Quality over quantity

Take your time with the editing, actually care about your audio and do a little mixing

Try to find new games and shyt that you're into that people would like

What are you going to bring to the table that's different than other youtubers? What kind of vibe do you want the channel/stream to have?

There's so many people doing this now that if you aren't unique, it's really going to be rough getting any kind of following. I'd try getting a stream following on twitch before I would on Youtube tho...

What's the highest viewer count you've seen on a Youtube Stream?

I've seen people gain big followings on twitch using the PS4 broadcast option, it's all in how good you are and how you interact with your viewers. Also, it seems like a co-sign/cross promo helps a lot on there too.

I got a YouTube channel myself you can pm me if you want. But you should get a good mic and an elgato and be semi good at photoshop or Vegas or just any program. And just be entertaining when you do your videos don't sound bored play games you're good at it too lol

Oh but you still trying to make money right?
if I can, that would be nice but it is what it is. :yeshrug: plus there are other channels that do good without editing or with minimal editing.

It's massively over saturated, don't expect to be hitting 100 subscribers anytime soon, treat it as a passion project or you might get your feelings hurt




If you must tho, this is good advice, listen to this guy
personally, I got 200 on my main channel... cant even get past 1 on my new channel :mjcry:
