hello, my channel is demonetized last nov.4 bcuz of reused content then i start to change with a commentary for fair used even if im shy.

1.Started my channel late 2021 made like 15 videos. 2020 I made like 120 videos. All in all, my total watchtime from a year plus of making vids and posting consistently every 2 or 3 days was 19k total views and 700 hours of lifetime watch hours. I almost gave up multiple times, but I always asked myself what would I do if I stopped KZfaq, you're just putting your opinion out there. That's what kept me going. February 2023 I had a video do 300k views as at the time of commenting and another about to do 100k. 2 videos gave me watchtime and subs I didn't have in a year plus of making content. Do not give up. You never know when your big break will come. Find a content you enjoy making and do it. 5 cheersK

What I've learned is I feel there is some secret formula to these titles and thumbnails...Big text (less than 3 words), something eye-catching to go along with the text that makes you wonder... certain thumbnails I post just naturally do better, and I've learned to create almost all of my thumbnails in that similar way and now most of the videos do pretty well. There's definitely a trick to thumbnails that is learned with time!

@szushycats 2 жыл бұрын

Netflix’s data said that there is 2 huge factor to their thumbnails for shows. 1 is faces with emotion, 2 is having maximum 3 main subject on the thumbnail. I looked at your thumbnails and I think yours look like they use the second factor :D Btw I think the red cars and colour makes your thumbnails kind of uniq and more recognisable (as my first impression) What do you think of my observation? :)

And you actually pointed out a few things I do which are big mistakes.. taking 5 or less minutes to make a title and a thumbnail, because you get so tired from recording and editing a video (for hours usually), and spend little time on what is important!

In the thumbnail, well it's very oversimplified. I just took the screenshot of the error I got, zoomed in a lot so that only the error gets in focus and in center and not the other things like desktop icons or taskbar. Finally I put an angry meme png image in the left side. So yeah, overall it's an error message with meme face only but still it's views are increasing second by second every time.

Yeah, I am trying to get better with my thumbnails. I think it’s because as a viewer, I look more at a title than a thumbnail. I need to put myself in the audience’s shoes. I did actually manage to hit the daily thumbnail limit you talked about in another video. I just changed one video’s thumbnail but uploaded two future scheduled videos and gave them thumbnails. However, once I tried to give a live stream a new thumbnail it wouldn’t let me until the next day, so I guess 3 is the limit. I never thought that would happen to me.

As someone whos been doing KZfaq for 2 years on and off there are a couple things that I think are very important. Consistency is key, find yourself a schedule. I've found that biweekly or once a month is the sweet spot for video uploads but it could depend on your content and energy. Niche is definitely important; as much as you want to do what you want it could be oversaturated leading to low views and engagement. Uniqueness; just like the last point if there's nothing that shines in your content compared to everyone else doing the same genre then it will be endlessly harder to get noticed, this was one thing that worked for me as no person in my niche did content of my caliber and style in terms of quality. Thumbnails as said in the video are very important, I usually take a picture of whatever is in my video and try not to make clickbait. If you follow these tips and put good work into your videos I can assure you that growth will definitely come your way!

Great suggestions for small creators like us. I do follow some of them, like: I record the complete tutorial and then make the intro video in which I explain what I am going to teach. I do spend a lot of time making thumbnails.

I think a big thing people are afraid to do Is change thumbnails and titles after the video drops. If you're video starts poorly don't be afraid to experiment. You have nothing to lose

I really appreciate this content. Our channel has been growing lately and I want to start making better thumbnails and intros even more now that I've watched this. Our content is pretty niche as you have to 1. Love dogs and 2. Be interested in the barkless kind. I have often equated watching our videos to sitting and watching someone's home movies. It's a real challenge to make it interesting for the viewer. I really appreciate the tips to help improve things.

HI Rob, you gave us two thumbnails to choose and our reason for it. I choose the B option because the thumbnail is simple, clear and straight forward. But the other one has a lot of words and I don't like reading too much and I would just skip if I see it on KZfaq

I guess it's really hard. I have a college degree and try to do a lot of research when also using my own experience to make self-improvement videos for young men. That is something a younger me would value a lot. I have long history of making videos as this was always my passion but when I see the few views my videos get, I kinda ask myself if it's really a wise thing to do and if I'm not just wasting time. Trust the process?

The way I see it, you have to think of it as a journey for the viewer, as you mentioned, Rob, but between them first seeing the video thumbnail, going all the way to the moment they finish the entire video. Our goal as creators looking for growth should be to make that journey as easy as possible for the audience, and making it very simple to reach the end of that video for most viewers.

KZfaq always favors the big ones, small channels have a huge difficulty in growing the community, especially those who don't have someone to recommend. mine is over 3 years old and I only have 118 subscribers, I already had a video of mine with a 70% success rate and youtube didn't even recommend it in the searched topic.

The consistency is very difficult for me since I have other things going on in my life, but I love to talk about things that interests me. Which is movies, therapy, stories, anything where I feel like I can talk or do voice overs even. Maybe I'm just not that entertaining because I don't yell or sound excited lol. But idk, I don't get much feedback so idk what it is I'm doing wrong

This is so helpful, I am guilty of going straight into introducing myself which is possibly why my views are so poor!

Hello VidIQ, I want to know about one thing. Currently in my KZfaq analytics it shows, impressions- 2.5K ⬆️846%, impressions CTR- 16.7% ⬆️102% and KZfaq search 83.4% and every other traffic sources are maximum 4.6% or below that. I want to understand what does this data represent? What I need to change, keep, or improvise? It would be better if you can tell me about this. I still trust your team and love you

It’s hard being a small content creator, my thumbnails are just plain and simple, so no one is gonna click on it, but I should take some time on my next video in making my thumbnail instead of just getting an image from the video and making it the thumbnail, but limited on my resources so I gotta use what I have

This Video is helpful for someone like me who is not very computer savvy. I’m 87 and decided to have a go at putting a video on KZfaq on how to create multicolored text using Nero Platinum. The video is crude. I did get 80 views in 2 months. One of my mistakes is I didn’t realize thumbnails were important. Didn’t even bother making one. Just used the one selected by KZfaq. It’s never too old to learn, so it’s back to the drawing board and have a go at making a better thumbnail.
