Great advice! honestly, Youtube can be painful sometimes. I've been through three channels, two of which I consider actual channels, the other one was just for jokes
any ways, over the course of 1 1/2 years, I've been going hard on youtube. My first serious channel had no effort put into it and it ultimately collapsed. But what makes me love what I'm doing now on my new channel though, is that after I finish editing my video and after I hit that render button, It makes you feel like you've accomplished something rather then just posted for the hell of it. So to everyone trying to take a shot at youtube...make sure your gun is fully loaded cause you won't be successful if you produce halfass content (sorry for cursing).
