How replying to comments = SUCCESS

This is so true! I find this to be true on my videos as well. When people know that you're engaging and that they can connect with you, they trust you more and they come back for more. Thanks for the tips!
 
The YouTube Comments Section should be seen as less of a "boring extra" to YouTube, and more of a way to engage fans. Big YouTubers hardly ever respond to comments - you should learn from their mistakes, and instead of, as they often do, upload a video and respond to the comments that flood in moments later, stage it out. Perhaps even make a schedule? On a Saturday, you could film a video, Sunday you could edit and then Monday from 4-5pm you could aim to respond to comments from your fans :)
 
We put hours into managing and responding to comments daily. It can get overwhelming if we get behind. I can see where the biggest YouTubers might get to the point where they have to decide whether to keep up with comments or just make videos. But I can't see us ever quitting responding entirely.

GREAT suggestion!
