This has really helped. I've been feeling really disheartened lately – with my channel dropping and youtube just showing me negative stats. Just used the publish day filter and actually, my past 90 days are BETTER than the overall channel. So I'm guessing the one viral video I have is starting to drop, but the later videos are drawing in more of the right people. Thanks!
I have 3 mill views and 8k subs. What’s going on?
These were excellent guys!
I'm having opposite problem than what you're talking about at 5:00… I have lots of subscribers who aren't watching newer videos. I'm getting less than 1% to about 2% of my subs count watching a typical video. When I started, I was typically getting way more views than I had subscribers
2000views in full week… lul 😀
Tried all tips and tricks. Algorithm aka people controlling content, discriminate against channels like mine. Best advise is just get a normal job.
For me I had to really study those analytics, after which I suddenly realized i was doing the wrong content. Made a huge pivot, and my channel went from about 600 views a day to 300k views a day. Sure helped.
I almost thought for a second you were gonna say Dude Perfect. LOL

Love the NYC hat. Big fan of this channel. Its definitely helped over the last 12 months. Please keep it up!
I guess I'm still to small cause what I get is "Not enough eligible audience data to show this report"
even at 90 days. hope to change things as I post more.
Honestly think I watch too much youtube 🙂
Thanks sir

I really appreciate that you're trying to help people.
That being said, I've spent the last three years "optimizing," "calling to action," "branding" (yeah, I bought "Primal Branding" and read it) and "finding my niche" on the channel I hoped would make something of itself (not this one). The only time I saw any growth is when I accidentally started an argument – on Facebook of all places – by expressing an opinion on something. I now have a Grand Total of 127 subscribers and get 13 or so views on each video, if that. I do not get enough traffic to even HAVE analytics, let alone be able to interpret or react to them.
I might even be convinced to pay for your services, but let's face it; why? I'm too small. No amount of branding or strategies is going to make my content more watchable. I have to get creative and figure out how to connect with viewers. I have to get more comfortable in front of the camera. Figure out how to get them to watch my content in the middle of watching all the other more popular channels in my niche.
Thanks for these podcasts, I’ve been binge listening back 3 years of podcast for the second time. Feels like I know Tim, Lennon and D’laina. Sad Lennon is no longer here.
Thank you – this was very interesting. I'm going to put these to work right away. I found myself rewinding frequently and following along in my channel. Awesome!
Thanks for this!
One topic that’s hard to find on YouTube is tips regarding how to grow a kids channel. I hope one day you will make a video on tips and ideas regarding a kids channel😀
i ship these two does any else also ship these two
I recommend skipping all the chit chat at the beginning. I clicked off because I don’t have any interest in idle banter. I’ll check back on future videos to see if I can watch them all the way through.
I don't really see how groups can help. It wasn't actually explained.
Hi
Hello 👋 thanks
Very helpful, great job 👏

Cool Video 💞💓💗
I wish everything was so aboveboard on this platform but there are too many examples of manipulation. I had been experiencing a consistent growth of 10K subscribers a year for four years. Because of an exchange I had with a commenter bullying another content creator in the Spring of 2019, that person was able to dox me and find my main channel (this one). They addressed me with this user name which means they had inside access to someone from YouTube or Google. Ever since then my growth has been severely curtailed. I should be closer to 80K subs than 50K. My videos are not be recommended as much and that cuts into my views substantially. Before Covid I communicated with people at YouTube about my issues and I had been given weak excuses that blame me for loss of viewership. Not true. It was very much tied into that confrontation and I could see how it was like I was being punished. I wish someone who is a good person working at YouTube or has connections to them could help me get whatever blocks are on my channel. 😔
Just had this show up on my homepage and I'm not subbed. I listen to the podcast religiously though. Nice to see what Tim and D'Laina actually look like!
Thank you guys for making this! I'm trying to grow as a content creator & it's been a challenge for sure. 🙏😌
I really like these open conversations. They really help with me home decor channel growth

The first time I’ve ever gotten to review a video that should expect quite a few views where I am in the group of the first 100 ha ha
