Feedback on my channel?

I just started making videos a few weeks ago and am just starting to develop my style, so any feedback I could get on my videos would be greatly appreciated. Whether they be suggestions, constructive criticism, or just words of encouragement, they would help me. Thank you so much and I hope you have a great day![DOUBLEPOST=1466174052,1466129239][/DOUBLEPOST]I also forgot to mention that in my videos I say I am doing daily Vlogs, but I have just came to the conclusion that I may start doing sporatic, more interesting vlogs or maybe even weekly.
 
I like the style you've got for your videos. The opening with the environment shot and date is very serene and nice. I'm going to try to give feedback, but these are more suggestions.

Things to improve: Your image quality is very nice, what falters is the audio. Every now and then the audio may get loud or quiet depending on the shot. Try to keep it balanced.
You've got a sort of voyeurism thing going on with your videos, which matched with the audio and sleek videos captures an audience. What would help you would definitely be learning camera angles and framing.

Just google Camera Angles/movements and you'll get a heavy list of techniques. I don't know if you've studied this before or if you're even interested, but understanding what camera angles, framing, and movements do psychologically to a viewer can easily help you guide a video whereever you want it to go. If you already know this stuff then I say dive in. Go crazy and find cool shots. Maybe invest in a small, but good camera that youre not attacted to and just treat it like a tool. ie, put it "dangerous locations or scenarios" like the railing of a bridge over water, or strap it to the side of a bike.

Suggestions: Don't gotta follow them but they could be interesting to develop
1. I'm not particularly into Vlogs, but of the ones I like watching they tend to start the video with a goal. Even if its simple. It helps keep interest throughout the video. Even if you fail, iots still interesting.
2. Another idea is record short tidbits each day and assemble a weeks worth of footage and summarize. You can set longer goals and it can somewhat pull the strain off your shoulders.
3. Go tranquil, just completely set your style and try to show pretty shots with light commentary.

You're doing good, so keep killing it till you make it.

Thank you so much for the suggestions and kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to write this out and check out my channel. One of the ideas that I am struggling with deciding is whether I should upload daily, weekly, or sporadically. If I upload daily then it will get stale, but then if I upload weekly I might miss an event, such as a concert which it would be beneficial for me to post it the day after. Also, I am having trouble finding active subscribers who are not only in it for my support on their channels. So, let me ask these 2 questions. Should I upload daily, weekly, or sporadically? Also, what can I do to make you and others active subscribers to my channel?
 
Well that's truly up to you. Personally I'd do weekly with sporadic videos happening occasionally, but its base off what you can do to optimize.

If your subscribers aren't active then you may not be actually marketing to your target audience. Your content is somewhat a slow growth channel. It's base off people relating or liking what they see. The only real way you can help(beyond what I mentioned in the previous post) is being on top of that social media and let people come to you.
