My channel has been around for a long time by this point, but I dont really see an awful lot of growth. I post rant/gaming (with the occasional tech) videos and would really like some ways to improve and for you guys on the forums to hopefully give me some growth. Thanks, -Tom

Well I can outline a few things to help you with making your channel page look better!
1) Channel Trailer - Make a channel trailer and set it as the featured video. Not an Amazon Giveaway video please.
2) Links - Add some social Media links instead of just a plain sub counter. Allow people to interact with you through Social Media a bit.
3) Thumbnails - Your Thumbnails look good and I honestly think I'd click that in my featured videos.
4) Playlists - Your playlists are organized good enough and well.
5) Tags - Oh boy. Try adding better tags to your videos. Looking at your 3 most recent videos I see these tags:
  • 100 subscriber special, giveaway, tomdabomb
  • youtube, sub glitch, sub loss, rant, tomdabomb
  • buzzfeed, rant, buzzfeed rant, tom da bomb
These are NOT RANKING. Firstly, putting your channel name in there won't help except if tons of people search for your name every day. The rest are just things people won't be searching on YouTube really. Have you ever searched "100 subscriber special"? No. This is a hard part of youtube, finding out tags for your content that people search for, not many people make videos on and still fit your video.

In general your channel is doing well, just work a bit on your tags and keep working hard! ;)

In my honest opinion, channel reviews won't do much for you since people have different tastes so my advice is to keep making videos that you think are good and enjoyable to make, you'll eventually attract a larger audience.
