A Confession

Yeah I don't even have a thousand, but my three top videos are near 200 (one over) and they were all because I paid someone to promote my videos. I don't think I did anything WRON but it wasn't right either :(

I know from experience that paying someone to promote your videos really isn't worth it at all. Many of the YouTube Fiverr gigs are bot based. Do you have any good trusted friends with active Facebook commentors who would be willing to post your videos on their news feeds?

Another option I'd recommend is broadcasting on YouNow after linking your channel to an account you set up there. It's kind of like UStream. If you're a comedian, just tell people jokes while they chat with you live and if they think you're funny, they may eventually subscribe, watch, and comment. Just make sure you have thick skin, and don't let trolls get to you.

See let me just clear up what I do, I don't promote his videos for views they are just after affect of the process, I am part of another community that is build upon sharing videos and liking them if they are even somewhat good, so what this means is that there are about 120 people part of it and when I post a video usually about 25 out of those 120 watch and like the video, I then go and like some of their posts if I think they are good and that's how it works, I don't use any bots and what I do will not get subscribers unless your videos are really good and those people like them enough to subscribe

I've been meaning to make this thread for a while. The truth about my subs and views. No they're not botted.
I used subxcess a month ago and now I have ~15 dead subs. It was the worst thing I ever did for my youtube channel and I really wish I could undo that.
Now my views are a bit weird. I've been paying Ukraine Arsenal and he promotes my video God know where and I got most of my views on my 3 biggest videos.

I've been trying now to stop using him, because I want the views to be my own, but my view count has dropped harshly. I'm hoping I could achieve naturally what I could b4 with 50 YTTcash. I just wanted to let it out there because I can't take it. I feel so fake now...

THATS how you got me views. I'm not upset about this, they landed me a couple comments and subs, I knew if you said you weren't botting me you weren't so I knew I could trust you. But I mean... there's nothing wrong with paying him to promote you if he'll TELL you how he promoted you... if he won't tell you? Don't trust it. There was a guy who told me he'd put me in his "promotion ring" that had "30 people all sharing his videos for him" In reality, he just botted me. I didn't pay him though, still not sure what his motivation was, but you guys KNOW what my videos are like. 3000 views, no comments good or bad? I don't think so. Most people have SOMETHING to say either about how I'm the most hilarious weirdest guy on earth or I am on drugs and need help but my videos don't, NOT make an impact LOL

So anyway, be sure you're getting the full story, and know what's really going on.[DOUBLEPOST=1371330782,1371330737][/DOUBLEPOST]

All I can say is: do what you like if you feel it helps. However, if you're going to PAY actual money you should expect thousands of views. I can only hope you didn't pay much...
