Number 9. This is short and sweet, but it's it's true ok keep your video titles on the shorter side
It's pretty important and although
There is a cap on how long your video titles can be you should probably keep things even shorter than that
analysis has shown that videos with titles longer than 50 characters actually have a decreased chance of
appearing in the search because keywords and phrases past the 50 character mark
Tend to get cut off you want to keep your titles tight into the point very very just
Streamlined in 50 characters is more than enough in most cases
To do so so don't try and spam a bunch of catchy buzz words in the title of your video on YouTube
that's what the tags are for and this is a
Common common mistake that a lot of people make they think the more keywords they put in there and they have a hundred and twenty
Character title it's going to help them. It's actually going to hinder them
Now this was a bigger deal back in the day
But I'm still going to mention it okay finding community channels community
channels are
Unfortunately falling out of style and I get that but you can still find them out there if you're willing to do a little bit
Of digging community channels have given so much exposure to countless youtubers and even helped launch them into full-time careers you should always
be submitting your videos to community channels even if the community channel is a smaller one because
Even if the channel has a small following it is still being followed by a group of people
Who aren't aware of you and your content?
And there is always the chance that their video takes off and sends a little bit of extra attention
Over to you you want to maximize the amount of opportunities
There are for people to discover you and community channels are a good way of doing that even if it's on a smaller scale
Anybody that doesn't have eyes on your content that ends up watching it. That's a good thing
Number seven do not spam your channel. This is a mistake
I see a lot of people making on YouTube and Twitter, and I'm not gonna lie to you guys
I did this back in the day on Twitter myself when you go into the comments or on another
youtubers video or in someone's Twitter mentions
And you just spam your links to your videos you're gonna get nowhere very very fast in fact
You're probably just going to end up going in the opposite direction because no one likes someone
Who does this you'll probably end up blocked it's going to hurt you more than it helps you if you continuously post links to your
Channel in the comments or mentions of other youtubers
you're just going to end up getting yourself banned from their channel blocked from their Twitter and
Sometimes even get your account deleted for spam plus if you're trying to get on the good side of another youtuber
spamming links to them is
Absolutely not the way to do it
No one wants to work with someone like that trust me. I did it back in the day, too
It does not help you this goes without saying
But we're gonna say it anyway at number six make
Quality polished videos back in the early days of YouTube you could get pretty popular without having super polished videos
I mean I could probably call out a whole laundry list of people who started their YouTube career
Just making live comms gameplay with a $5 microphone, but those days are gone
Unfortunately well for some because of how much the platform has grown and how commonplace good editing software is nowadays the standards for YouTube have
increased dramatically
And if you don't keep up with that you're not going to grow
Make sure your videos are well edited look as polished and clean as possible edit out mistakes get a good mic and upload in 1080p
This will help people take you more seriously and will make them much much more likely to subscribe and come back for more
at number five and I should have put this at number one because this to me is the most important thing and
I have went by this rule since the very beginning
I don't think I've missed a day uploading on my channel in probably five or six years upload
Consistently it is so important with the YouTube algorithm
Especially right now if you're not uploading consistently you're not gonna make it if you do not have time to make videos consistently
You're probably not going to make it as a full-time gig here if your videos are inconsistent and quality you're probably not gonna make it
Now I may be sounding negative here, but I'm being real with you guys
are you starting to get the point at what I'm making here in order to grow on YouTube and
Establish yourself as a serious content creator your videos have to be coming out
Consistently both in the schedule and the quality of the content itself if you are posting daily
But only a couple videos a week are really really good. That's not going to help you very much
If your videos are really good, but they're only coming out once a week. That's probably not gonna help you either
You need to find that balance on consistency both in quality and uploads and the timing of uploads
Themselves back in the day you could upload two videos a week and have a huge channel now
Yeah
YouTube has an algorithm that really wants to see
Consistent content at number four this is super important and not everybody likes to hear this
But it's the truth upload what's popular but not too popular, okay?
This is a very common mistake that people make when they try to grow on YouTube especially now with the popularity of games like fortnight
Obviously if you want to grow on YouTube you need to be uploading content that people are one
They're wanting to watch things that are trending
But you also need to work your way into that audience without stepping into territory that has already been done to death here's an example
For tonight is an excellent way for a gaming channel to grow right now because of the sheer
popularity of the game and the insane number of people looking for creators for it however if you were to make a fortnight stream highlight
Channel today it probably wouldn't grow very much because of how
Oversaturated that specific market is so there are many many stream highlight
Channels already doing that
Adding another one to the pile will do nothing for what you need
To find that balance between a popular subject in a popular content style make videos about things that people are
Interested in but do it in a way
That people haven't already seen a million times before every idea has been done for the most part
But you can always put your own spin on an existing idea at number three stand out from the competition
And I know this is easier said than done
This is kind of a piggyback off the last entry but it's worth expanding upon if you're gonna grow on YouTube or twitch for that
Matter you need to bring something original to the table or nobody is going to care if any given John Durr of content on YouTube
there are tons of
Popular creators who have covered just about every aspect of that content style so if you're not bringing
Something original at least coming from yourself to the table with your own content. It's probably it's not gonna work
It's what what are you gonna do to keep your potential viewers from leaving and just going back to the people they already know will
Entertain them look at every youtuber has blown up in recent months they all have something unique to offer even the vloggers like Paul Brothers
And Casey nice that have very unique editing styles that keep you coming to them as opposed to any of the other vloggers on YouTube
find that unique part of your content and latch on to it establish yourself as
Original and not just another follower of the trance if you can find that magic sauce right there
You've got a shot at number two find a YouTube duo, or group when you are smaller
It's it's hard to grow and I know and you're looking to grow and it's always a good idea to try and find other small
Youtubers so you can constantly collaborate and promote each other in order to grow even more if you're going to lone-wolf it on YouTube
You're seriously missing out on the potential for collabs in which you can latch on to an audience of another youtubers and they can latch
Yours vice versa it allows for twice the growth and more opportunities for your names to get out there plus if you are constantly
Collabing with another small youtuber if one of your channels takes off the other one will also take off due to the association
Getting a duo or group of small youtubers together is never a bad thing and it's something
Everybody should do if they're serious about growing on the platform
And finally in number one keep your channel focused on one or one of a very few
topics or genres
It's a pretty common mistake that I see in newer
youtubers when you're just trying to get your name out there it can be pretty easy to let the hype get ahead of you and
You'll just end up spamming the website with things that are popular but in order for you to be taken seriously by potential subscribers
You have to keep your channel focused on one thing or one topic on ninja's channel. You'll find fortnight videos on dramaalert
You'll find drama news on my channel. You'll find fortnight in top 10s
You have to keep the content consistent, so people will start to associate you with a certain genre
And you'll become their go-to place for that genre. I even have it my Twitter bio
I'm that top-10 guy and everybody knows it they know they're gonna get a lot of top tens
When they come to my channel if you're jumping all over the place with your content you become unreliable and it makes your channel harder
For viewers to attach to because they don't know what you're really all about keep your channel consistent
And I know I've been using that word a lot recently
But it's a good word and when it comes to starting YouTube you need it. It is all about
consistency
And there you have it my friends. Those are 10 tips to help you get that first 100 subs on YouTube
I know it's not easy. I know it's a grind, but it still is possible
It's just not as easy as it used to be I hope you guys found this informative
