[@richfilms6307]

I have 30 subscribers. The video I posted took me 10 hours to make. It got 40 views. It was worth it. Im don't want to be a famous KZbinr. I want to make content that I care about and share it with others. That's why those 10 hours were worth it. Thanks for the advise Roberto

[@StillBloom]

Good for you, that what it should be all about! I feel the same way :) Good luck to you with your channel!

[@CharlaTV]

soo true i agree with you

[@fallenchaos1973]

I love your mindset and agree with you so much! Doing what you love makes everything all the more better!

[@richfilms6307]

+FallenChaos it really does.

[@gamerdan2310]

Yup, most videos take lots of hours to make...some get a few hundred views while others maybe only a dozen.

[@bensnow4046]

Does anyone else just randomly look at other people's channels while scrolling endlessly through the comments?

[@Ohitskaatherine]

all the time!

[@jboytoto]

Computerheadguy yup. Just looked at urs 😂

[@ThomasTheTrucker]

Same

[@BrookieMarieTV]

I agree 100% with the not comparing yourself to "Big KZbinrs". Once it stopped doing that I enjoyed everything so much more!! Now I'm so excited/grateful about my 75 subscribers. And because of that I've seen a HUGE difference within my videos. If anyones doubtful just keep your eye on the prize!!

[@BrookieMarieTV]

Lol yess its getting there. Thank you soooo much !!

[@JustChillMyDog]

BrookieMarieTV well said dear 😊👌👌

[@brensocial]

Very true!!! I am at 89 and don't even care, I am just having fun!

[@Lifewithlove]

Same here! Happy for you!

[@thechampagnerene]

Yasss makeup tutorials! I've been looking for new smaller youtubers to watch! Subbed!

[@clayfeathers]

Comparing myself to others is what has kept me from doing KZbin. You are right! Thanks for this.

[@Tiffystyles]

This was exactly what I did before deciding to start my KZbin channel a month ago. Just do it !!!

[@myhumbleapothecary8284]

Tip 10: wanting to give up/ worrying about numbers. Patience is the hardest thing (for me) to appreciate and embrace. Amazing video

@@JHKCreations by the way, how long going to wait for thousands views.

[@BystanderPs]

Yh it's true

[@PJDoesIt]

Now, KZbin requires 10,000 views before you can monetize. It took me about 5 months to hit that. I actually think that is a good idea. Makes you work harder and smarter. Thanks for your tips.

[@skeletaltheory7551]

:O How did you get that many views so fast?!

[@erikamane9606]

I have been on youtube for 8 month, and I still only have 83 subscribers. And it is discouraging... but this video helped me to not give up! Thank you!

[@ChrisParayno]

Agrees

[@CalliopeFprincessice]

yall have way more then i do i have 16 subscribers

[@laurenspassionx]

Do not give up. Focus on consistency. Looking at your thumbnail alone says you have potential. That HIGHLIGHT HUNNNYYYY. XO

My friend was on KZbin for 4 years, and she only has 23 subs.

thank you!!

[@bigstevepsu]

I’m watching this on my parents anniversary, May 16, 2019 sitting at 89 and can’t wait to come back to this post a year from now and see where I’m at! If you’re a small KZbinr watching this, stay patient and keep grinding, you’ll get there eventually 👌🏼

You should do a video on how you did it.

Pedro Amaral real

[@jw7376]

That's awesome!!

[@Rubrickmusic]

Cool video, is hard not to get discouraged when you work so hard on your videos and then the views are kind of low, but this video inspires me to keep going! Thanks man

[@RobertoBlake]

+Rubrick which is why I tell people to ignore the numbers

[@Rubrickmusic]

yeah I guess it's not very "healthy" to focus on them, I'll try not to haha thanks for replying man!

[@LemonExpert209]

that's such a massive coincidence, I literally just talked about how small tubers get discouraged by numbers :0

[@MaureenHope]

Rubrick exactly.

[@SHOCKWAVE18Gaming]

Rubrick yea I definitely feel you I work 40 to 50 hours a week as a boss an still put out content daily or try too an got low subs. Never once promoted my channel anywhere or click baited. I appreciate an try help people who put in effort an u don't even got to be fancy about it. Plan on getting bigger an making this something special

[@liliandraw5751]

I feel like a lot of people (including myself) expect growing a KZbin channel to be easy, especially since every day most of us watch 'big subscribers' videos and I think we're kinda used to seeing the big numbers. I was really discouraged a few months ago when my channel wasn't growing as fast as I had expected. So just a little advice to anyone that stumbles upon this comment; try to have low expectations. xD Idk, this might not work for everyone, but It's how I get through it whenever working really long on a video, which ends up getting less views than I would hope.

[@thelilo13]

i just checked you youtube channel : your art is BOMB :-O

[@liliandraw5751]

Thanks!!

[@RealEverydayEnglish]

I started creating content in September to help people improve their English, being a language learner myself, I had an idea how to create content in a different way to the usual stuff on KZbin. This week I went over 200 subs. So happy with that!! That means that 200 people at least have improved their English because of my videos!😊😊😊 Thanks for the video man !!

[@reverser3512]

I love how this is mostly a story about making good videos and not like "OH U GOTTA DO COLLABS LOWL"

[@BertrandVanderBerg]

Reverser absolutely. Makes sense this way.

[@PlanetMojo]

I really love your 'nobody owes you anything' attitude. Hard work is the key to success.

[@BhartiPuri]

So true of what you have said regarding not comparing yourself to big time KZbinrs. That can really mess up the mind while trying to create content.

[@jboytoto]

Bharti Puri yup

[@baileyridings]

That's so true.

[@FlatRateMechanic]

Got my DIY auto repair channel up to 1600 and going strong. Took about 7 months. Thanks for all your help

[@GoHerping]

I just hit 1k subscribers! Using your videos the past couple months gave me so much info. I definitely have you to thank to helping me get from being stuck at a couple hundred to 1000 so quickly.

[@GoHerping]

Thats exactly what I had been thinking. I remember I was stuck on 41 subscribers for about 2 years... but then the more content I made and the more active in the community I was, it slowly went up. As you progress, the faster you grow. For example, it took years for me to hit 100. Then, I hit 200 which still took about half a year. Then I hit 300 which was a little faster, then 500 which was even faster, and so on. So the more subs you have, the faster you grow apperently lol. So I recommend keeping at it. (Roberto has some other vids on why youtubers often fail that I watched and helped me)

[@eternailsm]

congratulation and nice motivation you throw on your comment I like reptiles especially geckos i'll like and subscribe : keep it up GoHerping !

[@TravelTipsForNepal]

On my 65th birthday, I decided to start working our KZbin channel. That was in August and I'm really enjoying it. I'm watching a lot of these videos and my manager is learning so fast. The videos are still a bit rough and we got our first unlike, behind us. I just had to get over my 'grandma waddle' and decide that I have a valuable message to provide. Thanks, Roberto, you did it again!

[@dearsyahirah1724]

Useful infos for small youtubers, thx for helping and motivating us all! Months ago i used a website to get 50+ subscribers, it worked but sadly only for a moment until i decided to unsubscribe the channels that i was ordered to. now im back with my 15 subscribers and im still comparing it with my friends they have more subscribers but it seems like most of them gave up on KZbin. i guess my work is worth 40 views each

[@thejewniverse9790]

Thanks so much Roberto for the great advice! I wanted to grow on youtube super fast but you reminded me everything requires time and patience! I know i will grow on youtube and i just got to keep grinding. Everybody reading this, you are AWESOME and you CAN do it!!

I feel like I accomplished something with just 20 subs. Remember, KZbin is only worth it if you Don't feel as if it's a job instead of a fun hobby. It CAN be a job, but if it doesn't feel right, changing your content or taking a break is a good idea.

[@The_Zan_Man]

I was feeling a bit down after a talk with my husband and where my channel is heading. I typed in “How to grow your channel” and came across your video. It made me feel better and reminded me that it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. It’ll take longer and as long as I keep going it will work. Thanks for your support.

[@SuperEnthused]

Thank you for this information and advice!! I’m exploring more of KZbin’s tools and putting in the work to learn more about how it all works.

[@baileyridings]

Same here!

[@jwolfgang2026]

Watched a video previously about learning about analytics. That you for repeating about thinking about how many people 20-100viewers are. Made me feel a lot better knowing that actually that many people have watched my videos.

[@LegendSkull367]

My problem used to be cringey videos. Then I learned how to edit and my videos are pretty nice.

[@DoggyAjax]

LegendSkull27 I came across that problem as well to be honest your videos are pretty decent

[@GCGFilmsYT]

#9 is EXACTLY on point. The Big Guys can tag their own names where the smaller creator has to be more thoughtful and deliberate. What they’re doing now is not what allowed them to grow and the conditions they did it in have now changed. The concept is what to learn and then try to spot the current method that allows growth.

[@Tankins]

Thank you for all the inspiration. You're the reason I started to upload in 2017 man. I guarantee Everyone here appreciates your advice. :)

I just started and I got a message on Facebook from a Nigerian girl saying I encourage her because of my acne and I was so 😀 happy. I touched a soul I’m glad with my small subscribers

[@TeiwazTV]

12:15 - Thanks man, I've been a little discouraged but you're absolutely right. I really enjoy making my videos for KZbin and that's what should matter. I'm happy with what I'm doing. I'm getting better and better every video and learning new ways to make them better! Thanks for the encouragement!

[@RobertoBlake]

People have forgotten that they don’t need likes or hearts or subs as encouragement to do something they like. I’m worried people won’t get out of bed unless they get 50 comments on Instagram...

[@TeiwazTV]

HAH! Got you there! I don't have Instagram! 😝 But I get what you're saying, people put too much emphasis on the numbers. I'm enjoying what I'm doing here on KZbin and that's what matters. It's just a nice bonus when others get some enjoyment out of it as well.

[@BladeLaVigne]

Thanks for the advice Roberto! As a small KZbinr myself, I love these videos.

[@RobertoBlake]

Awesome, what was the most helpful tip?

[@sehalshams]

+Roberto Blake Replying to the comments could be a tip ;)

[@RobertoBlake]

+S3hal it's kinda a given but also a personal choice. Comments are time consuming and to be honest I lose a crap ton of money for all the time I do spend months in the comment section. Like a few grand based on things I could do with that time that make actually money. So I don't judge people who ignore their comments. The day I have a kid you'll likely see me practically vanish from the comment section. I know you guys like feeling acknowledged by people you watch or subscribe to but their are other things in their life and other people that are and should be their priority. So again I don't judge any creators that don't engage since we all have a right to decide how we spend our limited time.

I spent a lot of effort and time editing videos and the nobody is watching it except my family of course! I am thinking maybe KZbin is not sharing my videos to Public? Hmmm... just thinking. But I don't care, I will still continue making videos to learn and improve. Maybe when time comes that KZbin share my videos to Public then I would be a professional video editor!!

[@MaNuLaToRVaDeR]

you have 10 subscribers now :-) your welcome

[@MeOnMyPhoneGaming]

11 ha

[@KylesFunPlay]

haha.. thanks

[@MaNuLaToRSMedia]

12 i say 12

[@manulatorsmota5883]

13 sounds better though

[@AutismRockzFamily]

I want to thank you. I'm a autism mom that started my channel with the idea to help other families lower cost on items we use for our autism kiddos and share what we do at home hoping to help. I saw others that started at same time fly by me and I was discouraged. I like how simple, plain and to tree point you are. So much info thrown our way its easy to get confused.

[@jon-bmc5557]

I have a KZbin channel and I only have 2 subscribers 😃 and I'm happy 💕.

[@jon-bmc5557]

Faye Connie I might be young but I know what I speak about when I speak. thanks for saying that by the way and I have three subscribers now😊.

ive built my fan base alot more after watching this video!

[@caseyxje]

I find these tips super helpful since I have been doing KZbin for quite a while but I just had a couple months break and I'm so looking forward to getting back into KZbin !!

[@EpicAdamMotovlogs]

I’ve been vlogging for about 2 years & I’ve seen people overtake me in subs who I don’t think are as good as me. It used bother me but then I realised it’s because I don’t make videos for the people that watch my genre. Now I make videos for me & im loving it.

[@CMOVlogs]

great video buddy

[@naturallyteish9155]

Hopefully this video can help me build my channel.

Love your content. I’m a small KZbinr and this is was very helpful and encouraging. Impressed. Seriously.

[@billiboom3654]

The most genuine KZbin growth video I have watched so far. Thanks Blake.

[@simple_naildesigns]

billi boom I agree! As a new KZbinr, Roberto is the one I continue to watch for valuable information on KZbin.

[@twitchwolfsyz512]

"It's only 100$" LOL😂

[@geekseo6419]

Thank you so much for this Roberto! love your videos this helped me reach out to more of my clients with my current SEO company that i run. I help to rank local business currently but am thinking about expanding!

[@noemitoro1097]

i only have 22 subscribers but its okay

[@mr.v310]

Noemi Toro I have zero subscribers and that's not okay

[@GinAmber]

great video. i have 14k and sometimes i have slow days and i feel to give up and still watching Roberto to get inspired 😃😆

[@DancingWithTim]

Hello Gin. Never give up!! You received so many subs in such a short period of time.. How did you do that?? Building a channel is so time consuming and slow.. What's your secret?? :) Tim

[@moraps9014]

Gin Amber i have 230 im thankfull

[@FrenchieFunFinds]

Gin Amber hi! Congrats on 16k! I'm still small at almost 600...don't ever give up! I just subbed you, your channel is similar to my content..all things beauty and fun!! Good luck!! 🤗

[@jumanian7346]

I have 1 subscriber but I'm extremely new so I'm not expecting a lot

[@andersreadssometimes2170]

not anymore I've subbed

[@appetite4chic878]

#6 was a great perspective of looking at views. I do still get butterflies from speaking in front of 20 people. These are great tips. I appreciate your content 👌🏾

[@mynameisjisaac]

Thank you Roberto.. really needed to hear this.

[@KingHedgehogYT]

I cannot even imagine what it'd be like to get an average of a hundred views on my videos, I have an average of like 10 XD

[@MediocreLPC]

I have an average of 20. I'd bite off my left pinky toe if I got 100 views a vid

[@TCGdota]

just keep on doing what you doing man! never give up!

[@leaschmitt2496]

I just started KZbin 2 months ago, and something that doesn't really get's sed in al of those videos is what grew my channel the most (in my own opinion). And that something is: do something that not Many people do, it sounds simple right? But think About it, you start out wich means you havent got the quality videos that people have from experience. So for example, you Could do cs:go videos but there are already thousends of people making those and They are probably of better quality. But you Could also do videos of smaller (less known/popular) games and get (in comparasing) a lot more vieuws. After a while when you have grown a steady base of people watching you can still slowly switch to Csgo but just to make your channel grow iTS probably better to do videos About something that is less competitive. For example, on my other channel (where i post my videos) i make videos About my pet button quail. Of course i Could just do pet videos but there is already a lot of people doing that. And now i get About 50 vieuws each day and i stand on top of the Search for button quail, just behind a video that has 50000 vieuws (i have About 200/video) even with the crappy quality of my sound and video. So that just shows that it is important...

[@ShanaLeigh]

Preach.

[@GOD-fs1kh]

me too

[@bubztealover]

You have a great way of explaining things- you could be a great college professor haha

[@RobertoBlake]

+bubztealover lol yeah with the problem being I make more money being an online educator. One day I will Hire away young talent from academia to launch education channels and online courses that will directly compete with their old campus jobs and they will make 10x and teach 1000x more people... that's the real goal of Create Awesome Media as a company.

[@LadyLenachannel]

That's an AWESOME idea.

[@jmixOff]

this kind of content motivates other vlogger and giving a huge strength and self confidence to us ..

[@murphysworld2222]

Wow brilliant video.I've managed to get 19 subscribers in just under a week.You're video has given me a bit more confidence.I'm delighted I have 19 but I'll be honest its great nipping out with my camera and filming.

[@shardaesheis1081]

Same thing with me! I posted 3 videos about 2 weeks ago and got 12 subs! I was stuck with 3 subs for yearsssss but that’s only because I wasn’t posting content, but I def see the difference when I improved my thumbnails and video content.

[@theResidentPsychopath]

I dream of 1k subs lol. It is hard not to focus and refresh those numbers. I almost meet the 4,000 hour threshold that YT recently implemented to demonetize me but subs seem like an impossibility at my level.

[@FixCBitC]

theResidentPsychopath me too! I am almost at that magic number!!! Stay on your grind🙌🙌

[@CherryRose]

Subscribed 😊😊

[@CherryRose]

@@FixCBitC subscribed 😊😊

[@userrshrem]

u could prolly grow if all ur videos werent just walk throughs. if u like playing games maybe make gaming videos in a different kinda genre

[@Alamatvonline]

@@CherryRose and me , await yo 2

[@CamGeers]

Everyone is commenting about how they only have this amount of subscribers or only get this many views per video! STOP COMPLAINING AND PRACTICE EDITING, TALKING TO THE CAMERA AND EVEN RESEARCH VIDEOS YOU SHOULD DO!

[@RobertoBlake]

+Crea Cam boom

[@MyEClassinBytes]

After almost 5 years, this video still holds true. And I still get so much value from this. Thanks for making this video! :)

[@bluecheckmiya]

the best way to do collabs are actually to do them with people around your subscriber range you grow more from that tbh

[@COMPUTERHOW]

Absolutely Right

[@COMPUTERHOW]

B.J.T That's the spirit

[@po0mfy-kun566]

tru dat

[@leaschmitt2496]

Most small channels are also afraid to ask bigger channels for a collab even If those bigger channels would be glad to do a collab If you asked...

[@RobertoBlake]

This is true

[@seedtobaobab5146]

I'm just starting out and only have 2 videos so far. They both got above 50 views but i only have 3 subs. I got a drone to shoot arial footage and like some of the comments here, i want to create quality work. I don't want to just make a ton of videos if they're garbage. I just hope that all these hours of editing and going out of my way to find good footage and create interesting vids dont go to waste. I want to know if people like my content or what i could do to make it better. So thank you, i know now that i have to wait and keep aiming for better videos and it will pay off eventually.

[@RobertoBlake]

Views don't determine the value of that time. Your skill and acquired abilities do. Learn that lesson fast...

[@MillsUE]

Thanks Roberto! I came across your Channel yesterday and you're already blessing my life. My KZbin channel is quite new and you've really helped me to know what to do next and things to expect. Thanks for the encouragement! You're the man!

[@bestofthetop585]

It’s something I’m working out up to this day. I’m using my iphone 5s at the moment and still on the process of making much better content than my previous ones. Thank you for the advice ... One thing I’d say to keep your youtube channel cool ... Keep being “You” :)

Idk if I'm growing slowly, or if I'm impatient, or both. Lol I've seen people gain subscribers so quickly! How is that happening?!?!

[@RobertoBlake]

+Andrea Joy it doesn't matter, you may as well say... "everyone else got married... why can't I find someone?" Your experience is your experience, you have to stop comparing...

[@AJ4Jesus7]

[@WegaFitness]

Stop comparing is the best advice ever:) Thanks

[@Toxin_Shadow]

I watch other youtubers & they inspire me to work on KZbin but the thing is it's hard to upload because you want to but at the same time you can't.

[@donviticus6751]

I understand the feeling. As a college student I can tell you doing KZbin and keeping up with assignments and quizzes is certainly difficult. But I say go for it. If you have that inner calling. That inner fire to make videos. Then do it. You won't regret it. I answered the calling and I enjoy it.
