Record Games you like playingnice post. do you recommend doing channels on 1 specific game or just make another channel for the other one and link it to your main channel?
Its Okay ManGreat tips, thanks!
Haha niceDefintely make a video about this.
Hey guys i have done a lot of research and these are what i think helps to get a good gaming channel. i have been using most these tricks i can and i have received 495 Subscribers in just over 2 months http://www.youtube.com/user/mahanoprogramming
1) Commentate Over most videos - Most videos are boring without commentary, talk over your videos even if it is not live commentary.
2) Record High Quality - No one wants to watch videos where you cant see the persons sword. Use software like paid Bandicam Or Fraps Even if u have to get it cracked (not recommended)
3) Upload Frequently - People wouldn't want to subscribe to you if you never upload. Try Uploading Once a day or if you cant at least upload Once a week.
4) Know what your going to say - Don't just not talk half way through a video, no what your talking about, try making it interesting.
5) Be yourself - Don't try being someone your not people will want to subscribe to you for who you are not who you are trying to be.
6) Take your time to upload - Don't rush to upload videos make sure there are not too much mistakes.
7) Have a nice clear microphone - No one wants to hear "static noise" or that annoying constant buzzing sound. I Recommend the Blue Snowball it costs around £60 but is worth it.
8) Play multiple games - For a wider community play multiple amounts of games because not everyone likes your typical minecraft lets plays.
9) Dont do it for the money - Do it because you find it fun and enjoy it.
10) Get good editing software - Edit with a good editing software. I recommend Sony Vegas Pro or Adobe After Effects.
11) Get new games as soon as possible - Upload videos of games when they first come out, there wont be much videos of that game.
12) Play games you like - People can tell in your videos that you don't like the game you are playing
13) Try not to stutter - Try not to keep stuttering it is annoying .
14) Dont swear too much - Not everyone likes swearing and some viewers might be very young.
15) Try getting community involved e.g competitions, face offs ect - People like being able to join in with there subscriptions.
16) Have correct tags, title , and description - If you have incorrect tags youtube will not register them properly.
17) Use cool interesting Backgrounds and Logo's - Backgrounds and Logo's can draw in subscriber's and views just for looking good.
18) Collaborate - join with other channels, do shout out videos, do videos together - If you collaborate channels you could have some of there subscribers and views if there subs like your content.
19) Make first 30 seconds interesting - The first 30 seconds are what most people will watch make them draw the viewer in.
20) Don't quit - Not everyone gets famous straight away, keep trying and uploading video's.
21) Advertise - Advertise anywhere you can but not too much.
22) Use Caps In Description - If you use capital letters in descriptions, it would look more professional.
23) Choose a catchy username - Use a name people will remember that isn't to long and is catchy
24) Get new games out first - If a new game comes out, get your video posted first before everyone else does.
any questions ? What do you guys think of these?
Should I Make A YouTube Video About This ?
Thank youThose are really good tips for gaming channels, especially purchasing new games when they come out; people love watching videos about games that just came out. You should definitely make a video about this so that more people can learn something useful!
