    The fact that someone with a law degree says that TH-cam is the hardest thing they've ever done really puts things into perspective. It makes you wonder if the barrier to entry for becoming a successful creator is getting higher and higher, or if it's always been this difficult and we're just now realizing it.

      @@bearosophy I feel like the difference is more that, going into law school, you have specific and well-defined goals. Study this -> learn this -> do this -> success. Whereas on TH-cam, you can do all the things people suggest and still fail. You can emulate people and study how they succeeded, but it’s hard to translate their success into your niche and brand. Like I know that I like watching Ryan Higa and Safiya Nygaard, but I’m a kpop edit channel, so I can’t really apply what I see to what I do. Even if I made videos about my daily life or short comedy skits, I wouldn’t *want* to copy something that’s already been done. So it’s a little harder to figure things out 😭

    I have almost 4000 hours of watch time and almost 7K subscribers, what happens in my case is that I do very short videos so a one minute video average around 45 seconds of watch time. But with people that follow me like this because I can explain topics in very short time, give some examples and that's all, without talking too much :) and I personally feel more comfortable doing this because I don't expend too much time doing a video so I can make more videos in the future.

    If there's anything I can add onto this video, avoid a niche that may eventually die out.
    This is normal on video games, especially Roblox. You think that the niche will be successful forever, but then you eventually notice a downfall.
    I have some content ideas for when I am ready to come back, including lots of vlogs dating back to 2019 that have yet to be uploaded. I don't quite know what niche within vlogging you call that.
    Additionally, more car content like always, and maybe cooking as a possibility. I don't know.

    I've decided to start uploading content very similar to another quizkly growing creator. Nobody else is really covering this topic thoroughly (American Geography), so I have started uploading videos about similar topics to them and I have started growing quickly myself. Here's something for y'all to take out of this; find a niche with either a quickly growing creator or no established creator, and go in on it. Be different, but not too different. You want to find the sweet spot between too specific and too broad.

    One of your previous videos stated to define your business or something like that. Which to me is making lets plays for video games. Over time I have thought more about this and that doing Horror games would be more my niche. I know there is a lot of other competition in this area but then trying to define that niche again helps. I will ponder this more and see what I come up with. But hearing similar things in different wording does help so thank you for that.

    I quit youtube last year because of this struggle - "The algorithm ignores me" thing :-) It was like there is some secret I don't know and other successful youtubers know. But last month, I decided to come back, and I started creating passionate, creative, and meaningful videos - still the process is so slow (probably because I took 1 year break). BUT HERE IS MY HUGE MINDSET CHANGE: I am not thinking abouts numbers and statistics anymore because I TRULLY ENJOY WHAT AM I EXPLORING AND DOING ON MY YOUTUBR CHANNEL (you can see that in my lastest video. My point is that people always recognize that - and then channels grow because people are attracted when they see someone is passionate about something). 😊 Whatever happens, I know I am happy and fulfilled because I consider my channel as a place where I collect all my knowladge, insights and inspiration. I would say when we don't perceive youtube as a job ...it can become 😉

    Coming from someone who used to run various channels on and off for years before this current one, trying to get to monetization is one of the hardest things I've done on TH-cam. The influx in available music has made competition in the niche of music very high compared to five to ten years ago.
    I may start running ads again, cause running a few of those every so often helps with visibility and is far easier than the amount of work it takes to achieve those same results organically.

My frustration lies in the aspect of me actually taking time to make content. I use my green screen, I write scripts for videos and get very little success.
