How to get my first 100 subscribers?

So I started a youtube channel a little over a month ago and currently have 14 subscribers. My goal is to have 100 subscribers by the end of the year. I'm completely new to this and need some advice and help on how to accomplish this. Here's some general information about my channel ::
- I upload gaming videos of any kind of game. (Horror, adventure, funny, sandbox)
So I'm hoping that whoever reads this has a lot more expertise on youtube than I do. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. :)
 
Seek out people who would have interest in what you provide. That's basically it, a crap ton of throwing your content at people -- not aggressively to the point they all hate you for it though. But through legitimate ways of advertising on places like this, or sneaky advertisement by having a scenario where your videos become relevant enough that you can bring it up, without it seeming desperate or forced.
As well as video quality and video tags.

Make friends on Youtube. You're still relatively unknown, you need to get yourself out there.

:pompus: I took a sneak peak of one of your videos, your commentary not that bad.
But for just a month and you're getting 14 subscribers is not that bad. :wink2:
Here are what I gather from other more experience you tuber tips I would like to share. :spin:

Dos :angel:
1. You can do collab with other youtubers so their viewers will get to know you as well.
2. Promote your channel on social media like, twitter, tumblr, google+, Facebook groups. (Post Maybe once a day)
3. Use related hashtags when you're posting your videos on social media (Don't spam hashtags)
4. Be Consistent with your video uploads, if you upload on Wednesday at pm, then be consistent and upload on the same time same day Every week.


Don'ts :banghead:
1. Never Ever ask for sub4sub, this will harm your channel in future. (non legit subscribers will not view your channel but only give you a dead sub)
2. Never Spam your channel, people will think you're annoying and will avoid going to your channel.


Thats all I have now, hope this helps :bounce:

Okay thanks a lot. So your saying maybe leave comments on other gaming videos to get your channel out there?

Leave comments - but don't shamelessly advertise, YT filters those posts, but more often - people will hate you for advertising your channel, because you're wasting the space that could be used for discussion.
I tried that a few times - either no results, sudden downvotes but sometimes a sub or two.

Ok thanks for clearing that up for me. I was never really sure if that was a good idea or not.
 
Be consistent with your uploads, armor up yourself with patience (best armor you can possible get). If you can't bare your path to glory/recognition on youtube and do not enjoy yourself just being out there and doing what you like - then it's time for a break.
 
There are a ton of awesome articles on this site that can help you with growth. They were what helped me when I was first starting out, and now I'm at almost 900 subscribers in less than a year.
