No I'm not making money. I haven't met the threshold. Nearly all this is due to shorts.

Some recent shorts have this view pattern for the first 12 hours and they capped betweenn like 3-10k ish views, whereas the ones that got over 3M+ views had a normal exponential graph….needless to say that not this type of graph. Does this mean something? has anyone else noticed this?😭

After 50+ videos I got my first request to promote a product. It was basically an AI platform that was offering really large models for pennies on the dollar.

They offered me some decent money to promote the platform, but after doing some research, I found out the product is a scam and basically they promise some big things in their platform and don’t deliver and stop responding to customers.

It looked so real and legit too. Oh well. It sucked that when I was researching the product, there were so many other YouTubers in my niche domain that took the cash and promoted it. Their subscribers probably are out a decent change $ especially if they paid the yearly subscription.

Apart from youtube library do you have any suggestion on where I can find song royalty free for my videos? expecially kids songs and nursery rhymes… thanks!

Im a small fn creator can someone give me long video ideas

So I make gaming videos and mostly and only that. i probably started back in late 2020, but I forgot my password to my last account. Now i have a new account with 82 subscribers and i have good feedback besides one person once. I don't edit my videos, since i prefer raw footage/ Though I've been trying for 3 years. my progress has moved slowly. Which is cool. Though sometimes I feel like I won't never be a big youtuber small or not or have over 1k at least. So now I've done minecraft more and im getting past 100 views. Though soon you realize as a very small channel those views don't go as subs. They're views and I love that. I love knowing that somebody see's my channel and is willing to sit down and watch. But it's sad when i see im still low like ive been for the past 3 years. Youtube really isn't easy, but i try making the most of it. Anyhow Im a teen and just trying to thrive on youtube while moving from how i used to be immature and now a nice person who plays and tries staying very family friendly. Anyhow my channel is Keke1253. feedback is cool or if you wanna help me out and possibly watch thats nice too :)

What is your preferred video editor out of these two?
I've always used Capcut (the free version) but they made quite a few things pro now that I really need (especially reducing noise / voice enhancer).

I decided to download Davinci and I am struuuugggling to understand it. I can probably learn heaps on YT but I'm just weighing off - is it worth it paying for Capcut instead?

Or should I stick to Davinci and spend a few hours just watching tutorials?

Anyone used both and have a preference?

Thanks everyone for your support! Nothing is impossible!

I do youtube because I enjoy it. My first channel was started 16 years ago and at some point because of my channel views I was made partner. Then Youtube took partnership away from a load of people so I just kept plodding. All that to say still not made partner again as I can not get the watch hours.

I have a second channel that is monetised but it is very niche and I really don't expect it to grow much more than it has already (1,800).

I read a lot of posts on here and everyone seems so tech savvy and use acronyms all the time that I don't understand. I can look at my analytics but it may as well be a badly drawn map for somewhere I have never been.

Is there an idiots guide to understanding it all and finding ways of getting views on my first channel?
