What I Learned While Gaining My First 1,000 Subs

This advice really helps. Thanks for taking the time to put it all together.

I'm going to take them as notes to grow with my own channel.

7. Don't Give Up
I can't believe the number of threads I've seen of people complaining that they aren't gaining subs. Then I go to look at their channel, and they've only been around for a month. Unless you have a video go viral, it is going to take longer then a month to get a decent amount of subscribers. I've noticed a pattern of about 2 years before people have a high following so don't get discouraged. The more subs you gain, the easier it will be to get more. When I first started it would take 2 months to get up to 100 new subs, then it would take 1 month, then less then 1 month, and so on. Keep doing YouTube if you ENJOY IT. Don't start a channel for the "fame" or "money" because the likelihood that it will actually happen is VERY slim. When it stops being fun to make videos...then stop your channel for a while. If it's still fun, then keep going. You will get to a decent subscriber count eventually if you have good content & people like you.

thanks, it is extremely useful to note, too often wonder if it's worth working on, but then suddenly the reimbursement, and you will see that it is worth working, and keep going.
 
Thanks! A lot of these apply to some of the choices we are making. As far as video length goes, should we just start making shorter videos or can we make short videos with longer ones to compliment them? It seems weird to commit to a pattern and then abandon it but at the same time I totally see your point with people not wanting to watch longer videos.
 
wow, great advice and it amazing to see that someone that you guide helped you a ton it says 1k subscriber and you have 250k subscribers which is crazy. Keep up all the good work!
