    Network Chat moderator.

    I would be up for that opportunity. After today with some buffoons arguing about the way the network is run and one insulting the intelligence of another partner, I think it would be time some chat moderators be added into the mix.

    The prospect of money

    The best people who start a channel start with the goal of becoming something bigger over time while still maintaining the powerful entertainment aspects about their channel that would get them a following of size to begin with. Let's tell a fictional story set in a realistic tone. This is the...

    This is the first rendition of the end slate template I made for my upcoming daily vlogs, however, I am looking to get community feedback on the quality of the product before it launches with the first vlog on Tuesday.

    Comments The partner badge

    The link to apply for a partner badge in the rules page is broken. It might help to get that fixed.

    On desperation

    This is opinion with personal experience and witnessing to back it up. Desperation is something that inflicts us all on YouTube, at least those of us who are small channels with goals and ambition for growth. Let me make this thought train into a story process of sorts. A new YouTuber uploads...

    Forums Grumble grumble.

    I report any and all threads that I see advertising their content, but I think the wait timer between reports should be shrunk a bit to prevent something like this from happening.

    The power of the share

    As all of us should be aware of, sharing on social media can be the biggest way that a channel can take off. But I find that when you share your own videos, it carries a bit of a stigma. On many focus forums and websites, we YouTubers are seen as "oh, it's that guy who makes videos, whatever"...

    Looking for a series name

    I've hatched a plan to create a comedy series similar in structure to Robot Chicken. My question is, if you were to watch a video series where there were 15 or so 20 second skits, what would you want it to be called?

    I never thought I'd have an appreciation in the music by...

    John Lennon. I had "Imagine" stuck in my head last Wednesday, and despite not listening to one of his songs for at least 5 years, I just feel right for the feeling behind his words. [Not my video]

    Uniqueness - Metaphor Alert!

    I'm pretty sure the original post where I wrote this was deleted, good thing I keep a record of all my long rifs. The question posed was on the topic of being unique in the YouTube content creation scene, the creator asking was a gamer. [Warning: Thematic metaphorical sandwiches] There is...

    Noticed by the big guys.

    Everyone gets the feeling, you give a comment to a large YouTuber and the odd time you receive a reply. From my experience asking this question before, it is rare for others to have it happen, but I have been 'noticed' by many of my YouTube favorites. Which big YouTubers have...

    Spoilers?

    Well, viewing through the forum and making a post. I've discovered the option to add a spoiler bar that will negate any massive spoilers to your post to allow it to be enjoyable to others. I will point and example of this. If we can spread the use of this to others, it will make the forum...

    Is YouTube success still possible? Challenge!

    There is a point that you cross that you can say your channel has become at least moderately successful. For this point, we are going to use the number 50,000. 50,000 subscribers and I will ask you this. Is there a single channel that was made in 2015 that has more than 50,000 subscribers now?

    4 ways to wreck your channel

    [Reminder: These are in no particular order] Number 4 is administering fake views and/or subscribers. Not only does YouTube have safeguards in place that remove these things, it is a great sign that you are too desperate for success that you’ll essentially lie about your channel’s...

    VLOG How people should view popularity - Part 2: The calculation.

    Again, I do not generally advocate to the use of forums for the purpose of getting noticed, but since I am marketing towards YouTubers, putting it here makes sense. This is the calculation set to that goes along with the first video that I made for this mini-series. If you need or want to find...

    VLOG How people should be viewing their popularity on YouTube, but aren't!

    I usually advocate against posting on forums like this, but this exception is brought to you by the fact that this video is marketed towards YouTubers, making this the best possible place for the video to be shared. This video examines how subscriber counts and total view counts mean nothing...

    Killed and resurrected.

    I just took an entire new swing to the channel. Recently I made a post about my "Day for a Day" channel challenge, and this is tied almost-kinda-completely to it. The channel that I am refitting used to be my gaming channel, and now I've gone ahead and deleted all of the old gaming videos. All...
