My BIGGEST advice for videos is make content that people get hooked early and watch all the way through. That's what youtube is all about. Engaging the viewer and giving them reasons to watch through the video and crave more when they are done. Keep videos compact, don't repeat yourself too many time, make sure your intros draw the viewer in, and have video outros that have people wanting more. I have spent a lot of time recently improving my style, and this is what I strive for on every video. It has made a very big difference on my videos doing this chance, and they are being promoted alot more becuase people have a reason to watch through the videos, and youtube sees that
Intros, titles, thumbnails and having fun are all key pieces of growth I learnt from you. From watching your content and our talks, I’ve learnt a method to keep people hooked through an intro which is what you want, I’ve also learnt more simplistic to the point thumbnails and good titles are also ways to get clicks. And finally I have fun with the content I make, which helps a bunch because it means I put more effort into it, rather than just uploading a video for the sake of uploading! Thank you Potato.
Im glad you liked my answer I've watch the whole video and for the algorithm is you'll need more Quality and editing skills ull need to get more interesting video ideas rather than doing the same content over and over "Hive gameplay" you need to add twist to get into the algorithm like potatopie said ull need good title and thumbnail and I realize that "Shorter and simple Titles Are better" and for the thumbnails just make it high quality and easy to understand/read ull need to give the idea of your video to your viewers so they know what are they gonna watch This time I've been checking my analytics and experimenting some stuff it istantly I found one "flaw" My previous videos were not edited well/enough thats why I dont get that much watch time
I think it’s also good to have a meme or a funny thing you’re known for about you will be quite helpful as well. TurboPiggy is known for voiding, Potato is known for ClankStar simping for him e.t.c
Very useful video I must say! I've been doing YT consistently since 2016 and a lot of these tips have only started to get to me recently. Especially the one about video titles since... I'll admit, That I'm one of those people that use the extremely dated "Minecraft PE/Bedrock [Insert Minigame Here] Episode 185" format. So it's no wonder why a ton of my videos underperform. lol (I mainly do so since I don't see the need in rebooting a long running series, Much less one involving LBSG) I'm also someone that tends to upload whatever I want regardless of the genre, But I plan to eventually move past that and focus almost solely on plush content. Since it's what my core audience wants and it'll be way easier than trying to build an entire new audience based around a game and server that I don't play nearly as much as I used to. I originally did want to try making more Hive related videos, But I just don't have the time or energy to be consistent with it. Above all else though, I have made a ton of connections over the years and I have amassed a dedicated following from my livestreams. So that's way more than I ever expected to get.
I think your repetition in the community matters as well. If you’ve done something bad in the past, it could effect how people look at you in the community, which could lead to a lot of hate and some drama. Btw 7:33 only the legends were in mj’s stream waiting for him to say hi yt
@@manhaq9994 no, I like my name, also I have had this name for 5 years, this was my name when I got my scratch account. Also there are other orcas in the hive community, so the numbers help me stand out
It also takes a LOT longer for some people than most might think. I know someone who’s had only 1K and has been uploading consistently for over 2 years now and hasn’t even made it to 2K yet. Takes a lot of dedication. *To be fair he is mostly a streamer and sometimes just streaming doesn’t always work.*
This is *SO* useful thank you so much potatoman! I’ve always wanted to start making Hive content but I’ve been having trouble with finding video ideas and where to start with making content on the hive, this will help me a ton and I love how this video will help so many others be apart of the community
Same im a very small youtuber that started a year back. Im really trying to start getting better. I had a break for over a year. Im now trying to get back into youtube.
Being a creator has your mind running 24/7. You're always thinking about what's next and what you can do to continue growing. Trying to find time especially when you're in college. beIN consistent etc. Our brains never really take a good break
Great video but I'm not sure how accurate the quality part is (3:47) , I grew thousands of views using 30 fps 1080p because that's all my cheap PC could handle. The important part is that you make videos that are very unique and people cant find your style of videos anywhere else.
Tbh, algorithm is not the part where I struggle, it's to make the people click on the video. Even though the thumbnail and title is good, sometimes they just... Not interested.
I used to be subscribed to Skeppy (a well-known Minecraft RU-vidr), but then he started posting so frequently I got sick of having his videos in my recommended. I didn't find the videos entertaining because the jokes were overused, or the videos didn't have a solid plot. I'm not saying that you have to plan out a whole deal for a video; it just shouldn't leave a viewer questioning what the heck they just watched. Making sure you know who your target audience is is also very important. If you're making high-energy content, young children would probably prefer that (though children are changing, I guess). Consistency of your intended audience is probably vital. If you had one video made for young children, then next a video made for adults, it might make them less likely to come back to your channel and watch videos. (This was kind of a weak point, but perhaps you get what I'm saying).
technoblade: almost no editing, only small cuts skywars or sg commentary without anything else talks about stuff in 10 min videos posts once or twice a year
It would be nice if you made a video deeply explaining things like thumbnails and consistency and other things because it would help me a lot on my journey.
Note: try to know your viewers point and never change your content if do your fans will leave and forget about u so plz don't change your content it will ruin your channel but also dont use yt as a money gradder instead used it as a fun place to make content another tip is u see ppl saying " welcome to my channel" it means they let come to your channel so plz do that if so anyway that's all and thx POTATO for tips I feel inspired by u
Ik I'm not big or anything but it hurts when people who have good content quit when they aren't seeing the greatest result so even tho I ain't big or anything just grind and put the effort into it.
As a youtuber I recommend making the titles have a sound anything so you can give the viewer the most attention to keep watching, also make it satisfiniying if you dont know how to make people keep watching, so ya also now you must make a picture of what your saying if your doing commentery, and your just talking with your captions some people wont know what you mean and leave the video, make them keep watching by making it where all of your fans know what your doing, you should also find a player you want to talk about if you dont do that people wont look at stuff that makes them watch further, also make captions if your playing with other youtubers the best color is the other person voice fav color you should also make premeries on content that is not just a funny clip make it a long video or a video you havent did in a long time luck 40% hard work 60% im trying my best to do these things and hope to be a big content creater
I’ve been trying to make friends with other RU-vidrs to do collabs but I don’t really know how and was wondering if you had any tips on how to get collabs with other RU-vidrs
Consistency definitely a big example:Fit mc uploads every Saturday morning And I know this is a lot more specific than most people but I think it helps him a ton because it’s so easy to realize on Saturday morning that you’re bored and that you can go click on that video versus having to have it get lucky and go in your recommended
Dude, these are some really good tips! Thanks so much! Also if you’re a non-commentary channel (like me) you have to have good editing. This is something I really aim for in my new videos. You shouldn’t over do it but just enough so people don’t get bored and click off. If you do do commentary then PotatoPie’s editing is a good example
Yeah on my channel ive been grinding for about 7 months now and little to know grouth, Im doing most things right here but I still kinda need to get a bit of luck on my side.
Just one thing I want to ask how the heck did you get the angel effect thing behind the RU-vid logo in your thumbnail because I’ve been trying to get that and I cannot
Remember that the competition in the youtube community is very tight that you have to think more about your content and how will you strive in a big ocean
It’s kind of annoying, on a mobile device ( i don’t know if thats the reason) i cant upload custom thumbnails,its extremely annoying knowing that thumbnailing is part of someone’s success to youtube
Thank you for sharing this. I am a very small hive RU-vidr, and everyone is going to be using these. I will try to use these strategies one if the most, but that will be hard. Either way, this is a great video with great tips. Much love potato:)
I'm an aspiring Hive content creator, and this video will really help out once I decide to start making videos. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work! :D
wow.... this video was an unexpected gift that i'm really happy to receive Ty sm for the advice, you were the last guy i was thought that i would get top tier advise AND in the type of video i want to make! again, thank you so much for this video!
