[@Don-MOHNKE]

Ya know, over the years i've been adding other types of gaming content to my channel since it first started. Ranging from Horror Let's Plays, to funny walkthroughs and often interesting indie horror games. Now just watching this on your channel, the tips and help definitely open a new light. Started from 0 subs in 2019 and went up to 779 right now to this day. Watch time and views aside, i'm happy to enjoy a hobby that makes me feel good and helps build an audience for chill watching. For all the creators that are still working hard since their day 1 and are struggling: Keep going, do not give up. You can do it.

[@LuketheGamerDuke]

I started a gameplay analytics channel in the ladder of 2023 after failing to find a job from getting laid off at the end of 2022. I’ve gotten more traction than I ever thought possible in 3 short months. It’s a grind! From learning the software, to writing scripts, to the actual gameplay, voice recording, to actually creating the video. But it’s also incredibly rewarding. Crafting some kind of story progression I think plays is a major part, but also don’t be afraid to borrow an idea from a bigger channel and put your own spin, ideas, or personality behind it. Keep up it everyone!

[@videoaddict3-gmr]

that’s awesome!! i hope the your yt career keeps growing :)

[@ArizonaLemon-ts5lf]

I've watched many videos that bring mostly updates, News, or brand new features in games. I can pretty much say 2:25 is a whole changer if you want to start a KZbin channel. Thank you for mentioning that Dan keep up the good work and never stop creating these videos that the audience can enjoy.

[@Rabellaka.]

I’m a Simmer, and challenges are definitely what people want to watch. This includes both gameplay and building. First Looks for new content are my most popular videos, but those only happen once every 1-3 months. Focusing on the Sims has definitely helped my channel, but I still need to keep improving titles and thumbnails, as well as my editing skills. A camera might help too, but I’m not ready for that yet.

[@tiannagames]

I’m also a Sims KZbinr! So yeah I get what you mean

[@Beistranhu]

Key change I learned this year: 10-video series 👉 1 video compilation \/ Instead of 10 videos showing 10 different tasks in detail, people are really more into 1 video with the 10 tasks shown quicky 😊

[@Talxicity]

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZbin channel a few years ago about The MetaVerse. Now I have 251 subs and > 61 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[@MkiMuankimi96]

Let help one another dear all friends

[@Azunera]

Thank you. Your video confirmed a lot of what I suspected when it came to gaming channels and what does/doesn't work in the last few months. I first started my channel with the belief that highlights from livestreams would be better received than pure no commentary gameplay because of the mentality that no one would watch if they couldn't see my face or hear me constantly talking. Those videos received almost zero attention and it nearly ended my desire to upload to YT. In the past year I revamped the channel to focus purely on no commentary gameplay videos, and to my surprise they were better received than I ever thought was possible. Going from 4 views in a Subnautica highlights video that had been up for a year to 200 in an average Starship Troopers gameplay video in a week was the wake up call I needed. One thing I do want to start working towards is making longer videos (I also thought no one would want to watch a 1 hour video compared to 30-45 minutes) but I'll save them for the continuous games. Something I might consider doing, though I am unsure if I should since it feels like it would make the series redundant, is compiling them into one long video. Maybe I do the long video alongside the series so viewers can choose.

[@Lady_Elva]

I've been on youtube since 2011 and I'm a gaming channel and watching this has taught me to think a lot differently. Thank you for helping us tiny channels out.

[@vidIQ]

[@TheDailyDoseOfRust]

i find it hard to make good content for gaming.

[@RandomandEngineering]

I started my youtube channel 3 years ago, I uploaded some software content and then left it. After 3 years, I opened a youtube studio and saw a bunch of videos that got me 1.3 hours of watch time. I was shocked! Now I started again with more versatile content about gaming. Now I am feeling that it I can make it. INSHALLAH.

[@4FramesPerSecond]

Thats our goal! We technically started in 2023, but we have learned from every mistake and are consistently growing! I know it sounds silly, as even my fiance laughed at me, but my goal is 1 million subs this year!!! Good luck to all, and I'm so excited for 2024.

[@Cheeselewd]

thank you! hope success to everyone and you!

[@Auxiliary_Neal]

That’s a good BHAG (big hairy audacious goal) Personally my goal is to maintain my consistent, upward momentum and just be monetized by the end of the year.

[@4FramesPerSecond]

@Why_Not232 I dream big, and I work for it. If I'm not personally shooting for the absolute pinnacle, then why put all that effort into it. I don't want to say "this year will be capped here or there". I guess I am still doing that with 1 million, but I set that ceiling so high! We are gonna do it. That's how my mind works :) Good luck on your goals!!!

I agree.. vid IQ’s tips have helped me grow my channel.. and their SEO tool. I’ve seen view spikes over night and over a few days!

[@Heyarvy]

HOW?????? Did you have to actually pay for vidIQ to actually help??

[@Heyarvy]

@Grayson14Woodss Don’t waste your time or your space on your PC. It’s a scam. The only way it works is if you spend money. Literally did nothing for my channel the entire time I used it. Got more subs and views when I got rid of it

[@Blazey826]

A tip that I've found that could work pretty well, is when choosing what games to play on your channel try to find games that have similar audiences. For example, a game like fortnite might have an audience that also enjoys viewing rocket league content. Therefore, your audience won't be changing every few weeks and you're able to start growing a real fanbase.

[@exlonic]

I've been in the gaming challenge niche for over half a year now, and while it's not nearly as rewarding as I thought it would be there is defiantly value within it. I recently changed my strategy for my videos to go into more detail about the challenge itself (essentially changing the storytelling) so I'll have to wait and see how that goes. But I definitely have made many mistakes and standing out is really hard because I still stuck at titles and thumbnails even after over a year of practice; my CTR has always been lower then my friends so I blame that (if I had money I'd hire someone 😅). My point is, with gaming channels it can be a long and tedious process, but if you enjoy it at the end of the day even if you don't make it, the skills will help with your day to day life. Although maybe don't commit to always making videos thing as much as I have... (shout out to literally recording footage while I write this)

[@CoDinksYT]

What I found to be EXTREMELY helpful is shorts. Although, I'm still trying to grow, I was where you are at and then I started incorporating shorts to my channel. Take highlights from your videos and post them!

[@exlonic]

@@CoDinksYT I tried shorts for a bit but never like that, I’ll look into it!

[@sleepy.games91]

fellow small gaming channels, we've all got to just stick with it and TRUST THE PROCESS

[@Rosebud_official]

Please keep doing these types of gaming videos. I'm primarily a Sims channel, and its so hard to break into the search results, it seems like other social media gives me the most traffic to my channel rather than KZbin.

[@TheLordPanic]

I’ll give you a tip.. I did this for a while but I dropped it because I wanted to focus on one thing. I used Instagram to farm followers (basically get followers as it’s much easier to get followers than subs for some reason). Anyways, when I’d get followers via IG, I’d DM them thanking them for their follow, have a conversation then they’ll eventually sub to my channel provided they like my videos. Hope that helps.

[@EccentricDrDino]

My friend and I (14 yrs) are creating a channel. So excited to see where this will go.

[@AliraRielle]

Well, this is timely and encouraging! I just started a Modded Minecraft series in which I decided to go with telling the story, first-person, of the sole survivor of a crashed space exploration vessel. I just started it a few weeks ago. Thank you so much for your content and help for us beginners! :)

[@Mreditsz8011]

Rules/tips to become successful: 1: give your 100 percent on everything editing voiceover and uploading 2: never copy other content it’s a cheap way to steal content and you don’t get yt money 3: work with fun

[@1Cryptid]

as a rising gaming channel, i really appreciate this video! i watch the majority of y'all's content but this one seems to be more promising since it reaches out to my genre of content personally. the video truly shows that you don't need a huge budget and a crazy topic or genre of video to get big, you just need time, effort, patience, and understanding of the youtube algorithm (factors i'm pretty confident in thanks to your guys' content. thank you for making this video!

[@TheLordPanic]

Yeah I agree with you.. but there’s another thing… and you’re right that it’s definitely about patience. What I found is that growing KZbin is the hardest amongst the rest of the social media. I was doing research about growth and found that.. I’m sure you’ll find the same. Therefore, you can use other social media to farm subs when you follows. Leave no method unturned unless it sways your focus.

[@ThatKidFireCat]

Tip: one of the easiest ways to create a successful channel is to do tutorials on the exact topic of this video, how to start a KZbin career. My Dad said he was willing to help me with a KZbin channel and this is the perfect content I needed to start a channel. I'm currently at 61 subscribers but I'm aiming to get more and this video will help a lot. (Thanks vidIQ!!!)

[@uchgamerx]

Watch is definitely my biggest takeaway from 2023. I started the year sitting at 21 subs with about 50 watch hours. I put in the work (consistent uploads, crafting video ideas, titles, thumbnails...). But once I started making videos longer than 7 minutes, I noticed that I was getting more watch time hours. Now, I am fully monetized. Thanks vidIQ 🙏

[@NotNovaKai]

@uchgamerx what do you use to edit and most importantly make thumbnails? I'm trying to become a full time content creator so this would really help out!

[@uchgamerx]

@@NotNovaKai I use pixlr and canva. They're both free to use

[@T_L_H_G]

I love gaming and my two cats. These two are basically where I spend most of my time outside of work. I always wanted to make my own channel and start uploading videos because I feel like positive experiences are more enjoyable when shared with others. Your videos has encouraged me to finally make a channel and upload my first video!

[@DiegoHernandez-sp8jv]

[@Electr0Doggo]

I like the reason of why I watch and make No Commentary Gameplay videos. I play those videos in the background, while I eat, while I do chores etc.

[@Azkhalon]

Great stuff in this video! I've spent almost three years on KZbin creating Let's Plays. I decided even before watching this video to step out of my comfort zone in 2024 and make some different type of gaming videos. One thing I've noticed is that some of my gaming buddies have been doing well with videos where they do rankings or talk about games they like for different consoles. Talking about their favorite gaming things has benefited their channels a lot. I plan to make more of those type of videos more in 2024! I recently posted a video about 8 games that should be remade in 2024, and it was one of my favorite videos to produce. It took me two months of editing off and on, but in the end I was super proud of it!

[@warmaniac989]

That VERY last point you made makes ABSOLUTE SENSE for videos I’ve been seeing pop up as outliers in my niche and helps clear things up. I make content around splatoon, and I’ve been noticing some outlier videos that are just gameplay of the casual game mode for hours on end at most. And while the videos themselves have poor engagement ratings due to having 3 or so comments tops! They are still amassing more than 10k views each

My friend and I started our channel last year being inspired by our favorite content creators and work everyday on improving our content with trial and error. Even though growing a channel is difficult, but its not impossible. We learn everyday on making better videos and we just hit 500 subs, to some people its not a lot of subs but to us it is, it doesn't stop us from making content since 500 people actually like our videos. Its shows my friend and I have a chance to becomes successful on our channel. If our favorite content creators can do it, than so can we. KEEP UP THE GRIND FELLOW CONTENT CREATORS!

[@DriftedPlays]

One thing I learned about my KZbin channel in 2023 is I’ve got a very small community. Don’t get me wrong, I love making videos for the subscribers I have, but I know I want to expand my audience. Sure, gaining more subscribers is a goal, but if I don’t have a strong community surrounded around my channel/content, growth doesn’t matter as much.

[@Torr3s12]

Happy new year! I followed your tips and my ctr jumped from 0.8 to 4.3% in a day and won +15 subs.

[@vidIQ]

Great job! Keep growing!

[@retrobansss]

I feel like I figured out a formula thanks to your video. Make a let's play and add my own story/flare to it. Then after the series is done, I'll drop one huge video of all the episodes combined together. Then I'll post a 20+ minute long review of said game if I finished it. Then I'll repeat the cycle and make sure to diversify my games by sticking to a broad genre. For example, I would probably stick to action games. Let me know if I can improve this in anyway!

[@lordspejson8871]

This video is honestly so helping for the new creators! Even me im planning to start new channels but the thing i had in mind that many new creators dont is ima say a different opinion than they are and this prob is the best tip to ever give, its essentially an easier to understand the term "being different". Also vidiq may i ask, do small new channels get a boost? Many of my creator friends been saying that.

[@Charziken]

It's tough to create high quality content sometimes when you're all on your own, especially when also working full time. Initially I had done let's plays, but not of standard games. Games ran through google translate. Eventually I found a niche that I've enjoyed working on; "First looks" and what I like to call "Under the Radar". Mini essays on games that have either flown under the radar since they came out, or had a significant impact on my life. I'm still tiny, but I've seen growth and improvement over the past 8 months

People have been loving it and I'm glad that it's now exponentially growing too as I'm working on the next video.

One of the biggest struggles with starting a gaming channel is budget. Gaming channels require more initial investment because you need a mic, a good computer, good monitor, maybe a good webcam, etc.

[@blznks]

0:58 This is wrong you need one game to set a proper niche, if people mostly watch you play one game and you automatically switch to another later on in your “gaming career” people are gonna be like wtf and your gonna see your channel start to dissipate unless your actually good at that second game and unless your like TheRadBrad who makes story walk throughs

I just discovered that I might not grow much in terms of followers because I don't talk in my videos. However, I don't mind it as I enjoy creating content anyway, and having fun is all that matters to me. Despite my severe anxiety and dislike for my accent, I still upload videos of me playing games, doing difficulty runs, Speedruns, Fightcade Multiplayer, achievement hunting or general walkthroughs. It's important to me to continue sharing my passion with others, no matter the challenges I may face along the way. One takeaway I will focus on is editing. I do not know much about it, but I will learn and hopefully that can be my filler for talking. Thank you for uploading this vid it was extremely informative.

Start a gaming channel in 2024. And then a ps4 controller in the thumbnail. I like that 😂

I have been relying on Minecraft a lot in the last month. I tried to play Fortnite last week, but it didn’t bring in many people, and also I got copyright claims from those. I tried Roblox today, and that did pretty well. I just need to know a lot more games than just a few. Another thing is: which game do I need to play next?

Thank you so much for this video!

Now, I am a small channel that started early last year. I started with Roblox content but i didn't get much views. But here is the thing.When I got 1 view,it felt like a trillion so I posted more. It didn't really bother me that there wasn't much views and it still dosen't. But here is a VERY important thing:Make a video that YOU would want to watch because if you don't like your content,why are you doing it? Another thing is that if your older viewers don't watch anymore,post something that they would like! And sure,it may take a while,but you will feel great! :)

I recently noticed how optimizing for long form videos that can hold decent retention (shii even 10% till the outro) is pretty damn amazing. It's very nice to see my belief of focusing on watch hours backed up in this video!

I make vids as a hobby really. My friends tell me to follow trends and stuff but id just prefer recording a session with the bois, edit it, upload. Sometimes i upload back to back. Sometimes i take a month and just play to play, not to make content. I enjoy editing and everything, so the vids are just for me and the friends really.

We're all pretty much in the same boat, us viewers. Thanks for the video. I'm feeling cautiously optimistic about my own channel.

[@sumstopidshet5045]

I was waiting for this video

KZbin has been a dream career since I was 15. I'm 25 now and am finally taking a real dig at it. I haven't released anything new yet, but i am stockpiling some new stuff! I hope the algorithm is kind to me 😭.

I tried these but still my success rate is slow on youtube well some

[@GReimerGaming]

I’ve been making SuperCuts of my series for a while now and they usually do alright for my channel. I manually place the ad spots so it’s less ads than watching the series in a playlist. So it offers viewers a binge worthy 12 hour video that doesn’t interrupt them with as many ads.

[@Speedtuttle]

I hope my channel does good someday

[@Theevilheman]

@@Speedtuttle Me too dude good luck you'll get there

[@MetalGear_Markie]

We got you 👍

I've seen a bunch of similar videos and I'm actually really impressed with the advice. I know there isn't just some special formula to 'win' KZbin, but there are definitely hundreds of small factors that make a huge difference (Many SEO Elements, Pacing, Digestibility, Interest, Pacing, etc etc)
