    There is NO formula

    It's not as much about luck as it would be about doing the right thing. YouTube is a workplace, for this example, we'll refer to it as a business. You open up an Ice Cream shop in your town, the first of its kind, and you get loads of attention for it. Then someone else opens another shop, and...

    What Are Your Milestones For YouTube?

    The first milestone I'll ever dedicate a video to is 10K, all else is too insignificant to really be proud of (in my view).

    What program do you use to make your thumbnail?

    I use Sony Vegas Pro 13. Add in an image, make the words with outlines for the individual letter and boom, 30 second easy-to-read thumbnail.

    YouTube Views Milestone 1 Million views!

    From what I've heard and seen, the path of YouTube growth goes from sputtery to linear to exponential at certain points. I think you're on route to Type 3.

    Other Milestone The right thing at the right time.

    As far as I am aware of, they should be. I have yet to receive proper analytics on the views.

    Request Had a wee change to how i do things.

    Second. The "Kamikazi Bombing Runs" part of the thumbnail would definitely not be readable in the search results.

    Subscriber Milestone 10,000 Subscribers!

    Shouldn't be hard to find, I did give you the name. It's the one with 30k subs.

    Proof is in the pudding: Being Topical

    You know that thing that they say, you make a video about something that is current, and be on the foot of the trend, and you'll get views. Well, it's true. Last night, I uploaded a video which I will leave unlinked and not mentioned by name. Being the first time I've uploaded in three weeks, I...

    There is NO formula

    This is the problem though, there is no formula that eliminates this factor.

    How often do you upload?

    After what happened with last nights video. I'm going to try to upload daily or once every 2 days.

    There is NO formula

    There is no one-size-fits-all sock for YouTube content creation. Everyone works and creates differently and that ultimately creates a new and unique set of rules for what should and should not be done on ones channel.

    Forums Issue with Chat

    The first two issues, and the last one, are solved with a refresh. Can't say anything for the third, however.

    TOPICS FOR NEW COMMENTARIES?

    It should also be something that you feel something about. You can't talk about the world politics if you either don't have a clue about them, or aren't regularly interested in the happening. In these cases, being properly informed is just as important as being entertaining or intriguing.

    IdeaHub™

    I decided after little thought, and after receiving the green light to post here from the forum administrator, to launch a little utility that people can use to drop off video ideas that they can't use themselves and would rather not go to waste. This Wall of Text is meant to be used by our...

    Dashboard Unverified Earnings - What does this mean?

    I think it just means YouTube is yet to send the earnings to Freedom!, so when YouTube sends the money, that money gets verified as 'real' earnings. It is then sent to you via Paypal as per usual.

    Other Milestone The right thing at the right time.

    A video I decided to post on a channel that is not my regular due to fear of discrimination over the subject has kinda exploded. It's currently netting more in an hour than many of the partners here earn in a month. Milestone: First to explode. Out of the 9 tags I put on that video, 3 of them...

    How long does it take for you to edit a video?

    Massively dependent on the video. A regular vlog of mine might take 2 hours to edit, or it might take 3-4 hours to edit. Depends on what is there and how much of it I want to use. Rendering averages around 1:30 per minute of video, which means 15 minutes of rendering for a 10 minute video.

    Solved Unlinking from Freedom!

    Freedom! actually has the will to unlink faster than 30 days, but as a business, money is money, so they'll wait it out until YouTube does the automatic unlinking after said 30 days. If you were to request to be unlinked sooner and have said request denied, they are not at the wrong.
