I’ve been on this journey for multiple years. I’m about to break 800 and know I can hit 1000 by the end of the year. Stay humble! Knowing I have a lot to learn has improved my growth substantially!

[HenrysPokeCorner]

Here’s the MOST important tip that I’ve learned: Fall in love w the process. If you want to make videos everyday, do it! If you want to focus on shorts do that too! Whatever u chose, fall in love w the process of making that better everyday and don’t watch your sub count. 🎉

[StephaniePerry]

Can I add a 16th brutal reason? You aren't collaborating.

Some of these problems can be helped with collaboration. While you're improving at Brutal Reasons 1 - 15, work with other channels / creators who are already good at these things. Be a guest on their channel. Bring them on as a guest on yours. They'll help make your videos better. Plus you'll be able to reach new viewers who wouldn't have found you any other way. We don't grow alone.

I am actually so tired of the top comments on all VidIQ vids being the exact same 'anyone reading this, know that u will make it'

[grizzlymusicyt]

I’ve been chasing my YouTube dream since 2016, creating and deleting over 12 channels along the way. It’s been a tough journey with many setbacks, but this time, I’m locked in and not giving up, GOOD Luck if you have same story.

[roachsyrup]

Just reached 900 subs after 7+ Years of straight Grinding😭🙏

No matter how long you have been doing this, you will always succeed💯

[NaudVanDalen]

Another brutal reason is that I've already forgotten over 10 brutal reasons, right after watching this video.

[nellies-taekook-journals]

I just hit 2000 subscribers this year. And it seemed as soon as I did, YouTube stopped listing how many subscribers a creator has... I've reached 2500 subscribers and now no one knows. It doesn't seem fair.

[CreatureChroniclesUK]

I eat boring for breakfast...
I'm finding every animal in the UK on my channel, I'm super close to 1000 subscribers now! Thanks for all the great advice!
I hope everyone reaches their YouTube goals soon 😁

anyone reading this, you will learn from experience and it may come fast or slow, but it is possible for anyone
biggest suggestion I have as someone who hit 1k in 1 month, target small niches that you enjoy and make a plan on how to expand whilst still keeping your original audience interested once you have 5k+ or something

[ShanePlaysTV]

MR VID IQ. I am so grateful for the on going knowledge! I finally surpassed 1K subs from one video. You’re a legend. The information from all these videos are so amazing.


Just now time to focus on growing. Going to dive more into the niche and expand out woulds. I know doing so can have a split audience, but I think with gaming, it isn’t good to have everything in one basket. I’m trying to stay in a niche,

but I think expanding and trying different things every now and then can’t hurt. My role is, 80% what is working, 20%, test, see what else works. 😊

[PolishHistorian]

I think the hardest part is just getting impressions when you're not big enough to get recommended to people

[Logicoding-m]

I am a 12 years old boy. I love your videos Rob❤. You really encourage people to watch. I will make sure all my YT friends suscribe and watch your videos. I really appreciate you

[MaskedAnimations]

And the crazy part is that I was literally about to hit 1000 subscribers but then I lost like almost 20 subscribers in the past week and now I’m stuck to about 980 subscribers and I never got unstuck since. 😭😭

[drivingdaily]

I technically havent, but im close! 947 subscribers asbim typing this. I would like to take this opportunity to wish the best of luck to other small YouTubers out there, keep working! Youve got this! 💪

[Official_Cactus]

I’m almost halfway🥳. To anyone reading this.. keep it up! Just upload as much as you can and you WILL make it 💯⭐️

[TheGreatPokemonChase]

We are at 949 subscribers after 5 years. Some of these issues we had on our channel and we improved or are continuing to improve. We won’t give up. I know the algorithm is against us small channels but we just got to keep grinding. Best of luck to fellow small channel's!

[EldionDoesGames]

I’ve gotten 100 subs and now, I haven’t gained a single sub for 2 days straight. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, and after watching this video and realizing what I’ve done wrong, I’ll try to fix it and hope to gain at least one.

[diytoptricks]

*Wow, this video really hit home! It’s so easy to get discouraged when growth is slow, but understanding these common pitfalls makes all the difference. Now I’m more motivated to keep pushing forward. Great content as always!*

[FleurdeLyzCoaching]

Just got accepted to YPP! 🎉Was eligible to apply upon 5 months of joining, applied and got rejected.😭 Took almost 2 months to figure out that the 'replicated content' reasoning was because of an interview video we have up (it's up on the interviewer's channel) 😅. This journey (so far) has been interesting to say the least... So to those who are frustrated and confused on their way to becoming monetized, we hear you... you're not alone and don't give up! As 'annoying' (and sometimes silly) as this journey can be, make sure that you're having fun in the process and you'll get there! 🙌
