Not Replying To YouTube Comments

[1toughsoul]

I've been wanting to ask this question for a while.
I see smaller channels that just don't seem to want to engage with their audience, or maybe they don't know how to engage so they don't.
This is for the small to medium channels. I understand huge channels not replying to every comment.

How do you feel about someone not replying to youtube comments on their video?

Are you offended?

Would it cause you to unsubscribe?

Do you even care?

It wouldn't offend me if a smaller channel didn't reply to my comment but if a small channel were to consistently reply to comments then I am probably more likely to want to come back and watch more videos. I try to reply to every comment I receive as I love interacting with my subscreebs. xD

I try to reply to everyone but sometimes it comes up as a 'linked comment' which I can't reply too. As for commenting, it doesn't bother me if smaller channels don't reply but if they do then I'm more inclined to come back!

Replying is my fav part, it takes out all the Fire from my body
If someone doesnt reply me, smoke comes out of my ears and i stop watching their content

I do my best to respond to every comment. Engaging your audience in the comments make them connect with you a little more on a personal level and that makes them wanna come back and keep watching your content

I also try to reply to all comments. Even If they're "only" something like "Cool video!", I try to start a conversation, if possible. It depends on your channel's content, I guess, but the exchange with viewers and other YouTubers is a big part of the whole fun for me.

I try to respond to all my comments. As for when I comment on someone else's videos, it's always good to at least get a thumbs up or +1 acknowledging they at least saw the comment

I understand that people have a life, and can't just go ahead and reply to every comment. Even at 1K subscribers I get overwhelmed at times. I can't fathom what it would be like at 10K or 100K subscribers.

But, for your own channel I think it is important to reply. Engagement is success. And for me I really enjoy the interaction with like minded individuals!

I try my best replying to all of my comments I receive because they made the effort to comment on your video why don't you make the effort as well by replying to them and i like doing this because i love interacting with my viewers, subscribers and it is one of the best things as a Youtuber.

If smaller channels don't reply but if they do even if it's just a thumbs up/+1 then I be more inclined to come back!
