[@Neon_The_GOAT]

tnks I love ur channel.

[@SkoopStudios]

Marcus I want you to make a video about music channels cuz I wanna know what Im doing wrong

[@Dare-Blue]

I think my favorite thing about these videos are all the people in the comments straight up in the fight for it. I love it. I'm with you all. If i can figure out the way I will let you all know.

[@SquareVoyage314]

I'm not even worried about getting monetized at this point I just want to find my fan base

[@chillhousemiix]

Good one😊

[@SquareVoyage314]

What people don't reliese if I build a fan base there are a 100 ways to monitize yourself just by having a group of fans you have a group of people that will buy merchandise from there you can go the hard route and continue to push your own merchandise or you can contact all your favorite Brands and say I built a fan base and am selling my own merchandise but I love your products can I be a sales associate and if you are realy selling your own stuff successfully and can prove that to them they will give you sales codes that you can earn commissions on evertime they are used and that is just one of the more popular ways youtube is used to make you money before monetization there are 100s of other ways currently being used and people will find more . If you make a video about this at least throw me a shout out

[@Kikokikz_RPG]

Same 😅😅

[@jackbaldwin2307]

Bro not to be rude but you want to find your fan base but your not actually doing the tips offered in these videos. Your thumbnails and titles are bloody awful.

[@reborngreatnesss5712]

Same but I don’t call them fan base I call them my community it sounds a lot more better. The more people/community you get they will generate money for you simple as that

[@NC-Project]

Thanks for having us on! (oh god I should've shaved). Good luck to all content creators out there - Lewis & JC from NC Project ❤️

[@zlance1993]

I love how you mentioned Research being such an important part from when you were talking. Do you keep your research limited to just YT or do you also spread out to other places such as Twitch/Reddit/etc to get that data too?

[@NC-Project]

​@@zlance1993 For KZbin thumbs, titles etc gathered from KZbin. But Reddit is a great source for understanding the community you want to make content for. 😃

[@manicgrant]

You gave me a lot to consider with my channel. Thank you!

[@NC-Project]

@@manicgrant 👊👊 Lets goooo!

[@retrofizz727]

@@NC-Project Also about your thumbnails, are you making them by yourself ? With photoshop ?

[@opulenthalo]

So true, I luckily grew this channel with 2k subs in my first month with the right timing of a new game "halo infinite" and shorted clips rather than longer video, but I'm looking to move into longer form content with playthroughs etc and I'm choosing to start a new account rather then change my whole content on this channel that works well in shorter video format

[@Juice-chan]

I was lucky that after 3 months of YT I got a smash hit of a video at 800 subs. That one alone gave me over 20000 Watch hours and more than 3000 subs. And got rocketed straight into the monetization.

[@Aliclashing]

Wow nice

[@Gaxko]

How many views did the video have

[@beyondformal1]

I'm hoping for some luck 😅😅

You need better thumbnails and titles that’s why pple are not clicking (I hope this helps, I have been watching a lot of videos about success on KZbin and titles and thumbnails are the most important part )

If you're reading this, keep pushing forward and stay hopeful! I'm a small KZbinr who just reached 77 subscribers, and I'm feeling more motivated than ever! You can do it! ❤❤🙏

[@Juice-chan]

By the way the whole video was very valuable. Lewis & JC share a lot of the ideas and points I do also share but have also gained experience that exceeds mine. I think I will have to keep improving my thumbnails. Especially since I made a major shift. I used to use fanarts in my thumb that are also on the horny side. It makes people click. But A sooner or later this spells trouble with artists and B people may click for the wrong reasons. Especially when that whole thumb looks like a click baity Roblox Thumbnail. The current style is much more professional but probably also boring and looks too close to what others are doing. So I am on a quest to find a unique style, that is legal and still conveys the right message.

[@Asakedia]

I don't comment on these types of videos too often but this one stuck out to me a lot. Even halfway through I am very satisfied with the information I have gained. I am glad this video is not too short either. One of the biggest issues I have is being an enemy of the FOMO technique. I despise it actually, even if it's very important to include it on KZbin. Thank you for making this video, it's truly outstanding!

[@dailyvibezz-821]

THANKS for your video !! for every small youtuber like me , if you are reading my comment, keep fighting we got this💪 I just reached 11 subscribers and I feel both motivated and little bit upset.. bcz its soooooo hard.. i just realized its soo hard to gain subscribers and views and stufff😭 WE GOT THIS !!!

[@dub-golf]

I hope your channel continues to grow! Almost at 1K subs here - Thank you guys!

Good tips for sure some things i need to work on for my channel, upto 250 but steadily rising aiming for 1000 by February, going to be hard but I keep pushing

[@The-Game-Adaptation-Newscast]

My niche is literally in the title of my channel. Video game movies and shows are about to blow up, but my channel is still very small. It's not growing at all even though it's in a hot niche given how good 2023 was for the genre. This video helped a lot! Thank you so much!

[@i_stories1738]

Thank you for this, was really informative and most importantly, level headed. I recently joined KZbin and watched multiple ‘how to grow your channel’ but this is the first one that was very normal and down to earth. Lewis came across as very informative and knowledgeable on what he was speaking without using sensationalised words. You and Lewis have earned a sub ❤️

[@BigYorga]

As a suggestion, I think you should change the size of your face in your thumbnails, it's scaled up too much which draws away from the rest of it. Also, the quality of some of the photos makes it seem much more amateur. I think that's because of the lighting when taking the photos. Sorry to judgemental but I'm trying to help you out :)

[@CayleeInChaos]

@@jackbaldwin2307 Hi! Thanks for the feedback. Noted on the scaling, I'll try adjusting a bit and see if that helps things. Quality looking amateur is probably because...I am! lol But yeah, I definitely need to figure out the lighting and camera situation. Thanks again!

[Thank you!!!] Thumbnails are critical, and definitely should be thought of early and alongside title. Man, I would love your advice because I have trouble with niche. I started my channel to share my passion modifying and tinkering with…well, everything. It's also an outlet for me to entertain and tell stories which is one of my favorite parts. Home Automation is definitely one of my passions, and this is what's taking off and netted me 500 subs in first month. Naturally, I want to grow so I can do all I enjoy , even the research and editing, full-time. And I want to keep my subscribers happy, so focusing more on this one topic. I'm committed to algo because I want to produce engaging content, but having trouble with moving away from what's working. Any advice if you have a moment?
