Today is the one week anniversary of my RU-vid channel! In only a week we've gone from 0 - 91 subscribers! Here's what I've learned so far on this journey. #youtube #video #youtuber #yt #videos #tips #tutorial #challenge
Way to go! For a beginner RU-vidr you are already 10x ahead of everyone else due to the quality of shots and video production not to mention the value you provide! Keep up the good work!❤
No way, that's so cool! I checked your channel out and it looks so cool! You're crushing it man! I love the aesthetic of your channel! Everything looks so professional and produced. So inspiring man!
@@LukeWylerPhotography your channel and content looks great too! glad the algorithm showed me your video, I wish mine were being shown to people like yours lol. keep up the good work man!
Congrats!!! This is a pretty cool experiment actually! My channel has been up for around a year now and I’m very close to 500 subscribers! A small milestone, but a very meaningful one for me :) I had trouble finding my footing at first, but I think I finally found what works for my channel 🎉
Hey, congratulations! 500 is a big deal! I can't wait to reach it myself! Yes, I can relate. For the first few days I wasn't sure what kind of content I should post but now I think I'm starting to get the hang of it :)
what Ive realized is that the biggest thing setting successful creators apart is indeed their consistency, newer creators tend to quit when they see a dip in views or run out of "viral worthy ideas", great content is deff a must but it depends more on the niche. Im excited for your journey, good luck man! keep it up!
So true... I spend more time trying to think of ideas for videos than actually making them! Thanks so much for watching, it means a lot! So great to have you here! :)
It's also interesting how varied growth can be from channel to channel. One creator said that with one of his channels it took 8 months to get monetized. Another one of his channels it took 6 days. But 91 subscribers in the first week is a great start.
I started taking youtube seriously in march and it’s paying off. One thing i’m struggling with is whether I should post youtube shorts on my channel or not. I can’t tell if it would help bring a lot of new subscribers or would it bring in dead subscribers who only watch the shorts and not the long form videos .
I've found that if I keep my shorts consistent with my niche, the subscribers that come from shorts will most likely also be interested with my long form content. That being said, creating shorts is not my focus and I only create short form content because I enjoy it. It's definitely not for everyone, but if you enjoy making shorts you should go for it!
If you make shorts make some long videos also, I hate see channels that are shorts and I check their channel and the last long video was 8 months ago 😓
For sure! Creating long form content is definitely the way to go. Shorts will come and go but long form video content has been around for awhile and I personally don't think it's going anywhere.
honestly dude you just need to push past your limits and your viewers expectations. you have to manifest every day with what u want. everything takes time.
I don't think anyone knows how much skill it takes to make a video look this good. Your colors match fantastically and your watch pops (very stylish watch btw) The dark wooden background gives off a calm vibe and just to know how to get the feeling right, you need a lot of skill. And you got that skill. Congrats bro, you are going to make it one day. Just promise us you will never quit! loved the video!
Hey man, thanks for leaving such a nice comment! You got it man, I promise I won't give up! It's been a dream to do this for awhile now, so grateful to see it coming true!
I left 3 comments I swear I’m not a bot. Small niches help for being the first/innovator , big niches are ok for motivation, and a group of people in the same niche or just for motivation or mentorship or friendly competition keeps you going.
As someone who made 3 channels over the last 8 years (not serious intentions) I learned a lot. The game changes and dies out after a few months. I’m not going for viral or a bunch a views I’m going for a fan base not a when is the next (famous series video) I wanna have a video where I can stare at the wall and they feel my energy and vibe the same way I could be a Mr beast type video 😭
Thats a huge accomplishment. Here I am with 2 months in and only 15 Subs. Putting a lot of content out is good advice. I only have bandwith for 2 a month if so. But excellent Job. Good Luck!
You should try making shorts if that's something you're into. They allow you to create more content in less time. I checked out your channel and it looks great! You're doing really well so don't give up. Subs don't matter, telling the world what you feel called to tell them is what matters!
@LukeWylerPhotography thanks Man. Im debating the shorts, I have heard so many different stories about how they can mess up with your channel and the algorithm. So my plan was to have at least 30 videos out yet before doing shorts. But im not sure. Ive also seen others in my niche doing shorts. Thank you for the feedback. ✊🏼 😎
Yeah, opinions on shorts are so mixed. I wish I had the answer but I'm really just figuring everything out through trial and error. Whether short form or long form, I think the key is just keeping at it regardless of how fast you put out content. Good things come to those who just keep on going :)
awesome man! me and my business partner just made our channel 2 days ago got 4 subs so far but luck and views just aint on our side yet i am hoping RU-vid will push us more once we do more and longer vids we are putting our short films on here so i hope once we post the films and not the teasers we will do better but keep up the good work best of luck to you and everyone else here
RU-vid definitely pushes long form content. I've also found that more subscribers come from long form content than from shorts. I enjoy creating short form content so I'll continue to do it, but long form content is the way to grow. Wish you all the best!
I made a long form video, spent a whole weekend on it but it only got a handful of views while my shorts with little to no effort got like 400, breaks my brain lol
I've found that in the beginning views are very hit and miss. Some of my long form videos get 50 views, some get 2k. Just keep consistent and it'll happen! :)
Hmmm... it's strange that it's asking you to do that. There are certain features of RU-vid that you have to unlock by verifying your phone number, so that could be what's happening. I had to do the same when I started my channel. I think it just asked for phone number, not ID though. Let me know if it works for you! Best of luck!
Okay so I just Googled it and it turns out that RU-vid can run ads on any videos they want, they just only share the revenue with the creator if they are over 1k
