it for 6 years, it’s a tough go but love it. Keep up the great work! 🍻
My tech channel is starting to grow, aiming for 3 videos per week. Website how-to videos, how to make content for websites, pro photos and video editing. Its hard work but super motivated. Thanks Peter, you are inspiring
If you really enjoy making videos and wanna invest 10-15 hours every week doing so, how long do you think you will keep it up if you keep getting 10 views every video?
@@bluecollarmenproductions with (some) keyword research, good seo, self promotion on facebook/reddit/twitter on relevant communities, end cards for similar vids from your channel after each vid, improving just slightly with every video, etc. it's not at all unreasonable to grow to at least getting 10k views per video consistently after 90-100 deliberate, consistently improving videos If you're doing it for 'broadcasting your life' and have no intention at all of growing your channel but wouldn't mind if one day your channel blew up by sheer luck then that's totally fine too
Do what you love doing. If it works then you’re doing something you love. If it doesn’t work, then you’re doing something you love......win, win, either way.
As someone who just started my channel, this is giving me so much awesome perspective! Will take these thoughts in man! Thank you for being so open! 💯✔🙏
What's really frustrating is when so many people who do watch tell you how good your videos are, but you still see the numbers in quicksand. Thanks for the great advice!
I had my best day where I got 7 subscribers in one day! And that was 4 days after releasing a video. It was pretty cool because I normally get a sub once or twice every 3-4 days.
Dear Peter I think of all the blabla on UA-cam this is real advice. I am the best example for this. I started a UA-cam channel 2.5 years ago, tourism in Colombia. Although many travel bloggers with sometimes millions of subscribers compete against me, I am winning the race. Firstly my videos did not rank well but today if you look for whatever in accordance with traveling in Colombia, I beat almost everyone. But as I said, the videos took a long time to climb the ranking. And sometimes that looks quite funny as my videos rank first with just 1,2 or 3 thousand views and the competition with hundreds of thousands of views rank below me. But it was very hard work. Cheers from Bogota Frank
A few years from now, you'd look back at this and be like, "When I had only about 400K subs.." (It's the name of the game) Your content and you are awesome man! Keep inspiring us. Thank you!
Great advice, Peter - thanks! I just started my channel in October. I'm not a pro; not doing it for a living. I love photography and decided I can and will make a channel where talk about, and demonstrate my love of my hobby (not a pro photographer either). Low numbers can be crushing - but I don't focus on them. I'm doing this because I love it. My goal is to simply be consistent (I post every 2 weeks) for a solid year. I'll take a hard look at things in October 2021 to see if I'm making any headway, and if anyone really cares about viewing my content. I think if we (beginners) do two things, we'll be fine: 1 - Don't compare to all the wonderful channels that are out there (they too were once where we are). 2 - Make your channel about something you're super passionate about. It matters! So instead of trying to make content you think others like - make what you like. It'll show in your work. Me? Twenty subscribers so far :-) with an average of 35 views. It's a slow process, and I'm fine with that. Keep rockin man - you are an inspiration to me, and those like me. Thank you. -Rusty
Good words of advice Peter! Our channel is just a fun, goof around channel for our family vacations, but even still, every time I get a sub or a video gets posted and performs well, I’m absolutely hyped! I can’t imagine the added pressure of doing it for a living! Great video
Preach! Consistency is so so important! 🙏 Learned that the hard way. I'd also say when starting out, you really really need to niche down as far as you can. My first popular video was a niche video on GH5 with viltrox speedbooster and Sigma 18-35 lens. So this niche was specific down to the camera, and lens +accessories combination. This made a lot of people find the video since there really wasn't many other people with this specific title. So as small creators, it helps to have super niche search terms
Having as a goal to start my UA-cam Channel showing my migration journey to Germany 🇩🇪🇬🇷 , your channel is such an inspiration. 💯 Happy new year and thank you very much for your content! 🙏💯
I've just started my own channel (Drone Magic), and I am concentrating on making content, at this very early stage. I know what I'm dong at the moment is very amateurish, compared with other, more experienced UA-camrs, but I also know that I will get better as time goes by PROVIDED THAT I STICK WITH. There is so much to learn - videoing, sound, editing, content - and that's even without learning how to properly present yourself on camera, and learning how to develop a personality and style that works best for you.
This was the best video I've seen so far on this topic! It really can get frustrating when your channel isn't growing as fast as you wanted but not focusing on the views is definitely KEY to keep going and staying motivated!
I stumbled across this video to check (again) that I'm on the right path. I'm very positive to keep going even though I look back at my earlier videos and see that I have grown. Thanks.
I’m 3 years in and STILL just beginning. It can be so very frustrating. You can do everything right and still get no where. It’s soooo much trial and error and mostly error 🤦♂️ Love your videos man! Keep on grinding! 💪🤘👊
So true. I feel like im just throwing everything at a wall hoping for something to stick to help guid some what of a viable direction... but till stay on the path i want. Thanks for the encouraging words.
Thank you for giving us your honest thoughts, it is very hard starting on any platform with zero followers, there is so much to learn and do and worry about! Thank you again for reminding us what to focus on (just create the content we like until an audience grows and becomes vocal) and go from there. Cheers!
Great and simple tips! I started my channel a while ago but it's been all over the place and not consistent. Treating it as an actual business this year and growing it as much as possible!
Dude, such a good an honest video. So many truths behind everything you are saying. I think you're right where people like things they can relate too and when it's got an amature feel about it they think 'yeah, I can do this also'
You got the right idea, Peter! Thanks for sharing as always, this might be just the kick in behind I need to get going again... Positive vibrations from sopping and chilly Ireland! ☘️☮️🤘🏽🤠👍🏽☮️☘️
Well, I have decided to start my UA-cam channel last year and it's really hard to put out content every month every week with a full-time job, a young family of two children's and many projects on the way but I'm going to say that to you Peter, thanks a lot for your personality and your style and thanks for your advices because it really hits at the right time and thank you for sharing your knowledge I truly appreciate it! Man What I wish is that I had known you sooner 😂
Right video for the right time for me as I've just scheduled a mix breakdown video today, which is the first time I'm trying to do a mix breakdown video and I've fumbled the whole video.😀 But had to push myself to do this as I wanted to improve myself in the journey and provide value to my subscribers☺️ Thank you so much Peter! More Love to you ❤️
Love it Peter. You have very natural style. I started my channel at the start of COVID (like many I guess) Like you, I wish I had started years ago. At 50, I just wanted fun. Hit the subs and time minimum requirements last week but you are so right! Just keep having fun and experimenting. Love it. Look forward to following your on going journey 👍
I'll try to not thing much of the numbers like you said. And it's like you said no one can do the videos we do and we should have fun making them ! Thanks Peter !
Man I know exactly what your going through... my wife’s channel (Loeppky’slife) started out as just documenting our days for our kids to watch in the future. 250k subs later you REALLY feel the pressure. We just spend a whole week filming a Christmas crafting video, and on top of that doing it with our two kids. So much work and time went into it and the views were terrible compared to the other videos. It’s so hard not to watch the views... but trying to remember why you do it. Also, UA-cam messed something up recently in a new update and lots of people got their bell notifications taken off. She mentioned that in one of her videos and lots of people Said their bell was off. So something to maybe give a boost to your views is to make sure people’s bell notifications are on.... Love your channel, I know it’s hard, and I appreciate all work you are doing!
Thanks Peter from Sweden! It's always important to compare yourself to your past self. Doing small improvements in each video brings a huge sense of accomplishment and raising the bar will bring the views. So just improve little by little and good luck to us all in 2021!!!
I’m the same. I started way back in 2008 and then I stopped. I lost access to that account as I hadn’t logged in in so many years. So I started again a few years ago. I wish I had kept the momentum up as in 2008 it would have snowballed now and I would be well on my way to a few thousand subscribers I’m sure. So I’m keeping it going now and my first video of 2021 premiers this evening at 7pm GMT. Here’s hoping for a good 2021
Great advice I needed to hear this i have really focused myself on learning how to create all types of videos such as i do haunted/abandoned/historical towns/and vlogs .I felt I needed to learn all this as it should help me later on.Thx for sharing this as of right now I guess I will continue to do all this style and mix in the vlogs but try to post more in 2021
I think UA-cam as a platform could do a lot to help creators not focus on numbers. There are an overwhelming number of metrics that UA-cam pushes on creators and viewers alike. When you start to review and mine the data, it becomes a neverending task that often doesn't lead anywhere; all of that time expended looking at analytics could have been better used actually creating and uploading. Great discussion, Peter.
True, it's just the perception that every video that we produced is great snd thus we're entitled to a ton of views, which in reality that's not the case. Just post content and keep it as good and consistent as you can. Love your work man! ✌
That was encouraging, to put it mildly. Thank you, Peter. I was feeling a bit anxious about trying different things while just in the beginning of my channel, but deep down inside I knew it was the right thing to do. Now I know it and from the outside 😁
Love it pal. Thanks for continuing to inspiring and leading. Hard to find that balance between views and art ....
Me to 🙌
BrianG I agree
@@urtechiegeek Ditto
@@CarnivoreConfidential I second that!
Talking about views and art ... Peters studio is art that draws in views.

Preach! Consistency is so so important! 🙏 Learned that the hard way. I'd also say when starting out, you really really need to niche down as far as you can.

Great advice I needed to hear this i have really focused myself on learning how to create all types of videos such as i do haunted/abandoned/historical towns/and vlogs .I felt I needed to learn all this as it should help me later on.Thx for sharing this as of right now I guess I will continue to do all this style and mix in the vlogs but try to post more in 2021
success is a roaring train forward. It always has to roar..... Great work and I appreciate your thoughts.
Thank you so much for this video this is helpful for us small youtubers that are trying to get some recognition in this big platform
Thank you! And yes, that’s exactly what I did..though not a great year I started my channel 😅 better late than never!
I think UA-cam as a platform could do a lot to help creators not focus on numbers. There are an overwhelming number of metrics that UA-cam pushes on creators and viewers alike. When you start to review and mine the data, it becomes a neverending task that often doesn't lead anywhere; all of that time expended looking at analytics could have been better used actually creating and uploading. Great discussion, Peter.
True, it's just the perception that every video that we produced is great snd thus we're entitled to a ton of views, which in reality that's not the case. Just post content and keep it as good and consistent as you can. Love your work man! ✌
That was encouraging, to put it mildly. Thank you, Peter. I was feeling a bit anxious about trying different things while just in the beginning of my channel, but deep down inside I knew it was the right thing to do. Now I know it and from the outside 😁
What I find special about your channel, is the coloring, looks SO good 😍
