Are you RESTARTING a channel? WHY? Are you RE-BRANDING an old channel? WHY?!
@CalieFaeryl
@CalieFaeryl 4 года назад
As I mentioned to you before, I have another channel made specifically for 3D art and animation. I have no plans on getting rid of this channel simply because I am all over the place on youtube, I value the subscriptions I have have with it to give me various things I look for. I want to keep the new one strictly for the 3D and maybe Canadian stuff, and not have tons of subscriptions I have to weed through to find what I am looking for. Also because I keep it regulated, I only get suggestions related to how I use that channel. On a side note, we both mentioned the Paint Shop Pro program, I have discovered Krita, which is free and you don't need a pen tablet to use it, it also gives Photoshop a run for it's money, many Photoshop stuff works in Krita. You should check it out.

I'm rebranding my channel right now, going from action-comedy shorts in Greek (from when I used to be a kid) to Tech/Programming/Machine Learning/Entertainment (in English) and I've noticed that RU-vid is suggesting my new videos on the videos related to my old content, which does not make any sense and I believe prevents the channel from getting the exposure from the new audience I'm now looking for. I've only updated 3 new videos of the new content so far, so I'm hoping it will be resolved soon.

I wonder if that will happen with my videos over time. I see for my new niche some people with 20 followers get thousands of views and my videos get 0 even though I have 400 subs. It feels like my videos are not shown to the people that are interested into this kind of content I am doing but to my old potential viewership and I am not sure if my account will ever adjust.

Also have ANOTHER channel for my podcast as well haha Again really appreciate this video and how I should rebrand and go forward!

Thanks Alan. The same question has been on my mind for about a month now. Yes, I am definitely rebranding my old, half-dead channel (since 2010).😅 I used to upload my work activities regularly, then I got tired. With the coming of covid, I stayed home all the time. One day Mr RU-vid sent me an email telling me they have stopped monetizing my pitiful channel because of inactivity. 😥 I have 3,132 subscribers, 4,018 views in the last 28 days, and almost 2 million views since 2010. Three days ago I found out I have $79.63 in Adsense. Now I am fired up. And your video motivate me to rebrand my channel. Thanks again, Alan. 😀 I am now your subscriber.

I'm pivoting /rebooting my channel and also kind of killing off things I used to do and moving them to a new channel to help focus my channel better but also give myself an outlet should I want to create a piece of content that doesn't fit under my current channel and also see what it's like to start a channel from scratch. I decided to walk away from it while I was doing comic cons and other in person art events to get a clear head from what I've been doing the last 13 years. And honestly it's amazing what walking away can do to give you perspective towards what's working and what's not. Granted it tough not posting, but the clarity I've gotten is what I appreciate right now. In the meantime, I've been recording in bulk with the intention of freeing up my time in September to focus on doing research for my new drawing series in October for Inktober about latin cryptids instead of flying by the seam of my pants like I normally do. I guess I'm trying to go by the work smarter, not harder. This week I started creating intros and outros for my videos in preparation of releasing videos come September with the hope that the structure will help me be able to create the bigger projects I want to.

Perfect video. My current RU-vid channel was created one year after RU-vid was invented and has over a million views over the years. I now want to create a new channel that would have more specific content to my niche but with that I would be starting from the bottom. I probably would be limited in making long form videos until I reached say 1,000 followers. After watching this video, it makes more sense for me to keep my current channel and just put the new specific content on there. If need be I could delete or make certain old videos private or unlisted. A part of me does want to start a new channel but the building process could take a while to years if I’m starting from scratch.

So I started my channel in 2006... Published a few videos and didn't look at it for years... when I did look years later I realized that those few vids had a few hundred thousand views... So around 2014 I started publishing more regularly, but only once every couple of weeks... Now, I am all in and really want to build the channel, but have been struggling with RU-vid simply ignoring my vids and not suggesting them to new audiences. My subs watch... I get about 1k views... then it tends to die off. So I've been wondering since my channel is so old, has the algorithm at some point flagged my channel as an old channel that was non-active ...and now, no matter what I do or how much I publish, it will not push my content? Do you think there is any merit to that? The channel is currently at 10.8K subs. I am terrified to erase all the work I have put into the channel and start all over.

Good advice as usual... as you know, some months back I decided to merge multiple channels and concentrate just on my primary one, so in my case because the others were somewhat established at least; I ended up removing any duplicate videos of course (which was a case of my own Channel fighting against my own Channel for views!) & only left the ones that have absolutely no place on my main channel, and on my alternative channels I put up an individualised video explaining the reasons and inviting people to my main channel - I think that's a better option than deleting it (in my case)👍

I don't want to start a new channel for the travel vlogs but I don't want to lose my art followers' interest either because the 2 topics are not really related so... I've trying to think of a way to merge both with maybe a tutorial integrated into my travel vlog videos (think 'we're visiting A and now B, and now I'm taking a break to do some art (tutorial), then let's go visit C'' kind of thing)... Is that stupid? What do you think? I hope you have a better suggestion ;-)!!!

Amazing video! Really helpful! I'm struggling because I decided to start do make videos in English, since today I always uploaded videos in italian, and I didn't know if I should start a new channel or pivot the current one! After this video I think I will carry on with the current one!

You have no idea how you just saved my channel. I was deleting some content when a notification come on RU-vid and I started to watch rebrand content because I started my channel 3 months ago doing funny videos now I want to niche down to video editing and photoshops manipulation and I was thinking maybe I should change or delete. So thank you again you totally saved my channel.

I really wasn't sure what I was going to do with mine. I do art stuff and I had stopped for 3 years because life happened but I've learned and experimented so much through those years I was wanting to upload again. I didn't know what was best for me but you and others have said for my situation is to keep it as I'm still doing the same type of content. So I'll keep at it and try new things but not too new

You've confirmed exactly what I've been thinking all along. Going to pivot what I've got! Guess I have a lot of work to do continuing to create new content and giving a facelift to the old.

It has definitely grown since my I decided to focus on specifics and put in much more effort into making it successful. Now I have to wait and see. Thanks for your awesome insight Alan.

10-year-old channel here! I should be further along by now... not giving up on this one! Yep, just like a few others, my content is a little bit scattered. The positive of having an older channel is appearing 1st or 2nd in Google video search on a few vids...

Before watching this video I was thinking about starting a new channel because I uploaded about 180 videos on this one and I only got 620 subscribers. That's because my videos have always been all over the place. But lately I came up with a new idea that has nothing to do with anything I've ever uploaded on this channel, and so I wanted to give it a fresh start with a new channel. Your video though made me change my mind and understand that it's better to restart from 620 than from 0. Thank you for the great insight :)

I recently rebranded my old, inactive channel and it's difficult to tell if it was helpful or not (versus starting a new channel). My channel was 10 years old (active 2006-2010) and had about 2.5k subs at the peak. Back then I was making videos of me playing video game music on piano. Now 10 years later, I wanted to make video game let's plays with my wife and some other gaming commentary content. I originally was going to start a new channel but there seemed to be unanimous advice on the interest to just rebrand. So that's what I did. New images, new channel name and description, and uploaded the first new video. I've been posting about 3x videos a week for one month now and it kind of feels like starting a new channel, though I'm not really sure how to judge results since people still view my old videos. I also don't know what is typical for brand new channels in 2020. The new content seems to only be getting 10-20 views on average with little to no engagement. I do wonder if it would have been better to just start new to more easily see organic growth and know that my audience was interested in the new content, versus the old. That being said, some have told me that I just need to give things time for the channel to shake itself out and adjust to the new content. Either way, I'm excited to be making new videos again and I'll hope for the best!
@gamerkitti
@gamerkitti 3 года назад
Since both channel brands were for gaming, there's no reason to start a new channel. If you are getting 10-20 views, I would research what games are popular and make sure to get honest feedback on your content.
@frankied14
@frankied14 3 года назад
@@gamerkitti Thank you for this good advice! We mostly are playing older games now but we definitely recognize the importance of trending games. We are keeping that in mind and eventually want to play something newer or more trending in the future. I also agree a lot with you on getting honest feedback. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts - I appreciate it a lot!

Does the RU-vid algorithm react negatively if you rename your channel multiple times? Do subscribers still get notifications if you change your channel's name, or do they need to hit the bell icon again?

I am proud to announce that I am re-branding my old RU-vid channel of 14 years baby! I actually own 2 old RU-vid channels with this one I'm using now being the oldest. I created this channel in August of 2006 and my other channel in 2010. This channel has even gotten a new name which is now called, I can SPEAK. I will be documenting my journey to learning the Italian language on it very soon. before it was called Gurltime where I would upload videos of my son as a baby. It is so awesome to own really old channels. It makes me feel special that I do because it represents that I am apart of when RU-vid was just starting out. lol I wouldn't recommend deleting an old account, Its apart of history.
