Yo-Yo Videos

I started my channel near the end of 6th grade with my friend cus he suggested it but he was going to hold the channel and i would just send him the videos. Whenever I ask him to post a video tho, he names it wrong, he always forgets to post stuff no matter what, and the comments are constantly disabled. Imma just get an insta

Suggestions from a totally mediocre yoyo content creator with less than 4000 subs:

  • Do not beg for subs, a “please subscribe” at the beginning of each video is fine, but don’t rely on people’s charity. They will only subscribe if they’re interested in what you bring them;

  • You only have 19 public videos and a lot of shorts. Full videos are the ones that really bring subs, shorts are only good if you can find an original niche to rehiterate with thousands of variants (see godspeed, dna with whatever, emoji challenge, etc…) or as teasers for a full video, this brings me to the next point

  • Find your style and pursue it: do you like making tutorials, reviews, vlogs, edits? Learn how to shoot, edit and color grading. Learn how to upload algorithm-friendly videos (e.g. add a description to the video and scrap all the hastags, they don’t really work on youtube). Do you like making flashy shorts? Cool, find your niche, open an IG and a TikTok page and share your shorts everywhere.

  • Don’t be afraid of share video links on other media (IG, FB, Forum, Reddit, etc…) you wil get a lot of traffic from external links.

  • Give yourself a schedule and stick with it, upload regularely and leave some days between uploads (said the one that doesn’t upload a heck since months lol)

  • Ultimately just create videos for fun, focus on building a community, engage with your subs, ask them what they want to see. Having a friendly community is much more satisfying than getting 1000 subs.

Hey, I don’t think calling yourself mediocre is fair! You’re one of my go-to content creators for good vibes and quality tutorials! I learned some of your Slack GT elements, flow elements etc, and plan to learn most, if not all, of your tutorials eventually. Credit where credit is due! <3

Also yeah, the rest of your points are absolutely correct! If my Instagram account went down from 3k to below 1k, but I still had an amazing community with lots of support, I would take it over a ton of followers with no substance, care or interactions. As long as you do it for the right reasons, success of varying degrees will follow in due time.

Honestly 3-4K is a large majority of the online global YoYo community. 500 captures most of the habitually online folks. Any follower ship in the 10k+ range is capturing folks outside of the yoyo community.

I’m not saying there are less than 10k yoyoers in the world but there are definitely less than 10k on socials all the time paying attention to content. Things also do get split up a bit geographically specifically when languages differ and that’s mostly algorithms for these platforms assuming you want content in your speaking language

All that to say. 3k followers in normal world is meh but 3k in YoYo is capturing a large majority of the community and makes you notable.
