How To Increase Click-Through Rate For New YouTubers

Look, it comes across as a bit intense but it’s really important that new YouTubers hear that… You do not matter.

The sooner you understand how little you matter, the sooner you can actually start growing your channel… which is ironic because to be a YouTuber you need to be narcissistic enough to believe you’re worth watching

Let me explain… when your thumbnail and title appear on the homepage…. How many people actually recognize your face that you plastered in the thumbnail? Why would someone click on your vlog trip to the beach? Or episode 69 of your five nights at Freddie's playthrough?

So one of the best pieces of advice I can give you is to separate your own personality and understanding of the content, and then instead put yourself in the shoes of someone who has no idea who you are, what your content is about, or anything.

How To Grow Your YouTube Subs With Community Polls

A major secret when it comes to appealing to the masses, and beginning to grow the audience your content goes out to is actually the Community Posts tool on YouTube… specifically I am in love with the Community Poll tools.

I’ve been using Community Polls here on SSN for over 2.5 years now, I post polls to understand you, your interests, troubles, and it often helps me make content more targeted to your interests…

But it also builds huge impressions on the channel, and after snowballing years of polls back to back, you can go from getting 100 votes, 200 votes, all the way up to 6000 votes per poll… now before anyone says anything, you can scroll back I was using community polls BEFORE Spiffing Brit released his video on how broken and overpowered they are.

Once you have all those votes consistently, you can start adding in your videos that match the Poll topic to boost their views, because a lot of these polls don’t just go to subscribers but also non-subscribers who are interested in the topics the polls cover.

The style of this video is similar to Alpha Gaming and VidIQ in parts. A large influence on this series has come from content creators like Filmbooth and Nutty.

    As a small Gaming Channel I really feel the difference when I can post 2 videos a week for a while... It REALLY boosts them to be seen by more people ❤
  • @badgamerwyatt
    It can definitely feel overwhelming to try and come up with something brand new that no one’s EVER done before, so I loved the mention of “if you just made someone smile or breathe out of their nose a little harder”. That’s the small goal I aim for at the moment since I work a a lot and it’s hard to find time to get crazy with ideas or edits. For now, I just want to make people smile or laugh the way the creators I watch do for me! 😊
  • @robertjr8474
    i think ur the only small youtuber/streamer "coach" that actually keeps putting out new info and perspective instead of just making the same video over and over again, thank you for caring about us little guys

    True story sitting there and analysing the videos and your respective benchmarks. I took a day, did the same with my thumbnails, did the same thing a few months ago on another review channel; was pretty great, helped me with construction and flow.
