Hi all, I have been trying my hand at content creation for about 6 months now and I could use some advice. I won’t give my name or channel or anything as I’m pretty sure that’s considered advertising and is against the rules. Anyways, I upload my ladder matches with live commentary at the GM level, I play all 3 races. I’ve been doing this for about 6 months. While I have seen steady growth, it is painfully slow at around +1 sub a week give or take.

In those 6 months I have worked really hard on creating cool thumbnails, attention grabbing (but not clickbait) titles, and most importantly of all good gameplay and commentary. However, I have only gained around 50 subs in half a year and my viewership is very chaotic. Most weeks I will average 5-20 views a video, then every 6 weeks I’ll randomly get a video shoot over 1k, then back to 5-20 views. I’m not sure if youtube is just not showing my videos or if people just don’t want to watch me or like what I’m doing.

I guess what I’m wondering is a few things: how willing are you guys to check out new channels? Do you browse youtube for starcraft or do you just stick to your favorite channels when they upload new stuff? (For me its Harstem and Mana for example) What type of stuff do you like to see in regards to SC2 on youtube?

If you got this far, I thank you greatly, I appreciate it and hope you have a great day
