Struggling to get views

The GMan

The GMan

Loving YTtalk
I currently create playthoughs with commentary for youtube but I'm starting to think I'm wasting my time due to low views and subs. For some reason I'm loosing subs as well and when you don't have many that hurts. I just feel like I'm putting time and effort into recording and editing for nothing.

There maybe something I'm doing wrong that I can't pinpoint. I'm going to carry on for a bit longer and finish some of the stuff I've started but if things stay the way they are then unfortunately I'm going to have to stop recording which is a real shame because I enjoy doing it.
 
Keep at it man, don't give up if you enjoy it. Its always a struggle to get views and subs to start with as theirs a million other videos competing with yours. The big channels all had to start from somewhere :)

You can always share your videos with friends, facebook, twitter, related forums, network with other YouTubers and that can create collabs and therefore more viewers etc.

I can't watch the videos atm as I can't play the audio, however I'll make sure to check them out when I get home and reply back here with some feedback :D

Keep at it man, It'll improve over time! You'r content is great!
 
I think you dont need to struggle though. You should just relax, enjoy what you are doing, no stress, and have fun. Like obscurimity said, if you are not enjoying or having fun making videos thats definitely wrong. Just dont give up and have fun. All the best to you my friend :)

That's not the reason why I'm making videos. I like creating the content and enjoy playing the games and learning to use the editing software as well. It's more just the lack of of subs and views that I find disheartening.

Thanks for your support guys. I know you guys can get me through this slump I'm going through.

im sorry but your perspective in making videos is kind of wrong, a building cannot be made in a day. nor a hero. everything is made by learning and patience. even the youtube stars today struggled before. just have fun and dont think about views and subs :)
