Hi Everyone, nice to meet you all. I have decided to push my YT game in 2026 and one of the things that really get me down is the thumbnail creation. I am not creative by design and I don't want to pay and wait for a freelancer to come up with a thumbnail. I was thinking of using AI all the way through, so far my experiments are positive but I am under 100 subs so the data set is minimal. Is there anybody out there testing on a bigger channel? Thanks y'all

My channel is only a month old (but I’m in it to win it). ;) VidIQ is offering 55% off a monthly subscription forever (including Live Feed). Do y’all think it’s worth it? I’ve been using the free version for titles, descriptions, and looking at outlier videos, but that’s as far as I’ve gotten. I use chatgpt (and myself) for title ideas and then see how they score with VidIQ. It’s been helpful (although views are of course low at this stage), but it’s also time consuming to do it that way and they only give one set of title suggestions per day with the free version. I think Alexa also recommended comparing both VidIQ and Tube Buddy keyword analytics, but I haven’t gotten that far. I’ve also seen several YT teachers recommend Descript, but I don’t even know if that offers title/keyword help. I’d love to hear your experience. TIA!

Hello everyone, My name is Shekinah. I am a middle school math teacher. I create videos on lessons for elementary and middle school math topics. The video lessons are good for students, parents of young children who need a refresher so they can help their child, and teachers - as they can also benefit from using strategies shown in the videos.
