apparently you want a thousand
subscribers after all it's the first
step to getting monetized plus it's a
big achievement less than 10 percent of
creators ever reach this Milestone well
at least according to this study
regardless it's no joke and this video
will help you get there faster without
even making a new video I want you to
share how many subscribers you have
right now in a few months I will go
through those comments to see how much
you have grown after this video and I
want some of you to be in a future video
of ours most creators assume that their
subscribers come from people who click
this subscribe button while watching one
of their videos those creators would be
wrong there's another source that's
likely responsible for the majority or a
massive amount of the subscribers that
you have and you shouldn't ignore it
when you go into YouTube Studio
analytics advanced mode then you click
subscription Source you will see a full
breakdown of where your subscribers
really come from I'm gonna share this
subscription source that has gotten us
over 200 000 subscribers and then I'm
going to share analytics from three
other YouTube creators who sent me their
data so you can get an idea of how this
might look on your channel the number
one subscription source for us for the
lifetime of this channel is titled your
YouTube channel this is different from
your YouTube channel watch page where
people actually watch your videos this
traffic Source refers to this page the
home page to all of your YouTube channel
content not a specific video this was
also true for Creator Stanley Orchard
who gained over half of his subscribers
from this one page but these other two
channels reveal something completely
different
and no I have no idea what this angle is
I you know just trying to be a little
creative today okay Jenny Hoyles who's
been blowing up on shorts has gained
over a million subscribers from the
short speed while only gaining about 19
000 from her Channel page and Cole has
gotten most of his subscribers from his
watch page and only about 50 000 from
this page regardless nineteen thousand
and fifty thousand subscribers is still
massive so if you're still trying to get
your first 100 1000 even 1 million
subscribers on YouTube setting this page
up properly so that it will be a click
magnet will do incredible things for
your channel growth and takes a lot less
effort than actually making a new video
there are three key elements that will
make this a page that will bring you a
ton of subscribers the first is the
banner this sets the tone of what your
channel is about since your channel name
is already here I wouldn't recommend
repeating it in the banner use this
space to share some of the topics you
cover or what your subscribers can
expect it could also include a reminder
to subscribe a high quality Banner sets
the tone that you are a high quality
Channel please don't throw up any
garbage here if your artistic skills are
anything like mine just use canva it has
plenty of free professional templates
that you can customize next is the
featured video now I'm not crazy about
using this section as a channel trailer
it feels a little bit outdated plus your
channel trailer is probably an old video
you made before you had any skills it's
probably not your best piece of work
instead choose one of your most
impressive videos to feature here this
will give viewers an immediate
impression of the kind of quality and
content they can expect from your
channel it could be a top viewed video
or a video that's been getting you a ton
of subscribers think about it like this
if your crush asks you to share a video
from your channel what would you share
that should be it the goal here is to
choose a video that will make somebody
absolutely fall in love with you third
is this small description it's in the
center of the page it's the preview of
the first one to two lines of your
Channel's about section you have about
70 characters to explain what your
channel is about before it gets cut off
so make those characters count here are
some examples you can follow all of
these channels do a great job of stating
their Channel's mission statement so
viewers can immediately understand if
the channel is for them and hopefully
they'll become subscribers a high
quality Channel page can be the
difference between 3 out of 10 viewers
hitting the Subscribe button and 8 out
of 10 viewers hitting it over the next
week months years this will make a
massive difference here's what I want
you to do leave a comment and I will
happily review some of your channels and
give you feedback on the changes that
you made to your channel page I'm sure
some of the other commenters will
happily join in also because your
YouTube channel page can be the reason
why you convert more viewers into
subscribers or the thing that holds your
channel back please do not underestimate
this traffic source for getting more
subscribers and please don't
underestimate this video for helping you
get more views
you probably can still see me this is
this is not smooth but I love you all
see you next time and keep creating
