6 Lessons from running a small youtube channel
1.Consistency is important
  • If I was more consistent with posting I could've achieved all of this in 1 year instead of 4 years
2.Don't rely on adsense
  • I was running a gaming channel and only made $1.50 per 1000 views. That's not much. If I had a product to sell I could've easily made 100x more money
3.Constantly improve your videos
  • Keep searching for weak points and try to improve them. I improved my titles, thumbnails and intros. Right now I'm struggling with audience retention so I'm trying to improve my scripts.
4.pick a niche
  • I know guys like Dan Koe say that 'you are the niche', but the truth is that YouTube has an easier time recommending your videos if you have a clearly defined niche.
  • I always start a new channel when doing a new niche. Each screenshot here is from a different channel.
5.Don't get distracted
  • It's so easy to see a shiny new idea you want to chase. It's better if you focus on only 1 thing. I'd be so much further if I put 100% of my effort into 1 channel
6.Do something you enjoy.
  • If you pick a niche you hate, you're not gonna last long. It's why I stopped posting on all these channels. I hated making videos on these channels.
