A talk in which myself and DimiStudios talk through some of his channel. Lots of juicy insights here, it's primarily audio, but there's some neat screen sharing as well. If you have any questions over today's topics, feel free to reach out via DM or comment. I think this video is only available for 2 weeks, so make sure to download it if you want to keep/save it

I got a new ISP, so we should be good. If you have any questions involving YouTube, stop on by tomorrow from 10:30-11:30 CST

Hey, if you've been hiding out in this community, but you want to have your channel reviewed, live I'll be setting aside some time from 10-11am CST. Or if you have other questions regarding YouTube feel free to come on by

Your algorithm beliefs are costing you views I keep seeing creators blame "the algorithm" for flat numbers. Here's the truth nobody wants to hear: YouTube's foundation hasn't changed in 20 years. So if your videos aren't getting traction, it's probably a content problem, here are the myths that are probably keeping you down. 1) There's no shadowban. Low reach just means people chose not to watch. 2) You're not competing with mass entertainment. The algo isn't throwing your video into some random feed lottery. It's mapping your sub-topic and handing it to the exact people already looking for it. 3) Paid ads won't save organic reach. Different systems, different rules. Throwing money at ads doesn't tell the algorithm "grow this channel organically." 4) Subscribers don't matter as much as you think. (I know we're all on journeys in this community to get to 1,000 but that's not the same as views. YouTube pulls based on what someone wants to watch right now. Not whether they hit subscribe two years ago. Your views aren't hiding. You just need to tweak the basics Good Idea > Good Packaging > Good Video

I think mine's probably Dodford or Dan Mace - working on the script today/tomorrow I'll post it when I'm done for the "Whole Process" series
