I hate to comment on KZbin but this man right here knows what he's talking about. I've been on KZbin for 6 years, built 1.3M sub channels (and others not as big). This is the FIRST time I see someone really talking about KZbin secrets. Love You Man.

[@RobertoBlake]

Appreciate you. I’m trying to get the real info out there

[@leanderrappmann7394]

1.3mil subs is mad. but change your thumbnails bro pls

[@Sammo-g9d]

How much did you pay for your subscriber's brah? You obviously bought them.

[@tessy28]

Either you bought your subs or you have absolutely no viewer loyalty at all because your views are atrocious for a channel of your size. 😮

[@MickeyAgyei]

@@Sammo-g9d If you are looking at their recent views, they used to get a lot of views. The channel is very informative. I just don't know what has gone wrong now. I literally watched that channel grow to a million during the pandemic.

[@LilyGazou]

I like small channels. KZbin is missing out because they are pushing the mega channels which I avoid.

[@Elzii]

If they push small channels, they will become mega and you will avoid them 🤷🏾‍♂️ If the channel is good, it’s gonna grow.

[@Miss_Nikkisan]

Agreed... there's more life and raw, real personality.

[@RIBBY_BOY]

You rock lily

[@LilyGazou]

@@Elzii I disagree. I have 5 channels now. The one with content that appeals to those of low IQ or greedy nature is doing the best. It has been an interesting experiment. I subscribe to hundreds of small channels and interact a lot on them. Big channels are too busy to have a community, too busy to answer questions.

[@melissathegamerchick]

Agreed

[@KartikGadaATOM]

I have to say that mine is failing. 370 videos and only 2700 subs. $CPM is going down not up. Then again, I can't be full time, only 5-7 hours/week, so maybe this was the best it could be. I am monetized, but that doesn't cover even the cost of the Envato Elements. I only continue because I like doing it. A few hundred people watch each video, 98% upvote ratio, about 10 comments praising my work. So I continue on.

[@SethSkoda]

Dude, there's nothing wrong with that. I do what I do with my channel because I enjoy doing it. It's been that way from day one. I feel like worrying too much about making my channel profitable instead of enjoying what I'm doing will be the thing that makes me fall. Keep at it, man.

[@Muhluri]

honestly speaking, your thumbnails are bad. I suggest you look at what the most successful finance yotubers do with their thumbnails. Try to copy 1 or 2 things they do and you might end up with more people watching your videos

[@RobertoBlake]

There is nothing wrong with a hobby channel and even MrBeast has to make 460 to break into 10,000 Subscribers…

[@BKNYHOOPS]

@@RobertoBlake Mr Beast has an amazing personality , I watch Mr Beast just for him. That's not going to work for everyone.

[@marleonetti7]

youtube is a type of pyramid scheme . thats why so many youtubers make videos about how to make money on youtube , because that is the ONLY content they can offer to get any views and subs of any significant number .

[@ELJefeReviews]

Roberto dropping facts as usual! KZbin is a difficult platform but hard work and dedication can take you far. Especially if you're open to learning and improving with each video you create. Not to mention being able to accept responsibility when a video fails. Blaming the algorithm gets you nowhere.

[@PurposedLensPhotoMedia]

I agree with you! I am also learning that the TOP creators out there aren't necessarily the BEST! Take Roberto for instance, he drops gems ALL THE TIME (by himself!) that are MUCH more in depth and practical (in my opinion), yet there are MANY other KZbinrs that are larger with more views. The size and view count of a channel does not dictate the VALUE of the PERSON however, the size of a channel and it's view count do dictate it's value to KZbin (The Company). I think this is an IMPORTANT distinction to make and grasp/learn. To be KZbin successful one MUST "play the game". To reach one's full potential, one just needs to be true to his or her purpose and capabilities. (which is what Roberto does on KZbin and OUTSIDE of KZbin.) Roberto teaches how to balance the two equally so that you can get results from both sides of the spectrum. Personally I find that my videos that "FAIL" are the one's I REALLY enjoy making! The one's that succeed are the one's I MUST make to be relevant on this platform. So I plan on making 1 video a month for me and the other for KZbin. Great comment!

I like how real you are in this video. Most bigger KZbinrs say you don’t need good video or audio just keep posting and eventually you’ll blow up and that couldn’t be further from the truth. Thank you for this!

[@DarthShadie]

I'm still small, channel-wise, but I am content with what I've got, as opposed to feeling worthless and chasing view like where I once was. What I've learnt makes me better and that matters to me. My crappy vids, some of them have good content but the vid is awful. I am revamping those old vids and that's working well. I'm also engaging a lot in the community tab. And that's the thing, my niche might keep me small right now, but engagement is amazing. THAT is worth so much to me. And after learning so much, I feel I am growing as a person, as a creator, regardless of the numbers.

[@RobertoBlake]

What would being the largest channel in your niche look like?

[@DarthShadie]

@@RobertoBlake I suppose it would look like having between 5K and 50K subscribers and being one of the go-to people for all things lore for that specific video game, a place for fun discussions and crazy theories where even more people are chiming in their theories and viewpoints on the story of the franchise. In my niche, 5K subs is good, the rare few who have more than 30K either do other games too or have been around much longer. The engagement would be exponentially higher than it already is (which is pretty amazing right now).

[@Farawaynow]

Great motivational video! As someone with over two decades of video production experience I feel like I am starting all over. KZbin, even if you know the technical side is hard but what I love it being able to produce as I like and finding useful adjustments that fit this crazy and difficult to understand platform. Not giving up. Never giving up.

You are right when I was making gaming videos it was struggling When I put memes in my videos it started getting traction When I started making memes on shorts and doing streams offering to play with viewers I noticed momentum building up I think I still got a long way ahead to really teake off but I'm on good track and having fun with it

You're so right about reaction videos. I generally detest react videos because it's just some personality who's watching video on TikTok and they just go "Wow!" or "No way!" and all they do is make a series of facial expression and funny remarks. I learn absolutely nothing new, and there's nothing to take away about the video other than it's trending on TikTok. I do enjoy watching "Expert reacts to" or "Professional reacts to" videos. Whenever I watch a lawyer react to Better Call Saul, or U.S. Air Force pilot reacts to Top Gun, or former mobster reacts to The Sopranos, I get to learn from their perspective how Hollywood portrays their profession. I get to learn from their personal experiences in the field and how accurate the characters and story are depicted and what did Hollywood get right or wrong. I also enjoy debunking videos. Not everything you see on TikTok is true or good advice. I love it when an auto mechanic rips apart bad advice on repairing cars, or when a chef has to explain that there's a better way to cook this meal, or when a tech expert has to point out that this video is just giving worthless advice and is trying to sell you a product.

I heard KZbin is moving to "pay to play." In other words, you now have to pay for KZbin to promote your videos. I think this a subject that will interest a lot of content creators. I also think your channel grew fast because you are a very gifted communicator.

Thanks for the compliment. As for the pay to play thing… Incorrect… the Promote feature is because every e-commerce brand is on KZbin and the previous system in Google Ads is too confusing for them. Similar to Instagram. Organic growth is still the norm. However it’s tripping up and confusing creators that it exist

@@RobertoBlake Thanks for the clarification. I appreciate it.

I have 5k subs (took me five years) but I tend to make 1k views per video. If I put 100% effort into my channel, I will have 10k subs in a couple more years! A play button is a future dream 😃
