I did this same challenge around May of this year 2023 and my account is old. Your advice is right on. My most successful beats were the ones I thought had the least potential, so make sure to upload the ones you are not confident in anyway. I got added to a bunch of playlist and I continue to see growth. Avoid checking the stats. I would suggest putting effort into your thumbnails but don't waste too much time on it and create a template. Best of luck to all getting into this. Don't give up! There's a market for everyone

[@cyfalii]

Well said

[@proxzi]

appreciate sharing the story 🙌🏻

[@aaron_d_henderson1984]

sounds like it was just luck for you since I know plenty of older channels that can't get past a handful of views unless they create burner new accounts

[@JAYSPLASHMUSIC]

facts this applies to beat making in general. cookup at least 1 beat a day for 5-10 years and its hard to not get better and almost guaranteed you will see results

[@jerrystackpaper]

Now imagine 10 beats a day for 10 years

[@JAYSPLASHMUSIC]

@@jerrystackpaper nah making 10 mid beats everyday isnt as productive as making 2-3 that you actually work on. Make at least 1 a day and actually put effort into it. Thas 365 decent beats vs 1200 mid beats it only takes 1 to get u a hit trust me

[@peraelawey]

@@JAYSPLASHMUSIC fax. not saying u shouldn't make 10 beats a day. If u can and you're fully happy with how they sound, rock with it. If u aren't fully happy tho, I think you shouldn't finish them in 10 minutes. That's how you develop your sound. If you're not doing it for the money you literally got all your life to figure out what your sound is. What you wanna see take shape and form in the real world. That's how genres develop. I loved trap growing up. I resonate with it. My first beats were trap beats. I deceived myself by thinking I couldn't do trap because the market is saturated with it. I wanted to be ''original.'' Boy was I wrong... All that to say, type beats are good because you're trying to replicate someone elses art and turn it to a business. If people resonate with it, there's a clear reason for it. Art shapes itself through time. We vibe and we advance. People holding back movements is a form of self-indulgence and bigotry that holds the world back. You realize how people can hold back a whole universe of possibilities. I equate this to politicians who share different values. It turned to an extreme last century and look what happened. We have to learn from our mistakes. The more people do art, the more possibilities and careers that are made. The more lives are impacted and the more missions there are to accomplish. It's awesome if that's what u wanna do for living, or a side hustle. If up-and-coming artists are willing to listen to your beats, or even purchase them you have to be mindful of the blessing that is. That life path might not be for you though. So don't beat up yourself if that's the case. Like anything in life, ask yourself why things aren't going the way you want them to go. Producers burn out for many different reasons. Find yours if you wanna make it into this niche area.

Great video bro. Being a KZbinr is pretty much like the best job ever. It's like running business, and you just need to offer your viewers what they need or want. Starting channel can be tough, but there are also tools like Famester which can massively help to kick start your channel and pretty much never worry about algorithm and constant changes.

[@jk-0music993]

for me it depends on what type beats u post if u post a lil baby type beat 100's of other more popular prods already do tht but like tdf type beats n others ppl be looking for them so it depends on what u bring to the prod game and also yes u have to be consistent

[@SirAuron777]

I made beats on another channel for 3 years(mainly 2 because I wasn’t as consistent the first year) and I never got a beat to 1k views without google ads. Also had around 300 subs, but every upload I had only got like 10-20 views and 1 like or 0, and barely any sales, shit was depressing. It’s all luck when it comes to the algorithm, of course you need skill to make a dope beat, but I’ve even heard shitty beats that have a lot of views and who don’t use good thumbnails,tags or titles . I also think KZbin shadow bans a lot of beat channels because we are trying to get viewers off of KZbin and to our beat store. KZbin is also over saturated af with beat channels and videos, so maybe the algorithm punishes channels that have: (free) future x drake type beat 2023, like so many channels use that title with different artists

[@OutputStudio]

I'm starting to schedule my "first" type of beats now, but I had this channel for a few years ago

[@ZICO_BEATS]

Very interesting experiment! I'm impressed that it worked so well for you. Since May I'm uploading 1 beat per week and still I don't have as many views as you do. So I think it's just the amount of beats I upload, but anyway I keep hustling. I mean all in all it isn't that bad and my channel grows.

[@ProdByAngus]

I would suggest putting atleast one more popular artist in the titles to get more clicks.

[@Elliott.Revell]

I post 1 beat a week and have gained just under 1k followers in about a year. Recently had my first commercial release let alone a constant stream indie artists buying beats. Then again i dont make the same music as everyone else.

[@damienharrison1]

I'm in my first week, got over 50 views on one of my beats in 2 days, doesn't sound like a lot but for me it's encouraging. Thanks for the great content, it's helping me a lot :)

[@beatsbyelvn]

From experience I can say that the real difficulty is not to explode the channel, but to maintain constant growth over time, my channel has had a rapid growth between 2020 and 2021, from 5000 subscribers I went to 50,000 in a short time, uploading only 2/3 beats a week (better quality than quantity) until the algorithm began to turn against each publication, Now I have such embarrassing results that I find it hard to believe that after 2 years of consistency this has happened. Unfortunately, a Type Beat channel has an average duration of 1/2 years what makes the difference is the construction of a system that supports the traffic that refers to the website

[@SMEbeats]

Did this same thing within 3 months my 2nd channel started popping actually got one of the beats to just shy of 100k views, everything is slow for a little bit and then boom one beat took off and everything else followed

[@cyfalii]

Yea bro ive seen you poppin off keep it up!

[@xoticbeats_]

I did this for 30 days but at this point my channel was not new anymore. I didn't sell any beats and I had two beats get to around 300 views. I did get much better at drums and producing though. Not sure what will work, but I will keep experimenting. It's been around 70 days of uploads (not every day) and I still haven't sold a beat. Idc though I trust the process

I arranged it the following way now: 1 R&B, 1 Afro R&B and 1 Afrobeat per week. Was thinking if I stick to this it won‘t mix up the algorithm too much. Or would you recommend doing 3 separate channels but rather uploading once a week only?

Q: I think the reason I don't get a lot of views is because I make a lot of different types of beats and don't really have a niche (r&b/trap/drill). Would it be effective if I categorize these three types of beats for 1 artist? So one r&b artist, one trap artist, one drill artist?

[@cyfalii]

Id personally just stick to 1 niche but yes id give them artists that may help

[@divine_architek]

Man I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have been posting for a long time now and the only beats I have that ever cracked 1k were all meme beats. The most I have ever gotten on an actual beat is around 500 views. Up until recently I have been posting a new beat up daily. Now I'm just keeping up with my 4 uploads per week. I have had this going on for over a year. I have seen growth but it is at a snails pace. I try to look for title tags to fit under a niche but it has been nye impossible to find something that fits with the music I am making and to be separate from all the other folks using the tags. This kills me. I have spent hours looking for tags and I cannot find any that work even if they are considered good by tubebuddy weighted. I dont stick to 1 genre but I try to stick more to emotion and feeling based music. For example a mellow summer type beat could encompass west coast, dancehall, reggaeton, and a few other particular styles. I thought that would work as its based more around evoking a feeling but I guess that isn't it. It's been excruciatingly difficult to find tags that work on KZbin. I'm lucky if a beat cracks 3 figures in terms of views let alone any type of engagement or sales. I don't know what to do.
