Some days I wake up and I see that a YT video I’ve published has got 6 views

It might as well be zero

Or at least it feels like that

Lots of time, energy, and startup capital going into my podcast, and you get traction like that

Fuck

So depressing

But then I realise: it’s not YT that is the problem, it’s me…

My content just isn’t good enough

This is the market talking back to me

So

Figure it out

Find a way

Hone your craft

Never give up

Onwards friends!

Ps - I put way more time into Nostr personally, and I can feel everyday it improving as an experience, with all the feedback I get from the notes I publish (it’s still small scale, but I believe very high signal)

Your contents awesome it’s just a few layers deep for most and at the present moment the majority would rather live in denial than know the truth.

Be the Change you want to see in the World. It can be a bit lonely though is my experience. GM!!

GM ☕️ I appreciate you.🧡

There are a lot of content creators on there and the algorithms do favour certain subjects and narratives....

Some videos just don't hit even if we liked them. Often times it's worth cutting and changing and reuploading it

Gm! Never give up, i feel the same about that, but never give up my friend, just walk to the future! Your true fans will support you always ✨😎🫂🌞

I'd be far more inclined to listen to a podcast on fountain than a YT video.

Never. Say. Die. Just do what you know, deep down, is what YOU want to do. Remain authentic to your own voice and - with time - the audience will come. It sucks when you are in building mode. Trust me. I know all too well.

GM! Have a nice day!

YouTube is the modern man’s boobtube - it forces you to adhere to algorithms so they can monetize the eyeballs. If your content appeals to anyone beyond an 8th grade education it probably won’t get much traction. Focusing here will probably pay off more in the future than any views on a platfor...

If you love it then keep doing it

Through pain we grow. Growth is positive so is that your pain you are feeling. You’re just getting better&stronger keep going nobody can stop you. 🧡🫂💜 is the way 🤙🏼

Feel you man 🧡

It's kind of why you have to do this sort of stuff for yourself. It's often thankless work & the value you get from it is hard to justify the effort to keep going sometimes. Few remember those who gave up. Gotta have a strong "Why".

Maybe it is not content but the reach?

Packaging is such a huge part of it, as I’m sure you know. Jay Clouse of Creator Science has a couple good videos about this and writes about it. Basically you come up with both the idea AND the packaging before your shoot. So you might make your thumbnail before your shoot. If the goal is to get...

Never give up! Builders develop their original craft that find a method for connecting with the world. Bitcoin strengthens you. If we ever want to achieve a Bitcoin Freedom Society, then each of us have to go through this painful process of building concepts that work for the next generation to soli...

Bootstraping in the current attention economy is hard AF so do not give up. I have just never heard about your work, it looks solid. So reach might be a problem. I will listen more and give you an honest feedback! Improve, iterate, keep the good stuff coming.

Don't give up! I know exactly what you feel, but I'also sure that you're doing the right thing.. Those six people may seem like a small number to you, but if you had touched the strings of just one of them, you would have achieved a great goal and time will prove it to you.. even the first chypher...

The market is a brutal but honest teacher. That self-awareness and drive to improve is what separates the builders from the dreamers

Here’s my two sats: I know nothing about Youtube SEO. But I do know that SEO is VERY important when you are trying to get views. No matter if it’s Youtube, Google, Facebook, or whatever. So, I am not sure that “the problem” is the actual content. For example, you look like a normal human ...

Good attitude! Also YT promotion is unfortunately really bad for long videos but fairly decent for YT shorts.
