The Struggle on YouTube

I use Twitter mostly. I post my videos on Twitter and my social media platforms really aren't doing the trick. I guess I could me more active on Twitter and see if that helps. Maybe I can post more than just videos. Thanks for the advice! It really helped!
Yeah you shouldn't give up. Keep going for it. I would think that we've all been there at some point. Unfortunately success doesn't come over night unless your lucky. Keep posting those videos and working hard and success will come to you. That's a mantra not just for YouTube but for life as well.
Your not alone. This is something common with yotubers. You think your on a roll getting subscribers and fans but then you hit a sudden downhill slope and your struggling to get up. You just have to beleive in yourself.
It's never gonna be easy to succeed anywhere, especially YouTube now given that everybody is doing it, which is partially why I gave up trying to succeed and instead now I just do YouTube for the fun of it, it's creatively fulfilling to me and even if I don't get the reception of Markiplier or PewDiePie or The Creatures or whoever, I'm still proud of the work I do and the response (however little it may be) that I get from them. I don't know if that'll help your perspective, I have also been doing YouTube for a while, since 2012 actually, but only recently I decided to start fresh and I feel a lot better about it - a clean slate as it was haha
You are maybe so close to success, so don't give up. Your next video could be the video that gives you the big break through so just continue working hard. I started to grow at a faster rate now after a few months just by not giving up and continue doing what I love, so do not look at sub count for now just continue to make great videos. The subs and views will come in due time.
Friend, you are not alone. I've pretty much tried, and failed doing different things on youtube. The struggle really is real, especially when something like this is being done. But you have to remind yourself that you have to go to a point where people will go back, but you have to keep going. (Shia Labeouf moment) And think big, my friend. Don't think about putting a dent on the community. Think bigger, go farther, become greater. All your hard work will eventually pay off. It may take more than a while, but just keep believing, and keep the vision in your head.

Though the tide is rising for the established channels, there is a chance to get out there and be seen, I have not achieved the formula, but all Algorithms have a straight forward solution that will allow you to stand out in the ebbing tide. When that is determined I will apply it, and see where it leads, I am starting another channel specifically for IRL Vlogging
It will be my first year anniversary on youtube soon so you could say i'm still a newbie but i think that the best you can do is have fun with the videos you upload and if you get to a point that you don't enjoy making them anymore just quit. I follow that myself i upload because i enjoy it and of course i would like to become big on youtube but i only make videos because i enjoy it.
