TH-cam can be very disheartening and knock you down when you videos flop and constantly make 10/10’s but I am leaving this comment here so that after some hours, days, weeks, months or years when someone likes or comment on it, I will be reminded to thank myself for NEVER GIVING UP!
I've been saying to never give up for two years. A few weeks back I did in fact give up... If your niche just happens to not be the exact same thing the algorithm now loves you will never grow... No matter consistency, quality of your content or even audience engagement... My audience engagement is amazing and has been for well over a year, resulting in many subs, despite the video's hardly showing up to anyone... The result is 2.6K subs, yet not even half-way the first tier of monetization... Stuck at 1400 watch hours for a year now and it's not changing. Every single video just flops... Even the ones that had a 30% clickrate and 70-80% AVD for a long time!
@@bbreak its most probably because your making videos in dutch or the non-english language u r using, make videos in english, and put dutch subtitles if u want
@El_Kenshi our language limits the target audience. However, making real life vlogs in English while living in a non-English country is really, really weird. You can't expect everyone around you to also speak English, so it would become an annoying mix of Dutch and English, not comfortable to listen to for anyone. Besides the audience engagement is better with the Dutch audience if the vlogs are Dutch and there's still a potential audience of 1-2 million people, besides us offering full English subtitles (we actually have quite a few subs who don't speak Dutch!). Either way, we quit. So thanks for the advice, but we're not putting any effort into this mission impossible anymore (except occasionally just for the fun of it).
🔥🔥🔥I hit 130k subs in 6 months using YT shorts. I first committed to 4 shorts per week. I tried to make each video better than the last. And then I got my first viral video about 4 months in with 24M views. That single viral video gained me 45k subs.
I just got started. How do I make shorts, is it jut that I upload short videos and they are automatically put in that category, or do I need to do something else?
I love that this story looks like it's "sweet old lady stumbles into success" but the reality is she's smart and capable and knew exactly what she was and is doing.
This is exactly right! I have been monetized for 8 months and I am still constantly learning. But I watch videos in the same niche and adjust and learn daily.
Just to be clear guys. Not all youtubers tell this. But your earnings depends on what country you live in and the country your videos are most watched and what CONTENT your channel IS ABOUT.. So don't be encouraged too soon and be discourage for this info im telling. Learn fRom her strategy and not from how she earns money. QUALITY before MONEY. and CHOOSE a CONTENT that MAKES You HAPPY and thus make it EASIER for you.
I reached 1k and 4000 hours in 6 months. Secret is consistency, improvement and a vision. I’m at 3.5k now. I haven’t any experience in TH-cam. I just love what I’m doing and investing on my channel :)
When she said "You have To learn, You have to learn" that is so true. I am a new youtuber and its not easy, however i await that day to come when i get MONETIZED. And with that being said, CONSISTENCY is key.
I just had one of my best days yesterday. As far as getting subscribers I got 25 in one day. I’m absolutely ecstatic and that’s totally just complete awesome sauce! As my favorite Time traveler says “great Scott”. 🎉🎉😂
I think in a way it’s better that Jen doesn’t have the a set up that’s too fancy or high-spec because it’s her relatability and genuineness that makes people feel like they can trust her and want to hear what she has to say. Really pleased for her.
That sense of connection to a TH-camr is definitely what makes all the difference. There are some creators I follow and whose advice I take when making videos but others whose style and delivery just makes me switch off immediately. I know it's about the message not the messenger but I just can't watch coaches who are constantly in your face, speaking rapidly or have that weird nervous energy.
@@WillowsAIAcademy yeah there's one creation coach whose approach is "why aren't you listening to me?" and has this very unsettling nervous energy about them. I can't watch their videos at all as they're so condescending.
I clicked accidentally but I’m glad I did. This video is exactly what I needed. I’m in the research phase right now as I work on finding a registered agent and getting a DBA. So your videos are definitely welcome.
it took me 13 months to monetize my channel, and it now been a year since ive been monetized and i still havent made £2800 in total 😭 shes absolutely rocking it 😎
i have over 140,000 subscribers & TH-cam was my full time job since 2010, and NOW im about to become homeless due to youtube, soooo all my time, effort, blood , sweat and tears down the drain all for nothing, all due to youtube changing up the website way to many times, youtube used to send out numerous notifications a day......now they only send out 3 a day, plus the algorithm is messed up as well, half my subs dont even get my videos anymore, its sad that this was my full time job & now i'll be homeless living in a tent in a couple of weeks!

Although this ladies niche is very different from our channels niche, we have incredible similarities in what we did to get monetized and make actual money off TH-cam (we did it in 6 months) You don’t need expensive equipment(We use our phones, a mic and a small tripod) We try to post every week.

Thanks for the great videos vidIQ!🤙
I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform. I am not beginner anymore, but I know how hard it can be (and honestly if I didn't use a lot of Fame- ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).
Wow, this is exactly what I needed! Your advice on monetization is spot-on and very detailed. Thank you for taking the time to share this valuable information. I can't wait to implement these strategies and see the results. Your content is always top-notch!
Im far from being monetized but keep going. If you’re reading this and just starting, don’t give up, you will get there. Biggest tip from anyone is consistency. Create a schedule and stick to it! Good job and keep it up y’all!
it's kinda surreal to think how much i used to watch this kind of video back in the past. I've gotten to a point where a new video will get me 30,000 watch hours and over a thousand subs in of itself. its amazing what hard work can do.
Its been 6 month, I have 832 subs and 4k watch hours, I’m almost there and I was so so damn consistent and still am, if its your passion then it should be a hustle, get there or die trying ( follow this mentality and you will be successful g
*This is exactly what happened with me and my Numismatic channel! From one single viral video, I reached 1K subs very fast and got monetized directly!* 😁😁😁
Nice! I like metals stacking because it's so simple, but I've always had respect for the numismatic guys because the depth of knowledge required is impressive, you probably learn a lot of history too. I'll check ya out.
@@drivingdaily582 I loved coins and banknotes since kid and this was my obvious niche choice. I've learned a lot new stuff since I started my channel and this was positive also for selling online.

I watched her monetization journey a few weeks back 😊. It definitely inspired me to keep going 🌸. And I can’t help but be a little bit proud that’s she’s a fellow BC (Canada 🇨🇦) dweller!
Thank you for all this information. I will come back to watch it again to learn more. I follow back to all my followers and watch their videos and see what I can learn from them and help my channel monetize soon.
In starting i was getting views but now views are getting lower and lower TH-cam is like a rollercoaster ride i am enjoying and i will improve my content and monitize my channel All the best to everyone ❤ We will make it together ❤
Same happened to me with my shorts. Look at my channel I was hitting up to 1.3 thousand views each video and then YT pulled the plug, dropped down to 3 or 4 views each even after 48 hours and those I took private. I have decided to stop all long form and concentrate on shorts. All my subs so far generated from shorts when those views were coming in. If YT would not have pulled the plug I could had been monetized in 6 months. Now that’s projected out to two plus years. I was going to quit and I’ve gotten a dozen emails to me saying do not quit this niche. Just grind away.
@@marlenelandstravels Yeah it’s like YT is suppressing small channels. My video from yesterday plus three other channels I saw they posted all at different times. All of our views are down by 95% on these vids and we all have different niche, all under 100 subscribers. If these huge content creators that have been doing this for 16 plus years decide they’ve had enough, YT is going to be up the creek without a paddle because they will lose ad revenue with small channels suppressed.
Thank you so much for the motivation VIDIQ! I haven't posted any video for over a year and procrastinating like crazy - that horse is totally at the fence! I've just discovered you and so glad I did! I may just get back at it, thanks to you! Here's to all us wee channels at home. We can do it!
I fully understand working all the time then making videos, definitely a lot to keep up with, but I think ots worth it. Ill check out your channel bro.
I know at least half my videos are good..i get a few subs each release but some videos i think the thumb and stuff are nailed i get no views or subs....btw i refunded police inside virtual reality for future fun cops and robbers 2024....im a VR guy now hahaha
Wow! Her video is actually what motivated my bride and me to start our channel. I am glad to see her get some recognition. Awesome! of all the millions of videos out there she passed both of our paths.
The rich are money-minded; that's a lesson I've grasped from the very beginning. My desire to build wealth has always been strong. I’ve set aside $160K since 2020, and I’m eager to invest it in the stock market to grow my financial future. I’d love to hear any recommendations you have.
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. But if you need proper advice, consider speaking with a financial expertise. Don't get me wrong, you can do it on your own, but financial advisors have a lot more knowledge and expertise in this area.
You are completely right, Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2022 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Teresa L. Athas’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
vidIQ has being my backbone. My channel has being gaining hundreds of thousands of views in short form content within the past 4 days. Thank you vidIQ ❤
I love you for the explanation.. I also watched her video. And sometimes I don't want to continue my channel but whenever I watch your video. I wanted to start over again. Thank you so much.
I have 583 videos only have 443 subs. I still have a long way to go to get monetized and like I said before I have now been doing this for almost 8 goddamn years.
I have a TH-cam channel that only posted about 11 videos and has about 600+ subscribers. I ran another channel and earned 150+ subs from just one video. What has this experience proven? It is a skill, a trainable muscle. Even the best videos can be improved.
If you spend time watching Jen's videos and get to know her, you'll quickly see she is far from ‘ordinary’. Her success on TH-cam is backed by her personality and life attitude.
Learned a bit about this and still learning so I can evolve and grow my channel and reach. I appreciate these kinds of informative videos that remind us to be more thoughtful. Thanks!
This was so inspirational. My niche is self-improvement, motivation, self-love and self-care. I am not getting much views. I have 367 subscribers. I watch vidIQ videos and videos of other content creators. Thank you so much for sharing this video. Great tips! I was making more videos but am making one video per week at present.
My niche is very small and doesn't get a lot of views and I'm okay with that. All I want to do with my channel is to create content that adds value and I'm passionate about my subject. I have only uploaded one video but I am in the process of creating the next 8 videos. I plan to release 5 of these at the same time and then 2 videos a week after that. Here's hoping I find my audience. Good luck everyone.
There's definitely a lot I personally can relate to here. I had a big drop-off in pretty much everything just a couple of weeks ago. Everything was going great and then... nothing. I was at that point where I could've just given up but as I enjoy what I do I decided to try and push through it. It took some time but my latest video got six times the views of my previous one. Still not as high as the usual 1000+ views I was getting and my Subscriber numbers haven't seen as big an uptick but I'm definitely doing better and hoping this is going to see a return to the performance I was reaching. On the subject of the ''viral moment'' and learning from it, given my breakout moment was a video called ''Naked for You'' (which despite sounding a bit like clickbait is actually a tender power ballad about allowing yourself to be vulnerable) got 48k views, mostly from 65+ year old men in India, I'm wondering if I'm on the right video streaming platform... ;)
Thanks for featuring Jen @silverandsolo - I stumbled on her channel and subscribed cuz I like the simplicity and straightforward content. Walking thru her steps on this channel is genius.
My first 4 weeks i got 1000 subs and my second month isn't over yet and I'm about to hit 10,000 subs. Very good channel start for me super happy about the results.
Been consistently making videos every day for about 3 months now and finally starting to see slight progress. It’s a grind for sure. If you are reading this I wish you and your channel all the success in the world 😊
I've had my channel for nearly 9 months now and I hit 1000 subs recently - your videos are definitely very helpful! I still have not gotten monetized as I don't have 4000 watch hours as I am primarily a shorts youtuber - but the shorts criteria is quite high. Anyone have any advice?
One of the biggest things to over come is that being consistent. With a full time job, a family and then content creation (mainly on Instagram, creating longer content (even if under 15 minutes) with more editing than a insta reel becomes a battle. Luckily I'm enjoying it and want to learn. Maybe that's the key too. But trying to find the time to make 2 videos a week, even 1 a week is really hard. My niche, is really nice. I have a food/protein disorder that effects 1 in 20,000. Those are not good watching numbers for a TH-cam platform, but what I do and share helps others and there is a small but tight community there. I may not get funds from those numbers on TH-cam, but I do make a difference. My next step, get a powerful computer for editing and a better camera and mic set up. I've spent the last year learning every day. Your videos help a lot!
I have my channel for almost 3 years and i only posted videos this week and as of now i am not getting a lot of views, but i hope we all make it and get monetized.
Hey really love your videos and your tips are really helpful! I did as you said and after just getting 10-20 views per video i made 2 video which both hit over 1800 views. Right now I'm trying to get into real editing software because I edited the videos with my smartphone and they're far away from the quality i want them to be. I will definitely watch more of your videos! Have a great day.
Thank you for talking about Jen today. You gave me hope and encouragement. I appreciate that. I can relate to her by not having editing skills or everything she said,but watching your vidIQ videos helps me understand and learn step by step those skills. I am growing my channel every day and I am still learning to improve and get monetize soon.Thank you. She is amazing!!!💖🤗
I have 28k subs and still not monetized,some days we have good views and other bad.what i also find strange is that when we promote a video TH-cam sends a lot of views and subs to my channel so there is audience but when you dont pay they cand send the audience.? But we are still going strong to get monetized😊
I hit 4,000 watch hours yesterday and hit 1k subs. Took 1 month. Technically I hit 2k subs but Ive had this channel for years and had 838 subs. Didnt upload for 5 years and started a different niche so its funny because on the day I passed 4k watch hours I hit 1,838 subs. This morning Im over 2k subs and 7k watch hours thanks VidIQ
love that you featured her, I came across her channel naturally on suggested video a 2-3 weeks ago and It was very inspirational for me to see her succes and her very easy going and very practical tips for new youtuber who watches videos like vidIQ and other big content creators which are super helpful but also at same level , discouraging as we start comparing our editing / visuals/ lighting/ story telling to these best ones! even though i dont miss a vidIQ video now! please continue featuring "ordinary" and "average" ppl who hit their goals and their strategies through their own story n success, as it helps us relate to them and this keeps us motivated!
Great video! Clear and straightforward steps on how to remove mugshots from the internet. It's really helpful for anyone looking to protect their online reputation. Thanks for sharing such valuable information!
Holy THANKS VIDIQ! Couldn't have done it without you!

Very cool, hoping the best to all of the growing TH-camrs out there! Stay with it!
This is probably the best yt advise I’ve seen. Thank you
Thank you for all this information. I will come back to watch it again to learn more. I follow back to all my followers and watch their videos and see what I can learn from them and help my channel monetize soon.
In starting i was getting views but now views are getting lower and lower TH-cam is like a rollercoaster ride i am enjoying and i will improve my content and monitize my channel
All the best to everyone ❤
We will make it together ❤
Sure buddy we will ♥
Same happened to me with my shorts. Look at my channel I was hitting up to 1.3 thousand views each video and then YT pulled the plug, dropped down to 3 or 4 views each even after 48 hours and those I took private. I have decided to stop all long form and concentrate on shorts. All my subs so far generated from shorts when those views were coming in. If YT would not have pulled the plug I could had been monetized in 6 months. Now that’s projected out to two plus years. I was going to quit and I’ve gotten a dozen emails to me saying do not quit this niche. Just grind away.
I still don't understand why this happens
I agree. Now I’m losing the yearly watch time because of this. Videos are much better but Views are much lower than last year! 😢
@@marlenelandstravels Yeah it’s like YT is suppressing small channels. My video from yesterday plus three other channels I saw they posted all at different times. All of our views are down by 95% on these vids and we all have different niche, all under 100 subscribers. If these huge content creators that have been doing this for 16 plus years decide they’ve had enough, YT is going to be up the creek without a paddle because they will lose ad revenue with small channels suppressed.
Thank you so much for the motivation VIDIQ! I haven't posted any video for over a year and procrastinating like crazy - that horse is totally at the fence! I've just discovered you and so glad I did! I may just get back at it, thanks to you! Here's to all us wee channels at home. We can do it!
TH-cam is hard and I'm full time law enforcement but i truly hope we all make it
Yes
Amen
I fully understand working all the time then making videos, definitely a lot to keep up with, but I think ots worth it. Ill check out your channel bro.
I know at least half my videos are good..i get a few subs each release but some videos i think the thumb and stuff are nailed i get no views or subs....btw i refunded police inside virtual reality for future fun cops and robbers 2024....im a VR guy now hahaha
Law enforcement. You would hate my content lol
Wow! Her video is actually what motivated my bride and me to start our channel. I am glad to see her get some recognition. Awesome! of all the millions of videos out there she passed both of our paths.
I hit 500 today! I am chuffed! I however have low long form view times. One battle down another being fought!
Congratulations. I'm struggling to reach 500😢
@@Dailycutedrawings it is bloody hard! I wish you the best my friend?
@@Eventswefilmed 🤞
@@Dailycutedrawings I just saw 2 months ago I have been over a year. You will do fine I am sure! That’s a good rate of subs in 2 months!
Awesome and wholesome content! And Rod is doing Gods work for TH-camrs starting off.
The rich are money-minded; that's a lesson I've grasped from the very beginning. My desire to build wealth has always been strong. I’ve set aside $160K since 2020, and I’m eager to invest it in the stock market to grow my financial future. I’d love to hear any recommendations you have.
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. But if you need proper advice, consider speaking with a financial expertise. Don't get me wrong, you can do it on your own, but financial advisors have a lot more knowledge and expertise in this area.
You are completely right, Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2022 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.
That's impressive! I could really use the expertise of this manager for my dwindling portfolio. Who’s the professional guiding you?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Teresa L. Athas’’ for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
Trying to do TH-cam full time with a full time job is way harder than I thought
@@NurseHODL good
vidIQ has being my backbone. My channel has being gaining hundreds of thousands of views in short form content within the past 4 days. Thank you vidIQ ❤
My views have gone up drastically thanks to your advice and I'm getting better every day 😊
I love you for the explanation.. I also watched her video. And sometimes I don't want to continue my channel but whenever I watch your video. I wanted to start over again. Thank you so much.
I have 583 videos only have 443 subs. I still have a long way to go to get monetized and like I said before I have now been doing this for almost 8 goddamn years.
work on your thumbnails and title
Oh this is injustice 😅
If you've been watching VidIQ, you should know why. Just the titles are atrocious.
I have a TH-cam channel that only posted about 11 videos and has about 600+ subscribers. I ran another channel and earned 150+ subs from just one video. What has this experience proven? It is a skill, a trainable muscle. Even the best videos can be improved.
For more luck, be sure to listen to my nightcores!
Thank you Rob! I'll keep trying!
If you spend time watching Jen's videos and get to know her, you'll quickly see she is far from ‘ordinary’. Her success on TH-cam is backed by her personality and life attitude.
Learned a bit about this and still learning so I can evolve and grow my channel and reach. I appreciate these kinds of informative videos that remind us to be more thoughtful. Thanks!
About to hit 13k subs - that’s in part down to Learning from VidIQ videos like this and just grafting over and over again.
I have been enjoying Jen's channel for a while, she has terrific advice all around
This was so inspirational. My niche is self-improvement, motivation, self-love and self-care. I am not getting much views. I have 367 subscribers. I watch vidIQ videos and videos of other content creators. Thank you so much for sharing this video. Great tips! I was making more videos but am making one video per week at present.
Lol I just recommended YOU and Jen to a friend of mine while I'm working to monetize my own Living in Hope the wolf you feed channel!
I got monetize last week and it took 18 months and 75 videos. It only took 1 video to get me the watch hours about a month ago.
Congratulations! Great job!
@@vidIQthx! 5 days after that all my impressions dropped by 90% on the videos that were doing great. Oh well, it’s one hurdle achieved 👍.
Jen is the reason I am starting my channel. I watched her series and will use her tips so it is interesting that you have highlighted her.
My niche is very small and doesn't get a lot of views and I'm okay with that. All I want to do with my channel is to create content that adds value and I'm passionate about my subject. I have only uploaded one video but I am in the process of creating the next 8 videos. I plan to release 5 of these at the same time and then 2 videos a week after that. Here's hoping I find my audience. Good luck everyone.
I loved the NOTE reading from your Manager!! Nice touch! Gave me an idea to do something similar.
There's definitely a lot I personally can relate to here. I had a big drop-off in pretty much everything just a couple of weeks ago. Everything was going great and then... nothing. I was at that point where I could've just given up but as I enjoy what I do I decided to try and push through it. It took some time but my latest video got six times the views of my previous one. Still not as high as the usual 1000+ views I was getting and my Subscriber numbers haven't seen as big an uptick but I'm definitely doing better and hoping this is going to see a return to the performance I was reaching.
On the subject of the ''viral moment'' and learning from it, given my breakout moment was a video called ''Naked for You'' (which despite sounding a bit like clickbait is actually a tender power ballad about allowing yourself to be vulnerable) got 48k views, mostly from 65+ year old men in India, I'm wondering if I'm on the right video streaming platform... ;)
You are absolutely right, experience is everything. Thanks for sharing
Thank you very much for sharing tips about making content❤❤❤
Thanks for this! Now I'm going to go watch all of your videos. I need LOTS Of help!
Thanks for featuring Jen @silverandsolo - I stumbled on her channel and subscribed cuz I like the simplicity and straightforward content. Walking thru her steps on this channel is genius.
I love Jen and watched all her monetization videos.
Congratulations to you channel
nice video , i am understand youtube better then before thanks to you.
My first 4 weeks i got 1000 subs and my second month isn't over yet and I'm about to hit 10,000 subs. Very good channel start for me super happy about the results.
@unleashedmystery do you use an ai voice or is it yours?
Awesome guide to everyone is a big help!❤❤❤
Gosh, I'm SO glad I found this channel! I watch Jen's channel. I LOVE her advice as I'm getting closer to my 50th (oof, did I just say that. haha)
Been consistently making videos every day for about 3 months now and finally starting to see slight progress. It’s a grind for sure. If you are reading this I wish you and your channel all the success in the world 😊
I always look forward to your tutorial because of your encouragement and reality to deal with it.
I've had my channel for nearly 9 months now and I hit 1000 subs recently - your videos are definitely very helpful! I still have not gotten monetized as I don't have 4000 watch hours as I am primarily a shorts youtuber - but the shorts criteria is quite high. Anyone have any advice?
One of the biggest things to over come is that being consistent. With a full time job, a family and then content creation (mainly on Instagram, creating longer content (even if under 15 minutes) with more editing than a insta reel becomes a battle. Luckily I'm enjoying it and want to learn. Maybe that's the key too. But trying to find the time to make 2 videos a week, even 1 a week is really hard. My niche, is really nice. I have a food/protein disorder that effects 1 in 20,000. Those are not good watching numbers for a TH-cam platform, but what I do and share helps others and there is a small but tight community there. I may not get funds from those numbers on TH-cam, but I do make a difference. My next step, get a powerful computer for editing and a better camera and mic set up. I've spent the last year learning every day. Your videos help a lot!
Best wishes for all new YT channels ✌️
Thanks 😁
Thank you , same to you 👍
Thank you 😊 you too
Thank you for this really helpful video. All the comments are so positive and uplifting ❤ have the best day all.
Just started my channel few weeks ago, hope im doing everything right 😅🙏
Just my two cents.. YOU will NOT learn anything, by doing everything right..
Hello brother, your sharing is very good and very useful. Like
To anyone seeing this dont give up ❤❤
Wish me luck too guys😊
@@eFootballoner we are going to succeed
I have my channel for almost 3 years and i only posted videos this week and as of now i am not getting a lot of views, but i hope we all make it and get monetized.
Hey really love your videos and your tips are really helpful! I did as you said and after just getting 10-20 views per video i made 2 video which both hit over 1800 views. Right now I'm trying to get into real editing software because I edited the videos with my smartphone and they're far away from the quality i want them to be. I will definitely watch more of your videos! Have a great day.
Thank you for talking about Jen today. You gave me hope and encouragement. I appreciate that. I can relate to her by not having editing skills or everything she said,but watching your vidIQ videos helps me understand and learn step by step those skills. I am growing my channel every day and I am still learning to improve and get monetize soon.Thank you. She is amazing!!!💖🤗
Hope everything goes generously well. Best of luck to all of us 😅
I have 28k subs and still not monetized,some days we have good views and other bad.what i also find strange is that when we promote a video TH-cam sends a lot of views and subs to my channel so there is audience but when you dont pay they cand send the audience.? But we are still going strong to get monetized😊
Thanks for the tips VidIQ! I just started posting videos 3 days ago, and I hope to be eligible for monetization before October 🤩🙏
Thank you for your support and help ❤❤❤
I hit 4,000 watch hours yesterday and hit 1k subs. Took 1 month. Technically I hit 2k subs but Ive had this channel for years and had 838 subs. Didnt upload for 5 years and started a different niche so its funny because on the day I passed 4k watch hours I hit 1,838 subs. This morning Im over 2k subs and 7k watch hours thanks VidIQ
love that you featured her, I came across her channel naturally on suggested video a 2-3 weeks ago and It was very inspirational for me to see her succes and her very easy going and very practical tips for new youtuber who watches videos like vidIQ and other big content creators which are super helpful but also at same level , discouraging as we start comparing our editing / visuals/ lighting/ story telling to these best ones! even though i dont miss a vidIQ video now! please continue featuring "ordinary" and "average" ppl who hit their goals and their strategies through their own story n success, as it helps us relate to them and this keeps us motivated!
Thanks
Keep striving!
I really want this to be happening with my channel 😅
Same here 😁
Great video! Clear and straightforward steps on how to remove mugshots from the internet. It's really helpful for anyone looking to protect their online reputation. Thanks for sharing such valuable information!
