Number One is DO NOT DELETE ANY VIDEOS you upload even if it is WACK...Number Two is try NOT to use COPY WRITTEN Music cause they will DEMONETIZE that Video, DO NOT use music from I-MOVIE cause the music on there is Copy Written which will DEMONETIZE your video... i made these MISTAKES and my channel went from FAST GROWING to SLOW 🤔
really amazing tips, Just for reference - Improve some aspect in video after each upload - invest in mic/audio as its the most important thing in story telling - Use story telling as part of your video - Use unfair advantages - Be ready to be disliked - And last just get started Thanks for the tips
@@anusha2465 You provide an insight that is a culmination of everything that you've ever experienced/witnessed. You are a soup of ingredients that while many others share some of, none have the ingredients that exactly YOU are made up of.
Awesome video. I am small RUclipsr, and I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform. I am not beginner anymore, but I know how hard it can be (and honestly if I didn't use a lot of Fame- ster, I would have quit a long time ago. It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).
@@jami0 all the more reason to continue doing nothing, those ppl will get bored eventually lol. they have a problem which means they aren't doing "nothing". therefore if u continue to do nothing, they will get bored also eventually do nothing too 😆😆😆
if we want to avoid criticism by doing nothing, then we remain small and not reach our true potential in life. It not only affects us as a person, but also those who would be helped by us when we shine our light
Trust me when you only believe in Jesus then you will fear God and not people and you will only care about what God says which is true and not what people say who don’t know themselves anyway
Peeps, how do smaller channels even compete when bigger ones are out here using tools like social plus and zem rush to blow up? Feels like we’re all stuck grinding with no results. Sending good vibes to everyone!
I just started my channel 3 weeks ago, and I used all of your advice from procrastination, staying on a niche and be presistent, and knows that success cannot be achieved overnight! I'd love your advises Ruri, thank you for providing a lot of self-improvement advice.
I too find your advice very useful (RUclips is not an algorithm, it is an audience community) very helpful advice. I want to see more videos of your RUclips algorithm tips 😁.
Well done mate, almost at 1000 subs in 3 weeks. That's incredible 👏🏻👏🏻 I'm at 820 subs after 5 months and 67 videos, this stuff is hard-core but it's so worth while 🙏🏼 Keep plugging away and I look forward to seeing you reach 1000 🙌🏼🫶🏻
I am a Japanese male and learning English watching your videos. Every time, I record your video and watch it dozens of times while walking on treadmill. I changed my life watching your videos. I really appreciate you and want to catch up with your level ,and more than anything, respect you.
I've been watching your videos since the beginning. I've witnessed every step you took to get to where you are now. You're an inspiration to me. I'm considering starting a Math Teaching channel thanks to you, because I'm a really good teacher (According to my students) but I don't make much out of it, and watching your videos, seeing your growth and paying attention to your tips gave me the fuel I needed to make that decision. Thank you, Ruri. You're a blessed soul.
they usually think it's easy to make videos, but they never do it themselves. When I click on their profile, they usually have no videos and often no display picture of themselves
Great video, love all the info you provide. Starting and growing your channel is definitely the toughest part, but the thing is that you need to give viewers the content they want to see, the content they can't live without. Same like business owners give people products they need in their life. Also you have to stay hard working and consistent (and you should also use a little bit of Famester to make everything a lot easier. For me, it feels like I am in control of everything and I don't need to worry about algorithms anymore). Good luck to everyone.
Loved the part about the importance of audio and storytelling! I found boost app social super helpful for brainstorming ideas and creating engaging captions. It’s like having a creative partner for all your social media needs.
i'm 22 and also started doing youtube while I was in middle school... the cringe is insane but as of now I recently found what videos I love making while understanding the mindset in order to grow, thank you for being so real!
Ruri, your blend of practical advice and personal anecdotes makes every piece of wisdom resonate. From embracing our past as a sign of growth. Here's to the journey of self-improvement and the courage to share it-one video at a time. Keep shining, Ruri; we're all tuned in.
No this video is SO helpful. I’m applying all of this to my next video because I’m realizing I need rest to optimize my skills and research . And you’re not annoying! Your a really good RUclipsr
This guide is one of the most grounded, practical, but, at the same time, not pessimistic videos on the topic that I’ve come across (and I’ve actually watched A LOT). Really appreciate this! ❤
Worrying is our biggest enemy. I try to have this "is it in my control" chart in my mind all time. Life isn't easy, but not all the weight is yours to carry either. Teşekkürler, Ruri! 😊

4 Essential Ingredients for High Quality Videos on RUclips: 1. CLEAR AUDIO: Even if your video has no visual yet your audio quality is amazing, people would consume it. That's why music content is so popular and watched/consumed in billions. 2. STORY/PLOT: Connecting the dots will make you a great story teller. You must know how to connect to your audiences' emotions with your content or video. A good story is always remembered for years. 3. THE MESSAGE: You must know clearly what you wanna convey to your audience. Without having a purpose on your video, it won't make much impact. Don't just make random videos. 4. VISUALS: Use High Resolution footages, images, and Thumbnails. At least upload your video in 1080p.
decided to go all in and started my channel 2 months ago to finally do what i love - storytelling and cooking. as a new creator, there's been so many moments i've wanted to give up. it's videos like these that keep me inspired and motivate me to keep going. this was great. please keep pushing this out! and for anyone who's just starting out - whether it's a channel, a business, a degree, etc. - if you're feeling lost, i am too. would love to see you around!
i'm a creator who just started last week. saw some early traction, but that's plateau'd now. i am so inspired seeing - and being reminded - that we all come from somewhere. i started this channel as a way to find some form of fulfillment in things i love most - cooking and storytelling. every day - i ask myself: how do i feel turning a hobby into a job? what am i hoping to get out of this? other days, i don't feel so inspired. i feel apathetic. and it hurts. but this pushes me to keep going. cheers - happy 2024!
This is probably the best "if I would start a yt channel video" I have ever seen. You really took a deep dive into yourself and shared you own personal story. Let me tell you, you got the storytelling down! I didn't even realize that I was watching your ad in the video for epidemic sounds because you made it so smooth in your story and for good reasons of course. Music is very important. after years of putting in off I have started my own channel and I have much to learn but this video gives me so much reassurance that if you keep trying and evolving, you will get there. absolutely loved it when you said that you can increase your surface area for luck by working hard. Thank you for making this video!
First off, I think you offered quality tips here that others don't talk about. Marketing research and storytelling research are great suggestions that I don't remember hearing in other "how-to start" videos. Second, I also cringe so much at my younger self, and I like your Mom's wisdom. Usually my family members just gaslight me. Third, I recently decided to look at the oldest videos of a very successful youtuber who I admire. Her videos go back about 13 years, and when I saw how rough, shaky, grainy and raw her beginning videos were, compared to the cinematic quality of her videos now, that was the catalyst for me to feel like I can start making videos and not hold myself back anymore. So although I totally get why people put their earliest videos on private after they've improved, I'm really grateful that this person was ok with leaving it all out there. The transformation is truly incredible to see.
Thank you, Ruri! 2024 is promising to be a good year. I've removed one of the things I knew for fact was keeping me from moving as I wished -- Instagram. Now with all this free time I've been writing (on Medium) and practicing my speaking-to-the-camera skills.
I just started my channel and posted my first video and got little views but this made me realize that I need to stop caring about views and focus more about my videos as a hobby and having fun instead of being stressed about the views, I wish the person reading this a fast growth with their channel as well 🫶🌷
“People will watch your video even if your video quality is not that good. But if your audio quality sucks, then good luck!” - Ruri Ohama @7:29 - @7:36 Thank you for mentioning this Ruri! I've heard about this when I took a video content creation masterclass, but I also wanted to hear it from other video content creators who has made it, like you.
I've always wanted to start a youtube channel and I felt like I had nothing to show but I decided to just go for it because it's something I actually like doing! But I would say that the hardest part is mostly consistency and I'm definitely trying to find what my unfair advantage is:)
Ruri, I find you very successful. You share very high-quality and useful posts and you improve yourself day by day. I wish the continuation of your success. Stay with my love.
What a BEAUTIFUL VIDEO! Authentic, REAL, informative and HONEST. You are a beauty and you have inspired me! Thank you for your help. GOD BLESS you and your family.🙏 SPREAD LOVE! ❤
Hi Ruri I love your honestly and humbleness. Don’t let anyone get to you, you are a doing a great job. Unfortunately jealously gets the better of a lot of people. Just keep being you.
thankyou this was so helpful! i just started yesterday and ofcourse i’m aware you don’t get to a great level overnight but i do get discouraged easily. but i won’t give up thankyou!!
I consider myself as a confident person overall, but sometimes I am just so down and inconfident. And idk, how I just end up watching your videos, although they might not always directly relate to me but your vibes matches the confident version of myself and I just remember that I am a confident person overall and I feel much better. I appreciate your efforts and your explainations and how you relates quotes from various books and yt videos that you are reading and watching and it really have this impact on the consumer with the idea to just improve yourself, whatever you are doing. You are really amazing Ruri.
A few months ago I decided to start a YT channel about ADHD Awareness in Spanish, motivated by the lack of practical information available in my first language. I'm about to upload my second video and precisely while researching content to get some inspiration I found your channel, it was not only the mood and visual aesthetic I was kinda looking for but I also found a gold mine. Your content is so good, the storytelling, the delivery, the information.... I may only know you from some of your videos I've watched so far and I don't know your full story but I feel so proud and happy for you! Very well deserved 1M Subs 👌 PD: Looking forward to cringing at myself (More that usual) 🤣
Just stumbled upon your channel and this is the first video of yours that I watched. I found your information useful and sincere, something that many videos lack. I appreciate how succinct you were without any unnecessary fluff. I also opted in your waitlist for your RUclips course. Congrats on your accomplishments.
So I've been off and on with uploading on youtube for the last 2 years and this year it finally hit me that if I want to have a personal brand with a strong online presence: I NEED TO POST ON RUclips. I relate heavily to the part about being comfortable with being disliked. Truth is I wasn't and even now as I type this message the thought still makes me feel a bit "eeeh" but I realise that this is a part of life, therefore, execute the task. I am using this comment to voice my thoughts here and hold myself personally accountable to begin posting and build up a serious audience - thank you for allowing me to do so. I also noticed one thing in common that all of the haters have when they posted - they all have low sub counts and clearly feel intimidated by you. As Goggins says "You'll never see a hater that's doing better than you." Here I go - scripting, filming and editing will commence as of this week.
Thanks for this video. Recently I started viewing each video from creator perspective. I always noticed from my analytics that people dropped off from my video intros and when my videos are winding down and I never really thought of it much until i noticed I was doing same when i watch other creators with lengthy intros. People don't care about the long unnecessary intros.....just cut to the chase and give value...... This is what i now try to implement on my videos. 100% value from beginning to end
Content creation can be so hard and I still feel like I’m finding my way. Me and music, don’t get along and I feel like Storytelling still isn’t my thing, but at least in terms of sound effects and overall video editing I know I’m doing a good job. Loved the advice and thank you for this video!
Thank you for this video. We just started our channel a week ago and we can't believe how supportive the RUclips community has been 😃😄 Don't give up on your channel. It doesn't matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop!
Thank you for this video and for sharing your story. I’ve been procrastinating creating my channel for the last four years precisely because of the fear of sharing who I am, fear of opening up, fear of blossoming into the world. People can be really fucking cruel and the more sensitive one is the less encouraged they feel to get exposed and judged. I’m much closer than I’ve ever been though. The awful lot of shadow work I’ve done is bringing fruitful results. Thank you for this necessary video.
Awesome job! I like your persistency. I was filming for months on my main channel. Hours of great content but I just couldnt get any recognition. I wanted to delete my channel, but I found out I can push my channel with some initial subs and vies using some online services (i.e. fame ster). Now I have 20k of real people following me on my main channel
Ruri! So excited to hear that you're starting a course! I love your attitude, approach and truly appreciate all the knowledge and experience you're sharing 🙏
This is truly inspirational. I'm a retired, successful businessman who sold his business and currently enjoying my retirement and traveling the world with my wife. I binged watch RUclips to pass time. You inspired me to start a channel, sharing my life experiences and some financial tips. Wishing you all the best and may your channel continue to grow and prosper.
thanks Ruri!!! this is so motivational, useful and inspiring. I definitley want to push through, so the consistency and motivation to create is very helpful. Congrats on the success, wishing you more to come!
I'm starting my youtube Jourey because i broke up 1 week ago, and my ex told me i'll never be anything and i'm just a fool, that spark something on me , is a long way and i don't know if i will make it, but i know i can be someone better than my ex. I have 4 chanels, but them never interested me fully the way this new one does, because here i will expose my self better.
I’m currently on my 4th attempt at growing a RUclips channel, using everything I’ve learned from my failed channels. Thank you for the advice, I’m always learning! Also I’m 40 and I can promise you there will be much more cringing as you get older! 😂
As someone who is working on his RUclips channels as a side project and felt overwhelmed, videos like this are really comforting and mean a lot to people like me I must say. Thank you, enjoy watching your content as always.
4:19 - When you fade a title with a drop shadow, you need to combine the fill and shadow as a "precomp" or nested comp so that they both fade at the same time. What you have is the elements fading separately on two different layers, which causes the shadow to fight with the fill.
I love the concept of creating the best environment for luck by increasing your "surface area" by taking action! That isn't something I have ever heard verbalized the way you did and it really resonated with me. I started my channel a few months ago and I feel empowered to stay authentic to myself while focusing on market research (consumption) and improvements with each post. Thanks Ruri, I am glad I found you.
My biggest issue is to not make videos boring. Storytelling doesn't come natural to me so I'd love to see some in depth videos about that (or someone link me to resources you've found helpful for that, can be on another platform, too).
I've never been this inspired before holy crap.. you really changed my perspective especially with the algorithm, God Bless you Ruri, you are truly an amazing soul and I'm literally slamming my laptop keys writing this lol!
Hi Ruri, I am so overwhelmed with your channel in a positive way. I'm on the edge to taking the first step to creating my channel. Congrats on all your hard work and success.
Absolutely inspiring. Now I know the meaning of valuable content. I have a question for you Ruri: to do a single video, do you put down all the headlines and then present them from your head, or do you write the entire text, memeorize them and then speak them on your video? I have a problem with how to present the raw ideas that exist in my head and knowing the way you do it is the key point for me personally
“If you’re cringing your past self, that means, you grow up and changed which is a good sign.” - Ruri’s mom. Haha, I LOVE this. I cringe so hard at my past self 😆
You are amazing and so gorgeous, and I can't believe how people were so mean to you at your start, I reckon that they were just jealous of you. At that young stage of your life that could have really affected you. Thank you for your tips, they are going to help me in my endeavor
Making a RUclips video is hard. Getting subscribers is harder. But i believe my youtube channel will grow eventually as i get to learn more about RUclips by God's grace in Jesus name. Amen. Thank you, Ruhi Ohama. ❤❤❤❤❤

Hey there Psych2goers!😁😁😁
really amazing tips, Just for reference
- Improve some aspect in video after each upload
- invest in mic/audio as its the most important thing in story telling
- Use story telling as part of your video
- Use unfair advantages
- Be ready to be disliked
- And last just get started

How about unfair disadvantages 😢 I don't have unfair advantages..

Awesome video. I am small RUclipsr, and I think that for small channels the most important thing is to get good presence from the beginning. If you are not popular, people won't care even if you have the best videos and the best content on platform.

It made everything much easier for me, especially getting to 1000 subs and view hours).
Interesting. Trying to get those subs without fame and it is hard these days!
The only way to avoid criticism is to do nothing. As someone who's still struggling, I have so much respect for people who've made it. It isn't easy.
some ppl also have a problem with those who do nothing lol
There's always that someone who's going to talk smack about you. It's an infinite source of universal energy that no one really wants.
@@jami0 all the more reason to continue doing nothing, those ppl will get bored eventually lol. they have a problem which means they aren't doing "nothing". therefore if u continue to do nothing, they will get bored also eventually do nothing too 😆😆😆

Yes, I agree. We need to have fun with the process as we’re learning and the growth will come. Keep it up! Nice shorts 😋
@@ThriveWithStefyWefy thank you!
Thank you! I just started my RUclips channel last month. Good luck to everyone starting their’s 💕
“People will watch your video even if your video quality is not that good. But if your audio quality sucks, then good luck!” - Ruri Ohama @7:29 - @7:36 Thank you for mentioning this Ruri! I've heard about this when I took a video content creation masterclass, but I also wanted to hear it from other video content creators who has made it, like you.
Love your honest advices! Eye, mind and heart are the main viewer attraction ! Be real and authentic is key.
I've always wanted to start a youtube channel and I felt like I had nothing to show but I decided to just go for it because it's something I actually like doing! But I would say that the hardest part is mostly consistency and I'm definitely trying to find what my unfair advantage is:)
Done Please 🤍💜🤍💜💜

Amazing! I am going through each phase analysing and improving.
Ruri, I find you very successful. You share very high-quality and useful posts and you improve yourself day by day. I wish the continuation of your success. Stay with my love.
What a BEAUTIFUL VIDEO! Authentic, REAL, informative and HONEST. You are a beauty and you have inspired me! Thank you for your help. GOD BLESS you and your family.🙏 SPREAD LOVE! ❤
It's admirable to be authentic and share what you've learned the hard way for us, thank you Ruri!
Hi Ruri
I love your honestly and humbleness. Don’t let anyone get to you, you are a doing a great job. Unfortunately jealously gets the better of a lot of people. Just keep being you.
good advice, i like it.. Just started my channel, Nervous but hopeful this year of 2024. Wish me luck 💕
Good luck to all of us on this new and continuing journey 💚💚💚
good luck
thankyou this was so helpful! i just started yesterday and ofcourse i’m aware you don’t get to a great level overnight but i do get discouraged easily. but i won’t give up thankyou!!
I consider myself as a confident person overall, but sometimes I am just so down and inconfident. And idk, how I just end up watching your videos, although they might not always directly relate to me but your vibes matches the confident version of myself and I just remember that I am a confident person overall and I feel much better. I appreciate your efforts and your explainations and how you relates quotes from various books and yt videos that you are reading and watching and it really have this impact on the consumer with the idea to just improve yourself, whatever you are doing. You are really amazing Ruri.
💪👍
You have the most delightful voice and delivery. Thank you for the great advice! A lot to work on.
A few months ago I decided to start a YT channel about ADHD Awareness in Spanish, motivated by the lack of practical information available in my first language. I'm about to upload my second video and precisely while researching content to get some inspiration I found your channel, it was not only the mood and visual aesthetic I was kinda looking for but I also found a gold mine. Your content is so good, the storytelling, the delivery, the information.... I may only know you from some of your videos I've watched so far and I don't know your full story but I feel so proud and happy for you! Very well deserved 1M Subs 👌 PD: Looking forward to cringing at myself (More that usual) 🤣
👍*
Big channels were once small channels. Be encouraged ,your time will come. All the best.
Just stumbled upon your channel and this is the first video of yours that I watched. I found your information useful and sincere, something that many videos lack. I appreciate how succinct you were without any unnecessary fluff. I also opted in your waitlist for your RUclips course. Congrats on your accomplishments.
Thank you so much for this video. Started my channel and not getting any views discouraged me so bad but i'm not giving up.
i love how it's so reassuring every time i watch your video,
thank you so much ruri
Done Please 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thanks, Ruri!
I am a total newbie too, I have so much to learn in terms of what contents to create and how to create them professionally. Good luck to you!
So I've been off and on with uploading on youtube for the last 2 years and this year it finally hit me that if I want to have a personal brand with a strong online presence:
I NEED TO POST ON RUclips. I relate heavily to the part about being comfortable with being disliked. Truth is I wasn't and even now as I type this message the thought still makes me feel a bit "eeeh" but I realise that this is a part of life, therefore, execute the task. I am using this comment to voice my thoughts here and hold myself personally accountable to begin posting and build up a serious audience - thank you for allowing me to do so.
I also noticed one thing in common that all of the haters have when they posted - they all have low sub counts and clearly feel intimidated by you. As Goggins says "You'll never see a hater that's doing better than you."
Here I go - scripting, filming and editing will commence as of this week.
You are the most adorable content creator I have ever seen. Very authentic and super helpful. Thanks deep!
Thank you Ruri for all your advice! I started my RUclips channel last month and now I will try my best to bring your advice into my videos. 😁
💪👍
You are so wise beyond your years. And I can see you’re very self-aware.
I appreciate how honest you are about your journey! Thank you for these wonderful tips 💕
Done Please 💜💜💜💜
You're nice, sweet, kind, smart, and a beautiful person. 😊
Thank you for your videos.
I love this video!! Once you put your goals over your fears nothing can stop you. You guys got this, keep going :)
👍
Thanks for this video. Recently I started viewing each video from creator perspective.
I always noticed from my analytics that people dropped off from my video intros and when my videos are winding down and I never really thought of it much until i noticed I was doing same when i watch other creators with lengthy intros.
People don't care about the long unnecessary intros.....just cut to the chase and give value......
This is what i now try to implement on my videos. 100% value from beginning to end
Ruri love your contents 😊
You deserve the best ❤️
your dedication and creativity shine brightly, making this an absolute joy to watch! Keep it up! 😊👍
Content creation can be so hard and I still feel like I’m finding my way. Me and music, don’t get along and I feel like Storytelling still isn’t my thing, but at least in terms of sound effects and overall video editing I know I’m doing a good job.
Loved the advice and thank you for this video!
Thank you for this video. We just started our channel a week ago and we can't believe how supportive the RUclips community has been 😃😄
Don't give up on your channel. It doesn't matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop!
You guys are so goshdang cute. I’m subscribing 😊
Love your new channel @@borderlinebestie ❤️ We are subscribers and can't wait for your next video 😀 😊
You are the best ❤
Thanks for the tips 🎉
Keep going we'll support you all the time 😊
Thank you for this video and for sharing your story. I’ve been procrastinating creating my channel for the last four years precisely because of the fear of sharing who I am, fear of opening up, fear of blossoming into the world. People can be really fucking cruel and the more sensitive one is the less encouraged they feel to get exposed and judged. I’m much closer than I’ve ever been though. The awful lot of shadow work I’ve done is bringing fruitful results. Thank you for this necessary video.
Awesome job! I like your persistency. I was filming for months on my main channel. Hours of great content but I just couldnt get any recognition. I wanted to delete my channel, but I found out I can push my channel with some initial subs and vies using some online services (i.e. fame ster). Now I have 20k of real people following me on my main channel
2 mins in and I hit subscribe & I’m commenting, which I never do. You are so special, such a vibe, can’t wait to keep watching! ❤
Ruri! So excited to hear that you're starting a course! I love your attitude, approach and truly appreciate all the knowledge and experience you're sharing 🙏
Done Please 🤍💜🤍💜
This is truly inspirational. I'm a retired, successful businessman who sold his business and currently enjoying my retirement and traveling the world with my wife.
I binged watch RUclips to pass time. You inspired me to start a channel, sharing my life experiences and some financial tips. Wishing you all the best and may your channel continue to grow and prosper.
thanks Ruri!!! this is so motivational, useful and inspiring. I definitley want to push through, so the consistency and motivation to create is very helpful. Congrats on the success, wishing you more to come!
Done Please 💜💜💜💜💜
I'm starting my youtube Jourey because i broke up 1 week ago, and my ex told me i'll never be anything and i'm just a fool, that spark something on me , is a long way and i don't know if i will make it, but i know i can be someone better than my ex. I have 4 chanels, but them never interested me fully the way this new one does, because here i will expose my self better.
I’m currently on my 4th attempt at growing a RUclips channel, using everything I’ve learned from my failed channels. Thank you for the advice, I’m always learning!
Also I’m 40 and I can promise you there will be much more cringing as you get older! 😂
I start my channel today and I’m still working on my first upload 😊
@@Mrmysterious-dj1ov Good luck!
💪👍
As someone who is working on his RUclips channels as a side project and felt overwhelmed, videos like this are really comforting and mean a lot to people like me I must say. Thank you, enjoy watching your content as always.
4:19 - When you fade a title with a drop shadow, you need to combine the fill and shadow as a "precomp" or nested comp so that they both fade at the same time. What you have is the elements fading separately on two different layers, which causes the shadow to fight with the fill.
Done Please 💜💜💜💜💜
I love the concept of creating the best environment for luck by increasing your "surface area" by taking action! That isn't something I have ever heard verbalized the way you did and it really resonated with me. I started my channel a few months ago and I feel empowered to stay authentic to myself while focusing on market research (consumption) and improvements with each post. Thanks Ruri, I am glad I found you.
I am just a writer who puts some posts up with my poems and stories. Hardly a youtuber.@LindsayMargaret
My biggest issue is to not make videos boring. Storytelling doesn't come natural to me so I'd love to see some in depth videos about that (or someone link me to resources you've found helpful for that, can be on another platform, too).
You sound so honest in comparison to all these other channels giving YT tips.
This video was exactly what I needed! Thank you Ruri, you always make things simple, understandable, and actionable:)
I've never been this inspired before holy crap.. you really changed my perspective especially with the algorithm, God Bless you Ruri, you are truly an amazing soul and I'm literally slamming my laptop keys writing this lol!
I love how you said "market research" 377 times but not once explained what that is when it comes to creating RUclips videos.
It’s pretty self explanatory bud 4:22 it starts and basically you watch videos in your niche and view their content from an analytical perspective
Hi Ruri, I am so overwhelmed with your channel in a positive way. I'm on the edge to taking the first step to creating my channel. Congrats on all your hard work and success.
Absolutely inspiring. Now I know the meaning of valuable content. I have a question for you Ruri: to do a single video, do you put down all the headlines and then present them from your head, or do you write the entire text, memeorize them and then speak them on your video? I have a problem with how to present the raw ideas that exist in my head and knowing the way you do it is the key point for me personally
Done Please 💜💜💜💜💜
I was honestly shocked at those negative comments, but good on you for being yourself and putting yourself out there without backing down
“If you’re cringing your past self, that means, you grow up and changed which is a good sign.” - Ruri’s mom.
Haha, I LOVE this. I cringe so hard at my past self 😆
Me too😂 it’s sooooooo bad
No it means u hate ur past self. Or don't like it.
it doesn't @@josephisaround
the most amazing thing is that people encouraging each others ❤️😍🇧🇩
Let's not lie to ourselves. You would do well in 2023 and beyond simply because you are attractive. Congrats, you have already won at life.
You are amazing and so gorgeous, and I can't believe how people were so mean to you at your start, I reckon that they were just jealous of you. At that young stage of your life that could have really affected you. Thank you for your tips, they are going to help me in my endeavor
Making a RUclips video is hard. Getting subscribers is harder. But i believe my youtube channel will grow eventually as i get to learn more about RUclips by God's grace in Jesus name. Amen. Thank you, Ruhi Ohama. ❤❤❤❤❤
💪👍*
The music is my biggest thing...but I also make music so thinking of using my own stuff!!! Thanks soooo much
🇹🇷❤?
