Lots of truth in this. I highly recommend Shorts as a way to make your channel grow. Been making RUclips content seriously for 8 months after just being a viewer for years, and I’ve had some pretty good results. Good luck to everyone working towards building a following! 🎉
Naw. Shorts don't pay anything. One long form video can pay you tens of thousands of dollars with 1 million views. Depending on your niche , cpm/rpm. That same video in a short will pay you maybe a hundred bucks. Subscribers also don't mean anything after 1,000 and you're in the YTPP. It's all about views and multiple streams of income on the platform. I'm making more money with only 2k subs than others in my niche with 100k subs. If all you care about is getting massive amounts of subs for cloute, sure make shorts. If you care about making money and building a community....make long form content.
Always put your finances in good care to ensure that your income rises. Wealthy people achieve there financial goals and acquire riches by seeking help from finance pro(s) but many claim to have achieved success themselves.
I operate a wide range of investments and have achieved massive growth in my finances with the help of my financial professional, making my financial goal a reality.
One of the challenges many new channels face is the feeling of discouragement when they spend 5-7 days creating a video, only to upload it and receive just a few views and a few subs. Despite this, it's important to remember that success in the RUclips journey takes time and persistence. Embrace the learning process, stay committed, and know that every view is a step forward on your path to success. You've just begun this exciting RUclips journey, and with dedication, your efforts will undoubtedly yield positive results. Keep creating and stay motivated!.
You've helped me start taking my channel (a whopping 52 subscribers now) more serious (since a week) and I intend to make this work! Thanks for sharing your wisdom, experience and joy.
The fact I’ve NEVER heard of you but you have 4mil subscribers is inspiring. It lets me know that there’s so many people in the world and you have to practice consistency, planning and mindfulness

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my RUclips channel 7 months ago about self development. Now I have 750 subs and > 200 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

@@tammyintiaras Thank you! I think what makes me strong is forcing myself to make tons of mistakes, learning from them, and strategizing how I will approach similar situations in the future so I don't make the same mistakes again. Knowing that making mistakes is just part of life gives me the courage to get out of my comfort zone many times because I will never learn something new if I'm so afraid of fucking up. In fact, I recently joined a toastmaster club. This weekend, I'll be in front of a small group of people to give my 1st speech on stage, which scares the hell out of me but that's ok. I know that fear is part of life but it's all about having the courage to overcome fears.

My favourite part about the RUclips journey so far has been the skill acquisition. I never thought I'd fall in love with videography and editing as much as I have. To all those on the fence: make the jump!

I've been watching tons of these types of videos the last couple years, and this is by far my favorite! So clear, to the point, organized, focused. I really appreciate the easy-to-follow outline!
I finally started my RUclips channel a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been brainstorming trying to figure out what direction I want to take and how to execute it. Thanks so much for sharing this information.
Thank you! Made my first video and released it yesterday, currently reminding myself that I can’t instantly be good at it and it takes practice. Love these tips.

I would love to hear your advices , so latter I could open mine too😅 Please do share , how can I grow the channel
thats great, i think about quitting all the time because there are no results from this my goal is to get to 1000 im at 225 and the 4000 hours but its been so hard i will keep trying

Really liked the editing in this video, especially the small touch of using the progress bar at the bottom! Feel like I'm beginning to get to level 2 and need to focus on improving the quality of the videos that I do produce - thank you for this framework Ali!
Great job! I’m now at level 3 and it’s really fun to see how little changes to my videos can improve the viewer experience. It’s like the 1% improvement in the way you do things Ali always talks about. Good luck my friend! 🥂
hey guys, I'm a small creator as well. If you are serious into improving your channels, check Derral Eves livestreams as well as his book "RUclips formula"
Just started my own channel after years of procrastinating and being afraid to get started because of judgment, lack of video editing skills, and feeling just plain scared. I finally posted my first 3 videos in the last 3 weeks and it was so much more work than I even expected! I have much more respect for content creators than I did before. Latest lesson is using any sort of microphone if you don’t want background noise ruining your audio . Thanks and great video!
Thank you for the tip about the microphone, it just happened to me and I had no clue how to fix it , the video editing software helped but have not ereased it completely, I will be getting a microphone 😊
It shouldn't be hard at all, recording a simple video is all you need, but influencers have convinced you that without fancy editing and graphics, you'll never stand out. Look at Joe Rogan, he uses no fancy editing and he talks for 3 straight hours and its the #1 podcast in the country. He's basic, and people love it! People today are trying to hard to impress people vs being someone of actual value for people to gravitate to. Be interesting, have something to bring to the table that is unique to you, but that takes being secure with who you are and most people aren't.
Thank you Ali,You're the reason I started RUclips channel in February 2024.I followed You're steps and even though am yet to get to 1k.I have been consistent and thanks to you. Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
I started my channel last year and making videos can be both frustrating and motivating at the same time. You need to keep going. Going forward of creating videos should be the only option and keep learning as you go along with your journey. Always think you are just one video away to be successful. We can do this.
It's very interesting that RUclips essentially attracts two types of creators: those who are bold and don't mind what others think of them, and those who are on the other end of the spectrum: extremely shy and introverted, and prefer talking to the camera over talking to people.
I think I may have to disagree with your comment, sorry! I'm not bold and do worry about what others will think but I love talking to people - and I always find people open up to me. In fact talking with people is one of my greatest strengths. So I think I'm somewhere in the middle.
This is the video that finally made me start a youtube channel. I posted my first video today, and altough literally no one has watched it, im really motivated to keep going!!
You really deserve a thumbs you. I just saw your video for the first time and it lifted my spirits and now it is the time of starting from Level 1. Thank you ❤
To everyone reading this, don't give up on your channel. You got this! With time, you will get to the point you've always aimed for. We are on this together ❤
Whoever is reading this, you are doing great. It doesn't matter how slow your work is, it's important that you progress day by day. I believe in you and I hope that we will all be at the top soon.
The aspect of my RUclips journey that I have enjoyed the most is the acquisition of new skills. I never anticipated developing such a strong passion for videography and editing. If you're hesitant, I encourage you to take the leap and give it a try.
Learn the craft- oh how true! We started our channel after someone watched an unedited home video! For me it’s learning a new skill and I’m loving it. All our film and pictures over three years is totally amateur as a personal record of an adventure through a change in life. Now it’s becoming a story. I had no idea how much enjoyment I would get out of the writing and editing process - it’s creative, challenging and immersive. I wish everyone success in what they do and you’ve shown others how to reach levels they probably didn’t know they were capable of achieving. Hats off to you Ali!
Ali, your encouragement means a lot to me. Knowing that I'm on the right path and hearing it from you feels great. I've been dedicated to consistently uploading videos, and I've already reached 50. Thank you for the motivation!
Your videos have really changed my perception of my own craft as an artist Ali... I have gotten so much value from your videos it's ridiculous. I will definitely take this last live cohort chance!!!!
Ali needs to make a book about being a new content creator!! Feel good productivity is easily one my favorite books. I just started RUclips and I think a book from Ali on the topic would be a great tool for people just starting out on the platform.
this is so different from any other RUclips advice video I've seen in the same genre but something about the way you explain it, the relationship analogy and really breaking it down in the number of videos, it really helped in stick in my ADHD brain and inspire me a lot more, as opposed to other videos who really just hammer down on niche and staying consistent and making high quality content. thank you!
I just recently started my own RUclips channel and yesterday I posted my first video 🙈. It was quite nerve wracking but I’m excited, and I look forward to growing my channel and making new friends 🥰❤️❤️❤️
Are you looking to skyrocket your RUclips channel's visibility and engagement? Elevate your RUclips presence! I'll optimize your channel for higher visibility, driving increased views and engagement.
Great video Ali! You are by far one of the most qualified people to talk about this topic (own experience with growing the channel + teaching others) and it was amazing to hear you emphasize on what is important. Thank you!
I love all this knowledge being shared.....the RUclips community is so amazing! I've only just begun.. so it's early days but happy with my content so far.....Thanks to everyone who’s part of it! 🌿
It’s really hard to keep up and create new contents every other week but its rewarding when viewers appreciate and enjoy your contents. To my fellow creators who are afraid of posting their contents because someone might not like it, JUST POST IT (you’ll never know whose gonna enjoy your contents unless you try) 💪✨

Recap by Tammy AI
Hello 🤗 first time viewer here. I have decided to start my YT channel. I am confident that with my creativity and your knowledge, I can do it! Thank you. Blessings 🙏
Applied for the scholarship today!! Would absolutely love to be part of this, especially being the last live cohort, and learning the systems and processes. I can't wait, so excited 😁
Just do it. It's so hard but so fun. When I commited to it it became easier and harder and the same time. I'm going nowhere so far or at least that's how I feel but I think that if I keep going and improving, while being authentic and creative, It'll eventually happen.
I love gaming and my two cats. These two are basically where I spend most of my time outside of work. I always wanted to make my own channel and start uploading videos because I feel like positive experiences are more enjoyable when shared with others. Your videos has encouraged me to finally make a channel and upload my first video!
Watched the 2022 version of this video as well. Proud that I kept going and I'm now at the level of improving my systems and processes. Thanks for always sharing valuable tips at 1.5x speaking speed 😂
Actually decided to start my RUclips channel about a month ago. It’s a big learning curve but also lots of fun. Each subscriber I get makes me so fricken happy and hypes me up to a insane level.
Loved how you broke it down to three simple phases Ali! Made me feel like I can put much less pressure on myself too to have it all figured out from day one, as long as I get going and keep going. Just started my channel last week and this is exactly what I need🙌🏼 Thank you!
I want to highlight that first lesson... JUST START! So often we feel like we need to know exactly what we're doing to start something! Where in reality once we've actually made the first step, motivation comes much easier.
The first step get used to using your camera, lighting, and sound. Sometimes the sound just does not come right. get a good film editor software and learn how to use it. After a few months, you will look back on your first video and realize how bad the filming is😊
Thank you so much for always being so generous with your knowledge. I've learned so much from you over the years, and through different life stages too! It seems like whatever I've got on my mind, you've got a video on how to do it smarter. Keep at it Ali and team!
Greatest takeaway is to setup a system. I have everything I need: professional audio and video equipment, software, studio etc. Time allocation is my biggest hurdle. Working a regular 9-5, plus producing a weekly podcast, I have a lot going on. Thanks for sharing this.
By far, this is the greatest tutorial I have found. The speed is perfect and Ali's delivery is so fabulous. I am so exited to put everything he said into practice. I am literally going to do exactly what he says step by step. Starting now. Today Ali Connor, The Joyful Badsss channel is born. 6/6/23 at 2:56 pm.
Your channel is God sent. Just discovered it. I want to become a youtuber in 2025 to upload spiritual and self improvement content. I just need a guide on how to start etc. Ill check your courses
I totally agree on the advice: start to get going! Adding the fact that one should never loose patience because the process takes also time BEFORE it takes up or even end up in endless self-doubt adds additional value to my mind
Great advice! Have my first 3 videos posted and I’ve learned soooo much about everything you listed but most importantly, MYSELF. Consistency, discipline, and authenticity ✨
Love love love this! I am such an over thinker! I love that you are literally telling us film 3 videos, film 7 videos! You gave examples of what you would create. You are helping All the over thinkers get beyond thought! I am out of free time today but I am going to do this starting tomorrow morning! Definitely getting my 👍 and subscription. Thanks for what you’re doing.
I am also a digital nomad and recently started a RUclips channel. I am really debating whether I should go all in with this or not haha. I am an economist and have a full-time job that is pretty demanding. Growing a channel organically seems like a big time effort. Regret is my biggest fear. But enough with rambling, thanks for sharing this, Ali!
Love you videos! I just started a channel. 3 videos in. 0 views, crickets.. but I learnt that I enjoyed making the videos and songs. So I am gonna keep at it. Even if nobody ever looks at them 😅.
Probably the best video about this subject ever.... I quit RUclips some time ago but I'll be starting a new channel soon. I've been doing yt for 7 years by now, very small niche, old skateboarders.... but I can relate to everything you said. Now I needed some gas to get going again and I'm realising I could do way more. Watching your tips, I realised I kind of have all there skills needed. I doubted for a long time but you brought me back on track. Thanks a bunch. Have a great life, mate ^^
Such great tips, love the fact that you went straight into it :). I am still in phase one, I need to take my youtube channel more seriously and commint to it. Thank you so much!
This is amazing stuff ! I started out my own channel thanks to all your incredible content and tips just over two months ago ! Thank you so much Ali for everything 😄
I dreamed about creating youtube videos since I was 16. I started posting videos 2 years ago (I´m 30 now) and don´t regret it. It´s so nice to see comments of other people, even though my channel is really small. Plus I can already see how much faster I am with the creation process
just started my channel and while it's a bit challenging, I also can't help but feel satisfied when I get done with editing especially and everything looks looks so well put together.
Really insightful, thanks Ali! :-), I started my channel 3 months back, and you are totally right - it takes time/money/effort if you want to go all in, there is so much behind the scenes I never considered before I started - however, loving it!!
Something has been holding me back, and that something is Fear. Thank you for this video. I am determined to get a video posted right away. I am lost but I know I will find my way.
The consistency part is definitely the hardest part after getting past those first few videos and finding a niche. Genuine Question for all the other small RUclipsrs, how do you rearrange your schedules to edit or videos? or do you care more about creating consistent content than focusing on quality?
It's the most difficult part for me as well... it is not easy at all. Sometimes I will stay up all night to edit and publish it. Sometimes, if I can't finish a good video, I will make a different one first, with inferior quality. So I have more time to finish the "good" one. I am trying to publish 2 videos every month and so far I've suceeded (4 videos this year). How about you?
I have to squeeze video editing in between a full time job and a side job of building a media company. I have to time block my day a lot and on the weekends I'm spending a lot more time working than doing fun things at the moment. But it's okay! @@PatasEmPauta
nvesting in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.
I've been able to scale from $50K to $189k in this red season because my Financial Advisor figured out Defensive strategies which help portfolios be less vulnerable to market downturns.
ROCH DUNGCA-SCHREIBER , she was in the news when she revived Grumac in 2018. You can look her up online, there isn’t much I can say here so it doesn’t seem as if i am promoting an agenda.
Great content, subbed! We’re brand new creators and have found that enjoying the process is equally important as mapping the destination. Happy creating y’all 👍
Thank you very much for breaking it down into smaller steps. I have been great at planning yet, challenged at the execution - basically making the videos. Too much research and not enough doing! This has helped greatly!
Thanks for this video - I started my RUclips journey two years ago and crossed 80k\month NET profit with two major channels. However I do notice lately that all the RUclipsrs rather keep the real methods to themselves. I understood that after reading an eBook. No one is talking on how to outrank competitors, how to gain additional traffic outside YT, how to do proper off site SEO for additional exposure etc...
Action conquers fear.
Amen
Lots of truth in this. I highly recommend Shorts as a way to make your channel grow. Been making RUclips content seriously for 8 months after just being a viewer for years, and I’ve had some pretty good results. Good luck to everyone working towards building a following! 🎉

*People say that money is not the key to happiness, but I always figured if you have enough money, you can have a key made.*
“The greater the passive income you can build, the FREER you will become.”

I never buy subscribers. They come naturally through youtube shorts. If you don't know that kind of idea, you better work it now.
making videos should not be a burden if you enjoy it. Do you?
It's very interesting that RUclips essentially attracts two types of creators: those who are bold and don't mind what others think of them, and those who are on the other end of the spectrum: extremely shy and introverted, and prefer talking to the camera over talking to people.
yesss I am the latter lol
U mean everybody 🙄
I think I may have to disagree with your comment, sorry! I'm not bold and do worry about what others will think but I love talking to people - and I always find people open up to me. In fact talking with people is one of my greatest strengths. So I think I'm somewhere in the middle.
I am the latter
@@Slynell1why so negative?
This is the video that finally made me start a youtube channel. I posted my first video today, and altough literally no one has watched it, im really motivated to keep going!!
You really deserve a thumbs you. I just saw your video for the first time and it lifted my spirits and now it is the time of starting from Level 1. Thank you ❤

@@thrivinginvestors8575hi 😘
I just started this month and I’ve already learnt SO MUCH about RUclips!
The aspect of my RUclips journey that I have enjoyed the most is the acquisition of new skills. I never anticipated developing such a strong passion for videography and editing. If you're hesitant, I encourage you to take the leap and give it a try.
I'm so glad you're providing scholarship to those in need. Such an innovative idea and shows the humility you hold and your passion for teaching.
To the person reading this… don’t give up, keep uploading, we got this! 💪🏻
To the person reading this, you’re gonna get a successful RUclips Channel, I belive in you❤
👍🏽

Thank you. I belive in your spelling❤

I I'll be successful one day🎉
Wahhh this is perfect! I startet my channel today, and I'm really committed to taking this seriously. So this is very valuable, thanks for sharing!
Well done on keeping going!
Yes, OVERTHINKING is my problem. But I have the idea of what I need to do now. God Bless you brother.
Learn the craft- oh how true! We started our channel after someone watched an unedited home video! For me it’s learning a new skill and I’m loving it. All our film and pictures over three years is totally amateur as a personal record of an adventure through a change in life. Now it’s becoming a story. I had no idea how much enjoyment I would get out of the writing and editing process - it’s creative, challenging and immersive. I wish everyone success in what they do and you’ve shown others how to reach levels they probably didn’t know they were capable of achieving. Hats off to you Ali!
Ali, your encouragement means a lot to me. Knowing that I'm on the right path and hearing it from you feels great. I've been dedicated to consistently uploading videos, and I've already reached 50. Thank you for the motivation!
Imagine 1 year down the line this video is helping people like me to start and continue growing on RUclips.
Let's grow ❤
We are all gonna make it! NEVER GIVE UP AND KEEP IMPROVING!❤
73.6% of RUclipsrs are above average.
Your videos have really changed my perception of my own craft as an artist Ali... I have gotten so much value from your videos it's ridiculous. I will definitely take this last live cohort chance!!!!
Ali needs to make a book about being a new content creator!! Feel good productivity is easily one my favorite books. I just started RUclips and I think a book from Ali on the topic would be a great tool for people just starting out on the platform.
Just made the jump, recorded and posted yesterday my first video. It was nerve wrecking and really proud of you Esther
this is so different from any other RUclips advice video I've seen in the same genre but something about the way you explain it, the relationship analogy and really breaking it down in the number of videos, it really helped in stick in my ADHD brain and inspire me a lot more, as opposed to other videos who really just hammer down on niche and staying consistent and making high quality content. thank you!
Great comment
I just recently started my own RUclips channel and yesterday I posted my first video 🙈. It was quite nerve wracking but I’m excited, and I look forward to growing my channel and making new friends 🥰❤️❤️❤️
Are you looking to skyrocket your RUclips channel's visibility and engagement? Elevate your RUclips presence! I'll optimize your channel for higher visibility, driving increased views and engagement.
You got this I also just started posting on RUclips . You’re killing it almost 200 views already!? keep up the good work 💪🏼@kiki_mofokeng
If you can get more views of your video and lock in an endorser then SEO your video at that point,
SEO standard motor optimization.
Finally someone in the UK who is teaching RUclips. Well done I've subscribed 👍
Great video Ali! You are by far one of the most qualified people to talk about this topic (own experience with growing the channel + teaching others) and it was amazing to hear you emphasize on what is important. Thank you!
Agreed Sir
I love all this knowledge being shared.....the RUclips community is so amazing! I've only just begun.. so it's early days but happy with my content so far.....Thanks to everyone who’s part of it! 🌿
It’s really hard to keep up and create new contents every other week but its rewarding when viewers appreciate and enjoy your contents. To my fellow creators who are afraid of posting their contents because someone might not like it, JUST POST IT (you’ll never know whose gonna enjoy your contents unless you try) 💪✨

Recap by Tammy AI
Hello 🤗 first time viewer here. I have decided to start my YT channel. I am confident that with my creativity and your knowledge, I can do it! Thank you. Blessings 🙏
Applied for the scholarship today!! Would absolutely love to be part of this, especially being the last live cohort, and learning the systems and processes. I can't wait, so excited 😁
Just do it. It's so hard but so fun. When I commited to it it became easier and harder and the same time. I'm going nowhere so far or at least that's how I feel but I think that if I keep going and improving, while being authentic and creative, It'll eventually happen.
I love gaming and my two cats. These two are basically where I spend most of my time outside of work. I always wanted to make my own channel and start uploading videos because I feel like positive experiences are more enjoyable when shared with others. Your videos has encouraged me to finally make a channel and upload my first video!
Watched the 2022 version of this video as well. Proud that I kept going and I'm now at the level of improving my systems and processes. Thanks for always sharing valuable tips at 1.5x speaking speed 😂
😂 it does feel like that!
Actually decided to start my RUclips channel about a month ago. It’s a big learning curve but also lots of fun. Each subscriber I get makes me so fricken happy and hypes me up to a insane level.
Just started two days ago and I feel the same.😊
THANK YOU for getting right to the point! I've watched so many people talk for several minutes before they even get near their point!
Loved how you broke it down to three simple phases Ali! Made me feel like I can put much less pressure on myself too to have it all figured out from day one, as long as I get going and keep going. Just started my channel last week and this is exactly what I need🙌🏼 Thank you!
Go Carmen!! 💯💯
@@jonstnr thanks so much Jon!! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Hlo if you want 1k subscribers tell me
@@its.carmenwong subscribed to your channel and will check your videos later 🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@jonstnr thanks so much Jon!!
I want to highlight that first lesson... JUST START! So often we feel like we need to know exactly what we're doing to start something! Where in reality once we've actually made the first step, motivation comes much easier.
You still need to know what you want to upload
Why my shorts not getting views. Please tell
The first step get used to using your camera, lighting, and sound. Sometimes the sound just does not come right. get a good film editor software and learn how to use it. After a few months, you will look back on your first video and realize how bad the filming is😊
hey which software would you recommend please@@stevesshowreel.
Thank you for all of this information. Afterwards I couldn't help but reminisce on the days when RUclips wasn't so complicated.
Finally coming back to RUclips after 2 years and this video has been so useful! Thank you Ali.
Thank you so much for always being so generous with your knowledge. I've learned so much from you over the years, and through different life stages too! It seems like whatever I've got on my mind, you've got a video on how to do it smarter. Keep at it Ali and team!
Greatest takeaway is to setup a system. I have everything I need: professional audio and video equipment, software, studio etc. Time allocation is my biggest hurdle. Working a regular 9-5, plus producing a weekly podcast, I have a lot going on. Thanks for sharing this.
Consistency is all what you need to start seeing good results 🔑
I try to be consist weekly . I post in the community tab and reply to comments . Sometimes my videos don't get a lot of views
This is a FACT.
By far, this is the greatest tutorial I have found. The speed is perfect and Ali's delivery is so fabulous. I am so exited to put everything he said into practice. I am literally going to do exactly what he says step by step. Starting now. Today Ali Connor, The Joyful Badsss channel is born. 6/6/23 at 2:56 pm.
All the best! 🥰
Amazing, what were ur learnings implementing them?
Your channel is God sent. Just discovered it. I want to become a youtuber in 2025 to upload spiritual and self improvement content. I just need a guide on how to start etc. Ill check your courses
I totally agree on the advice: start to get going! Adding the fact that one should never loose patience because the process takes also time BEFORE it takes up or even end up in endless self-doubt adds additional value to my mind
Sure...patience is the key
Great advice! Have my first 3 videos posted and I’ve learned soooo much about everything you listed but most importantly, MYSELF. Consistency, discipline, and authenticity ✨
Hello are you a RUclipsr
Love love love this! I am such an over thinker! I love that you are literally telling us film 3 videos, film 7 videos! You gave examples of what you would create. You are helping All the over thinkers get beyond thought! I am out of free time today but I am going to do this starting tomorrow morning! Definitely getting my 👍 and subscription.
Thanks for what you’re doing.
I am also a digital nomad and recently started a RUclips channel. I am really debating whether I should go all in with this or not haha. I am an economist and have a full-time job that is pretty demanding. Growing a channel organically seems like a big time effort. Regret is my biggest fear. But enough with rambling, thanks for sharing this, Ali!
Would be interesting to watch, as i haven’t seen many economist channels ! Best of luck !
Love you videos! I just started a channel. 3 videos in. 0 views, crickets.. but I learnt that I enjoyed making the videos and songs. So I am gonna keep at it. Even if nobody ever looks at them 😅.
ali you're definitely one of the youtubers who inspired me the most to start my journey - thank you so much all you do 🙌
Oh wow 🤩 great work!! You’re over 700 subscribers in 3months,that’s really impressive 🎉
@@Ibiponmisola thank you so much🥹
Looking to jump on to level 2 on my personal journey. Thanks for the dopamine of motivation, now its time to focus on the discipline.
Probably the best video about this subject ever.... I quit RUclips some time ago but I'll be starting a new channel soon. I've been doing yt for 7 years by now, very small niche, old skateboarders.... but I can relate to everything you said. Now I needed some gas to get going again and I'm realising I could do way more. Watching your tips, I realised I kind of have all there skills needed. I doubted for a long time but you brought me back on track. Thanks a bunch. Have a great life, mate ^^
The Part Time RUclipsr Academy seriously has some crazy gems. Yes, It was expensive but it was worth it
You were one of the first few channels I watched RUclips tips from. I haven’t stopped grinding since. Appreciate you bud 🙌
Many good points here, get going sounds obvious, but getting started is the hardest part
Such great tips, love the fact that you went straight into it :). I am still in phase one, I need to take my youtube channel more seriously and commint to it.
Thank you so much!
This is amazing stuff ! I started out my own channel thanks to all your incredible content and tips just over two months ago ! Thank you so much Ali for everything 😄
Been in Yt for 4+ years and lost account twice too but here I am not giving up
Shout out to all the small RUclipsrs out there we can do it 💪
Love you Ali. Thank you for the invaluable content as always. God bless you and your family.
Thank you for still making these videos. there's still people out there wanting to make the leap
I just sent it! I’ve been posting this week and getting over the first hurdle was definitely the hardest but so gratifying
I dreamed about creating youtube videos since I was 16. I started posting videos 2 years ago (I´m 30 now) and don´t regret it. It´s so nice to see comments of other people, even though my channel is really small. Plus I can already see how much faster I am with the creation process
Love the breakdown here! The RUclips journey is long and painful but hopefully one day it’ll be worth it
I've really been watching him since he start that is crazy, love to see the growth
just started my channel and while it's a bit challenging, I also can't help but feel satisfied when I get done with editing especially and everything looks looks so well put together.
Really insightful, thanks Ali! :-), I started my channel 3 months back, and you are totally right - it takes time/money/effort if you want to go all in, there is so much behind the scenes I never considered before I started - however, loving it!!
THIS IS GREAT , THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFORMATIVE VIDEO. GOD BLESS EVERYONE WATCHING THIS VIDEO📹 ❤❤❤❤
I loved the lecture. I came here because I want to create content on RUclips. I want to treat it as a business and be fully committed.
Live the dream and go for it, i started my RUclips last month, im excited about the journey
I'm fighting to monetize, I'll never give up.💪 Thanks for the content ♥️
Improve your thumbnail bro ❤
@@Abhishek-wg9ps Thanks for the tip bro, I'll try to improve them.♥️

@@Abhishek-wg9ps I'm very grateful for your support, all the success to you bro, thank you
The title has changed from 2023 to 2024 to 2025.
Something has been holding me back, and that something is Fear. Thank you for this video. I am determined to get a video posted right away. I am lost but I know I will find my way.
The consistency part is definitely the hardest part after getting past those first few videos and finding a niche.
Genuine Question for all the other small RUclipsrs, how do you rearrange your schedules to edit or videos? or do you care more about creating consistent content than focusing on quality?
It's the most difficult part for me as well... it is not easy at all. Sometimes I will stay up all night to edit and publish it. Sometimes, if I can't finish a good video, I will make a different one first, with inferior quality. So I have more time to finish the "good" one. I am trying to publish 2 videos every month and so far I've suceeded (4 videos this year). How about you?
I have to squeeze video editing in between a full time job and a side job of building a media company. I have to time block my day a lot and on the weekends I'm spending a lot more time working than doing fun things at the moment. But it's okay! @@PatasEmPauta
Quantity gradually brings quality..batch create and using editing templates help manage time efficiently..
I’ve seen the journey you’ve been on with your book and I’m so happy to hear it’s progressing nicely.
🎉🎉🎉
I appreciate that people that have "made it" still choose to make videos helping and encouraging others to do the same.
nvesting in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.

@HassanChoukri-jo7kuBS! You two are obvious scammers who are working together! You don’t fool anyone and you should be ashamed of yourselves!!!
Great content, subbed! We’re brand new creators and have found that enjoying the process is equally important as mapping the destination. Happy creating y’all 👍
Thank you very much for breaking it down into smaller steps. I have been great at planning yet, challenged at the execution - basically making the videos. Too much research and not enough doing! This has helped greatly!
To the person who is reading this don't give up on your RUclips channel, keep going it's going to get better....❤🙏🏾
Thanks for this video - I started my RUclips journey two years ago and crossed 80k\month NET profit with two major channels. However I do notice lately that all the RUclipsrs rather keep the real methods to themselves. I understood that after reading an eBook. No one is talking on how to outrank competitors, how to gain additional traffic outside YT, how to do proper off site SEO for additional exposure etc...
Do you know if it's possible to rank with CTR manipulation with real users (no bots)?
@@davidpatel924 Yes but you will need few people to help (approx 5%).
