I feel like my thumbnails are getting better as well. But I look at other and I am like dang. Guess some people just know how to make a great thumbnails love the video. Thanks think media. Also love the Dbacks hat!
I've remembered to "keep posting" for 7 years, it isn't working lmao tbf I've deleted around half of my videos over my channel's lifetime because a lot of them were pretty bad, but I still have 95 currently and it just hasn't worked
Honestly - I think new youtube creators dont take thumbnails seriously enough - they constantly put in 100% on the video content but then neglect the thumbnail in an effort to push the video out quickly - my channel literally exploded (600 subs in 2 weeks) as soon as I changed up my thumbnails to be more attractive - now keeping in mind prior to this I had only gained 100 subscribers in 2 months - nobody can see your amazing content if they dont click on it in the first place.
@@joshsmilerbasketball I just spent alot more time on them - granted they still arent fantastic but my views skyrocketed when i changed the format on them - the tweaking is still ongoing though
The thing is though, why would I want to grab attention of random audience who are not even interested in the content when my videos are very specific for a narrow audience? Why would I want to grab attention just for the sake of it? P.S. I actually liked this video when I watched it to the end. Respect!
I plan to make it , and get monetized soon. Notes: 1. Faces help grab attention. 2. Bright Colors too. 3. Big readable texts. 4. Simple is better, use 3 elements. 5. Draw curiosity. Did I miss anything.
Where's your data? What's the testing methodology? What's your control? This is all anecdotal reading of tea leaves, besides itself being an advertisement. For every "magic thumbnail video" I can show you 10 that have a plain frame of video. I say your conclusions are nonsensical, or guessing at best. What you thumbnail guys are doing, is finding million-plus watched videos, then, assuming it's the thumbnail image that leads people to click, set out to derive some mystical formula from the thumbnails, all the while ignoring the channel or the content. I say content is king, and success hinges upon regularly posted, compelling content with either a charismatic or attractive host. Full stop. And not only will I not click on exploitative thumbnails (which is what you are describing), I will block the channel from my feed because you are showing me up front that you are a dishonest and manipulative person.
How cool is it that you got right to the point within seconds?! Definitely taking notes! My favorite takeaway is using no more than 3-4 words max on the thumbnail.
@@bloomfilms I tend to agree, I've actually tested that theory recently and have seen an uptick in views. I just switched a thumbnail over on my recent video down to just 2 words and the views started to increase right away. Good stuff!
I have a question; I'm starting my RUclips channel and I already have a few videos up and I mix around my content as well put them in folders so viewers can watch whatever they want. Want I'm struggling with is what should my main Priority content should be? I want to be a gaming channel, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Great stuff, thanks! I have an at home workout channel and always use a natural background in thumbnails to show that I am literally working out in my kitchen or wherever. It can also look cluttered. Interested in peoples thoughts on natural background vs photoshopped?
I pay for RUclips Premium and enjoy watching RUclips videos on my TV. I did have to switch to my phone to make this comment. Occasionally, I will watch a video on my laptop. Even less often I'll use my phone, but only if the TV and laptop are not available. Mostly when I'm away from home when I didn't bring my laptop.
Were you able to catch Sean's free live class yesterday? It's about how to get more views on your videos and turn those views into a passive income. You can catch the replay here! freetubeclass.com/
Thanks Nolan! So right on point and right on time! lol I'm making a new thumbnail right now and your vid popped up! Awesome tips! Ok, I'm taking some extra text off right now! lol 😁
Dude this video was so helpfull thanks. I was wondering if you can do a video on if you need to restart a new youtube channle if your content of your original channle if all over the place. It's hard to explain but I feel that my content is all over the place and idk what to do?
I find that some videos it's best to use a clip from the actual video as thumbnail most times without words. Then some videos I need to make custom thumbnails. Depending on the content
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! WE ARE ALMOST AT 1K SUBSCRIBERS HOWEVER WE ARE UPDATING OUR THUMBNAILS AND WE WILL BE TAKING YOUR ADVICE. 😇 THANK YOU FOR HELPING ALL CONTENT CREATORS.🙏
I appreciate you helping me out with the befter thumbnails idea. One thing I did not like about your video here though was your end-screen video did not stay on the screen long enough to watch your other suggested video because it went off to fast so I had to go back in my history and replay your video again and slide It to the back of the video and click on your suggested video finally at the top right corner. So from the first time you told me to watch that suggested video and the time I had to click on it was too short a duration the first time around.
I don't know how to make thumbnails? - I've tried very hard, I can't fathom the instructions, I've got the Android ultimate thumbnail maker, but I'm lost on how it works?

My thumbnails are getting better, but I still need some practice to improve even more. 👍

I've not started
I've had to learn to make the thumbnails for the masses and not what I like.
It all takes time guys... Remember keep posting and stay positive 💯👌🤘

Always stay positive, someday we will succeed ❤️

How did you make them more attractive?? Agreed
Truth!! Congrats!👌🏻
@@joshsmilerbasketball I guess by using the principles he listed above

Agree

P.S. I actually liked this video when I watched it to the end. Respect!
I don't have a computer..can I make thumbnails on my Motorola phone with Canva?
Bro are you an Arizona Boy? Not many people sporting Arizona Dbacks gear these days unless they are locals!
I plan to make it , and get monetized soon.
Notes:
1. Faces help grab attention.
2. Bright Colors too.
3. Big readable texts.
4. Simple is better, use 3 elements.
5. Draw curiosity.
Did I miss anything.
Never trust your memory alone. take notes. Kudos.
I wonder if the same rules apply to the ASMR community.
I consume almost everything mobile.
I exclusively use I pad
Think Media always has awesome tips!
Thanks! :)
Love the tips! I knew some, but they are still a great reminder!
Good luck all on improving the thumbnail game ✌️
Thanks!
I watch on my phone

Who hurt you? Have a snickers & relax.
Great video. I've been working on a uniform look on my channel.. thank you
Glad it was helpful! :)

Thank you!!
I'd argue that unless it's a number, 1-2 words is most eye-catching

I’m not going to lie your thumbnail made me click 🤣
💯
Woohoo!
Same!😂🤷🏼♀️
To the YT Creators Out There ...Don't Expect Anything Back, Just Go on Creating.. I'm Sure You'll Succeed!
Fun fact: the MrBeast thumbnail at 1:36 was updated recently, Jimmy thought it was too cluttered
My thumbnails still need work. I'm using less words and brighter colors. Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend. Fully view video. 😁
I watch on Mobile
I always read the title. Sometimes the color will grab my attention, but I don't always listen/watch the video.
Awsome thubnail 👍
I watch that my text isn’t blocked by the mobile “time” in the right bottom corner. But I hate the fake or low info… now… still not hit the draw.
GREAT VIDEO. Thank you for sharing. 🎶🎵🌊🐟🚤✈️🤜🤛
Thanks for these amazing tips!
Thanks a lot for this video brother

Hello how are you?? I have posted over 135 videos despite that, nothing happens with my youtube channel.. I don't understand why??

Love the shrink test for thumb nails. I first seen on Nick Nimmin, but you just confirmed it so...Imma use it!
Thanks Nolan! So right on point and right on time! lol I'm making a new thumbnail right now and your vid popped up! Awesome tips! Ok, I'm taking some extra text off right now! lol 😁
Just as I'm getting into it...the video ends! Great tips, need to rewatch to make notes.
I see what you did there with your thumbnail lol…
Thanks, Nolan!
This mean a lot
You spoke straight to the point 👍
i totally have to get better at finding titles that draw curiosity. That’s my goal is to learn how to master titles that draw curiosity!
what software do you guys use to make your thumbnails?
Wow just found your channel ❤️ Thank you for this helpful video ❤️
I need some advice… I am running out of ideas. I need more consistency in uploads but how do you guys generate ideas for videos?
I usually watch on a laptop/pc, rarely on my phone.
I watch on my phone most of the time. Only on the computer at home.
I Don't know what I am doing wrong?!? I have high preforming video, good thumbnail, With 12% CTR but my video is not getting many views?!?
As always great tips and information. Straight forward and to the point. Thx for sharing
How do you shrink the video like u just did?
Very good share my friend

Watching on mobile

Postscript......I just let RUclips make my thumbnails. Thumbnails with girls historically take first place.

Super🙂👍
Look Bald and Bankrupt chanel, he use old camera, very simple thumbnails and titles and he get millions views every video
Watch on IPAD Pro
First to comment
Only 58% on mobile. I guess because your viewers are watching for work and taking notes.
I watch on TV
Is it worth updating OLD content with new thumbnails? Like 6 months old?
im confused, how do you have 2.1 mil subs, but your avg video view is less than 50k?
Def phone
My channel get views but subscribers are not getting how turn views subscriber
And how many video a beginner should upload in one week
aim for at least once a week. From there as much as you probably can handle.
the more you upload the more your viewers expect from you...keep that in mind
@@joshsmilerbasketball thanks brother
thumbnail made me click noooo capppp
Yes!
But what about no impressions (0 impressions) RUclips is not showing your thumbnail to anyone from the start
Which app are you using to record the screen with your webcam at the corner?
obs studio
Great Stuff! Thank you for your video!
Going to post my first ever camping video now left with only thumbnail to create 🥵

Think most would be watching on a phone or a connected TV these days that is for sure.
