YouTube success! What does that look like to you? Is it fame, money, or you looking to make an impact on the world with your ideas and perspective?
Whatever YouTube success is to you, here's the reality, it ain't easy!
You created 30 videos and got 0 subscribers and 5 minutes of watch time. Fuck! Hours of work for this!
Then the weak part of your mind kicks in and says to you, just quit this ain't worth it! It's to hard!
My advice when this voice speaks, go back to why did you start this shit in the first place?
What was the reason? What dream are you looking to achieve?
The Critical Eye
Outside of dealing with the bitch voice inside your head and getting your emotions in check. Let's look at your YouTube channel from a logical perspective.
1. The thumb nail isn't drawing attention
2. The title doesn't inspire curiosity
3. Your keyword targeting is not aligned with YouTube and Googles Algorithm
4. Outside of depending on Algorithm's what kind of promotions are you doing with your videos?
5. Do you spend half of the video talking about yourself and not getting to information that the title says the video is about
6. Is there even an interest in what your video content is about?
7. After going through and researching and testing everything above, maybe it is time for you to bite the bullet and admit that your video's are just out right boring.
Full disclosure, I am not a successful YouTuber! Yes I have a YouTube channel with about 9 videos and maybe 5 minutes of watch time and no subscribers.
This is criticisms of my own video content. The ones I know apply to me are 1,2,3, and 7.
Marketing Game Plan
What are your videos about? Is there interest in this subject? Google trends will help you find out. If there is interested in your content.
Depending on YouTube and Google Algorithms, would be like depending on me to achieve your dreams for you. I would if I could. But that ain't going to happen.
It's time to take your destiny into your own hands.
