Started my channel in 2018 and for 5 years straight I was stuck at 24 subs barely getting any views, I was pretty much dead in the water, 2023 I really tapped into my creativity, had some dope ideas, got better at my craft, then started seeing growth, going into 2024 I steadily grew to around 400 subs, now heading into 2025 i’m currently at 1.2k subs and monetized, it’s time for us smaller channels to win
I wish you all the best. I'm basically at the start of my TH-cam journey but I haven't told my family because they will just gossip and spread my business all over the place, especially my aunties. They would ask me 1,000 nitty gritty detailed questions but wouldn't sub me, lol
Had my channel for years. Posted lots but not consistently and not for a while. Low subs and views. Did a livestream for the first time in ages the other day and had WAY MORE viewers than usual! I’m excited for this new algorithm 😊
@ I didn’t promote it at all, that was the strange thing. I’ve done a couple more since I commented this and haven’t got back to the same high numbers I got that night but not as low as I used to get either so I’m happy
Jason Lee thank you I took your advice and just started my first TH-cam channel “A Gentleman’s Thought” and I’m proud of it whether it is a success or a flop, I at least took the first step. I always tell myself it’s not who we are now but what we will become. Thank you for the encouragement. Hope everyone be safe and be kind to one another. Keep class and chivalry alive my friends. ❤
Great content, thank you. I started my channel just 3 months ago. It’s a silent vlog where I find joy in the mundane. My favorite part is the positive connections I’m making with people all over the world. ♥️
This was SO helpful and motivating! Thank you for sharing this. I’m a VERY small channel, revolved around working in healthcare (I’m a travel nurse), beauty, and life style. Praying for us small TH-camrs! We’ve got this y’all🩷🫶
New TH-camr here! I've been having so much fun with this! 52 years old and just getting started. 110 subscribers and I've felt more alive than ever! Keep up the great work everyone!
"Take that first step. Make that first video." Just posted my 1st YT video on December 13, 2024. Currently have 2 subscribers. Let's see how it will go. Thank you for this helpful video. 🙂
I’ve been a producer and actor for 6 years now. I’ve always wanted to start a channel documenting my experiences and journey, but haven’t made the first step. I’m about to film a new thriller movie in April as the lead character and I will finally take the leap to start my channel! Thanks for the push!
Subscribers, in my opinion, do matter if you want to work with brands. When I had 50k subs nobody would work with me. As soon as I passed 150k subs my email started getting flooded with requests. I now work with tons of brands and affiliate companies all around the USA. I can't keep up with all the work as there are products being delivered to my house 3-4 days out of each week. At this point I need to hire a team. Keep uploading and be consistent. It WILL grow your channel if you do.
I'm so happy to see this! I've had my channel since before the YPP became so 'regulated' lol but never posted much. Started off this year posting more content on my channel and this is encouraging. 🎉
I just started my TH-cam Channel and Podcast last month on 12/17 and already have 33 subscribers! 🎉 I love the tips you shared I’m going to start to incorporate this for the month of January! 😃 praying all new TH-camrs to not give up!!! 🙌🏼
Small channels stay strong & determined. The only real failure is giving up. Remember success will take time but being consistent makes the difference. We all start off somewhere whether that being 0 or 100 subs, but if you dedicate the hard work into growing you’ll see results🙌
Thanks for the positive encouragement! you're right when you said "nobody cares about your hair, your accent, etc".. I follow all sorts of people who do things that annoy me at times, but I dont care about those things, I still enjoy their content. Much appreciated insight and advice here, many blessings!
Can’t agree more with your words. I started my TH-cam channel in August, then I decided last month to do a daily vlog of my life and everything I’m doing (from my future business to my expertise in dogs). Really easy edit, filmed with the first generation of OSMO Action. And the results blows my mind. Right now I’ve almost 15k views, 650 watched hours, and 70 subscribers gained in the last few weeks. I’m not trying to promote my channel because it’s in Italian. I’m just saying to all the small channel: keep pushing!! Upload and don’t give up!
I’m new to TH-cam. Started 8 days ago to show my fitness journey. I went from 250 lbs to 190 lbs. This video gives me the confidence to keep trying to grow!!!! Thanks for the help!
Thank you so much! You gave me the little extra push to start working on my own TH-cam channel ❤️ I posted my first video today! After being scared for so long... starting 2025 on a positive note 😊
I’ve been consistently uploading content for nearly two years now, with over 500 videos and a growing community of 2,000 subscribers.Starting this journey has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Thanks for the tips Jason!
I started my TH-cam channel years ago and gave up quickly because there was no motivation. I have started again with consistency. Now I have 269 subscribers. Growing slowly. This is the advice I was looking for right now. Thank you 😇
This is awesome! I’m new and trying to maintain who I am while walking through my fertility journey. Authentic is the way to go. I’m tired of fake as well and it feels good to be a small channel who is not faking the “perfect”
Great story, and I am happy to see you are satisfied. Being a TH-camr is very similar to running your own business. You should upload things people want to see, just like businessman should offer product/service that people need. And when the growth becomes real, you can consider hiring people to help you run your channel more efficiently. The most difficult part is starting and growing of course, but consistency and hard work (with a little bit of help from Fame - ster of course) will always pay off at the end.
I stupidly deleted all 3 of my videos and about 15 of my shorts the other days because I wanted to start fresh but watching this video has made me want to just create content whilst not worrying about views or anything and fully just focus on my target audience and giving them the best content & education possible
This is the mindset I'm trying to adopt and implement into my YT channel I started 3 months ago. 59 Subs right now. 5 videos. Podcast talking about mindset and self-improvement. Documenting my journey
I’ve made the decision to get back on track with my channel! I’ll upload my first video of a series sharing my experience in Krakow, Poland (as a black woman). Thank you for inspiring me!
I'm so happy I found your video because I just posted my first TH-cam video about a week ago. I can confirm that TH-cam is helping us small creators because the feedback and views on my first video exceeded my expectations! I'm so excited and focused on creating here on TH-cam in order to see where it could take me... I had to subscribe to your channel because you were so right and I like the way you share real information from real experience! Thank you!
This is a great video. I’ve had my TH-cam channel for a very long time, but finally just a few months ago, made a commitment to share the knowledge that I have accumulated over the last 20 years in fitness. It’s such a relief when you talk about how we don’t need fancy cameras, etc. People just want to learn from us. 2025 is going to be a big year!!
Started to finally commit to TH-cam and started seeing people starting to subscribe more than ever. All it takes is for one video to get lucky enough for the YT algorithm to push your channel out to others. Keep it up, everyone; we will get there one day.
Started my channel 2 months ago! thank you so much for this video, I've got so many realizations 😁 wishing everyone's success here! Let's keep creating! ✨️
This is just what I needed. After so many years of thinking to start an art TH-cam channel I finally made one a couple months back. This really boost my motivation on actually recording what I do, so Thank you!!
10:24 thank you so much for sharing this information. I had all but given up on watching any videos like this because once I would start watching them, anyway no one’s ever explain things the way you have. All of this is so fascinating and I would love to learn more. Thank you for making these videos.
Thanks for the video and call to action! I started my channel 4 years ago, but I've only published a couple of videos. Thanks to your video, I'm starting my journey today. Let's gooooo!!!
I’m creating a safe space here for people to open up and share their true self’s. I feel like we so often suffer so quietly and feel so alone and I’m building a community here that’s truly for the free thinkers, a non judgmental space where we can brainstorm, let it all out, talk things through and so forth. I put all of my heart and soul and vulnerability into it and am so grateful that it slowly grows. For real, just touching and lightening up one other persons life makes my heart expand. I am grateful for this video. Thank you so very much!! 😊❤
Thank you for the encouraging words! I started my TH-cam channel in 2022 but didn’t really post videos until last month , short videos about our passion for sustainable living . I’m not sure if short videos would really help me grow my channel. But I am excited to share so many ideas in the future.
I love this. I just checked out your pork and shrimp spring rolls and now im enticed to try it out haha. Subbing so I can show my grandma who loves to cook some of your videos
I started my YT channel last year but not consistently posting. I will try my best to post consistently and to all small TH-cams out there, keep going! We got this! ✊🏻
I'm just starting to be more consistent with my channel. I have 70 subscribers. Seems tough to get going but i'm going to be consistent with the content. I just bought 10 acres in central america so i'll be documenting a lot of that and posting to my channel. ON top of my healthy food and exercise videos. Thanks fro sharing.
That was the last push we needed! Tomorrow we’re filming our first YT vid, we’ve been talking about this for 2 years (only posting tiktoks) - Thank you, hopefully we’ll make it🤝🏻
This is so encouraging! Thanks for breaking down the content you're seeing. I love all the new creators down here in the comments! My first video was the other day and the sound is terrible, lol! I just needed to start and rip the band aid. Anyway, I like that you're seeing small creators on your home page, we need your eyes too!
I just checked out your video and you are very refreshing! I didn’t think your sound quality was terrible, even though it’s great to improve on sound -I wouldn’t have ever thought of yours as terrible. Your first video is a lot higher quality than most first videos I have seen!
The only thing I noticed that you could maybe improve on is your camera angle. It seems a bit too low. And that you’re more to the side rather than the center. And maybe the camera is a bit too close. It could maybe be helpful to watch videos that give tips on this :) but it’s such a wonderful video for your first video! I’m really grateful you made it
@@user-zl2gf2jh1m Yes, there are things I will do differently moving forward :) Keeping everything really simple with my iPhone for now. Am looking at videos with tips for that 🙌
I agree with everything you said, and thething is that no matter what kind of content you make nowadays, you can easily go viral (you have to use a lot of Fame- ster of course).
This video would definitely help me keep going! I started TH-cam 3 months ago and have been grinding almost every day. Sometimes I think about giving up, but we’ve got this! Keep going, guys, we can do it! ✊
Switched my small channel to focus on my art growth journey and I’ve already started gaining more subscribers and views. It’s working thanks for the tips!
Wow. I just signed up for the toolbox and scrolled through it really quick. This looks like it will be an extremely valuable resource for a small business! I'm just getting started by selling handmade goods and items produced from and grown in my garden. Im hoping to learn a lot from your resources!
Jason, I've been at it for 18 grueling months, but I finally broke through the GRIND with success on my channel with Shorts and Long-form over the past 3 months, got monetized and the ad sense is pretty substantial especially once you figure out how to make a Short go viral over 1M views and of course long form as well. I hear you loud and clear on the other ways of making money and the passive income can be a real money maker! Great advice, BUT I STILL THINK PEOPLE UNDER ESTIMATE SHORTS!
@@tlsimpsonenterprises Thanks, I'll keep it simple, give the viewer a problem and a solution! It's that simple I promise. Play with the time I have success with 20 sec and 35-39 seconds. Give it a try! Once you give the viewer the pay off end the video immediately! Good luck!
Really glad that I found this video. I have been wanting to do talking head videos but I’m just too camera shy. But now, this video made me consider everything I have been doing so far and the changes that I need to make in order to grow as a creator. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for your encouragement. I started uploading videos two months ago and today it reached 100 subscribers, mostly my family and friends but the number of views are not that great. Let's see how it goes!
small new channel here!! i realized i was spreading myself too thin and trying to do too much. i want to sing and be a fitness instructor, and make music with my friends. but i went to school for entrepreneurship and i believe i have a calling to teach other people how to start their own business, change your mindset to allow abundance, and scale it. this will be my new focus as I hone in on my niche so i can follow all my subsequent passions once i get to the freedom of not having to rely on a 9 to 5 to keep my lights on and groceries in my fridge. sending love to everyone on their journey
Law of attraction..... the universe provides the how, you just focus on the feeling of the goal that you want to achieve. Speak it into existence. Because that creates the frequency shift that creates your reality.
Decided to really take TH-cam seriously and started fresh Nov 19th, I made a challenge to myself to post 1 video a day to train on my consistency with the goal of making each video better than my last (in the sense of entertainment & value). Let’s see how this plays out, we are 18 days in and I wish nothing but the best for all the small creators out here!
I set up my TH-cam channel sooo long ago now & have been terrified to post my first video 🥴 2025 i’m going all in 🙌🏽 it’s time to post ya’ll! get that fear out & keep going!! 💪🏽
i’m 3+ years on TH-cam and have not reached 4 k watch time, yet I’m still here. Keep going, guys, don’t give up! Best wishes to all the small channels out Let’s go!
so many cooking channels dont speak or show themselves and they do well. alot of people actually prefer if the creator isnt speaking or in the camera & those channels have subs in the millions. so, even tho you prefer her to speak, its not necessary for growth. she should create whatever content she feels best making. @@MeersMedia
I've seen channels ignore the comments suggestions for years, because it's THEIR channel and they do things THEIR way (even when certain suggestions repeat). Then after years sometime, they finally try the suggestions and indeed gain subs exponentially. Rach.....take their advice. They TRULY wish you the best.
Nice video!! I joined TH-cam three years ago but had to take a break due to a medical emergency in the family. After a long hiatus, I started again just two months ago. Now, I’m back to sharing my love for food and the joy of cooking🍳
Another small channel here - started mine a few months back and while its been a slow start, I constantly love to see how the quality of my videos have been progressed even when it can be about random camera topics - loving the journey!
My man, you have no idea how much I was needing to hear this, I’m starting my photography journey and I’ve been petrified about the first video of me teaching or just showing my journey, you have given me not just the motivation but more importantly, the wake up call to start this and let the bs on a side and don’t let it stop me. Most probably I’ll be recording the video on this weekend. I’ll have my first video talking especially about how hard was it to create my first video. 🙏🏽🙏🏽.
Pretty cool advice!! Thank you! I just recently got serious with TH-cam and everything you are saying is true! I always try to make things look perfect which they don’t! 😅and then I don’t put the content out! I appreciate your encouragement ❤❤❤
I have a small 80s & 90s pop culture and nostalgia channel. That may be too narrow of a niche, but I’m having fun a little over 50 videos in. It’s introduced me to some really cool people already, and there’s great value in that alone! Keep it up everyone!
Started my channel - which has calming music to reduce tension, stress, anxiety keep you in a atate of calm. Will also be providing guided meditation and hypnosis to help tou achieve your goals. Wishing everyone success on their channel's.
I just passed 11,000 subscribers, mostly through shorts videos. But I’m still light years away from monetizing! I’ll just keep plugging away and learning until I finally reached that goal. Good luck to everyone.
@@lawrencemeh yes unfortunately. We may just be doing this wrong, but we are very far from qualifying for the partnership program. Most of our videos are shorts. To qualify to make money from ads on shorts, we would need 10 million views in 90 days. We’re slightly under 1 million, which puts us very far from monetizing.
Thank you for your advice ! Your advice made me feel I can crack on TH-cam too . Been on this journey past 3 years now . Still trying to figure out the shorts content ! Thank you again !
Oh the support is so good, I love seeing channels grow with their community and their TH-cam video styles!! You are soooo right about viewers and making more videos. My goal 2025 is to upload 2x videos per month! Let’s see how I go 🎉🎉🎉🎉.
Yeah good advice 🎉I also start my channel like one month ago and don't get views no much Subscriber and everyday thinking of give up but after listening you I feel some hope and I hope every small channel get success ❤Ameen 🤲

👏🏽 👏🏽
😢😮😅😊
I thought you had to have 4K subs before you could moniteze?
Posted my first video on Dec 1st. It's about life truths. 12 views, 3 subs (all family) lol. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the great advice!
I wish you all the best. I'm basically at the start of my TH-cam journey but I haven't told my family because they will just gossip and spread my business all over the place, especially my aunties. They would ask me 1,000 nitty gritty detailed questions but wouldn't sub me, lol
Cheers to that! Posted my first last month. Traveling this month and will be posting a lot more in 2025. Let’s do it!

It’s not a update happened this year.

TH-cam journey is hard but its worth to do it ❤❤❤❤
This was such an amazing video Jason. Thank you for sharing such incredible knowledge with the TH-cam community. I had many aha moments here.
I’m going to try this for sure! This is going to be our year! Let’s keep going! I’m at 170 subs right now but I’m striving for more next year!
Yes. I love that. It’s inspiring!
congratulations!
This is a great video. I’ve had my TH-cam channel for a very long time, but finally just a few months ago, made a commitment to share the knowledge that I have accumulated over the last 20 years in fitness. It’s such a relief when you talk about how we don’t need fancy cameras, etc. People just want to learn from us. 2025 is going to be a big year!!
Started my channel a couple of months ago! I’m an international PhD student in US, will be sharing about my life, travel vlogs, research, etc.!
Thank you, this was so helpful to me. You're really good at this!
Started to finally commit to TH-cam and started seeing people starting to subscribe more than ever. All it takes is for one video to get lucky enough for the YT algorithm to push your channel out to others. Keep it up, everyone; we will get there one day.
Started my channel 2 months ago! thank you so much for this video, I've got so many realizations 😁 wishing everyone's success here! Let's keep creating! ✨️
Just subscribed! Your channel seems right up my alley and so beautiful ❤
This is just what I needed. After so many years of thinking to start an art TH-cam channel I finally made one a couple months back. This really boost my motivation on actually recording what I do, so Thank you!!
All the best in your journey! 🙌🏽
@@tlsimpsonenterprises Same goes to you! 👍
I’m just starting my TH-cam journey. Thanks for the advice.
10:24 thank you so much for sharing this information. I had all but given up on watching any videos like this because once I would start watching them, anyway no one’s ever explain things the way you have. All of this is so fascinating and I would love to learn more. Thank you for making these videos.
Thanks for the video and call to action! I started my channel 4 years ago, but I've only published a couple of videos. Thanks to your video, I'm starting my journey today. Let's gooooo!!!
Thanks for being real here. Your advice helps.
I’m creating a safe space here for people to open up and share their true self’s. I feel like we so often suffer so quietly and feel so alone and I’m building a community here that’s truly for the free thinkers, a non judgmental space where we can brainstorm, let it all out, talk things through and so forth. I put all of my heart and soul and vulnerability into it and am so grateful that it slowly grows. For real, just touching and lightening up one other persons life makes my heart expand. I am grateful for this video. Thank you so very much!! 😊❤
Thank you for the encouraging words! I started my TH-cam channel in 2022 but didn’t really post videos until last month , short videos about our passion for sustainable living . I’m not sure if short videos would really help me grow my channel. But I am excited to share so many ideas in the future.
Short video is also good ❤❤❤

I love this. I just checked out your pork and shrimp spring rolls and now im enticed to try it out haha. Subbing so I can show my grandma who loves to cook some of your videos
I’ve just relaunched my channel and I'm on the grind to 4,000 hours! 😄 Thank you for all your valuable wisdom!
Me too we will make it
@@Lissa_frost Yes girl!! 😘😘 Keep going, we got this! 🦾

I started my YT channel last year but not consistently posting. I will try my best to post consistently and to all small TH-cams out there, keep going! We got this! ✊🏻
When you say "consistently", how frequently do you plan to post per week?
yes sirr
It depends, for Shorts 5/10 per day@@howdoesitgetbetter
Subscribed! Love the look of your content so please try and keep consistent ❤
You got this!
I'm just starting to be more consistent with my channel. I have 70 subscribers. Seems tough to get going but i'm going to be consistent with the content. I just bought 10 acres in central america so i'll be documenting a lot of that and posting to my channel. ON top of my healthy food and exercise videos. Thanks fro sharing.
That was the last push we needed! Tomorrow we’re filming our first YT vid, we’ve been talking about this for 2 years (only posting tiktoks) - Thank you, hopefully we’ll make it🤝🏻
Good luck
❤
This is so encouraging! Thanks for breaking down the content you're seeing. I love all the new creators down here in the comments! My first video was the other day and the sound is terrible, lol! I just needed to start and rip the band aid. Anyway, I like that you're seeing small creators on your home page, we need your eyes too!
I just checked out your video and you are very refreshing! I didn’t think your sound quality was terrible, even though it’s great to improve on sound -I wouldn’t have ever thought of yours as terrible. Your first video is a lot higher quality than most first videos I have seen!
The only thing I noticed that you could maybe improve on is your camera angle. It seems a bit too low. And that you’re more to the side rather than the center. And maybe the camera is a bit too close. It could maybe be helpful to watch videos that give tips on this :) but it’s such a wonderful video for your first video! I’m really grateful you made it
@@user-zl2gf2jh1m Yes, there are things I will do differently moving forward :) Keeping everything really simple with my iPhone for now. Am looking at videos with tips for that 🙌
I agree with everything you said, and thething is that no matter what kind of content you make nowadays, you can easily go viral (you have to use a lot of Fame- ster of course).
my content is not suggested lol
What is "Fame-ster"...?

Thank you for this empowerment ❣️
Motivation. I am preparing to execute my channel once I can gather equipment.
This is really encouraging, I just started posting my dj videos and seeing you explain how the algorithm changed is going to help me keep it going!
This thing just motivated me I am currently on 6 subscribers and trying to create as good as I can, we all will make success insha Allah
This video would definitely help me keep going! I started TH-cam 3 months ago and have been grinding almost every day. Sometimes I think about giving up, but we’ve got this! Keep going, guys, we can do it! ✊
you're doing better than i am, I'll have a year in January and have the same subs as i do.
@ We will reach the top soon brother! Keep it up!👊
You’ve got this! Keep going
@@gossipgob thanks man!!
Switched my small channel to focus on my art growth journey and I’ve already started gaining more subscribers and views. It’s working thanks for the tips!
great video, straight to the point, no bs, no time wasting and trying to shill anything, just giving info. what a info video should be
Wow. I just signed up for the toolbox and scrolled through it really quick. This looks like it will be an extremely valuable resource for a small business! I'm just getting started by selling handmade goods and items produced from and grown in my garden. Im hoping to learn a lot from your resources!
We got this everyone! Small channel here! we share our introverted life with our 2 kittens. cozy vibes ❤✨️Can't wait to see everyone grow!
I started a year ago and loving it so far. Met so many cool people, and so much support. This is the year for big growth 🎉❤
Jason, I've been at it for 18 grueling months, but I finally broke through the GRIND with success on my channel with Shorts and Long-form over the past 3 months, got monetized and the ad sense is pretty substantial especially once you figure out how to make a Short go viral over 1M views and of course long form as well. I hear you loud and clear on the other ways of making money and the passive income can be a real money maker! Great advice, BUT I STILL THINK PEOPLE UNDER ESTIMATE SHORTS!
How to make short go viral? Like 1 milion views you said in this comment
Any tips on shorts? Would love to know how to increase reach. Well done on your success!
@@tlsimpsonenterprises Thanks, I'll keep it simple, give the viewer a problem and a solution! It's that simple I promise. Play with the time I have success with 20 sec and 35-39 seconds. Give it a try! Once you give the viewer the pay off end the video immediately! Good luck!
I just watched a few of your shorts and you have a new subscriber. Thank you for your insight as well! Your knowledge is more valuable than you know.
Really glad that I found this video. I have been wanting to do talking head videos but I’m just too camera shy. But now, this video made me consider everything I have been doing so far and the changes that I need to make in order to grow as a creator.
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for your encouragement. I started uploading videos two months ago and today it reached 100 subscribers, mostly my family and friends but the number of views are not that great. Let's see how it goes!
small new channel here!! i realized i was spreading myself too thin and trying to do too much. i want to sing and be a fitness instructor, and make music with my friends. but i went to school for entrepreneurship and i believe i have a calling to teach other people how to start their own business, change your mindset to allow abundance, and scale it. this will be my new focus as I hone in on my niche so i can follow all my subsequent passions once i get to the freedom of not having to rely on a 9 to 5 to keep my lights on and groceries in my fridge. sending love to everyone on their journey
Just started 8 days ago! Excited! I pray we all succeed!
As a youtuber that tarted 1 month ago, i felt dicoraged but now i start to feel like ill make it!
Law of attraction..... the universe provides the how, you just focus on the feeling of the goal that you want to achieve. Speak it into existence. Because that creates the frequency shift that creates your reality.
you can do it! don’t give up! you never know when your channel will take off❤
Decided to really take TH-cam seriously and started fresh Nov 19th, I made a challenge to myself to post 1 video a day to train on my consistency with the goal of making each video better than my last (in the sense of entertainment & value). Let’s see how this plays out, we are 18 days in and I wish nothing but the best for all the small creators out here!
Did the same thing in may and results have been dramatic once u take it seriously keep it up TH-cam is a compound effect
@ Love to hear it! I hope for nothing but the best in your journey! Thank you 🙏🏼

I set up my TH-cam channel sooo long ago now & have been terrified to post my first video 🥴 2025 i’m going all in 🙌🏽 it’s time to post ya’ll! get that fear out & keep going!! 💪🏽
Great tips! Wishing all small channels becoming successful and monetized in 2024 and beyond ✨
i’m 3+ years on TH-cam and have not reached 4 k watch time, yet I’m still here. Keep going, guys, don’t give up! Best wishes to all the small channels out Let’s go!
Hey, you would get so many views and engagement if you start putting yourself front of the camera and talk.
The quality of the food and video are great. The whole time I was watching it I got bored in the middle of it bc no one is talking in the video
so many cooking channels dont speak or show themselves and they do well. alot of people actually prefer if the creator isnt speaking or in the camera & those channels have subs in the millions. so, even tho you prefer her to speak, its not necessary for growth. she should create whatever content she feels best making. @@MeersMedia
I've seen channels ignore the comments suggestions for years, because it's THEIR channel and they do things THEIR way (even when certain suggestions repeat). Then after years sometime, they finally try the suggestions and indeed gain subs exponentially. Rach.....take their advice. They TRULY wish you the best.
That watch time is killer I’m on the same boat
Nice video!! I joined TH-cam three years ago but had to take a break due to a medical emergency in the family. After a long hiatus, I started again just two months ago. Now, I’m back to sharing my love for food and the joy of cooking🍳
Same here, friend. I let go of it for a few years and videos like this are getting my attention. So glad I watched this earlier on.
Sounds like a great channel
Another small channel here - started mine a few months back and while its been a slow start, I constantly love to see how the quality of my videos have been progressed even when it can be about random camera topics - loving the journey!
Shout out to all the small channels & those starting off. Keep at it!
shout out to you also.
Subbed and waiting :) Good luck!!!
Shoutout to small channels
Shoutout to the small creators! I subbed to you guys!!
@ subbed you
Just discovered you. Love your style, straight to the point and informative. Im a small channel and ive seen it grow a lot in the last month
My man, you have no idea how much I was needing to hear this, I’m starting my photography journey and I’ve been petrified about the first video of me teaching or just showing my journey, you have given me not just the motivation but more importantly, the wake up call to start this and let the bs on a side and don’t let it stop me. Most probably I’ll be recording the video on this weekend. I’ll have my first video talking especially about how hard was it to create my first video. 🙏🏽🙏🏽.
lol that's the spirit!
Hey man Im excited to hear and see this first video! Im going to subscribe and blow me away with it @airtontj
Pretty cool advice!! Thank you! I just recently got serious with TH-cam and everything you are saying is true! I always try to make things look perfect which they don’t! 😅and then I don’t put the content out! I appreciate your encouragement ❤❤❤
I have a small 80s & 90s pop culture and nostalgia channel. That may be too narrow of a niche, but I’m having fun a little over 50 videos in. It’s introduced me to some really cool people already, and there’s great value in that alone! Keep it up everyone!
Narrow niche is good because you speak to a specific person
Started my channel - which has calming music to reduce tension, stress, anxiety keep you in a atate of calm. Will also be providing guided meditation and hypnosis to help tou achieve your goals. Wishing everyone success on their channel's.
Wishing you the best too. I have a channel with Relaxing Music and ASMR Sound for tinnitus Relief 🌸
@@relaxingmusic_sonocalmsounds amazing 🥰🌟
1:44 As a little guy myself, I say yup to this!
We just started your TH-cam journey! First vid got 1,6K views so guess it’s a decent start? Let’s see how it goes. Good luck for everyone else too! 🙏
I just passed 11,000 subscribers, mostly through shorts videos. But I’m still light years away from monetizing! I’ll just keep plugging away and learning until I finally reached that goal. Good luck to everyone.
Best of luck💕
@ thank you
Wait how your light years away from monetizing if you got 11k subs
@@lawrencemeh yes unfortunately. We may just be doing this wrong, but we are very far from qualifying for the partnership program. Most of our videos are shorts. To qualify to make money from ads on shorts, we would need 10 million views in 90 days. We’re slightly under 1 million, which puts us very far from monetizing.
That doesn’t seem right friend
Thank you for your advice ! Your advice made me feel I can crack on TH-cam too . Been on this journey past 3 years now . Still trying to figure out the shorts content !
Thank you again !
Oh the support is so good, I love seeing channels grow with their community and their TH-cam video styles!! You are soooo right about viewers and making more videos. My goal 2025 is to upload 2x videos per month! Let’s see how I go 🎉🎉🎉🎉.
Yeah good advice 🎉I also start my channel like one month ago and don't get views no much Subscriber and everyday thinking of give up but after listening you I feel some hope and I hope every small channel get success ❤Ameen 🤲
Good luck!❤
@LilyGazou thanks❤️
