It's amazing how they allowed smaller channels to have the community tab. It's such a crucial feature to have when trying to build your audience and not having to reach that gruelling 1000 subscriber benchmark is a breath of fresh air! 🙌🏻
Why polls do well is because people want to see what others have said and the only way to do so is engage. answering a question doesn't give you anything in return. A poll has a secret to reveal. That's the key. If the results were shown before you answered you'd see the engagement fall through the floor.
Hi mate, how long did it take for this to happen after you hit the subscriber threshold? I'm over a week now and still waiting. Congrats on your success.
Hey there @super t console gaming, I’m actually not sure what the timeframe was as I was not aware of the qualifying threshold to get access to community posts, so I was not actively looking. Sorry I can’t offer anymore insights here…still learning the whole YT game 😊
@@CampfireGuitarHero Thanks heaps mate, as it turns out, they switched it on about an hour ago. I'm still learning this YT thing as well. Good luck and thanks for taking the time to reply.
Yay!! I hit 500 a week ago today and was trying to figure out if I had it and saw a bunch of videos that didn’t give me a clear way to do it. Thanks for being clear and showing both desktop and mobile way!! Now I’m going to post my first ever Community Post!!🎉🎊🎉 SO MUCH PRESSURE and EXCITEMENT AT THE SAME TIME! 😝😄
I hit 500 last month and now at 800 subs while using community subs. It is really a great feature and you can see what your viewers want in regards to content!
I love watching your videos. They are so entertaining, informative, evergreen, and something you can come back again and watch again. And I think, I like learning from you more than any other creator.
I recently mentioned on my small channel that my target was 500 before the year end so I could gain access to the community tab. It seemed to work as I’ve had a jump in subs taking me closer 👍
8:39 I thought it was a clear winner, but apparently in my view of the YT posts, there is no one noticing the polls. I have 100k subscribers that are fans of the Power Rangers videos/content, but after waiting like a week or so when posting a poll to the tab, pretty much no one has voted on any polls. It's pretty much 200 votes on average each poll I do, and it's making me start to think that no one cares about community polls anymore nowadays.
You could possibly be getting ghosted by RUclips. Trust me I have gone on pills of my favorite channels to go to but all of a sudden I just dont see them anymore. And I have to MANYALLY search for their channel and look in their community posts for the newest polls. It's not your fault. It's the algorithm of YT 😊
@@CrochetwithClare awesome I have just started doing this. Some of my subscribers have become good friends and I asked them for favors like commenting as well
Thank you Justin! Primal video insider member here and just wanted to say your email brought me to this video at the perfect time! I just made it above 500 subs last weekend! Thank you as always 😘❤️
It’s such a privilege that they allow smaller channels to access the community features, Am so excited tho my subscribers is still under 100😂😂 But let’s keep fighting 💪🏼
@@iamabowalways no do say like that honey, we keep growing everyday, just don’t give up, be consistent in your posting, and engage more on other contents, you will definitely grow.. so let me hear you say “I can do this” 💪🏼
Keep going! It took me quite a while to reach 100 on my gardening channel. I keep my focus on creating good content and not the numbers but it’s nice when you reach and pass the benchmarks! 👍🏻
Bruh, i feel like community posts would help small channels grow, such as a channel that only has 10 or 15 subs. also they're pretty fun and can inform content creators about what the viewer wants.
I just hit 500 subs 🥳🥳🥳 so it's great to watch this and suss what's going to work best while I patiently wait for the community tab to activate. Super helpful! Thanks Justin 😊
@@PrimalVideo Thanks so much Justin! Still early days but I'm really grateful to you and your videos for helping me wrap my head around video creation 🙏
I just got access last week so the timing of this video is spot on. How often would you post to the community tab without coming across as spamming your audience?
I had asked a few different times for them to lower the threshold on this feature, because I saw the potential. I’m so glad they finally did. I just wish I was to 500, so that I could use it. I’ve noticed everyone has jumped on the bandwagon with this.
Some Channels have less than 500 subscribers, but still have a community tab. "Stephanie Osborn" and "The Beat Brothers Band" have 59 and 374 Subscribers Respectively and both have a community tab.
Great videos Justin! I just got the Community page - as a synth music artist growing my channel/subs, this is a great way to connect. Thanks for explaining/sharing your expertise!👍
it would be interesting if there was a study done into when people interact with the community tab and if videos would appear from that creator in the users youtube suggested videos :)
Man, this was gold thank you! I had no idea community existed - as a content creator or YT user. Instantly giving it a go, excited to see if it's going to add value to my channel!
Thanks for this video ; ) My community tab was just enabled this week, like so many others commenting. I do have question...how long does a post stay active/viewed once you post? I wasn't sure if it was a day or 2 or more? Thank you!
This is actually good to know. I had just started and want to tell my audience when i will be posting and also ask them lots of question to get closer to them. Thank you so much.🙏
@@PrimalVideo Does community tab show up to all my current 531 subscribers? Cuz I only get 1 to 2 likes in my community post even though I have 531 subscribers
Hi my channel has the community tab, but when I click create, there is no option to create post. How do I activate the function to create posts on the community posts?
You may need to use a phone to achieve this, click the plus and then select "post". Then there are going to be a bunch of options. Choose whatever you desire!
Here’s an amateur question but do you need permission from a channel to link their video either in the description of your own video or in the community tab? Thanks in advance!
Thank you for all the information! Going to use community tab for the first time soon! 😍 Your video definitely helps me understand how to properly use the new community tab in order to grow my channel. Thanks for all the useful tips!
Just got my community tab! Woo hoo! I immediately watched this video to figure out what I should post. Looks like I'm going to post a poll! Thanks for the suggestion and crunching the data. I would love to see a video on exactly how to get my posts to show up more places. Are there keywords involved? Do hashtags help? How do I get my posts in front of audiences who want to answer my poll questions?
Should I add hashtags on my community posts? Would that help increase reach or decrease engagement because people could click the hashtags which would take them away from my content? I noticed that when you click a hashtag and scroll through the content, only videos show up and not community posts.
So, I have question, like youtube videos which should be uploaded on a special time. Does engagement on community post works the same? I mean is there a good time to do a community post? Great video 😃
