As a small creator myself, it feels great seeing 1, a fellow small creator do well with a video, 2 reassure me that there are so many people going through similar things as my channel, and 3 make sure a well written and well edited video. Seriously had me intrigued and had my attention all the way till 12:30. Please do more like this.
As a small youtube creator myself, it's always fun seeing other small channels with great potential make great content. I know that they will grow big one day and I am there in their beginning TH-cam stages to support them. 😃
@xiexplicit Ohhh that VidIQ video! I remember that. Still surprises me that they even included me there haha. Anyway good to see a fellow VidIQ fan here 😀
@@DJPastaYaY yeah I agree was a nice surprise anyway I'm heading to bed now because it's 10 to 5 in the morning here in the UK but maybe I'll bump into you somewhere else another day haha Have a nice day/night
If only YT has reasonable algorithm like any other platform Other platform like Instagram are even constantly recommending any accounts with 0 posts and 0 followers in "suggested people" list
Other small creators are my biggest inspiration (especially those who are friends). It’s also really fun to grow together. Huge creators just feel so… “corporate”, “surgical” and unreachable (if that makes sense).
@@zumuvtuber other then “surgical” I know what you mean. They feel so much less like a nice person trying to do something fun, which I know that’s not the only reason for making content but that’s a big reason I make videos. Purely because I think it would be awesome to basically play games with friends and make other peoples day better for a living.
It's unfortunate how there are many TH-camrs who are either not grateful, or barely put any work in to their videos (like reaction channels) that get millions of views, while many really great channels are never found. Especially with animation channels. I've seen many really good animations that don't get enough attention because they're not feeding into the TH-cam algorithm. I used to have an old channel that I spent many years working hard to make stop motion animations, but it just wasn't worth the effort to spend a few months or a year on a single video. There needs to be more videos like this going over smaller channels. This could really help small creators get started.
I personally am a YT animator & have seen just how much TH-cam has basically fucked over animators over time. For one thing, changing a revenue requirement to watch hours over views sucks for us because most of our animations are seconds to a minute or 2 max because of the amount of effort it takes just to make even just a short animation. We spend hours creating our work, and unless some video randomly goes viral in the animation community, or you collab or get a shoutout, it's hard to get anywhere.
It's probably because of the time between upload's. TH-cam likes doing that to channels that don't upload on a daily basis, it's tragic. I imagine that animators that single handedly run a channel take weeks or months to make a single video.
@@apersimmon this here ^ YT also screwed us animators over when they changed ad revenue to being based off of duration instead of views- we can't pump out a whole ass 10 minute animation daily when it often takes a few days to finish a 5 second animation part for a MAProject
Allow me to introduce myself: I make better content than +80% of Minecraft TH-camrs and somehow I am still under 1k. Why is this? Simply put, TH-cam favors larger creators because they bring TH-cam more ad revenue. I wish we all could be noticed more, but corporate would poo themselves if we did.
as a small creator / musician, making it in youtube is a very tough thing to do, especially in the nerdcore realm off music. Seeing people like you gain traction like you is awesome to see, and I hope you go far with your channel!
I just got recommended your channel, and now I'm here for the long run. I can see so much great work coming from you and I hope to see more of that work in the future, keep up the good work my man.
As a small creator myself (as of writing this) it can be tough to find a way to break through and “make it” on TH-cam despite all the information out there. But it’s nice to have a loyal fan base and to have the outside help, like close friends and family. Because it does help to keep you motivated for having that one day when you make a video that will put you on the map of TH-cam! Oh and by the way I do like the editing of this video, it’s simple but effective of its own right! 👍
Its definitely hard as a small creator to stay motivated to actually put that time into making videos, especially when it seems like they just never hit the mark. I've had a few videos blow up pretty decently, but they aren't the kind of videos I want to make. I could totally dig into that niche and pump out content, but I know that I would be miserable doing it. A part of me questions why I continue to make videos to this day, but I know that ultimately my channel is simply my creative outlet, and I should be proud of it no matter what.
this is genuinely a nice video and although essay content isn't my thing i love the topic being shared in this video and it has inspired me to make a "spotlight" video on underrated creators i also like to watch. you are a brave one and a determined one and i hope you keep making content for the people who watch you (also yayyy you hit 1k that's a big milestone if you ask me)
Actually really bloody good video man. I think you hit something deeper about the state of small channels. To think of all the people that have legitimately good content and yet because they don't play the "Game" no one will see it. And yet, some people just love the craft. You my friend have both the love of the craft and know how to play the game. Christ even making a 10 minute video which visuals basically consist of stats and TH-cam thumbnails really interesting and engaging is really impressive. -T
TH-cam is a hard platform to grow up in, I made a thousand channels dedicated to gaming. And growing up as a commentator is hard AF in 2023. Especially with how many kids now take over TH-cam their attention span is abysmal, so it’s hard to keep going in the commentary side of TH-cam. But if you got the determination and you have actual “style” then you’ll do great. You just need to find a part of yourself that your comfortable sharing with so people can get used to your content. And most importantly YOU! Keep it up to all of you small creators!
this is genuinely one of the best videos i've seen on youtube in a while, the writing was great, the editing was downright surprisingly good, it kept my attention and made me interested, this channel's gonna blow up someday man, keep up the good work!!
As someone who's been making content for over 7 years, I can say that so much talent goes down the drain, as so many creators with heaps of potential leave the space and are forgotten. Having friends and even other creators to look upon for inspiration has kept me going for this long, and its amazing to see creators like yourself push out these insanely well edited videos. Keep up the good work my man, your doing us small creators proud! ;)
Great video man! You definitely deserve more subs for this quality of content! That being said, I weirdly found that the lowest effort videos that I made for my channel did the best. Any time I attempted to put any real effort into my videos they would almost always flop. Inserting the word "When" in the title also seemed to give my video a big boost in the algorithm.
This was VERY informative. As someone who is trying to get more views on my channel, this video I thought was cool! My immediate thought was “it’s almost like this video was reccomended and made just for me!”
I love this video man! As a person who started out a few months ago on yt, I find anything that can show me how to improve interest, including videos like these.
I've noticed recently that I get recommended a lot more smaller creators, even sometimes seeing videos in my recommended with less than a hundred views. I can confirm that most of them are just garbage. This is cool tho. I've considered in the past going into TH-cam properly and making full on devlog videos of my projects, but in the end there's no way I could be fucked to keep that up for any length of time (I also don't really have the voice for it tbh)
Actually really good video. Definitely made me take a look back at my old videos and realize it's all a learning process. No one's perfect, shish takes time. Been planning a redux of my channel for a little bit now and this video definitely motivated me to make that a full priority. Wishing you luck on whatever your future projects are, you got great potential!
Very cool video Ironically you talking about invisible creators, and you being one got you to my recommended page! Honestly the editing was quite nice and i like how you pointed out that some people just like make videos for fun, and not put giant amount of effort on a video Im one of the "doing stuff for fun" guys and that makes me happy. You have great potential my dude
Man, this video is a lot of motivation for my first channel, stupisaurus, (yes this was a plug) but I genuinely thank you for remotivating to make sure I dont go into the sloppy trash pile content that has no effort, new fav. TH-camr, thanks
I just keep going no matter what man, closing in on 1k, so I just have to keep going. 11:48 I've recently begun looking up videos in my niche (TF2) and sorting by upload date soley to leave comments on videos that don't have any comments at all. I know how much it means to me when I get a comment, so I like to pay it forward by taking time to seek out videos that don't see the light of day due to having low views
This video is honestly so inspiring to me. I’ve been wanting to make a channel since 2021 and yet have barely uploaded in the past year. This gives me the motivation to push on and make something special! Thank you.
Being a small creator is tough for sure. I can relate to putting in so much effort into a video that gets like 28 views, and then a video I just threw together randomly got picked up by the algorithm. It’s a long journey.
this is for you jaxx.. grow dont stop cause the only thing bringing you down is yourself. if you want to get somewhere in youtube just keep going and dont look behind focus and balieve have a nice day
Great video, as a small Minecraft creator on a different channel my biggest struggle when it comes to making good videos is having good retention, I generally struggle to get past 30-40% average retention rate although im still trying to possibly figure it out by trying different editing styles to see if one works.
I have 10 subs and no videos so idk about all this so ima give motivation. Nice editing you deserve more put more work in then uhh someone that starts with sss, no but you really deserve any growth you get I’ve been watching your subs go up and it’s amazing I hope you pursue content it is very enjoyable to watch you truly are one of those hidden gems of TH-cam sometimes you make mistakes but you turn them great I don’t know how you can make this good of editing in such short time with good speaking you aren’t shy or raspy you speak clear and I actually understand you witch makes it amazing when I first saw your channel I didn’t think much until I started watching your videos and now every time you uploaded it makes my day I normally don’t have time to watch now because of school but I try to get as much time as possible in home you keep making content.
This made me check. How is it I have 49 people subbed to me when I never have any videos in the first place. Never had any intention of being a content creator or anything like that and yet, 49 goobers subbed for no reason at all lol
This video was very eye-opening. I'm a small music artist/VR creator (2 channels) and I love making stuff, but it's demotivating when I post something I worked hard on, only for view counts to be really low. But I'm seeing now I just gotta keep going and not giving up. I really appreciated the video! 😊
This video is great, as someone starting out, I constantly find myself in analytic paralysis, but it's encouraging to see someone like you do so well. Keep up the good work, and best of luck to everyone grinding away, we keep making mistakes, but we learn from them and move forward!
Wow this was a great video! I almost didn't click on it but your thumbnail and title really got me thinking. As a small creator it's cool hear what you had to say about others and yourself.
I’m also a small youtuber, and I’m really glad you made this video talking about small youtubers. Seeing them grow and try to get through youtube is super cool, and, ngl, youtubes algorithm in my opinion, should change a little bit. But yeah, thats it.
Honesty this such an amazing video since not only that it talks about how mostly ppl struggle with this creating content now days but also lets improve upon ur slef and others , so they could still be able to create what ever they like and contunie to inspire others too. This is really helpful since as an artist myself who usually struggled with drawing and artblock, it really made me realize i could still improve on my art and more. Ur really deserve more dude!
Hey man, great video! I think the same thing often. Ive been watching youtube since the beginning and always wanted to have a small community of my own. Il be honest, I never tried it seriously but maybe someday I will. The standard for quality is so high now! Its daunting! I remember watching blurry cellphone videos back in the day and that was all the rage :P
Thanks strange anime man, this TH-cam video is my new Bible. I will come back to this video throughout my TH-cam career, and remind myself of the vast knowledge you graciously shared with all of us. Really thanks a lot 👍
Great video .Im a small creator and this video was very well edited and well written.If you keep going i know youll make it and me and every other small creator on youtube who puts effort in their videos
As someone who has tried for a while to become a content creator and failed in astronomical levels (and quit unindefenitively a month ago), this really hits me. My childhood dream has always been to become a content creator and rise people's spirits and entretain them, ever since I first saw TH-cam, but I never found the right way of doing so, and always thought it'd be easy and never really had the motivation to do so. Anyway, thank you for making a video that can reassure a lot of people in that they're doing the right thing, and they can improve, and that it's ok, since the system is not made to benefit anyone in specific. Great video, keep the good stuff up.
this is the first video of yours i’ve seen, and it’s really motivating. i got a random boost of subscribers a few months ago from uploading a pirated movie but barely anyone watches the actual content i make, so seeing you hop onto my recommended really helped me. great video dude!
I mean I have not yet watched any of your other videos but personally I thought this video was really well done! The concept of the video was great! It was really engaging and entertaining the entire time. Also the editing was really well done. Also if you find fulfillment and meaning in making videos and you enjoy making them then it is worth making them just for that, the views you get don't really matter
TH-cam algorithm recommended this to me twice and I haven't regretted clicking on it and I watched the whole video. good job keep making videos you earned a sub :)
Hi jaxx i am also a small creator and i had been thinking about giving up but this video definitely motivated me to keep going. Your videos have been great and i am glad your gameloft video has really been taking off (thats how i found you) Keep up the great work
this was a huge confidence boost lol. i wouldnt exactly consider myself a content creator nor did i exactly expect to become one. i mostly just uploaded my animations for fun expecting it to get 100-ish views, and hearing that the reason why they ended up doing so well was because people actually enjoyed it, was really encouraging. it made me want to actually pursue it as a possible job cuz i just assumed i got lucky with the algorithm or something lol. anyway this video was really well done! i wish you luck with your channel :)
I clicked on this video thinking it was just another big youtuber looking at the "hidden" side of youtube. The thumbnail and title are great, I loved the editing, much funny. keep up the good work!! 👀
I'd consider myself as a an invisible creator, i'm slowly getting more and more invested into it. This video was really interesting to watch! Thanks alot for this awesome video
I've just stumbled across this channel thanks to the Gameloft video and seeing him shoot up to 16.9k in just a month after this video was uploaded made me a bit teary-eyed for him even though I don't even know him - I literally haven't heard about this channel just 30 min ago, but I still feel proud of him and wish him all the best and that this channel grows even further.
Honestly, my stance is that to blow up, you have to be at the right place at the right time. However, you can increase that chance of that happening with more skill, and if you blow up you will most certainly need to put effort to keep that. (Really the only exception are shitposts, those just randomly blow up)
TH-cam is an uphill climb, but we all do it together. I could be sad about how I have 64 subs and not 1 million but I could also be grateful that in a few months of having a channel I've gotten as far as I have. W video.
This great video and as small creator myself know full well the time and effort that is put into this I believe you can succeed in your dream with time.
I really like the video. It's well edited and the pacing is great. I want to see ur progress. It's just sad that it is really hard to become a creator for a longer period of time cuz of lack of either exposure, luck or just plain motivation and also having a job is important.
The thing about the high effort videos getting no views is so true. I've spent upwards of 70 hours on a video just for it to get 200 views. And the video I spend like no time at all on gets almost a million views. What I've learned is that the thumbnail is more important than the video itself most of the time because that's what gets viewers to watch in the first place. Just opt for making okay content at first and then ramp up production as your fanbase gets larger.
i am a small creator mostly i do art but i upload other things. it’s good to see people talk about other small creators! i’ve had some random luck with my videos. just uploading clips from a stream got me over 200k views which i don’t know when i’ll ever get that type of views again. i’m trying to work on things for art right now and i have a huge project i’m hoping to finish before the year ends! maybe this will be my motivation :)
My main motivator by FAR for making more videos as a small creator is seeing the rare but incredibly generous feedback I get on some of my videos, heck I once had a guy reach out to me to tell me that my videos are awesome, me, a guy with currently 37 subs
your content is actually really really good, good voice and well spoken with great humor and comedy, honestly the only reason you are not getting thousands of views a video is the thumbnails and titles, wish i found your channel sooner, wouldve loved to include you in the video, good luck big man hope to see you succeed.
@@CMRAHEAD Im workin on that, I’ve been putting a lot more effort into my thumbnails and titles, been looking for inspiration, checking analytics and attempting to find more unique video ideas If the one person who watches my videos and has been wondering why my last video took so long is here, that is why.
Whenever I see a TH-cam channel with such amazing content, yet only have less than around 5-10k subscribers, more often than not, chances are that I end up subscribing to them because I love seeing them grow.
Amazing video was absoloutely hooked, although me and my ipad kid attention span got bored half way through and was gonna click off, but i wanted to hear what you had to say and im glad i did. really well edited definately go back and binge all your other videos, eight half eaten doritos out of 10 oompalompas.
SHOUTOUT TO NATEMG FOR BEING AN AMAZING CONTENT CREATOR. its insane how many youtubers put in so much work and get barely a thoulsand subs or maybe a bit more or less. when out there there are people putting in 0 effort with millions. i support you 100% and everyone who puts effort into thier vids. you deserved yourself a sub

Have a nice day/night
the amount of lost potential that comes from god tier small youtubers who gave up too early is depressing
right? like i found a channel a while back that had the editing quality and stuff of a 5M sub channel but they gave up and deleted their channel.
If only YT has reasonable algorithm like any other platform
Other platform like Instagram are even constantly recommending any accounts with 0 posts and 0 followers in "suggested people" list
Reminds me of charmx if everyone remember him, was a BIG reactor back then but now goes under a different name known as Fresh Cut Slim

I really enjoyed your video! It was very good! You definitely should be more popular.
I have 10 subs and no videos so idk about all this so ima give motivation. Nice editing you deserve more put more work in then uhh someone that starts with sss, no but you really deserve any growth you get I’ve been watching your subs go up and it’s amazing I hope you pursue content it is very enjoyable to watch you truly are one of those hidden gems of TH-cam sometimes you make mistakes but you turn them great I don’t know how you can make this good of editing in such short time with good speaking you aren’t shy or raspy you speak clear and I actually understand you witch makes it amazing when I first saw your channel I didn’t think much until I started watching your videos and now every time you uploaded it makes my day I normally don’t have time to watch now because of school but I try to get as much time as possible in home you keep making content.
Thank you brody :D I'm glad you like the videos, I hope I don't disappoint in the future.
this really made my day.
Any time and I think you won’t disappoint
This made me check. How is it I have 49 people subbed to me when I never have any videos in the first place. Never had any intention of being a content creator or anything like that and yet, 49 goobers subbed for no reason at all lol
This video was very eye-opening. I'm a small music artist/VR creator (2 channels) and I love making stuff, but it's demotivating when I post something I worked hard on, only for view counts to be really low. But I'm seeing now I just gotta keep going and not giving up. I really appreciated the video! 😊
This is true. Putting effort into productions, creative works, and more that get overlooked. Thanks for bringing attention to us 🙏🏻❤️
This video is great, as someone starting out, I constantly find myself in analytic paralysis, but it's encouraging to see someone like you do so well. Keep up the good work, and best of luck to everyone grinding away, we keep making mistakes, but we learn from them and move forward!
Wow this was a great video! I almost didn't click on it but your thumbnail and title really got me thinking. As a small creator it's cool hear what you had to say about others and yourself.
I’m also a small youtuber, and I’m really glad you made this video talking about small youtubers. Seeing them grow and try to get through youtube is super cool, and, ngl, youtubes algorithm in my opinion, should change a little bit. But yeah, thats it.
This is such an amazing video, I'm not one to usually leave comments but what you said at then end is so true
Honesty this such an amazing video since not only that it talks about how mostly ppl struggle with this creating content now days but also lets improve upon ur slef and others , so they could still be able to create what ever they like and contunie to inspire others too. This is really helpful since as an artist myself who usually struggled with drawing and artblock, it really made me realize i could still improve on my art and more. Ur really deserve more dude!
You just inspired me and probably many others. This video is well done. sub
Hey man, great video! I think the same thing often. Ive been watching youtube since the beginning and always wanted to have a small community of my own. Il be honest, I never tried it seriously but maybe someday I will. The standard for quality is so high now! Its daunting! I remember watching blurry cellphone videos back in the day and that was all the rage :P
Very good video, glad to see your blowing up now! Alot of your points really resonated with me and alot of the other small tubers in the comments 😅
Thanks strange anime man, this TH-cam video is my new Bible. I will come back to this video throughout my TH-cam career, and remind myself of the vast knowledge you graciously shared with all of us. Really thanks a lot 👍
It's nice to see a documentary on small creators
i think the argorithm is taking notes man! keep up the good work
This video is a great representation of small creators
Great video .Im a small creator and this video was very well edited and well written.If you keep going i know youll make it and me and every other small creator on youtube who puts effort in their videos
This is a great video wish you the best of luck, and aso here before you get really famous :)
As someone who has tried for a while to become a content creator and failed in astronomical levels (and quit unindefenitively a month ago), this really hits me. My childhood dream has always been to become a content creator and rise people's spirits and entretain them, ever since I first saw TH-cam, but I never found the right way of doing so, and always thought it'd be easy and never really had the motivation to do so.
Anyway, thank you for making a video that can reassure a lot of people in that they're doing the right thing, and they can improve, and that it's ok, since the system is not made to benefit anyone in specific.
Great video, keep the good stuff up.
This was an absolutely fantastic video, subscribed!
Crazy comparing the ending of this video about you believing in yourself to make it work to seeing you find success now man ❤
Im really impressed by the editing! Really good for a small channel :)
Been scrolling for a while and found this vid, I was pleasantly surprised! Keep working brodie
ayo this channel got some serious potential 10/run3 would watch again
this is the first video of yours i’ve seen, and it’s really motivating. i got a random boost of subscribers a few months ago from uploading a pirated movie but barely anyone watches the actual content i make, so seeing you hop onto my recommended really helped me. great video dude!
I mean I have not yet watched any of your other videos but personally I thought this video was really well done! The concept of the video was great! It was really engaging and entertaining the entire time. Also the editing was really well done.
Also if you find fulfillment and meaning in making videos and you enjoy making them then it is worth making them just for that, the views you get don't really matter
This is the video I’ve been waiting for someone to make hope to see you at the top brother
TH-cam algorithm recommended this to me twice and I haven't regretted clicking on it and I watched the whole video. good job keep making videos you earned a sub :)
Nice video! I, along with seemingly lots of others, did not realize how similar the motivations and demotivations of small creators are.
Hi jaxx i am also a small creator and i had been thinking about giving up but this video definitely motivated me to keep going. Your videos have been great and i am glad your gameloft video has really been taking off (thats how i found you)
Keep up the great work
KEEP GOING BROTHA YOU'VE INSPIRED ME TO CONTINUE AS WELL
This was a really motivating video. Thank you.
this was a huge confidence boost lol. i wouldnt exactly consider myself a content creator nor did i exactly expect to become one. i mostly just uploaded my animations for fun expecting it to get 100-ish views, and hearing that the reason why they ended up doing so well was because people actually enjoyed it, was really encouraging. it made me want to actually pursue it as a possible job cuz i just assumed i got lucky with the algorithm or something lol. anyway this video was really well done! i wish you luck with your channel :)
I clicked on this video thinking it was just another big youtuber looking at the "hidden" side of youtube. The thumbnail and title are great, I loved the editing, much funny. keep up the good work!! 👀
As a small channel who makes random stuff thanks for making this video, I hope those who deserve it get it.
I'd consider myself as a an invisible creator, i'm slowly getting more and more invested into it. This video was really interesting to watch! Thanks alot for this awesome video
i agree. i run a john cena fan channel, but no one seems to see it. :(
@@manboy4720because you can’t really see him. Consider choosing a different celebrity.
I've just stumbled across this channel thanks to the Gameloft video and seeing him shoot up to 16.9k in just a month after this video was uploaded made me a bit teary-eyed for him even though I don't even know him - I literally haven't heard about this channel just 30 min ago, but I still feel proud of him and wish him all the best and that this channel grows even further.
Honestly, my stance is that to blow up, you have to be at the right place at the right time.
However, you can increase that chance of that happening with more skill, and if you blow up you will most certainly need to put effort to keep that. (Really the only exception are shitposts, those just randomly blow up)
This was a really well put together video. I hope you keep up with uploads like this. Good work
I'm so glad you made it with the gameloft video
hey, thanks for makeing this video, it gave me a lot of good advice for my animations! thank you!
elite editing for a small creator, continue like that, one day you will become one of the big youtubers
TH-cam is an uphill climb, but we all do it together. I could be sad about how I have 64 subs and not 1 million but I could also be grateful that in a few months of having a channel I've gotten as far as I have. W video.
This great video and as small creator myself know full well the time and effort that is put into this I believe you can succeed in your dream with time.
I really like the video. It's well edited and the pacing is great. I want to see ur progress. It's just sad that it is really hard to become a creator for a longer period of time cuz of lack of either exposure, luck or just plain motivation and also having a job is important.
Nice vid, appreciate the way you're motivating small creators to not give up! Earned a sub, hope it helps with the algorithm.
The thing about the high effort videos getting no views is so true. I've spent upwards of 70 hours on a video just for it to get 200 views. And the video I spend like no time at all on gets almost a million views. What I've learned is that the thumbnail is more important than the video itself most of the time because that's what gets viewers to watch in the first place. Just opt for making okay content at first and then ramp up production as your fanbase gets larger.
i am a small creator mostly i do art but i upload other things. it’s good to see people talk about other small creators!
i’ve had some random luck with my videos. just uploading clips from a stream got me over 200k views which i don’t know when i’ll ever get that type of views again.
i’m trying to work on things for art right now and i have a huge project i’m hoping to finish before the year ends!
maybe this will be my motivation :)
Wow, very good job on this. I like the editing style, keep it up and have a good day.
Just gotta say, you've got good taste in music. Appreciate the silent hill music
My main motivator by FAR for making more videos as a small creator is seeing the rare but incredibly generous feedback I get on some of my videos, heck I once had a guy reach out to me to tell me that my videos are awesome, me, a guy with currently 37 subs
your content is actually really really good, good voice and well spoken with great humor and comedy, honestly the only reason you are not getting thousands of views a video is the thumbnails and titles, wish i found your channel sooner, wouldve loved to include you in the video, good luck big man hope to see you succeed.
@@CMRAHEAD Im workin on that, I’ve been putting a lot more effort into my thumbnails and titles, been looking for inspiration, checking analytics and attempting to find more unique video ideas
If the one person who watches my videos and has been wondering why my last video took so long is here, that is why.
I love these kind of videos and your voice is cool. Your voice kept me engaged for the entire video.
Whenever I see a TH-cam channel with such amazing content, yet only have less than around 5-10k subscribers, more often than not, chances are that I end up subscribing to them because I love seeing them grow.
Amazing video was absoloutely hooked, although me and my ipad kid attention span got bored half way through and was gonna click off, but i wanted to hear what you had to say and im glad i did. really well edited definately go back and binge all your other videos, eight half eaten doritos out of 10 oompalompas.
Ive been doing yt for 3 years now, my channel is really small it feels good to hear motivation from someone else
Gives me hope to continue making content
But do please make more vids, I love these
SHOUTOUT TO NATEMG FOR BEING AN AMAZING CONTENT CREATOR.
its insane how many youtubers put in so much work and get barely a thoulsand subs or maybe a bit more or less. when out there there are people putting in 0 effort with millions. i support you 100% and everyone who puts effort into thier vids. you deserved yourself a sub
after doing youtube for 3 years I've slowly been losing steam, but i'm determined enough to never give up 😞👍
i'm pretty glad i scrolled a bit down, just found some actual good videos to watch
You're doing a great job for now. Here a random comment from retired TH-camr who also has checkmark
Lovely video, commenting for engagement ❤
this is actually insane. the entire video is a masterpiece. you literally need a mill subs
Loved this bro:) I know you’ll make it
