Have you been wondering how to make a successful Minecraft channel on UA-cam? In fact, should you even bother? What if you have no skills or expensive gear? Not only will I explain how to start a UA-cam channel for gaming in 2021, but I'll explain why the gear and tech you have doesn't matter. (At least not when you're starting out.)
I started from basically no skills myself. And over the past year and a half I've discovered how to start a UA-cam channel and make money from it too. So if you're trying to start a gaming channel, especially something Minecraft related like I've done, watch this video. Consider it a pep talk :)
By the end of it, I hope I've motivated you enough to build a channel from nothing, until it becomes a successful channel. Whether that is a large channel and make money from ads, or just a smaller channel but you do it for fun. Or a mixture of both. Ultimately, you have control.
And if you want to know how to make a Minecraft youtube channel on your phone, ask in the comments. I have a few other UA-camrs that I can recommend that explain everything you need to create and manage a gaming channel on your phone. You can use UA-cam without a computer, and with a phone only. It's possible in 2021. Even a Minecraft channel. This is how to start a UA-cam channel for beginners.

Hey creators! :) I launched a podcast just for you. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/channels/e4X_e944cxGpahxol0iaZw.html (I strongly recommend Ep 2 on creator burnout!)
Here's some advice from a very small, definitely-not-a-professional Minecraft UA-camr. Think of it like a pep talk :P
I don't know if this will help anyone, or motivate anyone. But if it motivates just one person, it was worth making. ... Go out and CREATE. :)
Thankyou for the advice
No worries :) Future advice like this I will upload to the new podcast channel, here: ua-cam.com/channels/e4X_e944cxGpahxol0iaZw.html ... thanks for watching :)
TRUE WORDS! Last summer I said you know what screw it I'm going for it, after literal YEARS of putting it off because of thinking the bar is so high. I've made friends, had a lot of fun and gotten into a groove of branding and character. JUST DO IT!
That's awesome! 😁
Well said. This advice can be applied to any youtuber, not just minecraft ones.
Agreed completely. A basic phone is enough to get started with UA-cam in 2021. Lack of gear, lack of experience ... all those things can be worked on later & aren't blockers.
You are suhca positiv and ispiring person! kepp on with your uplifting attidute. you are really a treasure for the comunity
Thanks dude
Future advice like this I will upload to the new podcast channel, here: ua-cam.com/channels/e4X_e944cxGpahxol0iaZw.html .... thanks for watching :)
I really love those line " 1% to 100% better". Thanks a lot. I literally gained lots of motivation.
Go make awesome videos (eventually)!! 😁
Gidday mate- great advice!
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Would you like to see more creator-focused stuff like this? If so any particular topics?
This video is very inspirational, the part where you said that you need a desire to make a channel, and when you said that your next videos need to be better just hit different
Just takes a small improvement each time, and it adds up. Work on one thing at a time, don't try to improve everything all at once 🙂

Well said, @leigergaming. I don’t know who originally said this, but “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” I’ll add, find people who will support and even challenge you. One of the beauties of Minecraft, and the Minecraft UA-camr community, is that it is by and large a community that supports each other.
Definitely!!
Nice one Leiger! Great motivational speech.
I'm glad you liked it :) Thanks NowoCraft
Thanks NowoCraft - Future advice like this I will upload to the new podcast channel, here: ua-cam.com/channels/e4X_e944cxGpahxol0iaZw.html .... thanks for watching :)
Nice little chat Leiger, I appreciate the sincerity and 100% agree. Thanks Again!
I want to do more creator-focused stuff like this ... but still tie it back to Minecraft. Appreciate the feedback :)
Good hook, great message!
Thanks, good to know you enjoyed the video :)
Nice video, you did good on this one
Thanks Bluerim :) Appreciate the feedback
Just started mine trying to grow it thanks for the motivation
Good luck! 😁
@@LeigerGaming thanks!
I've started a new channel because I feel like I can grow alot faster with all the knowledge I've gained from my previous channel and I won't make mistakes as much
Your right about keeping improving and you don't need all fancy equipment but if your thinking about a channel for anyone reading this answer this question.
Are you doing it to be famous and for money or are you doing it for fun because your passionate about it and enjoy it?
Agreed completely!
If you do it to be famous and for money only ... you will grow, for a bit. But then you'll grow to hate it and quit anyway.
Starting from a point of fun, enjoyment and passion is the only way to do it long-term.
Can you see yourself doing the same thing every week for the next 5-10 years? If not, STILL start a channel, but do it about a topic that you are GENUINELY interested in. Rabbits, snowboarding, reading books, or singing karaoke. Whatever it is, follow your passion & you'll find it easier to do this long-term.
Thankyou for you being your self not a fake UA-camr ♥️
I always try to be myself :)
Hey mate. Future advice like this I will upload to the new podcast channel, here: ua-cam.com/channels/e4X_e944cxGpahxol0iaZw.html .... thanks for watching :)
@@LeigerGaming cool I subscribe to that channel two♥️
Agree wholeheartedly with everything you said.
I just want to add to it.
Don't be disheartened by numbers
Don't compare your numbers to similar channels
In fact don't look at numbers at all, Make the videos you want to watch, jyst do it for the fun of it.
The numbers come later (well I believe they will 😁)
Yes, it can be very discouraging if you compare numbers and find that you're underperforming.
Only compare numbers against your own personal stats, if at all. Don't compare with others.
thanks mate
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Very good pep talk
That was the goal :)
As for you, now that you've set a schedule ... try to stick to it. But it looks like you've put a lot on your plate! So if you miss a day, brush yourself off and get back into it a day or two later. It's easy to make one day stretch into 30 days ... I just did that myself last month. Was tough to get back into it at first.
Very informative and helpful. Honestly all you gotta do is just send it
Yep that's a good start for sure. Get stuff out there 🙂
Hello, another tip for small youtubers: Make content you like watching because
how you see your videos is likely how other people would see it, since you know your content more than anyone else because you know what to make and why you make it :) God bless you all.
Agreed :)
The other benefit to making videos YOU also enjoy, is that it reduces the chance of burnout.
Burnout happens quickly when you are making content to try and chase views, but don't actually enjoy the process.
I have a podcast ep about burnout too :) Would be interested to hear what you think of it?

@@LeigerGaming hello, thanks for replying to my comment looking forward to watch some of your videos.
Very honest advice
Glad you found it useful :)
I have a podcast of creator tips and advice now, here: leigergaming.com/podcast-channel
all you need is friends that u can play with and that is my only issue i dont have java and cant play with my friends
Not necessarily :) You can make plenty of content without ever needing to record gameplay with another person. And I'm not referring to singleplayer -- there's content other than let's plays :) ... I hope your channel grows & you do well :)
@@LeigerGaming thank you 😊
100% on point.
I agree with every single word and it was amazing you made this video.
I hope this encourages many great people to became a creator.
Would someone has said this to me before, I would have a channel at least 2 years longer.
Yeah. I'm sure you agree, the biggest regret most have is not starting sooner! 😅
this is good tips
I'm glad you think so! 😁
Thanks for some life coaching.
Glad you found it useful 🙂
i want to create one but my pc lags very hard and i dont have a mic
Can you create videos on another device, like a phone? :) I know a few people that run Java edition on their phone and record it that way
@@LeigerGaming I dont have a phone, but i think i will still try to record even with lag, when i say lag its like some lag spikes on the recording, not that much, thanks for still answer comments :)
I like how the titile just says me difinition in red letter because my favorite colour is red
It's a good colour :)
Hope the video helped!
I have pre recorded Minecraft PE videos I can use for UA-cam.
Great 😃 I would suggest not pre-recording too many at once if just starting out. It's worth releasing the ones you have so you can get initial feedback & use that new knowledge when making the next videos. But it can be good to get a head start by doing a few as you have!
@@LeigerGaming I recorded them a year ago, I wanted to utilize the videos I used. I don't want to waste my recordings since I might feel like I wasted them for months. May I ask if you can check the 2 latest videos I uploaded? And please let me know HERE what you think of them? I might as well learn from your feedback if you can. If not, it's ok, Merry Christmas or Happy Holiday!
The slow intro at the start of the first one is a bit hard to watch, but the number 2 video gets into the action a lot quicker and is far more interesting. I'd suggest keeping your introductions as short as possible :)
@@LeigerGaming hello, thanks for watching my videos :) for improvement.
I'm here because I'm also a small minecraft UA-camr trying to hit my 1k milestone.
Keep going and you'll make it! 🙂
@@LeigerGaming thankyou so much ♥️
And now I'm crying 😢 😭
:(
It’s just simple maths
Yep. Which means it's achievable :)
