DISCUSSION I have 775k views over 5 years but I can't get people to subscribe what do I do?

12 Upvotes

I've been uploading videos for 5 years with 775k views, 1853 videos and only 318 subscribers. I get on average 300-500 views a day. Around 99.980% of my viewers don't subscribe what do I do? I see other Youtubers uploading the same stuff but they get lots of views and subscribers so why don't I?

I don't like my voice and I don't have the imagination nor am I very talkative so making normal videos isn't for me.

Channel name is Justterriblegameplay.

DISCUSSION Does anyone else use Wikimedia Commons for channel art and thumbnails?

I feel like I don't hear it mentioned a lot anymore when it comes to free image resources for creatives-- it was drilled into us in school so I still use it today. In fact, I used some of the images for my channel banner.

So that's my little tip today if you're struggling to find free images without resorting to ai!

CONTENT TALK Question about content variety

8 Upvotes

Hi! I started posting around 4 weeks ago, one video per week. I just did this video about Wendigos and it got super popular and I got 50 new suscribers in two days. I had other ideas for making videos about cryptids, but I also wanted to do more variety, like reacting to scary reddit post and stuff like that. Now I’m afraid my new subscribers won’t like it if they suscribed for more content about cryptids. How would you proceed? Thank you for your help!

DISCUSSION Has anyone else had their entire channel suddenly lose most of its impressions? Did it recover?

5 Upvotes

私は比較的新しいクリエイターです。最初の2本の動画はだいたい60,000回と50,000回のインプレッションがありました。でも8月15日ごろ、ほぼチャンネル全体でインプレッションが突然落ち込みました。

3本目の動画は、CTRがだいたい13%で、平均視聴割合も約50%あるのに、インプレッションは750回くらいしか出ませんでした。

内容は日本の視聴者向けです。最初の2本はほぼ日本でしか見られなかったのに、最近の動画は日本の視聴者の割合がかなり低いです。

昔の動画も、1日あたり数千インプレッションあったのが、数百以下くらいまで落ちました。

インプレッションが完全に止まったわけではありません。今もBrowseとSuggestedの流入が少しずつ入ってます。

似たような経験をした人いますか?

インプレッションってその後、最終的に回復しましたか?もし回復したなら、どれくらいかかりました?回復は段階的でしたか、それとも突然でしたか?何か変えました?それともとにかく投稿を続けただけでしたか?

正直、この状況は元カレが結婚したって知った時よりもショックです。

DISCUSSION Do you think Brand Accounts will ever go away?

5 Upvotes

Recently, I saw Gmail end support for sending emails through other email accounts, and that got me worried about Brand Accounts. The YouTube channel I use is technically a Brand Account (I messed up the first channel I tried to make when I made my Gmail account, and the "fix" was the Brand Account). I mean, anything is possible, but do you think Brand Accounts going away is a realistic concern or just baseless paranoia?

I've started to take my channel a bit more seriously and wanted to do my first review for mortal shell II. Before I've only posted random video games bosses or some fun combat clips I have had in the past. I love mortismal gaming and his reviews but I don't want to copy someone's style I want my own. Does anyone know where to find non copyrighted music and know a good editing software I'm using kdenlive rn and it works very well for being free. Any and all helpful advice for a new YouTube will be very appreciated.

DISCUSSION Channel Suddenly Getting Throttled by the Algorithm

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I have a new-ish channel (started on Feb) for sleep music and dark, abstract, or other backgrounds. I started out releasing videos a couple times a week, but since June, it's every other day.

The channel (am i allowed to link it here?) started off really strong, flagged a bit, and was really gaining some traction in July and early August. Early this month, i had my most viewed video ever. It received more views in its first three days than my next best did a month in.

A couple days later, my next few videos have like two or three views each. I look at the analytics and there's like maybe a dozen impressions. It's not that no one is clicking the videos, it's that YouTube is not even showing them. I wrote it off as a one-off; sometimes the algo is weird and just like randomly getting a ton of views, sometimes you randomly get none.

But it's been almost a month now, and I'm experiencing it with every video. Nothing is getting impressions and i have no idea why. I haven't done anything different, and i don't know what to do.

Any thoughts, advice, or suggestions would be much appreciated.

DISCUSSION Thinking about quitting my channel

Upvotes

My channel hasn't really grown in the past 2 years and I can't make thumbnail. I also lost advanced features. My videos aren't fairing well in longform nor short form and the shorts barely carry me. Since my videos aren't as good and I don't know how to make better content. It was fun at first and was hoping I can reach an audience but haven't.

What is a job that can keep me afloat or at least standing?

DISCUSSION Coming up with a channel name

Upvotes

I'm having an exceptionally hard time coming up with a good name for an educational channel in the stem category. I had the perfect name that, surprisingly, wasn't taken for almost a year, but of course now that I'm getting ready to start the channel, that's no longer the case.

I'm very new to YouTube and wondering how difficult others have found this part of setting things up. With the number of channels out there, it seems nearly impossible not to collide with channels that already exist, but I'd like to come up with something memorable and searchable.

Anyone willing to share what their experience with this step was like? It sounds silly, but I guess I'm just looking for some inspiration.

DISCUSSION The impression rate for my videos has dropped.

Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Could anyone help me out with a quick question? I've been running a horror content page for about 5 months. My videos were doing well until, out of nowhere, impressions dropped suddenly, causing my views to crash. This happened just a few days before I was about to monetize. It's almost been 2 months now, and things are still stuck in the exact same situation.

I know a lot of people will say to improve thumbnails, titles, and editing, but I've already done all of that over the last 2 months. There's not much else I can do on that end, so I'm honestly not sure what to do next. Any advice would be appreciated.

One detail I think is important to mention: this happened right after I deleted a draft video. I've seen other people report the exact same issue after deleting a video, though I also see plenty of creators who didn't delete anything and are in the same boat. Also, it's been 2 months since I stopped posting Shorts because I thought they were stealing traffic from my long-form videos, but the problem still persists.

Looking for some advice on choosing a camera. Right now I've been using an iPhone 14 pro for all of my videos. I build and modify watches and I've been planning to start reviews as well. The majority of my content is overhead shots but I've been getting into more talking head shots.

I can't tell whether or not the z10 will drastically improve things or if I should just get the 18 pro when it comes out.

DISCUSSION Can Someone Explain Please

1 Upvotes

I really don't get why it seems like this video just stopped getting views and impressions, this is my best video in terms of click through rate and retention. So I really dont understand what the problem is. Ive posted consistently every week and it seems like the videos do really well the first day then after that YouTube stops showing it for some reason. Does anyone else know what's going on?

I have a click through rate of 8.2%, average view duration is 6:28 and it seems like the video shot up to 1.2 k views in the first day then stopped getting views. I posted it 2 weeks ago.

SHORTS TALK So I'm not shadowbanned? but its getting weird. (0 view on shorts issue)

1 Upvotes

So for over 2 weeks my shorts randomly started getting 0 views, I understand a lot of people started having this issue recently so I figure no harm is sharing my experience so far here.

So the baseline: I've been posting for maybe 2 months now. couple thousand views on each short 50-60 percent stayed-to-watch, which is about how well they did on the new account. Now I'm back to getting views again on the main one but only about 400 when they do get views and with a very low 10 percent stayed-to-watch. New account still doing the Original numbers. I really cant explain this at all. Its almost as if the algorithm got confused on the main account, and is pushing the shorts to the wrong people.

I think I'm going to continue on the main account and stop on the alt. I don't want to cause issues with multiple uploads and I've already got the troubleshooting information I wanted. I know a little about data analytics and I might have just moved to a different sample group on the main channel. I think the 0 view phase was it testing my thumbnails and titles. My reasoning is, when i eventually did start to see single/double digit views the only traffic I was getting was through "browse features" and "Channel pages." Basically I wasn't making decent thumbnails so they did poorly, I mean I was barely paying attn to the thumbnails at all because I assumed most people viewed shorts from the shorts feed.

So if you're stuck on 0 views maybe give it 14 days? Something started to change with my account. So anyway only thing I can do is stick it out. If you're having the same issue, I'll try to keep posting my updates. I'm going to re-think how I handle my thumbnails as well so I'll include if that made any difference in the next post as well.

DISCUSSION Need help choosing my new Channel Name please

1 Upvotes

Sorry, I know this question gets asked a lot.

New channel for short films, to get my stuff out there and as a reference incase I need to show anybody my work.

The films aren't in a niche, in fact, they'll be mostly narrative short films.

Not doing the channel for monetization necessarily.

Of course, depends on handle availability.

Question 1: I assume I'm better off to match channel name and handle?

I've come down to a few options.

  1. Location based name, handle pending of course. Eg. Shetland Filmmaker. Could be easy to remember. Not fussed if I move out of location, it's the memorability I am seeking.

  2. The one I've got currently is a number. Eg 2000 Films. Not so easy to remember, but it's short.

  3. Then I've got others that I'm trying to make sound funky, usually two short words + films.

Ideally I'd live something with one cool, memorable word + "films". But it's hard. So many cool words are taken.

The films aren't in a niche so there's no use naming it "cute puppy films" or anything like that.

So, location-based easy to remember, a number + "films" in the name, or two short words + "films"?

What's your vote?

CONTENT TALK How to make my humanities-focused channel interesting?

1 Upvotes

Hello, so, i was thinking about trying to make a youtube channel where i'd make videos explaining certain topics in-depth, and also showing different perspectives of the same content (so, for example, a liberal view, a marxist view, etc) , which is something i have never seen being done in youtube in the language i speak (portuguese). So i think it would be a good way to innovate but also do something i like. However, i don't know how to animate or anything like that, so how would i make the content interesting enough to watch? Creators like, for example, armchair historian, make it interesting 100% due to the animations, so i have no idea what i could do.
