yeah but i hope you will take response on every point of my anwser ^^(1-10)sorry if i don't reply on this forum... i just forget to log in... xD so much work, and thanks for all the positive feedback
and @shonin i replied to your question through youtube
Ahhh here we are, one of the hardest things to do, and point where we don't even know how to begin about doing this.
so let me break it down, growing a successful channel isn't really a big thing, it all depends on how you view success, what do you aspire in your youtube career? is it 1000 subs? 1,000,000 million subs? or do you just want to get some views.
Sure people will tell you that there is no way in hell you can get there, but on the contrary i think its quite easy.
yes I do throw the word "easy" around lightly, Being a gaming commentator myself, we all know about the tireless hours and sleepless nights that we have put up bring the channels to where we have and yet we are not satisfied, we are never satisfied. its just human nature. or maybe we have uplaoded 1000's of videos, only to find out we have a few subscribers which include your parents and relatives.
That means you're doing something wrong, so lets get started on helping you grow your channel
*These are a bunch of things that can possibly help you grow, i have compiled this list myself, and this is only my opinion, but i have gotten from 100 views a month to, nearly 3000 views a day! since my channels beginning in September 2012*
1) WHAT WILL YOUR CONTENT BE?
Will be making videos around a specific audience?
it may be videos that gives help to people, but the downside is that the viewers will be high for specific videos you won't get many recurring viewers
Remember if you're a gamer you need to commentate. Pulling out a notepad and typing something in the middle won't help you!
2) BRAND YOURSELF, TRUST ME YOU NEED IT!
If you haven't got yourself a name, might as well quit and start now, let me give you an example.
My Youtube Channel - youtube/bhanoob
My Facebook Page - facebook/bhanoob
My Twitter page - twitter/bhanoob
3) MUSIC FOR YOUR VIDEOS
Make sure you don't just put random songs you like; it'll make sure you'll never be a partner as well as screw your YouTube channel in the long run
Don't Trust random sites which claim that they have copyright free material and random youtube channels which say so, here are a few of my personal Recommendations, do your research if you're not sure about any of these
i) DJ Pygme He makes his own songs and i've been using them for a long time
ii) FloidBeats Makes his own songs
Track Name : Don't Cry
iii) Machinimasound.com is a very famous renowned group of musicians who make royalty free soundtracks
iv) Approaching Nirvana
Remember to give credit to all the musicians, they deserve it, and also give them a thumbs up and subscribe I mean you really lose nothing and they help out a lot, otherwise there would literally be no songs for us to use, so we should really be grateful
4) POSTING YOUR VIDEOS
The best thing to do is find your own groups(facebook)
, or make them if you can, Most of the communities I built were focused around sharing videos here are some of them
also a group for youtubers out there that can join in to help each other by sharing videos and finding new friends to do collaborations with
facebook/groups/noobupmovement
5) SETUP
Recording games :
Camtasia Studio 8 (Very easy to change resolutions and record browser games)
Fraps (Very good but you need a beastly PC)
Dxtory
Xsplit
Editing Videos :
Camtasia
Sony Vegas Pro
Microphones:
( You won't need better microphones than these honestly, even if you have a cheap logitech mic for like 2$ you might be able to get away with it, if you spend extra time editing the audio with free software like Audacity )
Blue Yeti
Blue Snowball
6) COLLABORATIONS
Don't Spam people asking for collaborations, be nice, don't be a d**k find people, be witty... make them your friends then you go in for the kill, make the other guy trust you, make it seem as if he knows you for some reason, make yourself a familiar face in his channel
It's not easy, actually it takes months, but it's better for 1 to work than failing 100,000s of times
Message them on facebook or twitter, they read it more than youtube messages
I read the messages, but that's because I'm weird and i don't really get a lot of messages... comparatively of course.
So you should choose your battles, don't try to get Pewdiepie to a collab with you, if you can do that CONGRATS!, and in fact let me know how you did it, because you are my master!
7) SCHEDULE YOUR VIDEOS
I'm not going to preach about this because i've never done this so how can i even pretend to tell you guys to do this and that, but people have said that its better and it works, so why not give it a shot?
8) TAGGING, THIS s**t IS REALLY IMPORTANT
Tag the hell out of everything, use this keyword tool, to search which tag you want to know, can't stress this enough
Use the "Youtube Keywords Tool" ( Links aren't allowed, but just google it you'll find it)
It shows how many people search specific keywords, so you know what to tag
9) WRITE A PROPER DESCRIPTION
No matter how many times we tell people, they don't listen, you can't have a half a**'d description, it has to be long, boring and effective yotube allows 4000 characters so use it!
10) CREATORS PLAY BOOK
seriously why don't people read this, this is youtube's guide to success on youtube, its worth spending an hour reading
11) MY SPECIAL ADVICE -
Comment on every video you have ever seen, just do it, comment like its the day you die, have conversations with other people in the comment section, do it here, do it now, watch and see if i'm not lying, this helped me, and I know it'll help you
Hope you enjoyed,
and now my fingers hurt :'(
Also I started a series called "How To Youtube" where I answer any question you may have regarding youtube, and also where I feature 3 peoples channels so they can get more exposure if they are new to youtube or need a little bit of help
This is a pretty awesome guide *downloads to memory banks*Ahhh here we are, one of the hardest things to do, and point where we don't even know how to begin about doing this.
