20,000 Subscribers

Exactly 6 months ago I published my first video on YouTube and today I'm thrilled to say that: We reached 20,000 Subscribers! 🤩

The Journey:

It's been a very, very interesting journey.
I said at the beginning of the year that "2020 will be all about my YouTube Channel", and it was (and still is)...

Over the past 4-5 months I uploaded over 180 videos and Live Streams.

I had days with multiple Live Streams (3-4) and even one day with 8 Live Stream, covering different topics.

One day I uploaded 24 different videos (one video every hour) covering a huge topic.

I've spent probably hundreds of hours learning about "how YouTube works" and applying all of these tips&tricks to my videos.

All-in-all it is a fun journey and now we are closer to the big goal of 100,000 Subscribers ! 💜

      Thanks bud!

      Well... You said you’re jumping on YouTube since I started 😂

        I know man ;/
        I'm a joke.

        1. 1

          Haha, you are not a joke man! You just had something better to do probably 😄

    It seems like a lot of work. How did you manage this ? Were you burned out ?

    1. 1

      It was a lot of work indeed, but I enjoyed it.

      I wasn’t quite burned out, but I had some days when I didn’t post and just... relaxed ☺️

    Congratulations Florin! Have you thought about putting these videos on a website with transcripts? It could help you get some additional free search traffic!

    1. 1

      Interesting. I have not 😄

      1. 1

        You should! Having a social media following is great but it’s rented space. Your ultimate goal should be sending people to your own website and collecting email addresses 😉

            Everyone has their obsession 😂

        2. 1

          Yeah... I know 😆

          Harder to do though...

  8. 1

    Congrats! Well deserved, I checked your channel and it's awesome!

  11. 1

    Congratulations!🎉 The amount of content you've been able to churn out is insane!

    I'd love to help you test and optimise your thumbnails so you can get more views and grow faster!

    More than happy to run the first experiment for free!

    If you're interested just shoot me a DM on twitter @thumblytics and say you are from IH 😊

      I DMed you! Thank you!

    Incredible, good job! Just out of interest - does it matter whether you have a large amount of videos with relatively fewer views, or fewer videos but more views per video?

    It seems you've taken the first approach, did you do that on purpose, or did it just happened to go that way?

    1. 2

      It doesn't matter the number of videos but the number of views.

      I took the "quantity" approach and I hope they'll get picked and get more views 😊
