I've seen some guides on how to increase your visibility on Youtube and get views and subscribers, but all that **** seems like a huge hassle, and I don't know how committed I'm going to be to really building my own channel. Nobody here would happen to have a channel of their own with any kind of following who could give me some pointers would they?
Some of the **** I've seen is creating custom thumbnails for your videos to grab a potential viewer's attention, but they never really seem to give any useful advice on how exactly to do it. Also, it's been recommended to go on Reddit and become part of the Let's Play community, but I already spend way too much time on this forum to really feel like committing to another one, and I couldn't just spam my channel without establishing myself (which I understand completely, given this site's own rules about that.) And creating a "trailer" on your homepage to draw in viewers is likewise kind of nebulous. I guess I should check out other Youtubers' pages to get some idea of what to do, but all this **** is kind of overwhelming.
I'm not trying to be the next Pewdiepie or anything, but it would be nice to make to at least a thousand subscribers, if only to get some regular kudos for my rampant ego. To say nothing of making a little side money from advertising, as that seems to be the number where Youtube actually takes an interest in you. But I'd be thrilled just to make it to a hundred subs.
