I agree with others with being yourself. I have my own awesome personality that nobody else could possibly have because its too awesome for its own awesomeness.
So I ask: what will you do to be different?

With under 1000 subscribers, I'm still learning on Youtube, but I've been performing magic and comedy around the country for years, so I've got some entertainment experience to draw from. I want to pose this question and offer a bit of advice. How are you being different? I've noticed a lot of people are asking questions about how to grow their channels, or they want to know why they aren't getting views, subscribers or comments. In some cases, the answer may be just to think more outside the box. Youtube is oversaturated with channels of every sort; gamers, makeup gurus, vloggers, even comedians like me. In the entertainment world, people will generally take notice and want to see more of you if you're doing something different. That doesn't mean if you want to have a gaming/vlog/comedy/etc channel, you can't have one. I would challenge everyone who reads this to think about how you can make your channel and your videos different from what is already out there.
Youtube doesn't need another RWJ or Tosh. They don't need another (insert most popular gaming channels). What they do need are your fresh, original and different ideas. I believe that if you truly strive to make your videos different in a way that they stand out from things that have been done before, you will gain more views and have a more successful channel.
So I ask: what will you do to be different?
Thanks for your feedback! A different personality is a great start, but I firmly believe that new, different and interesting content is also important in attracting viewers and subscribers to your channel. The goal of this thread was to get people thinking and make them want to challenge themselves. Hopefully I've accomplished this with at least a few hereExcellent thread, you've made excellent points and I ask myself the same question every single day.
I find it doesn't hurt to check out the competition regularally, if you can mingle with them and bounce new ideas off them you're golden.
Thanks for sharing Rob!
