1.5 years and I’m almost at 1000. This job is hard but worth it. Starting lean deeper into long form content these days. If anyone feels like swapping ideas let me know.
I’ve been making shorts for a few weeks now, and randomly one of my videos starting blowing up. Now that I’ve seen this video I’ll try to use it and hope that it starts to blow up. Also I’ve just reached 100 subscribers yesterday.
@@BambinoDWelds well it’s surprising that all of your shorts are doing decent. 400-600 views each short is very impressive for a person that just started uploading
Probably not interesting at all: I'm not uploading for money, definitely not. However, I am trying to connect with my audience. I've been growing the channel for over a year now. I've been liking to post music videos/'opening sequences' for my favorite tv shows as a fan sort of thing(+ I like to edit), but I've been deciding to change things up a little. (Also, adding video thumbnails.) Now, I'm doing trivia and blooper/mistake stuff off of my observations. AND I'm narrowing my niche down a little, and focusing mainly on retro, classic tv. I think retention is going up. Maybe it is since I'm talking. I'm saying what the video is, instead of just expecting the viewers to get it from the title, thumbnail, and description alone. I love talking a lot, and my words are very fast. So, I'm trying to slow down for more clarity.

@@ShadowTrapYT the thing that worked for me is to do a trend as fast as possible to be the one of the only ones people can watch when they want to search up said trending topic.
@@ShadowTrapYT It helps if you just pick something you’re actually passionate about and enjoy making videos about. For example, my channel is a Fortnite personal clips & gaming content channel since I’m passionate about both casual gaming and Fortnite.
I always attempt to make my thumbnails follow those three steps, brighter colors help more often, either that or higher contrast (basically things need to stick out)
Hey John give me 7 minutes of your editing skills haha. It's "Good enough" is a key point. We will ALWAYS find things we could of done better but we gotta move on!
5:44 Wow, finally an honest person who doesn't claim to spend days and months coming up with the most creative thumbnail in the entire parallel universe. Just a normal human being who gets inspired and then adapts it to their topic!
This was THE EXACT video Ive been looking for. Ive been trying to study so many other channels intros, what worked for them, which ones did better and what not. Great video, dont stop trying everyone!
It was funny because when I did my very first couple of videos months I spent a good 3 days trying to find the right spin on my intro of my videos. Looking back, it still was a horrible job. XD But funny enough, I really have a good knack of doing it in one swing every now and then and it pans out very well! 😅 There are times when I'll just wing it and if it seems good enough, I move on, and edit out the things that don't seem to work out (and what I kind of find like a filler or fluff excess part / stuff that actually didn't really interest me at the end and cut that part out too). Surprisingly, I can relate back then when it comes to sending out the message and trying to be a perfectionist about it way too often, it ends up with me going about it in circles so I just redo it from the beginning and it gets done like that as opposed to 5 to 8 different takes and putting it together to make it seem right despite still seeming like a mess -- lol 😂 but now I don't even take near that many takes, trying to get the point across despite trying to reduce the long explanations because I feel it bores people eventually, or people have the notion to not bother (lazy mentality, not much you can do with that lol), but you are right. Just move on. lol as for me, I just get photobomb'd way too often whenever I'm out in public and even if I move to many remote private areas where hardly anyone walks around and there's nothing much to see, people somehow gravitate towards my area and still come to my area and pass through me and my camera pointed elsewhere. Tourists here in Niagara Falls are bizarre hahaha, that's probably one of the things I edit out more often in my videos anyways these days in my situation of video recordings. A long way has come, and I definitely gotten much better now with the videos than I have in the past. Thanks for your experiences you've given to me as well. Irony how I can relate as well and still climbing that mountain 2 years later! 😂 love this video, thank you for sharing your experiences on a relatable level -- and apologies for the long novel post lol
I have been on UA-cam since 2016 I have made and deleted more than 12 channels never achieved anything but this time I am locked in with this channel I won't give up this time. ITS MY FINAL ATTEMPT ❤ Good Luck everyone who have similar story to mine❤
These are all very valuable tips and I really love your videos. Regarding looking straight into the camera lense, it depends. I've seen videos with milions of views where the person in the video is clearly looking sideways... Sometimes the content is more important than whether the person is looking into the camera or not. This being said, I get what you meant.
My method for marking a new take is to clap my hands in front of the camera. This functions similarly to a clapperboard in filmmaking. By doing it directly in front of the camera and microphone, it creates a clear visual and audio cue that is easy to spot, thanks to the peak in volume. This approach is particularly useful for multi-camera recordings or when using external audio sources, as it provides a reliable reference point for syncing the footage.
To the person who is reading this, don’t give up on your UA-cam channel, Keep going to get better and trust the process. 😊🙂 and Thank You VidIQ for great UA-cam Tips.
I have a dog training clicker I use, It works for syncing sound and video. but I all so click the thing like I won at slots in Vegas after I have a good take, before I start a clip, I click it 1 to 3 times depending on my mood. I just stick it back in my pocket or hold it out of sight.
All of us small channels keep going! Started making videos, and it has made me more confident! Even though my edits are bad I still have a great time 🎉
Agreed! The learning aspect has been a lot of fun. I'm sure it's doing wonders for my big brain cuz there are parts that hurt. Lol. Good luck with the channel!
It is easy to say not to give up,but just remember one thing. everyone started from bottom and now they have reached their top,so just let it keep going on we'll make it.💯
#3 would be a PERFECT sponsor opportunity for a teleprompter company. You can look at the camera while reading the script at the same time! It does often cost hundreds of dollar though.
I have a teleprompter but I often found that if I'm reading instead of talking, it doesn't feel as authentic. Each take might vary but when it feels good enough, it is. For me at least.
I think when it comes to retention that it's about stress and release, you start the video all "HEY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS" to catch the eye, you add some jokes in the first 30 seconds, and then you cool off a bit with subtle/no jokes for the next (half) minute, and then you increase again
If you are reading don't give up. Remember that this journey is going to be a long one, but as long as you are enjoying what you are posting and care about it then the views, subscribers, and even money will come eventually. 😃❤
the thing with gaming thumbnails is some games like terraria (my vid got 8 views) can't just be an ingame screenshot but in over games like osu! (my vid got 1.6K views) it can be fine but make sure to pick a good one. this is just my experience so i could be wrong.
you know you look silly holding up your finger pointing to a End Screen that no longer exist. YT has moved the end screen to about the 3/4 5:00 time mark in most videos for me. Not sure if YT is testing something and I'm part of a test group or it is a new thing. YT has also removed the hide click for me on shorts. If I see a short I do not want to watch in my subscription feed. I can no longer hide that short or any shorts. This is all on a PC and has been going on for a few days, I have not looked to see if it is the same with a iPhone or the TV app.
@@HeyJohnScott Like I said, I think I'm in some sort of YT test group. My YT Subscription page will not let me hide shorts and plays the end screens early in the videos.
I have the luxury of making my videos exactly how I want them to be. If I feel an intro adds a lot ,why do I care how many seconds it takes. Like I said I am not a slave to metrics. I have absolutely no concerns as to views subscribers or whatever. My only concern was did I make exactly the video I intended. Were my points demonstrated well and were they even good points. What benefit would anyone recieve from watching etc . Once those boxes are checked ..publish and make the next one
What's wrong with youtube shorts? I recorded a video and a short on the exact same settings and the audio in the short is SO LOUD, while in the video it's fine. Also why does youtube sometimes not process shorts in 60 fps?
Don't forget that you have unique value to offer that no one else has! If you are trying to succeed on UA-cam you CAN! Stock with it, you've got this! And have a great day.

I don't know much about editing but im trying anyways I'll get more professional stuff when I get more comfortable with the Internet just started trying out stuff past year.
Nice tips.. will look into those concepts you mentioned. It's not easy spending hours on editing only to have few views. It kinda disheartening. My channel is up to 4 years now
I’ve been binging all of your advice videos and making a list of things to remember as I move forward with my channel. Thank you SO much for sharing your insights!
I don't do much in the way of editing, other than bringing clips together. I REALLY need to get better at eye contact for sure! Thumbnails need work for sure. Should go back and revisit them ... whilst I only have 8 to worry about but my graphic skills aren't best.
I dared to finally start even though I have yet so much to learn thanks to you guys. I hope I achieve my goal I really have to... Hope other newbies like me make their dreams come true :)
I had 5 subscribers but unfortunately I lost one somehow but I am going to keep posting because I have 4 subscribers who like my content and that means the world to me so I will keep going😊
Thanks for the tips! It took me years to get to 100 subs but I’m approaching 1,000 now since I started to spend more time editing and creating catchier thumbnails. My niche is food/travel in Japan so I feel my competition is high but I won’t give up because it’s what I love to do. Eat, explore, and share my adventures. If you feel giving up don’t, eventually your channel will get discovered if you keep pumping out good content!
If y'all ever need some help on the music side of it all feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to give you whatever solid advice I've learned. There's a lot of people on here that will sell you a false dream. My general advice is to do everything with integrity as much as you can and when you eventually reach the top you can be proud of what you earned.
These videos helped me a lot in getting the courage to actually pursue this as a hobby and upload my very first of many videos. Regardless of the stats, I am very happy with the outcome. Thanks again and hope everyone else will make it :)
@vidIQ - just want to say thank you for all the content you push out helping us all, every time I watch a VidIQ video, gives me more motivation to keep going & not get disheartened, I find it hard to detach from the effort/time I put into making something with all the editing and thumbnail crafting and these things, which relate into not great views etc ….& obviously your first videos etc will be trash, it’s learning and growing to progress ..but I always get a lot of extra motivation from your videos/channel So Thank You! 🤘🏻
There are so many thumbnails that don't really tell the viewer what it is until they read the title though. And many of those have reached millions of views too. And not just memes.
Been stuck at 152 for awhile now. I had a few subs this pass week but then the numbers look like they went back down 😭. That's for the lessons and tips
Thanks for the video John. I need inspiration because I want to modify my channel and I'm stuck so I will try to avoid those mistakes as soon as I create new content. Greetings from Spain (and to all VidIQ team) 🤗
Whoever is on the video: We'll be talking about [INSERT TOPIC] in this video right here! Me a mobile user who for some reason doesn't see the video: w h e r e 👁👄👁
Have seen it... The algorithm brought me off after 5 videos. Probably because I liked the own shorts with some of my old private accounts. What should i do? Tried everything with name and hashtags.. all my my shorts are out of the algorithm, even the quality gets much better.. what should i do? New account and over edit all? Then i get my latest style in the first videos. Or does UA-cam have a problem with that?
Great video, nice to know that I have picked up on a few of these tips. Especially the multiple takes one. This has saved me a lot of time. I also found that numbering my script with takes helped immensely in the edit.
I tried and failed multiple times with good editing and planning. About three months ago, I started creating and posting sh*t animation shorts, and guess what? I got monetized in three months. I can't believe it.🤦🏽

I had 5 subscribers but unfortunately I lost one somehow but I am going to keep posting because I have 4 subscribers who like my content and that means the world to me so I will keep going😊
Can you do a video on shorts if will help long form like post clips of your long form content to promote it?
God bless you brother. I wish you many more success and everyone else here.
Thank you and Good luck to all of you.
On point tips, very helpful. Any advice on voiceless and faceless channels? Thank you!
Thanks for the tips! It took me years to get to 100 subs but I’m approaching 1,000 now since I started to spend more time editing and creating catchier thumbnails. My niche is food/travel in Japan so I feel my competition is high but I won’t give up because it’s what I love to do. Eat, explore, and share my adventures. If you feel giving up don’t, eventually your channel will get discovered if you keep pumping out good content!
If y'all ever need some help on the music side of it all feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to give you whatever solid advice I've learned. There's a lot of people on here that will sell you a false dream. My general advice is to do everything with integrity as much as you can and when you eventually reach the top you can be proud of what you earned.
These videos helped me a lot in getting the courage to actually pursue this as a hobby and upload my very first of many videos. Regardless of the stats, I am very happy with the outcome.
Thanks again and hope everyone else will make it :)
Great video - I was engaged until the end. Very good tips that I haven't heard of before.
Thanks
@vidIQ - just want to say thank you for all the content you push out helping us all, every time I watch a VidIQ video, gives me more motivation to keep going & not get disheartened, I find it hard to detach from the effort/time I put into making something with all the editing and thumbnail crafting and these things, which relate into not great views etc ….& obviously your first videos etc will be trash, it’s learning and growing to progress ..but I always get a lot of extra motivation from your videos/channel
So Thank You! 🤘🏻
Just me, but I preferred the original thumbnail for this video.
Thumbs up for the video though! 👍
Rrally good video, funny and professional at the same time, and the editing efects are great. Thanks
my avg watch duration lasts about 1:30-2:00
All small channel keep grinding that leed to success
Good advice and points. Was fun to watch. Great video
There are so many thumbnails that don't really tell the viewer what it is until they read the title though. And many of those have reached millions of views too. And not just memes.
For all content creator out there Don't give up because every piece of content brings you closer to success and making a real impact. keep grinding.
John makes the only stuff worth watching on this channel
Aw shucks
Been stuck at 152 for awhile now. I had a few subs this pass week but then the numbers look like they went back down 😭. That's for the lessons and tips
Thanks for the video John. I need inspiration because I want to modify my channel and I'm stuck so I will try to avoid those mistakes as soon as I create new content. Greetings from Spain (and to all VidIQ team) 🤗
Don’t ever stop chasing your passions.
Thanks For 1083 Subscribers Completed ❤🙏
after 50 decades, i’ve finally hit 1k subs today
if i can do it, i’m sure as hell you can do it

Now i do have trouble coming up with video content ideas...these DONT come instantly and are hard won EVERYTIME 😂😂😂😮
Have seen it...
The algorithm brought me off after 5 videos. Probably because I liked the own shorts with some of my old private accounts.
What should i do?
Tried everything with name and hashtags.. all my my shorts are out of the algorithm, even the quality gets much better.. what should i do? New account and over edit all? Then i get my latest style in the first videos. Or does UA-cam have a problem with that?
Great video, nice to know that I have picked up on a few of these tips. Especially the multiple takes one. This has saved me a lot of time. I also found that numbering my script with takes helped immensely in the edit.
As someone who is autistic, the eye contact thing, feels so weird. Both IRL and on video! I will keep trying though!
