    Hey Derral, this is exactly what I am doing right now. I’ve heard people say “stop wasting your time watching other TH-camrs and create more of your own” but I have realised that I can learn so much from watching the bigger channels :) Thanks for your advice Derral!

    • @Website-Developer
      @Website-Developer 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      How heavy is the download side on the back end? meaning is it heavy on the memory and CPU /Bandwidth etc. The reason I am asking is because of Live streaming and broadcasting. How hard is it on your resources Does it run continuously in the background

  • @DanVasc
    @DanVasc 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    So hyped for your next videos, Derral! Thanks for all the amazing value! I would also love a video going deeper on how to use Reddit to grow your YT channel.

  • @stunninglad1
    @stunninglad1 6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Wouldn't it be wonderful to do as well as Derral and the channel he highlighted. Clocking tens of thousands of subscribers monthly, as well as clinching millions of views on a video, is something we all aspire to. The bit about the tags is interesting also. The information has to state exactly what the video is all about. Great stuff!

  • @ladyb003

  • @drekberg
    @drekberg 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Yes - this is the stuff that makes Derral the professor of TH-cam. Getting my PhD in TH-cam. I love VidIQ and TubeBudd especially before making a video - researching a topic and optimizing tags, titles and descriptions. Love the nuggets you give in the videos too. Will be digging deeper into the browser SEO tools.
    I watch and study the channels in my niche and other niches because you can learn from all channel types. Sometimes watching the ones with 100K subs is better than the million subs Nimmin and McKinnon are perfect examples. Watch who is growing fast and learn from them, but put your own twist on it. A lot of channels that were made earlier (5+years ago) are coasting. Watch the people that grow fast and study what they do.

I felt like I was on my way to having a successful channel until I hit this “Plateau” that you speak about. I haven’t spent enough time as a viewer. It’s time that this TEACHER becomes the STUDENT! I’m buying into your methodologies and I want to thank you for giving me a boost to get going. Keep up the great work with your advice, instruction and TH-cam Jedi-like wisdom!

    You are a great TH-camr!!!
    Great video! I have been on TH-cam posting my orchestral concerts since 2009. Over all these years (up until now) I was not really trying to get a lot of subscribers, but to let the musicians in my orchestra see and hear the concerts they have played. While I was conducting it was very difficult just to find time to edit the 2-4 camera shoots at my concerts -- very time consuming. I am now going back to edit my concerts that have not been published due to lack of time. I am also adding video series like: Trombone Lessons: How to get back in shape after 30 years off, How to Conduct an Orchestra, and lots more. Your videos are helping me tremendously. They are the first choice for me.
    This February I was removed from the YPP because I only had 631 subscribers. I am now retired from conducting, so I have more time to spend on TH-cam. So, I am trying to get up to 1,000 subscribers to get back into the YPP. Thanks for your advice and I plan to follow it.

    I am so excited for this series (and definitely have the notification bell on!). It's encouraging to hear the advice to watch other creators. That's what I've been doing since starting off, making it a goal to watch at least ten other vlogs a day and figure out what I like, what works, and also watch channels like this one with advice for creators. Thanks again Derral for all that you do and all your videos.

      Thank you so much! For me so far (and I know I'm still super new and learning) for ideas on how to vlog, I think that watching tons of content and just soaking everything up was the biggest and most helpful thing that I'm still trying to find time to do with five kids (whenever they're sleeping, so usually at like 5 am, before they wake up) and then just going out and making videos.
      For growing, I think interactions have been so important, so I try to watch ten videos and then I try to leave at least ten comments that don't have to be super long (LOL, like this one) but that are longer than just basic "great post" type comments that are just a couple words, and I try to look around in the comments for other vlogs that look interesting and check out their content to see if it looks like something I'd like to follow.
      And lately I've just started to realize that it seems like commenting on live videos can definitely lead to new subscribers.

      Although I've totally been meaning to check out both Tube Buddy and vidIQ because I keep hearing about both on so many sites and this is a good reminder. I was actually listening to this while running around doing other things, so I want to come back and watch that part again and see the what both offer and if it would be worth it at this point to get either one yet.

    What I’m finding is that some of the bigger and even medium sized gaming content creators may have already covered a topic that I want to go over. Sometimes I have bits that I can add to the topic and other times it would just be retelling the same info but in my own way.
    Should I avoid overly saturated “how to” gaming videos and try to find the bits that are not talked about as much?

      You can cover the same topic and give it your flare

      Niche down as much as possible. Find something very specific that you needed to know about the game that no one else is covering and something that you know you can cover better.

      I did that once and nailed it so hard that other guys who did the same game spread the word on my behalf. A little bit at least

      Relyea! I'm having the exact same problem! Have you tried streaming live on Facebook and then moving your audience there to TH-cam? That's what I'm working on..

    Derral Eves, thank you so much for what you do! It's kinda crazy how little I know about all this stuff and your level of knowledge and tips to get started have such detail, thank you! It's also ironic that 'growing on youtube' is in heavy demand too hahaha

    I learned so much just from this video, and can't wait for the rest of the series! Just curious about your suggestions on picking 20 competitors to watch... I have a small channel around 100 subscribers...would you recommend picking comparably sized channels, or some of the bigger more established channels in the same niche, or maybe a combination of both??

    • @vidIQ

      It's best to have a mix. The big channels are the trend-setters while the smaller channels enjoying success are carving out their own niche and identify topics where the TH-cam audience is under served. As a smaller channel yourself that's exactly what you want to be doing.

    It was fun to see you highlight Zac in this video. I live across the street from his family and watched him grow up. He is an amazing guy! Still neighbors with his parents. Great family!!!
