[Question] How to deal with channel competition?

[Fox Beat]

Hey there, my channel contains a royalty free music videos, and as we all know that this niche is over-populated, the competition is highly strict, but i have no choice.

My question is "How to deal with it (this competition which is very-very strict)?"
I've been optimized my SEO, thumbnail and title.
Is there any other advice / trick to survive on this competition?

Please leave your comment below.

I've moved this to the strategy forum. ^_^

YouTube is a video sharing website, so I'd suggest occasionally creating a videos that fit with your music. So...creepy dark music could have a foggy creepy tunnel with occasional ghosty things appearing (just using a faded multiply effect lol). Or happy spring music could have flowers blooming. It could be something simple like a time lapse, to something crazy and complicated like what DevinSuperTramp does. It's a lot of work to create a video that goes with your royalty free music, but it would set you apart from a lot of your competitor.

The other thing is that it takes time. Without an immediate viral video, it takes at least a month of posting quality stuff before your statistics start to feel like they are creeping upwards. For me, it took a year before things started moving, but I'm probably doing it wrong lol....

I don't know how I'd do it if I was making the same content as my competitors. The way I compete and beat my competition is to use better quality sources, produce higher quality HD videos, use more effective and cleaner effects, and upload at a consistent rate. My niche is a pretty small and obscure one, but I dare say I'm leading it and I'm the newcomer.
