There is only one rule: Do NOT give up.

[noobjoiner]

It's been a few months since I've gotten attention from the algorithm, and let me tell you: it gets really hard at the beginning. However, by spending time making videos and not being held back by the lack of attention, you will eventually pick up the pace, so keep making videos!

i used to worry about all this algorithms but these days i come home from work and just do what i enjoy and make videos that i enjoy making.

[EntropyWSE]

I feel really the same, it's been so hard with videos that takes me hours upon hours and thinking, wow the quality is amazing and then it's a 10/10. This kinda really gets you in doubt of yourself and what you are doing. Youtube is really hard imho. Still struggling after three years to understand what is holding me back from getting good views. Thank you for releasing content like this guys.

4 or 5 months ago i hit the jackpot on youtube. For a channel with around 300 subs, i used to get over 1k views on every video, with 2 of them having 30k and 47k views. Biggest mistake i did was taking a 3 months break because i was extremely bored with the game i was covering (i'm doing build videos in Elden Ring). After i started again, my views and impressions dropped drastically, only having 1 vid over 1k views, the rest around 300-700 views. My advice would be DON'T STOP, keep creating, especially if you feel you are close to success!

You can’t fail if you don’t give up 💪🏼 if you want it then LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN

The metric out of 10 has made me do drastic changes over time. It's useful but don't give up youngens.

I'm glad to hear somebody finally talking about the importance of impressions. No impressions = no views; YT and YT ALONE is in charge of impressions. I wish there was more rhyme or reason to why one thumbnail (video) is surfaced for 100, 000 people and your next thumbnail (video) is only surfaced to 25, 000. As a small creator, it often seems like YT is deliberately trying to keep us from being successful.

[EpisodicGamer]

For me, I think it's mostly the thumbnail that got me going. I started with 23 subscribers about a little over 2 weeks ago, and I only created 4 or so videos since then, really focused on designing my thumbnail. The metrics showed that I got 972 subs over the past 2 weeks. The topic of the video comes second. I just think that youtube algorithm likes you enough to organically promote your video if your thumbnail gets high impressions, and then if your topic is good enough, which gets lot of likes, then the algorithms likes you more to promote better.

To all you starting out creators, stay strong and just keep posting. Do not quit!

[satellitestreetmedia]

21:06 watch time is king. I watched your entire video because it was good and had the content I was looking for.
If everyone clicks through and stops watching within 5 seconds, YouTube will kill your video.

[FinanceFilly]

I am beyond frustrated, embodying a combination of rage, confusion, and amusement.

[steveeemanny]

I am still considering how actually youtube algorithm works, I tried so many times to attract it, but it is still not working. This and every your video surely will help everyone out. Thanks Rob for teaching us some useful things as usual, you are very helpful. Dont give up everyone and keep going with your hard work, its valuable and remember - it is not impossible!

[urbanharvestdfw]

here lately i haven't even looked at the analytics. or metrics..for me i have a full time job 50 hours a week plus other responsibilities. i made up my mind to just have fun and make good videos that connect. it go to point that it was so much extra work that it took the fun out of youtubing. i figure that last thing i need is another full time job. if it hits it hits if not im ok😊. for me personally im not trying to make it a full time job

[wingsofinspiration]

So true, everything is start with your determination, focus, patience and most of all consistency before you get the viewers attention. Just keep going!💪🏻

[ScizGraffiti]

This is a great video guys! I don't know how it's performing for you guys but for me this is a 1 of the last 10 on your channel! As a creator who's been doing this for 10+ years, this is a super useful video still for me and I think it's got a ton of value for the newer creators out there too. The conversational formate really works for you guys!

[YoutubetipzSPBK]

Ive noticed once i got monetised my views went down drastically. Youtube dont want to pay. Even the video that brings most money they stop promoting it even though all the metrics are green

[PlantSpam]

Noob here. Learning as much as I can! Thanks for your content. Maybe one day you will see my plants at the top!!! 😻

[Screen-Shorts]

Keep going! Your channel will grow, and we're in it together. Stay positive, fam!

[Calvin.The.Unfindable]

there's a lot to take in there, but i think i am gradually understanding the metrics - somewhat.
i may have to return a few times to this video. i really enjoyed how it was just like you two having a chat. the dynamic duo.
so much to learn, so much to try and implement beyond all the other things to learn about being creative. thank you for such an awesome community.
