TommyInnit is just a minecraft kid from the UK, but he's exploding in growth. How much does he make? And how is he taking over? Is it all down to Dream and the Dream SPM? Or perhaps he's beating the youtube algorithm

Video Notes
TommyInnit alongside Dream and the Dream SMP is speedrunning TH-cam. he truly is a youtuber mastermind. But how is he beating the algorithm? How did he gain 7 million subscribers in 1 year?
So a lot of you may be wondering... how did Tommy get the opportunity to collaborate with Dream in the first place? Dream is a nice guy…but he doesn’t just make videos with anyone. He only had 200k subscribers. Tommy has mastered TH-cam Storytelling.
However...while tommy’s editing and storytelling mean he’s getting great retention….this doesn’t explain how his videos are getting picked up in the first place……...which takes us on to factor number 2 - Tommy is hacking you tube’s recommended system
But there’s still a piece missing. Something that the only the very top youtubers understand….and that is factor number 3, tommyinnit is a branding genius….If you look at TommyInnit 's channel page, the first thing you’ll probably notice is all the thumbnails look exactly the same
My name is Paddy Galloway and I hope you enjoyed this video

@@misscornicat in a jail cell....
I was watching that part and then this happend ur comment appeard in time
I feel like Tommy's videos are also really available to people who can't hear very well. The bad auto subtitles on TH-cam are very hard to follow. And even when there created and done by hand there still boring. So the way Tommy does it with the bouncy transitions and colour to match a person it not only makes easier to follow but also funnier.
Yea the bouncy and different color effects make it more appealing. Even though I don't need subtitles I still end up reading every word hahaha
@@Aryeed you took the words out of my mind lmao
@@Aryeed that subtitle-ing can also be seen on some asian shows. It's very fun xD
Yes 👍
which is literally all done by a feature in adobe premiere at the click of 1 button
Tommy is the entire internet's child. Like honestly, we adore this little man and his success makes a lot of folks who couldn't achieve that very happy. Not to mention he's genuinely an incredibly smart kid.
Tommy's branding is actually so strong, though. If you tune in to one of his streams, it'll start with the same song, he'll be wearing the same shirt (you know the one), he'll normally open a can of coke, and he'll say "welcome back, everyone, to the stream" on the beat drop. I get that a lot of that is more routine than branding, but its definitely dome of both. He creates a very familiar environment both on YT and on Twitch, and it gets people yo want to come back.
Not to mention his chaotic personality-the fact that you never know whats coming next just hooks you
It's important to look at how he usually streams for an hour per live stream. This because he puts so much energy and effort, so he would be exhausted after a couple hours. Therefore, whenever he wants to stream for longer, he usually has more "chill live-streams" or goes live on his alt account.
Yeah but he took it even further one he was at about 1 million subs and started repeating the same jokes and acting the same way constantly to the point where it felt fake and repetitive
hes done such an incredible job with it really
M
When he goes on podcasts, he talks completely different than anything you see on screen. He is actually really smart and it’s no wonder he’s made it this far.
Tommy is smart as SHIT
@@lukum_ yh, but like dream did teach him a lot of stuff
@@twilightxd1554 fair enough, but he already had a vital skill. His storytelling ability. Dream took notice because of two things a. he's funny, b. Dream saw Tommy's potential as a content creator. I think that Dream recognized that Tommy was going to blow up. When he joined the Dream Smp, he had just hit 200k, and was growing fast. I think those that are closest to Dream usually have help from him in understanding and making good videos. I think regardless if he joined the Dream Smp, he would've blown up. But yeh, ur probably right because Dream probably did teach him some of the more complicated strats.
@@twilightxd1554 So did Wilbur. You gotta give credit to Tommy though, man knows how to twist the algorithm really well
to think that the random dude that ordered a hit on philza kickstarted tommy's entire career
I remember watching Tommy when he had less than 30k, and your points about constant movement, good story telling and text on screen, where all on there.
I have to congratulate him he deserves it
As of 14 July 2021, Tommy has reached 10m subs. So yea, the whole 20m subs prediction seems highly likely by 2022.
We're almost at 2022 and he isn't even close to 20M
@@itschrisboi6539 we are absolutely no where near 2022 and Tommy has green 3 mil in about 3 months so yes I think he will have 20M by 2022 or even more maybe, I mean look at Dream's growth, with that, anything's possible
@@itschrisboi6539 ok nvm we r only 4 months away
@@theresawilliams2045 yeah, exactly 😅😂
We have 9m more I think there is only a possibility for 15m
Man, I was there back when tommy had 2k subs. I knew for sure he would blow up, that was just over a year ago. Holy moly
Yeah man I was there when he was doing hypixel skyblock trying to get YT rank. Shits crazy
Same I was around at 200k
BRO I REMEMBER YOU FROM THE COMMENT SECTION OF TOMMY'S IN LIKE 2019
How u know ?
@@gamesbond0074 because he made good content
Story Telling is key!
Story telling
=
Pog
Yeah.
Hi!
indeed, the art of storytelling
L
I've always thought about the fact that he uses colour coded subtitles as really neat. Typically for Minecraft videos no one's there to write captions for the videos and the auto generated ones are really just terrible. And when you're someone like me who cannot for the life of them hear words properly Tommy's subtitles are a godsend. The fact that he colour codes them is amazing too, cause I suck at recognising voices and the colours help me know who's talking. I just think that it's really neat that one of the many changes Minecraft videos got since back in the og times were the inclusion of subtitles that really made the whole experience so much better
Tommy also uses picture of him laughing in thumbnails because most of his fans find his laugh they’re favourite thing about him, or/and he is known for his laugh
MrBeast uses a similar style by putting his face into every video (except he’s not known to laugh unexpectedly tho)
@@ThatPurpleWurmple Yep
I suddenly realised that TH-cam growth is not about conscious things like telling your viewers to subscribe and like, it's actually about the content and how you make it interesting.
Sounds about right ✅
What about Jake Paul, Jay station, Keeemstar? They have millions of subs but make god awful content.
@@gnewhall4116 they get the lucky strikes that people stick around for but fill the rest with bs
@@gnewhall4116 it’s just your opinion really
@@gnewhall4116 jake paul got subs after Vine. Keemstar has subs because fights and drama always sells and the other one I don’t jnow who they are.

Tommy's amazing. He managed to become this successful in such a short period of time. Unfortunately, it did cost the social security and the personal aspects of his life in such a short time, as well. However, this young man is strong enough and has the best people around him to overcome that.

Fascinating insights!! Thanks Paddy!
Ok I knew Tommy was really smart but I didn’t know he was this smart like holy crap all of this makes so much sense he’s a freaking genius! And he’s nine days younger than me! And I couldn’t even think to do all of this in my videos!
I mean people have youtube channels dedicated to teaching all of these things, so I wouldn’t say he’s a genius.
From an algorithm analysis this is spot on when discussing Tommy's later on exponential success, but even in his early days was he a networking genius! He started out on a Minecraft server known as Hypixel initially doing party streams to then doing the very trendy and hyped Skyblock game where he grew to a few dozen thousand subs. Within the span of a few short months, he joined the Earth SMP where he did something similar to what Paddy says where he mentioned very popular youtubers like Technoblade and CaptainSparklez in his titles. The coolest part however is that he has been very persevering in how he got into these events. Honestly although Tommyinnit gets a mixed reputation he is very much a youtube genius. Great video!
indeed

Excellent video and I can't wait to incorporate these tips in my videos.
TH-camrs like Tommy with a extremely loud tone in content isn’t really my thing, but I’m glad his content is making others happy and I do understand how some people like very loud creators.
i used to not like him then i suddenly became his fan lol
yeah same, I really don't like Tommy Innit but at least he's making people happy. however, I despise his stans.
@@gooseymoosey1630 stans are the worst to be honest they are crazy
@@gooseymoosey1630 everyone hates stans. mcyt fans and stans are totally different.
At first you find him annoying but than you learn to enjoy him a lot /lh /j
Logistically, Tommy probably started learning about TH-cam analytics from the very start of his teenage years (13-14), which was really smart to do. A quick word of advice to any kid/teen who wants to be a TH-camr in the future, give it your best shot when your still at home with family because it would be a real struggle when your older and have to pay rent, taxes and daily costs. I’d say that from 12-15 research TH-cam Analytics and from 16-24 give it a go. It may seem like a long wait to try but in the long run the knowledge will help you.
Very insightful video! I'm always learning more about TH-cam and the way content creators have found a way to make the platform work for them. Thank you for this!
great video ..
happy new year 2022 from singapore 😀
Hey Paddy - Would be really interested in seeing a video on how someone very successful in the education space on TH-cam has found their success. I think what drives success (and even clicks), in that genre is very different that what makes a great vlog or gaming channel. Love to see if something like this is in the cards! Keep up the great work!

Hello smart man!
sadly that genre u mentioned doesnt have BIG VIRAL TH-camRS unlike these other niches
Yep
Tommy just has amazing chemistry with literally everyone...like most people will be slightly shy and it gets awkwardly quiet at times, but Tommy will just keep it rolling and literally scream laugh at the smallest moments. Love him
I remember when he had 5k subs and honestly, i'm proud of him. I have stopped watching him because of his audience and the stans
He doesnt really have a bad fanbase compared to others tbh. You can enjoy his videos still

Extremely thankful that I found your video. I always wondered how he does it!!!
Tommy actually invited himself in the Dream SMP but he wasn't accepted at first
I find it interesting that he plays this character that is supposedly on the less bright side, but in reality he is quite smart
Yeah I mean just from watching his videos you'd think he's just another dumb teenager and that's part of that relatability. He might be smart, but he puts on that persona so people will like him more. It's actually really smart
well said
And theres a reason, nobody likes a smart show off, yet they want a brilliant you-tuber, this is what Tommy is doing, mad respect. He’s being relatable to impress his audience while using his brain
I just subbed, you seem like a nice lad! Keep up the good work. You deserve all the support you get!
Awesome video. I like Tommy’s motivation and attitude.
this kid is well and truly speedrunning youtube
Dream had made Tommy success, but so does Tommy make Dream SMP successful.
yeah the dream smp would not be where it is today without tommy and wilbur
Teamwork is the best dream work 😁❤
@@maryrosegonzales132 hell yeah! :]
I dont really think it was Dream, but Tommy's humour and the way he stood out to everyone on the SMP since the beginning, definately gave him a boost.
@@riotix1196 i think it is, cuz he does same thing on SMP earth being annoying but it didnt go very well. While in Dsmp, Dream on that time is sooo famous and creating boost for tommy, and then tommy made an interesting storyline with wilbur + with help of dream being famous make him gaining so much clout. This is my opinion
Tommy is not just a kid who swears and laughts all the time...he is a genius and good at advices 😳😳😳
That's awesome to see people expand and grow. Just waiting for my time when I upload a video and be recognized for it, been about 2 years from when I started but just gotta keep grinding

Awesome video! As someone who’s been watching Tommy grow for over a year now, another one of the things that has helped him is that he knows how to play to his strengths. This kid is a fantastic networker and uses that to get more exposure and do collabs that many other creators can’t. He also is very consistent with uploads. Most creators when they reach the level he has slow down a bit because they feel like they’ve “made it” but Tommy has never stopped the grind and continues to revolutionize his niche. I definitely have a lot of respect for what he has done!
His video descriptions are hilarious! That's a smart way to include the high search keywords. I will try that too!
i would do that but idm about views. it’s cool and all when i get high views but it’s not something i’ll just try to get. i just do what i want to do, i’m doing youtube to have fun and share my work

Appreciate ur efforts
I predict that when dream smp falls, the sleepy Bois Inc and the long standing youtubers like quackity or the ones whose success doesn't rely from dsmp will continue on to grow on YT while on Twitch, I predict that Tubbo will reign supreme AND have the respect of the lsf/wider twitch community due to him streaming variety and varying contacts Mizzy Wizzy and for pushing BTTV which the Minecrafters don't usually get now for obvious reasons.
Yeah Tubbo is definitely gonna grow the biggest on Twitch, partly because of his connections and BTTV but also because of his consistency. The youtubers like Tommy and quackity have made it clear they are mostly youtubers and not streamers, and have made their presence on the site scarce on purpose so people go flocking to them whenever they do stream. It’s actually pretty fuckin genius. People like Wilbur and techno operate similarly because they know damn well their scarcity is gonna cause people to come in DROVES when they finally post or stream
and then there's Ranboo
You have to be popular in the first place for it to work, but if you aren’t planning on uploading weekly rewatchability is key. Can’t count the times I’ve rewatched Technoblade’s potato war series and the numbers show it. This also applies outside of Minecraft, Safiya Nygaard uploads rarely but her videos are incredibly rewatchable. Or Emirichu’s childhood crushes series
I wonder how randboo will do
