I'm on 434 subscribers which is amazing! But getting the views and watch time is hard! I have recently edited my thumbnails with more colour. We can do this!! Let's achieve our youtube dreams!!!
Thank you for sharing Millie. I feel like UA-cam is saturated and pushes out what they want to push or maybe I’m just doing something wrong. I’ve been on UA-cam for years and it seems like these days are highly competitive. I will not give up.
Hi there, I seem to agree with you. I started five months ago and gathered the same opinion as you as I entered my fourth month. Money is being spent for the " coaches" to assist, and in my case the results have been very minimal.
God will provide! Have faith! All you need is faith as small as a mustard seed. I see you make Christian content! Keep it up! Your time is coming! You've got 5k subs, you are already doing better than most.😃
This is so helpful since I’m just starting out my UA-cam as a photography educator! I am so guilty of just screenshotting an image from the video so this makes me realize I need to put so much more thought into the thumbnails and titles! Thank you for always sharing so much with us! Love your channel!
Thank you for this advice!! Most of my thumbnails are just a picture of me smiling!!😂 I need to work on my curiosity gap!! Also, my title just repeats the thumbnail words- will work on this!! Some day I will be a big time booktuber!!!!!🎉
To get more views on UA-cam, it's crucial to focus on optimization and engagement strategies that work. Here are some additional practical tips: -Optimize your titles and thumbnails to grab attention and improve click-through rates. -Make sure to engage with your audience by responding to comments and encouraging shares.
Thank you so much for the information. We started our channel about moving to Italy about a month ago and we are loving it. It is SO fun, but it’s also a lot of work. So much information out there. Good luck to you and to all the new channels out there!
I am really on board with the whole thumbnail strategy. Just scrolling through my youtube suggested feed, I can see that being applied very successfully. This How To video was way worth the watch!
Gave a thumbs up and got a good laugh at being called out for doing my thumbnail at the end. Perfectly describing my process of grabbing a screenshot and uploading words on it LOL called out.
Was like "I bet she's going to call me out on saving the thumbnail for last" and then you did 🤣absolutely loved this video! So helpful as always, Millie! Thank you so much!
@@His_bride OMGOSH!! Thank you so much! I'm so glad you posted this because I was wondering who the 600th person was 💖 I'm headed over to subscribe to your channel right now 🎉
Great Tips Millie. I allready see some of my mistakes even though i post some shorts, i soon plan to make bigger videos and i think your advice will help alot! Thanks for sharing!
This was so good! I've been testing different thumbnails and the UA-cam testing tool has been so helpful! I'm seeing consistent growth and more views + clicks.
Another great video! I am guilty of rushing things when it comes to making videos and posting. We are learning and trying to improve, hoping to be monetized. To content creators who may read this message, keep going! You can do it! We all have great things to share with people. Be well, everyone!
this is crazy! I use to first find my title for when i spoke at events and then i would write out my outline based on the title! I have gotten away from it and had been thinking what if i started doing that again and then i came across THIS video!!! lol pretty much confirming what i have been feeling! I just started and posted my first youtube video! I'm excited to get back to title + thumbnail step!! THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO!!! :)
Hi Millie! I love your videos but many of your advice hardly works for UA-camrs who make things and publishes tutorials and stuff for that - like in this case you just can't make the thumbnail in advance and also curiosity gap is fairly hard to make. Do you have maybe more spacific advice to these creators? Thank you and keep up your amazing work!😊
Great advice! Already went back and updated 2 of mine - will be interesting to see if my views increase. AND will start planning the thumbnail BEFORE the video. 👍
The actual video that I needed and it is why I love 🥰 Millie's channel. My goal at the moment is to increase my watch time so Thanks 👍 for sharing this video and the Aprilynne video is amazing. Love ❤ Millie.
This video is a must-watch for anyone who wants to grow their UA-cam channel. The presenter shares a simple yet effective strategy for increasing views, and she provides clear and concise instructions. Her passion for helping others is evident, and I'm sure many UA-camrs have found her advice valuable.
Thank you for the nice beautiful content ❤ I just created my Art Channel 6 weeks ago with now 240 subscribers. Working hard on it. I wish all small Channels big success 🌺
Also going back to edit old thumbnails! Which I'm *still* working on 😅. I do feel like I'm getting better at the overall video, title, thumbnail package though! I just reached 403 subscribers and 2,000 watch hours and am feeling very accomplished AND motivated! Thanks for your awesome tips, I just started a UA-cam Thumbnail album for brainstorming my own thumbnails 😁
Our other mentor was on Enthusiasm today. I keep telling Bunny that we are going to figure this thing out and someday when we are getting coffee someone will come up to us and say are you that couple that sits in traffic and tells jokes? We'll say "Are you that person that does ______?" and together we'll scream "I LOVE YOU" Then we'll take a bunch of selfies and tell our favorite Millie tips. It will happen.
I mostly create youtube shorts, i think of my thumbnail before i start the editing because i know that youtube only allows the image within the short. And you are right the day i do not remember to do that i barely come up with a thumbnail.
Thank you to my 206 incredible subscribers! 🙌 I appreciate you!! Today’s a bit rough, but it’s another step forward. Just wanted to remind myself - and anyone reading, to stay strong and keep going. We’ve got this! 💪✨
Having more videos can help, but they need to be relevant and what people are wanting or watching. Knowing this and tailoring your content to your audience will help you drive growth☺️
I struggle in the editing process , so I mostly do " shoot and scoot " type of Short videos . I am wondering if going back and changing the thumbnails would be a good use of time ?
How fo you think of thumbnail ideas? I have looked at least 50+ and don't and many of them look too busy. I am not in the autism spectrum, but for folks who are snd others who are turned off my a lot of color and gafgets, I am not sure how this information helps. Also, when YTube generates thumbnail ideas, or we to ignore them? Please advise. Thank you
I spend time on my thumbnails and they still turn out like crap. Difficult not to get down on yourself in the beginning I suppose. I will take these tips to heart.
My best performing video had a thumbnail that I researched and had inspo pictures for and I was able to also make it quickly and effortlessly. But most times I do wait until the end and it just doesn’t get the same views and I had come to a similar realization hating I need to plan and prep for my thumbnails
@@goldsand the realization is not a fun one 😅 especially after putting SO MUCH EFFORT into a video, it’s like you barely have any energy left to even THINK about a thumbnail. Starting with the thumbnail has helped me enjoy the thumbnail process a little bit more though. Because when I find a cool thumbnail concept, I get even MORE excited to make that video!😁 Everyone’s process is different and I hope you’re able to find a process that’s enjoyable 🤗
@@MillieAdrianthank you for that! And you are right, I had a better flow and fun time editing for that video with the pre planned thumbnail. And I’m now realizing that’s why! Thank you
Look forward to your video every week! My goal for this year was to hit 10k subscribers and I’m almost there 🙌🏼 I’m getting a little nervous but I’m still hopeful I’ll make it 🎉
Heavenly Father protect my children. I’m overwhelmed because I’m on my own as a single mother. My husband passed many years ago. I have no one to turn to, but you. Heavenly Father. Give me strength Lord my sons are both special needs children. Guide me as I struggle to buy groceries, and as I struggle to pay rent every month. Please keep my sons safe and protect us from the evil ones of this world.💕
Amen to you. My prayers are with you that God will guide you successfully through this process and continue to protect your sons, you and your family. Stay focused. I will continue to pray for your family. Be blessed.😊😊😊

@MillieAdrian Thanks Millie!! Appreciate the support!!
I’m glad to luck across this video, we been working on creative ways of perfecting our titles. This video just helped a lot, thank you.
Great tips, thanks Millie! I think UA-cam also allows creators to A/B test thumbnails which is a feature I haven’t tried yet but plan to.
Oh! Yes! This would definitely be an interesting thing to try! 👏🏽
Thank you for sharing Millie. I feel like UA-cam is saturated and pushes out what they want to push or maybe I’m just doing something wrong. I’ve been on UA-cam for years and it seems like these days are highly competitive. I will not give up.

Ty Millie! As small and niched content creator it can be hard to see progress sometimes; the thumbnail tips were very useful! 🙌🏾

UA-cam is the internet lottery. More videos (tickets) better your odds.
Having more videos can help, but they need to be relevant and what people are wanting or watching. Knowing this and tailoring your content to your audience will help you drive growth☺️
Can you please do a vid on scripting a YT vid on how you do it and how you follow it during filming
I struggle in the editing process , so I mostly do " shoot and scoot " type of Short videos . I am wondering if going back and changing the thumbnails would be a good use of time ?
You could definitely try it! It might help you see what types of thumbnails drive the most traffic for your audience ☺️
