I recently made a video about why elon supports trump. The video is good and engaging the AVD is 51% with no dips.

But I got more dislikes on it than likes.

Im thinking that means since quite a few people on YouTube hate elon's antics and his guts.

Maybe they disliked his agenda and not the video?

My question is, will this affect the reach of my video?

Hey everyone,

I’ve recently started streaming and noticed that when I record or edit my videos using OBS, I seem to get fewer impressions and views compared to when I used to record directly with Nvidia. The Nvidia recordings had a larger file size, so I’m wondering if that played a role in video quality or visibility.

I’d really appreciate any advice on the best OBS settings for recording and streaming to ensure optimal quality and visibility. Also, if anyone has tips for improving microphone settings or recommendations for good mic setups, I’m all ears!

Thanks in advance!

Hey All,

ATM i am using the 3 key light setup for my videos, the OLD ones with the multiple changeable light bulbs in each not LED type,

And it was really beginner setup!

After reading about the new Ones i really got puzzled!

SOLO vs Bi- Color Key light, CRI, Lumens, Watts and all that gibberish words for me :D

I'm recording indoor for talking head setup.

So, Any Advice!

Where should i start or Which to upgrade !

Not trying to sound stupid here. I just want to know the whole process of how working with one works before I try looking for one.

I've clipped multiple clips based on the durations using ffmpeg & now I want to merge all those videos into a single one. I am wondering if that's possible with any tools. (Open source only). And how do I do it. I've downloaded shotcut, kdenlive but can't figure out how to do this as the gui is overly complicated.

Just want to start by acknowledging that there will be paid services and professionals who would be able to assist here, not my intention to cheapskate anything.

Creating and presenting art is my gift and curse and I’m looking at creative ways to present these on various platforms.

The goal is to continually create and keep the ideas and content fluid and progressive and not become stale or stagnant.

My knowledge is limited but I am doing a lot of research and tutorials.

Here is my point:

I’m looking for a platform, group, forum anything where I can present my concept and the experts tell me if viable and point me in the right direction.

Does this exist ?

So I usually upload every friday and in the 3 days that the videos are out the gather around 1000-2000 views. But the most recent that I uploaded only got 40 views so far.

For context I make videos about reviewing video game consoles and yeah I used the exact same formula but nope.

What's your story with having a flow of views and then one video just doesnt get anything?

A few months ago, a client asked me to edit some videos for his YouTube channel and mentioned that he had a subscription to Epidemic Sound and Hoopr. The thing is, now, quite some time after I delivered the content, he has just started uploading it after canceling his Epidemic Sound subscription. The music platform is claiming the video, and the client is asking me to fix it.

What can I do? If I get a subscription to Epidemic Sound and link it to his channel, could that stop the claims on that video?

I started youtubing almost 3 years ago and I did my account again about 1 year and several months ago because for my first account I bought some subs, views and likes by someone and it literally ruined my account. Dont do this btw..

But the topic itself. You actually need to work a lot for getting 1000 subs and the views needed. I am at 800 subs but my views aren even half way even tho I get "decent" amount of views per video averagely.

Just saying that 99% of new youtubers really need to work their ass off without getting paid a sent even for several years.

Keep going anyway! Do what you love!

Also, quality over quantity. You can spam videos every day but it does not really worth it if they are not getting views at all, so make sure you actually spend some time for scripting. But the idea is to just keep posting. At beginning dont try to make "perfect" videos, because you are on the way learning what works and what not. Also stay in specific niche, dont post "all around" videos.

I want to start faceless YT channels to earn but with automation. Im struggling with finding such AI tools for content creation and Automation tools. Can I get some help please?

So my question is which one is more beneficial? Hashtags to show or the city to show?

I’ve edited a video but it’s 21 minutes long and I feel that’s too long, how can I make it shorter?

d

I upload movie clips and i notice that the quality of the videos is dogshit compared to those in my niche. How do they get those 4k type of quality? Can i do that in my capcut? Like i don't get it, mine is sooo bad compared to theirs. Especially the edit ones, the quality of their video is the one i really want. Hope you can help me!

Hey everyone!

I just made my first video on YouTube, and I’m really passionate about deep social and philosophical topics.

Language is - Hindi
My target audience is primarily the Hindi-speaking population in India, which is why I chose to create the video in Hindi. 

I tried my best with scripting, editing, and production,

but it’s barely getting any views or impressions.

I’d love some honest feedback from fellow creators—
what’s missing? Is my pacing off? Is my topic uninteresting?

Any help would mean a lot!

Link is in my profile.

Hi, I’m really new to youtube and had a technical question I was hoping to get help with.

My last couple of videos have had 4/5k impressions but the CTR has been about 1%. I figured, at the very least, my content was getting pushed so, with some improvements to my titles and thumbnails, there was some potential to drive some more traffic.

However, my latest video is underperforming and I think it’s only been shown in my subscribers feeds.

I’m just a bit unsure what to do next. My next video is totally different to the usual let’s play style content and, given my niche, probably has the best chance at success. I’m confident that if this had the impressions the previous videos had, it would have a much higher CTR.

But now because the most recent video hasn’t been pushed, I’m worried that this one won’t as well. Is there any rhyme or reason to this? Or should I just trust in myself and post this video when it’s ready?

I’d really appreciate any help anyone could offer. Thanks!

Just to be more fair and (somewhat) more realistic, yes, you are allowed to have a Patreon. But nobody is donating to any random Patreon for no reason.

If you do not reach this goal, you’ll die, or go to prison or end up homeless or something.

The $100,000 USD MUST be made within 365 days, and it MUST come from YouTube, and/or Patreon which is connected to the YouTube channel (or some other donation/membership platform connected to YouTube if there are any).

You can’t realistically expect to make money from YouTube like that, especially in the short-term, but now your life literally depends on it. It must be treated more as a job or business probably.

You can do whatever you want (that Youtube allows).

What kind of videos are you making, how often will you make them, how will you make that $100K from your YouTube channel (and only ONE channel)?

Even if you do have a well paying job, business, or other source of income, only the money made from the YouTube channel (and/or Patreon for that YouTube channel) will count and be accepted.

You are also not allowed to tell anyone, or even “act” like you have to meet this goal in any of your videos, not even a skit about this.

What are you gonna do?

(You can use generative AI, because it’s just another tool like Photoshop, but even better 😊)

Just keep in mind that AI generated content will be watched by real people, so you want it to come out in good quality! (Which is possible!)

You can even outright beg for money, you just can’t say the true reason you need it.

I have a small channel and want to give away a business book (I recently purchased a duplicate) of course I would onto ship locally.

Any advice regarding YouTube terms etc?

My short has gone viral on multiple platforms and was doing well on YT with incredible audience retention, yet the views stopped at 450. What gives? 😅

I used to get 300 views every hour on average, but since 5 days YouTube started to suggest my shorts to very less poeple now I'm stuck at like 50 views pr hour. Is there anything I could do?

One of my recent(ish) videos underperformed and I am trying to figure out why. The video has a really good average watch time at nearly an hour, but on the flipside it reports a fairly low click-through-rate at 2.5 percent. As we all know, YouTube doesn't recommend videos with a low CLR which pretty much screws you over. However, when I check the suggested video data YouTube tells me I've gotten 22k views from 155k impressions. Shouldn't that be a CLR of 15%? Where is the 2.5 coming from? Some of the other data seems even more off the mark. One video in particular that this video was recommended on reports 4,753 impressions and 2,331 views. That could be CLR of about 50%, and yet YouTube claims it only has a CLR of 2.3%. The most egregious example is one video which reports 311 impressions for my video and 301 clicks (a near perfect click-through rate) and yet YouTube reports a CLR of 8.4%. I'm stumped. What's going on here? Someone please tell me I'm missing something and that I'm not being screwed over by some weird glitch that's causing YouTube to think my video has a far lower CLR than it actually has...

Finally found my groove on youtube after spending my whole life trying to figure it out. Finally got my first channel monetized.

It is a weird feeling now knowing that at least for the moment, I am making money in the background, no matter what I am doing. I know this is silly and it really is like cents or maybe a few bucks we are talking about (because I am still riding the high of a viral video) but it is just so dang cool.

I would really appreciate it! I feel that after about a year on YouTube, my subscriber and view count aren’t as high as others in my niche. Maybe it’s in my head, I’m not sure.

Hello everyone, hope youre having a good day!

i see this post pop up from time to time, "this person on discord is willing to promote me! is this a scam?" the answer to your question will always be a resounding yes.

if youre the type to network on public youtube discord servers, then you are bound to run into a couple of these kinds of characters and the main way they will try to gain your trust is by impersonating other on the rise youtubers or by coming with "official" promotion accounts

we are all new/small youtubers that are trying to get big on youtube and these people feed off this urgency and desire, do not be desperate and fall for their tricks. if you wish to do some type of promotion, then use the promotion tab on youtube (even though it wont be useful for small creators other than being a dopamine hit)

i made a video about this that goes into much more details about the telltale signs with real examples of the people i have interacted with and if you would like to see it just send me a DM and ill send it!

Good luck, have fun, and stay safe!

After my first video, I had dreaded editing videos for about 3 years. I shot many clips but never finished producing one final edit after the 1st one. Just this year, I’ve uploaded my 1st vlog and I had a wave of sense of achievement that I had not felt before. Even when I graduated from my masters program, I didn’t feel as much sense of accomplishment. Now, after my 3rd video, the feeling has subdued a bit. However, I think I’m still enjoying the process of learning as I go although it can be frustrating from time to time. I don’t yet have many views and all my handful subscribers are my friends, plus I might be burnt out in 6 months. But I’m interested in investing in this journey. Just wanted to share my recent youtube journey and how it has been making me feel.

3 of my channels are removed due to spam violation. I rarely upload to this channel, one of my channel has only 2 shorts (motion graphics) and 1 long form video (tutorial how to make long motion graphics).

Up until now I've always used a combination of Google Calendar, Word, Notepad, Excel, a whiteboard, and a physical notebook but it really is rather cumbersome. I've been looking around for an all-in-one (or at least nearly all-in-one) alternative. The one that appeals to me most is Trello, but the thing I need most (the calendar view) is part of their paid plan (and not even the cheapest one, either!). Now, I have no issues with paying once I've managed to land a job -- after all the service isn't free to deliver -- but right now, I'm on a fixed income and simply can't pay the 12.50 USD per month (which is just over $20 AUD).

After looking at a bunch of alternatives, the two that looked best for my needs are xTiles, followed by Notion. I'm kind of leaning towards xTiles simply because of ease of use compared to Notion. But, on the other hand, Notion has been around longer and is less likely to suddenly disappear from the scene.

So, what are your thoughts? If anyone uses the free versions of these two, are they enough for a small solo creator? I'd be using it to plan out video ideas, video production process, and social media posts.

Like I said, I will be happy to pay eventually, but for now, will the free versions meet my current needs?

I just started a baking channel on YT a few weeks ago but prior to that, I had an Instagram where I posted my baking and baking tutorials.

I used Instagram reels to create the content for Instagram which I can download and reupload onto YT but I don’t know:

1. If that’s allowed or will it penalise me?

2. If it’s the best thing to do considering they are different platforms. I still have the original footage. Maybe I should re-edit so it’s custom to YT?

I Focused on Short, Impactful Stories, Embraced Jump Scares, Explored Different Horror Subgenres. What more i should do. Please share if you have anything.

So I just started uploading on youtube and I worked really hard on my newest video, but it only had 10 views, im confused what I can improve on, bad thumbnail, pacing, editing, audio? anything helpful would be so greatly appreciated since im very new to this.
