If you don't mind my asking, what communities are you referring to? I'm making beauty vids. Is Yttalk one of them or are you referring to a more specific community within Yttalk?

I'm curious about this, too. How do you find the right communities to interact with? We do toy videos, and family fun day videos. I don't think too many kids really have forums that they're chatting on.

Well, I went on google & typed in beauty community & found value communities. Maybe you can type kids communities & it could be communities of parents with children that talk about kid related things.
 
Thank you for the tips, they are great! I also have been watching your videos, which are super useful. You mentioned that it is important to make a video that adds great content. But I feel like, especially in VLOGS or comedy sketches, there are soooo many out there, it feels like the market is overflowed. Would you have any idea on what to do? Should one go specific in the are or just continue it and being consistent? Thanks!
 
Wonderful tips everyone! I am still working on my branding and target audience because I do DIY and fashion videos and I am not certain if these two things cater to the same audience for not :/ I don't know what to do in order to become more cohesive, but I still enjoy doing both types of videos! Any thoughts?

When you start interacting with the community, though, then they care about your videos because they care about you a bit. They feel like there's a relationship that's worth investing into.

That'll get you started, but knowing why your videos matter and why they're valuable to someone is very important. Integrating that into your branding, videos, and channel strategy is what will get you past the 1,000 subscriber mark and beyond. Eventually there will only so much community participation you can do in one day, ya know?

When you say interact with the Community, in what sense do you mean? For example on Facebook, do you join groups with like interests? Is that the "community" you are referring to?

What is the best way to interact with the community on each platform? Is it through joining forums and groups? As you say, that can take up a lot of time in itself.

I came up in the late 90's and 2000's in the MP3 music scene and spent a boatload of time on forums to 'promote' my music. But I found this really, really time consuming and draining.

Going forward I want to be efficient with my time yet I understand interaction is important. I always respond to each comment I get on all social media platforms but I can only imagine as you get more of a base this would take up so much time.

Any insight is appreciated!
 
These are pretty good points. A lot of the time as well is people try to act like a different person than they usually are in their videos. This kind of conveys that you are more of an actor rather than a person on the internet that people can communicate with on a day-to-day basis.
 
Use lots of tags on 1 subject for example "how to get better at youtube" "how to make better youtube videos" "how to make your youtube channel grow" "how to get more youtube views" "how to get more youtube subscribers" that kind of thing and each video will get about 15-20% more views than without that therefor if the video is good people may subscribe
