Don't Make THESE MISTAKES When Starting a YouTube Channel

[@austroinvest5656]

Thank you so much for your valuable information Peter. Started a channel 2 days ago and it already went kind of viral because of you. Love you 🐐

[@ElusiveFrame]

Thanks Peter! 🙌 Good luck to everyone out there. Keep believing and persisting. Success will follow. 💪🤩

[@SteveWB]

I believe that your channel grows in conjunction with your skill level. If you get a bunch if subs from a shout out or viral video and your skill level is not there to maintain those subs your channel will suffer a sub crash and it will Kill the channel. I speak from experience.

[@LegatDeClujLDC]

I agree, Steve.😉

[@SteveWB]

@@LegatDeClujLDC Hey Buddy glad to see ya here!

[@LegatDeClujLDC]

@@SteveWB Peter and HowToGuy are just 2 of what we have in common. KZbin is not that big of a place 🤣

[@SteveWB]

@@LegatDeClujLDC lol

[@Watcheyes]

Agree Steven and I have seen it happen. Some channels review other channels that they think might hit 1000 subs. It was a total of 3 channels, I looked back and all of them got stuck on this particular case. I also think it's a bad idea to "beat" the algorithm. If you get very good at what you do you will grow, there is now shortcuts! Hope it will turn out good for you Steve, stay safe!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Thanks for the reminder Peter... I've been on KZbin for six years and haven't missed a week during this time. I'm still a smaller channel but I'm enjoying the journey and waiting for the moment to pop. If you don't enjoy it, you won't keep uploading!

[@BracketReviews]

Overthinking got me most time. Two of my top performing video were kept for long before I eventually publish it and they are doing well. Now, I just do as they come. No thinking much except for planning. 👍

[@JashimJalal]

Patience for your audience to find you. Dedication to excel at your craft while understanding the platform consistency so you are always practicing and becoming 1% better than yesterday. Having fun is a crucial element for longevity. Nice tips Peter!

[@BracketReviews]

That 1% is very vital. 👍

[@ValeriaLysk]

Oh yeah having fun is crucial! 😁👏

[@TheDecompressionZone]

Great advice all around! Thanks! 👍

[@sanderduijvis]

Thank you for these tips! I am in the beginning of my KZbin journey and it is inspiring to see your vids. Thank you!

[@BeingRealGeorge]

I am the master of copying TOPICS but making something totally different. You make good points

[@EdgardB]

Thank You for the helpful tips. Great video as always Peter. Blessings

[@paulcain548]

Great advice Peter. Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

[@ElementaryBrewingCo]

Love your take on things, thanks for all the info you’ve provided!

[@MarioSoMedia]

Thanks for the advice Peter! Definitely a marathon! It's important to create videos just because you enjoy it and challenge yourself to make each video better than the previous one. ✌️

[@TeppoHaapoja]

Solid wisdom right here my friend!

[@markwiemels]

Man this is sooo sooo good, thanks Peter! The overthinking and making videos into an huge task! So much my problem.

[@benjamin.kelley]

Understanding that around 60-80% of what you shoot won't be used has been a huge help, not only for KZbin, but for weddings and other video work. You helped me out when you said "show, don't tell". I always think "My god this video is boring" and it's because I explain too much, and don't get to the point when I do explain. Planning is VERY important, and something ad simple as writing down a few key ideas can help make a video make sense and flow well. Over 40 videos, and only 44 subscribers - it's tough - but with each video I'm learning and putting in the reps of using the gear, setting the lights, speaking more concisely, helping me with my business and personal growth.

[@IaconoAndre]

Just keep going bro! Cheering for you.

[@dymcozzy]

I can end up preparing pop corn for chow before while watching your videos, way how they deserve more views and subscribers. You're always on the level of thinking for other people instead of promoting yourself. You're so special to me. I'm really investing in this channel and wish it more grow as possible as it can. Written from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@hikingwithadhdbrain2022]

I use the time it takes :) I'm now up to 73 subscribers since my start in May this year! Yes it is as you say this is a marathon! Wishing you a glorious weekend Peter!

[@Sateliteck]

Love your content and by the way awesome lowerthirds where can I get them?

[@LivingLifewithJudith]

Those are great advice. The one that stood up for me is definitely the "stop over thinking"... man that's hard! Lol

[@ValeriaLysk]

Hahaha I liked it as well - stop overthinking 😁

[@1Zero9999]

Tusen takk for delte informasjon med oss, youtube er vanskelig, aldri lei å lage vdeo, men miljø kan være tøft!! Lykke til til deg og God jul til deg og dine familie 🌲🎁🎉

[@trevorshipman5022]

Always love these videos you do Peter! I want to start a YT channel but I’m still dealing with the fear of getting started and my videos wont be good. These videos always help me think more carefully about it and help me get through that fear. 🙏🙏

[@maximumdrone5334]

This is now one of my top favorites video to watch almost every day. Thank you so much Peter for these awesome KZbin tips :) I really appreciate it

[@Paleoish]

Love this video and the tips! I am at the very starting phase of my KZbin journey and its definitely been stressful but looking forward to having fun with it and to just remain consistent with uploads.

[@EricsTechFR]

Thanks for sharing these tips Peter! You rock man! 😉👍🏻👏🏻

[@embarklife]

great video, really spoke to me about the over thinking and the build up of an idea becoming too much to tackle, and rather creating from the initial spark. i def still copy my favorite creators, it allows me to have a solid jumping off point, but i def be trying to play into my strengths rather than try and fit my message into the style of someone else. the second draft is always where the moments come together, literally without the buffer that existed in the first draft.

[@RYANPARKPHOTOGRAPHY]

Thanks for the great advice! I always tend to over think and ended up not making video.. i should try to make video as soon as i got the ideas.

[@TheFelixsKitchen]

Brother GREAT episode! Well done. As a new culinary filmmaker on KZbin this episode gave us better direction. If ever on Hawaii Island come experience our Chefs Table. Be safe and Thanks a Million for this episode. Aloha🤙🏾

[@RafaelLudwig]

The audio! haha! I have done that a few times, the audio setting wrong, or not plugged in (your next video - Biggest mistake Biggest YT'rs make) 🤓 All great point Peter! Hope you have a great rest of your day!

[@PeterLindgren1]

HAha SO many times ^^

[@tombuck]

I have learned to ALWAYS do some test recordings beforehand 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@networkgeek4449]

Thanks man, love the tips as always:)

[@CraigNiesenPhotography]

Peter, excellent points across the board. This video is another example of why you have the subscriber base that you do. Well done. Peace and Safe Travels.

[@StianTorp]

Thanks Peter! I am studying lighting at the moment, so this was spot on😉👍

[@PaulFeinberg]

Great video as always! One day I will get me some Pavotubes 30c's. For sure got to enjoy it or you will never last and Yes I have been trying to cut out footage and make my videos more to the point and shorter as well. Great tips!

[@dougcooper4917]

Excellent Video Peter, and Excellent Advice! I Greatly Appreciate It.

[@portodbs]

Good advice needed a pick me up and watched this exactly what I needed to hear, I love it when that happens. It’s definitely a marathon. Slowly going up as the content gets better.

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

All good reminders, and all good tips. Thank you! I like your new Outro language, uniquely Peter’s. 👋🏼🇨🇦

[@peterdemuth]

Thanks Peter, noted 👍 always good to get some new tips.

[@gotophotoarchive9131]

Nice and realistic tips... thanks for sharing.

[@PeterKae]

Glad to hear some of those advices! Sometimes you forget why you started. I'm still enjoying every second of it

[@TechWithSabri]

My opinion is: ** The growth of KZbin channel is depends on your skills and the subject also. ** In the same time, Peter, i have a small question: Why you stopped making B-Roll vids? Thanks man for your time, we appreciate your efforts.

[@PeterLindgren1]

Because I got tired of making them.

[@TechWithSabri]

@@PeterLindgren1 I agree. good luck man

[@doesitcomeinblack]

As always… thank you Peter! I really enjoy starting my day with your vlogs, thank you for encouraging* us beginners :)

[@bricksblocksandmocs]

Really great video and advice🙌 Exactly what I needed!

[@nicklasidiot]

Hi Peter. This was amazing. From all of your vids this gave me the most. Thank you. Pavel

[@juzzonmorris]

Excellent advise as usual, my creative brother from another mother!👊🏾🔥🔥🔥

[@samuelpatchett684]

Thanks Peter!

[@Kalana_Herath]

Great video..Thanks peter😃..

[@sweetcountryhome]

Great tips and so true, one idea of content easily grows to becoming too big to create if I don't create them as soon as I come up with them 😊

[@bahaatamer1245]

I did the same audio mistake a few days ago. I visited a tuner shop to record a new video, and accidentally had the TRS to TRRS adapter input into my camera. Was disappointed when I got home, after a long video, I realized it was Audio-less 😅 Ended up re-recording the video with the people working there. They were pretty chill about it :) (only regret is, the first draft had a lot more action)

[@jaycrown6927]

I definitely relate to forgetting to adjust the audio levels. Started using a lavalier mic recently and there were times when recording that I was almost wrapping up a video and realized I forgot to turn the mic on.😅 Definitely agree that it's a marathon. Slow and Steady wins the race! Loving the content!!

[@Watcheyes]

Very good tips here Peter! I often see it as you have to "breath" KZbin. Love doing it, filming, editing, the whole platform, have a good working area for creating. Love the grind etc, it's hard. Thank you Peter, like these interesting discussions and thoughts. Tack! Mvh Josef

[@Raptvre_media]

Really great breakdown of this whole topic. I in fact am exactly at the point of starting my channel and I have to admit that I am guilty of a few of your points, especially when it comes to the copying thing. In the end I've learned a lot from simply enjoying the process of making

[@AdventureTravelandScuba]

Lots of great tips and real, here is me over 2 years on KZbin no stress I'll het there when i get there if at all who knows but why not have fun and post my adventures and share the content

[@ValeriaLysk]

You have something that no one in this world has - YOU! What a phrase man!!! I agree 100% 👏👏👏 And also agree with coping other more successful channels. Of cause, as a small beginner channel I inspire in the gran channels. But actually I see so much copies of some super famous fitfluencers (of lower quality of cause) and it looks ridiculous... Thanks for sharing these tips!

[@RobertGossCreator]

Thanks so much peter great advice

[@TIME2BORN]

It was very useful Peter. Thnx a lot 👍🏼

[@TimberTransport]

Good to know that i am doing pretty much all the mistakes you described.

[@TechMixr]

Just subbed with this account 🤣 I watch you religiously and now that I’m started, I love all this advice 💪🏾🙏🏾

[@LTNYstudio]

All very very well spoken information. Yet I do want to add just one thing to it. I edit for a Good friend that owns a KZbin channel called wild Wild West. We noticed that our audience actually enjoys when we drag out the videos (length wise) while still keeping it concise… so the note I’m adding is that the overall length shouldn’t matter too much but rather if you are continually pushing the footage along or just dragging on talking to the camera. Idk if that makes sense but just a note I thought might be useful:) maybe a more in-depth response to what you said. Good video tho!

[@kelfn98]

thanks alot I start in youtube this week already and the video is come in the best time for me thank bro💙💙

[@Souchoroukof]

Great tips. I can say that I make some of these mistakes. Will definitely help me for my future videos🙌

[@electronicgallerya]

Thank you

[@TpPartsRcXtreme]

Thank you Peter, for some good advice 🥰

[@AnAussieinAmerica]

Perfect tips mate.

[@BrannonNod]

Ahhh I almost thought you were going to say My Hair Light behind me...OHHHH I was Gonna Tease You On That Peter😁 Merry Christmas🎄

[@SidsDrakon]

Always with great tips. Also you rock 😁

[@CK3DPRINTS]

When you reach 1M you should do the balloon video all over again. Same camera, same type of location 😅 Also, shortening a video this morning. Great advice 🤘

[@PeterLindgren1]

HAha that would be wild! Can't believe it's been almsot 3 years!

[@CK3DPRINTS]

@@PeterLindgren1 you've had a great run! I honestly believe you are the hardest working KZbinr I follow. And now a 2nd channel!? 😅🤯

[@RGMGFitness]

Peter, great points. Nothing harder than spending weeks/months planning a trip to somewhere like Iceland, filming a gorgeous waterfall, and realizing you only needed 5-10 seconds of that shot to tell the story. 😳. More than that and viewers are already losing interest. 😉

[@RoweneDaniels]

This was very helpful, thank you.

[@Ibrahim-jy5js]

I think i was one of these people who subscribed after poker video 😀 It was really great indeed And i trust your advices, i feel like you really want to help us not like others who make these advices as a clickbait

[@TakashiSapida18]

Thanks very helpful 😊

[@HOTDANGSHOW]

I could care less about "Growth", my biggest struggle is WATCH TIME.

[@DHG947]

Peter lindgren is awesome!

[@JasonMikhow]

When you do your daily vlogs, do u still have time to make a first draft or do u just post them as is?

[@PeterLindgren1]

I never have a second draft on them.

[@djangojosefssonfilmmaker3237]

Super bra video för mig som vill glra lite filmer och klipp bra tips och mycket bra video peter super 👍👍

[@maddavisdog07]

I am always impressed with his English. Guys he's not a native speaker! Please share about that experience how you picked up English some time on your vlog.

[@ahmedhallajian8886]

My biggest mistake was not starting earlier!

[@doesitcomeinblack]

Same! Better late than never though!! 🙌

amazing video Peter. Was wondering if you would do a behind de scene with the Video you shot Dead by April amazing video you shot there and love that band.

The challenge of consistency when you are starting out is hard. I’m probably trying to start for the 3rd time. 😂

You are intelligent

Yes you’re correct

The biggest mistake KZbinrs make when starting a channel: *Quit*

[@lucemiserlohn]

Or starting a bit, then running out of content, and there goes the regular release cadence...
