Well this is a hot election year and you are a Pro-Trump channel promoting that the 2020 election was stolen and January 6th was an inside job. That's how it happened. Own it and enjoy it. I won't be watching but plenty of folks will.
@@unclemarksdiyauto dude is on TH-cam channel redacted with over a million subs and on rumble and has or had a TH-cam channel about how to live stream with the same amount of subs. I was subbed years ago. Him or Brian removed my comment about it. Dude is lying through the keyboard.
Another great video...you never disappoint Brian. A video at the same time every week for years I think is key. Like in the "old days" you would watch your favorite show on Thursday night at 9...I remember those days so I always tried to hit that mark. If I had done 2 videos a week I am not sure where I would be but I think I would have burned out. It's so much harder for good folks to break in now on TH-cam. Everybody's skill level is off the charts! Much love to you...your videos are deep and always make me think, Susan & Dez
Susan! Always such a pleasure to see your comment. Thanks for the great addition here. Consistency is so important. That’s for sure. Sending you peace and power, my friend.
I agree with you on all these points. I upload videos in the middle of the night sometimes and it don't matter at all. To many people listen to Mr Beasts advice but his advice don't really apply to most people on you tube. Canva is great... My opinion, If you like dogs and they like you, well then you have to be good people... keep feeding that poodle Brian.
Great video as always Brian. One other thing I just noticed lately is, the YT algorithm seems to prefer longer videos. A 20mins video will do a lot better than a 5mins video especially if you're a smaller creator with no subs and your fate lying mainly on the palms of the algorithm. Goodluck to everyone though, we all crawl before we can walk.
Nothing is ever certain in this world, my friend Friend. There are no guarantees on TH-cam. There are best practices. There are strategies and skills. We can learn both of which can help us succeed.
@@BriangjohnsonTv Absolutely Friend. How timely your reply is. Actually, just got my first video hit over 1k 2 days back and I'd agree with you there are definitely strategies and skills to be applied. Thanks for all and keep it up. Cheers!
That is the truth. We land not where are goals are set but where our systems take us. I always said your channel is where your experience level takes it. If you develop your skills the views will come.
Totally agree, Steve. It doesn’t always happen on our timeline, but it’ll happen sooner or later. Small steps add up to big things overtime as well. Have a great day brother.
IMHO there’s no rhyme or reason to any of it. If there were then I wouldn’t have gotten 20 million videos and 50K subs in 30 days from a simple video on a silly channel where we make shorts of our dog. 😂🤔🤷♂️
I try to upload once per week on the same day because that makes it easier for me. Since I'm a diy/craft channel a single video can take me days to record, then another half day for editing & thumbs etc. Great advice as always.
I have been trying everything but it looks like the algorithm chooses otherwise. Tried using shorts but they only deliver subs. Long forms don't move at all. Would love anyone with honest criticism. Thank you Brian for your awesome content man.
Tbh, I subscribed to your channel because you're saying a lot of facts and also no BS. Other so-called experts will just talk a lot of bs, and in the end, they'll ask for a fee to join their online course, so this kind of content turns me off. But, I learned something from u, by the way. And so, the algorithm also likes active creators, right?
Hey Brian I just wanted to say a Huge Thank You as your videos really helped me grow as a Creator, last week I smashed through the 100,000 subscribers. Thank you and keep the great videos coming so I can get to 1,000,000 ! ❤
👍 great advice Brian, sometimes fast videos can bring results that were not expected meanwhile the videos you work hard on for days, hardly moves the needle. We just have to keep uploading!
Loved that you highlighted the book Atomic Habits! I am doing a book study/book club with Atomic Habits and go live each Sunday covering a chapter a week! Next Sunday is chapter 8! I dig your tips and videos, Brian! 😊
Hi Brian ,I had shocking discovery when I left Japan for Finland and TH-cam started recommending my videos more immediately. And not only that my 4 k quality videos gets good quality even on shorts. And we have sufficient 4k upload speed in Japan so I lucked out and got rid of compression in Finland . Going to use this opportunity in full here before going back will upload my upcoming Japan autumn videos while in Finland. One thing bothers me and hoping to get advice is do I dare change my channel name since I am going in new direction and starting arctic nature series but still going to do my usual celebration stuff when time comes .Just worried about loosing my fateful few followers 😅
Keyword phrases list is great. My question is…doesn’t this change overtime? Viewers might be actively searching certain keywords for a while…but it might dwindle after a bit. If you didn’t make a video in that timeframe…you kind of missed the boat. So how long do you think you should keep those keyword phrases in your list? Or should you retest those terms to see if it’s still searched…before waisting time making a video once that ship has sailed ⛵️
Think of it more in terms of there’s always some people looking for a video based on this type of keyword phrase. When I make a video on this, those individuals are more likely to find my video because of it.
@@BriangjohnsonTv makes sense…I also tend to rerun a title idea (TubeBuddy) before making a video, to see if I still score favourably. Goes the other way too..what you might not have ranked for in the past you may now rank for. It’s always changing 😊
Hey Brian, love your videos. Working on my channel for about 8 months now with 56 videos and up and down success growing. I love that you don’t have a big microphone in your face. What microphone are you using and where is it in your videos to keep it out of picture. Thanks
My microphone is just about a foot in front of my mouth and above my forehead just out of frame. It’s a video mic go 2. Inexpensive fantastic sound for the money.
You were engaging and inspiring. Honestly I didn't learn much even though I watched the whole thing. The 1-4 was interesting but didn't clarify how knowing them can change clicks and watch time. I did like your conclusion and it did make me want to watch the next. So I guess for you that's a mission accomplished😊
Perhaps other videos on my channel will provide further clarification. It’s hard to hit all the details in depth and every single video. Regardless, thank you for the comment.
Thanks for the great tips. I really try to make videos that are entertaining , and I'm trying create a higher quality. I'm not good at teaching things so I'm not a "how to" kind of channel. Funny, a video I recently did received 300 views and 100% were men over 45. I find that weird.
@@BriangjohnsonTv ( Watcha working on next? ) Tools of the trade: Camera dos and don'ts? Long term goals...short term? Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches ? (plural) B roll organization? .....walking the puppies....
Brian put it together better than I could. At one point thumbnails don't really matter. You say, but MrBeast says they matter. Have you taken a look at MrBeast's thumbnails? They're not great. It's mostly him on the screen, and they look fake. But do they work? Yes, because it's him. You aren't MrBeast! Anyway, the point is that once your thumbnail system is really good-however you achieve that-individual thumbnails won't matter as much. You could spend ten weeks tweaking one for only a 0.1% higher click-through rate. It's not worth it! Now, if you know you have a banger of a video, by all means, spend more time on the packaging.
It’s very hard early when you’re getting started. There are so many videos on TH-cam. Competition is a real thing. But if you stick with it and strive to prove overtime, you can get there.
With my observation through studying the analytics, I must say for new channels, you will only get "junk" traffic. After compare Twitter and TH-cam engagement rates. Quite shocking to find Twitter has a stronger and more quality traffic. (With everything the same: thumbnail, title, description etc..) One shocking find was TH-cam sent out 24 impressions with 0 view whereas Twitter sent out 29 impressions with 10 views (7 of them watched the video).
If you follow breast practices, you may be amazed at what happens in terms of traffic. Comparing one platform to another is like apples and oranges. Two different things. Sending you peace and power, my friend.
I honestly have ZERO idea what I did but somehow the algorithm just started loving my channel. I'm happy but wish I knew why so I could understand.
Congrats on making it happen, my friend.
Aren’t you on redacted on rumble and have another youtube channel about live streaming or something like that.
Well this is a hot election year and you are a Pro-Trump channel promoting that the 2020 election was stolen and January 6th was an inside job. That's how it happened. Own it and enjoy it. I won't be watching but plenty of folks will.
I hope I figure that out as well, but I have a long way to go to hit your number of subscribers.
