Growing a YouTube channel is hard, especially in the beginning because you really have no idea what you're doing.
But after you get some traction I think it's actually the easiest channel to grow.
Because it mostly rewards good videos, the only trick is what are good videos?
Thumbnails, titles and intros/hooks all play a major role.
But only if the content delivers on those promises.
Otherwise it's just click bait.
Here are some recent stats on my channel.
If you have any questions about your channel drop them in the comments.
