10 HUGE Mistakes That YouTubers Keep Making 2024

[@Bullets4Bucks]

Paralysis by Analysis... meaning watching too many videos like this one instead of just putting in the real work.

[@DisabilityExams]

First mistake is at 7:10

[@TypeSpectrum]

1. Stop thinking about the KZbin Algorithm and only think about the Viewer a. Turn Potential Viewers into Active Viewer (watches more than 1 video) and hopefully a Core Viewer (huge fan, watches a lot of your videos) then Hard Core Viewer (leave comments, are really engaged, etc.) i. Focus on a content strategy that does this ii. A person can go from being a Hard Core Viewer all the way back to being a non-viewer due to lack of innovation/not understanding what the viewer wants b. You'll actually want to make material for everybody BUT the Hard Core Viewer to expand your audience, though perhaps more of the Potential and Active Viewers should be your primary focus

[@SusanSharma-WildbytesTV]

Thanks for the summary

[@NickNimmin]

Catching up after vacation, it's AWESOME that you're bringing Doug to VidSummit!

[@LowBudgetHighLimitFirefighter]

22:58 Thank you wo much for this. You're book and advice has helped my channel rocket passed other in my sector. I have friends that are paying social media companies thousands to do their thumbnails, titles and SEO but get minimal views and growth. All because that company doesn't understand our audience. They use bold colors, shocked faces, cool graphics but our audience doesn't care about or like that.

[@mazmedia44]

Hello Derral. I am learning about improving ones channel. I stumbled upon yours. Enjoying all the insights very much and thanks for the help !!! 😍

[@44Bdogg]

Congrats Doug on the VidSummit ticket hope u enjoy ur time there brother

[@4kVideoTours]

Great video, welcome back! I live by your book! It was cool to see you on Roberto Blake’s channel recently. 👍😎

[@Paulogia]

Could you please provide a link to HopeScope's viewer avatar video? It doesn't seem to come up in search. Thank you for all you do!

[@FrankieOver50]

It's on the VidSummit webpage. You can't view unless you purchased Vid Summit replays for that year unfortunately.

[@BridalSewing]

It was a VidSummit talk. You have to purchase the VidSummit replays.

[@lawandacowan9831]

Hey did you find it?

[@GenaroBardy]

It would help to put chapters on a 1:30 live

[@SlavGuns]

Thank you for delivering value as always, it is much needed in our industry. I had a blast volunteering at last Vid Summit and looking forward to doing it again this year, if the opportunity is there.

[@VlogEpicness]

Congrats Doug 🎉

[@RomyPeniche]

Hi! I was researching how to improve my KZbin channel, and I came across your content :) I've seen many videos of KZbinrs suggesting replicating others' videos, but that approach isn't for me. I don't want to chase views by copying others; I want to offer valuable content that aligns with who I am and resonates with my viewers. So, this video is perfect-thank you!

[@nikkidxkellyb]

Derral! This is my second channel and we launched a month ago. We launched with 3 videos like you said, but also did shorts. I've read your book and cant wait for the next book to be released. I've binged your Lives and learned so much form you. I have Vid Summit replays and cant wait to attend IRL!! Wish I could join jumpstart as well. We are getting most of our views for KZbin reccomended and Suggested Video which I know is good. It's only a matter of time. If you want to see my analytics I'd love to share. THANK YOU for doing these lives and taking the time to still educate us! Greatly Appreciate all your information!! one day I will shake you hand in person and meet the GOAT 🙌

[@nikkidxkellyb]

Would you be willing to do a deep dive live on how to read alanytics? Still trying to maneuver the advanced analytics and what they all mean. the important data points that matter and how to find it etc....

[@ThePrepperMom]

Oh my gosh, there are SO MANY excellent tips and ah-ha moments in this video. Per your recommendation... I just watched MrCoban's video "Will the CHEAPEST car on Facebook make it to Barcelona?" Wow... he is so interesting. Tons of value in watching this video for creators. Love it. Thanks Derral!!!🚗

[@nextlevel5265]

Can you link those KZbinrs you were speaking about in the video?

[@SketchbookStudioo]

I'm halfway through your book, I'm so happy I can watch your vidoes.

[@domehouse79]

Great video. Your mic peaks a lot though causing distortion.

[@mrflynn01]

Yes!

[@peachxtaehyung]

I don't hear anything

[@theofficialgwiz]

You must be an audio person too? I always notice that and it distracts me from the message. I turned it down so I can get the content though.

[@aquicondiego13]

Siempre dando tan buen valor Derral, no veo la hora en la que sea un jumpstarter

[@xoHannahSebastian]

Which year did HopeScope speak at VidSummit so I can buy the correct replays? Thank you!

[@NaickKim]

I know she spoke in 2022 (I think for the first time). It's a great talk, I just happened to have rewatched it this week. Not sure if she also spoke in 2023.

[@NaickKim]

Just watched the part where he talks about Hopescope and yes it's the 2022 talk where she goes really deep into her avatar, etc. Also goes deeper on retention strategies, etc.

[@lawandacowan9831]

How do you find the replays?

[@TLMOUSE]

Wish I can Join your group Derral! Trying hard to save up :) Love to get your full wisdom! Thanks again for really great insight! Given for free!

[@lawandacowan9831]

How much is it to be mentored by him?

[@MySonsMother]

Doug is definitely a good supporter!

[@MommyGuideInc]

Wow, Congratulations Doug!

[@sophiemoconnell]

Derral, I have to ask... is that a cushion of your head in the background?

[@scotadam]

Thanks for the information you provided and being an educator. As a grade school teacher, I look forward to being a student myself at Vidsummit.

[@aircraftadventures-vids]

This was mind-blowing. THANK YOU, Derrel!

[@ArrLost]

Oh no, missed the stream :( Sry Derral The Newsletter didn´t work this time

[@ChopChopRecipes]

One of your best video. Thank you for all the gold nuggets. ❤

[@jjphank]

How do I get my comments from being blocked when I cut and paste things that I don’t want to repeat saying! Is it the algorithm that picks me up as a bot or even if I say the same things instead of the cut and paste comment, It still picks it up and deletes my comments! SOMEBODY HELP

[@unleashthefamily]

Old School Star Wars all the way brother!

[@Andrei-Lemeshevski]

Great info , Derral 🙏

[@BuildwithMooney]

Derral thank you so much! It's always a treat when you go live, because I personally know after only 1 year on KZbin that you are going to be super passionate and motivating. I've been following your journey with "The Chosen" you and your team are incredible. Such a great interview with Mike Rowe and the Harmon Brothers. I know you are a very busy man and you still take the time to give your heart, passion and money to anyone that will listen and willing to grow in life and KZbin. I can't think you enough for all of the help you have given me. This LIVE was exactly what I needed, because it's what you teach in your book, but it's hard to understand until you reach that point in your YT journey and having you talk directly to me just felt good. I'm so new at this KZbin stuff and all I hear is keep going DON'T GIVE UP!! I'm not giving up, it's hard when you are a ONE MAN SHOW like me, of coarse I have a great support team, but it's just me learning everyday trying get better at EVERYTHING and we are not even talking about my craft, KZbin has consumed me being the producer, director, editor etc... I'm a blue collar worker LOL not a film producer!!! Thank you once again! John Mooney

[@44Bdogg]

Good morning everyone

[@CMMDecoratingonaBudget]

Wow!!! I would love to go..

[@RegeniasMinkOil]

Hello there my friend

[@ZEKEtrickSHOTS]

storytelling ( word )

[@TheRushmoreShow]

Great video, thank you

[@francostella6681]

The 30 day challenge site is not working

[@1980xyz]

How can I find out who is trolling me in you tube comments. I think it’s a fake name,

[@gridirongamer]

I usually just block them or use the "hide this user" feature so their comments won't appear anymore.

[@pasquinilli]

Why do you care? Just block them

[@peachxtaehyung]

Unfortunately i don't think you fully can. All you can do is hide them from the channel

[@1980xyz]

Don’t think I can block,

[@peachxtaehyung]

@@1980xyz why? You should be able. Go either to your yt studio and go to I think settings then community and the hide user, or go into your comments section, look for that person's comments trolling you, then click the 3 dots, and hit hide user on this channel

[@ThatsBadTV]

I cannot watch most of my older videos .. they are terrible lol

[@savageavocato056]

Thank you so much for the update 😊

[@kingcmctv]

good live

[@1980xyz]

[@ZEKEtrickSHOTS]

boomer scale 🤣

[@theofficialgwiz]

This year was my first year at VidSummit @1:15 but of course I finally watch this video AFTER I had the time of my life connecting with all the coolest people I've ever met! @Derral Eves, I found my tribe thanks to you and @Myron Golden! Thank you guys for showing us how to actually help people! I'm excited to elevate my KZbin game and partner with people to make the impact I was made to make!

[@SethSkoda]

I just tweeted you on Twitter/X

[@SethSkoda]

Also, I want to confirm if my associates need tickets.
