I recently posted a video about a new microphone I bought to improve my audio for YouTube videos. I borrowed elements from similar successful videos in terms of the title and thumbnail…
But alas. 50 views later, I’m thinking that YouTube has forgotten that I like to talk about YouTube (maybe because I haven’t talked about it in a while!)
Now between this channel and a few others, I have published over 100 videos to YouTube in the last two years. Some do better than others, that’s just how it goes!
It can be frustrating when you think a video will really resonate with viewers, but then it fails to pop off as expected.
If you’re new to YouTube and still trying to figure it out, I made a FREE Skool community just for you called the NewTubers YouTube Collective! If you want to check it out, visit:
One question you may be asking yourself is, “do I need to pick a niche right away?” And there are two main camps here:
1) No, just start making videos and your niche will develop over time, and
2) Yes, having a clear niche in mind is the best way for the YouTube algorithm to help you find an audience
And the truth is… both are correct. 🤷♂️
If you don’t have a lot of experience with filming videos, editing, making thumbnails, writing titles, and all the other little skills that go into being a YouTube, AND you aren’t sure about your niche? Then I say don’t worry about your niche just yet. You really just need to get started and experience what it takes to create and upload videos start to finish. Experiment with different video topics, different audio/video recording setups, different formats (ex. Talking Head, Video Essay, Faceless Videos, Video Podcast, Street Interviews, etc) and figure out what you like making. Every video you finish and publish to YouTube is a repetition, and if you get some reps in, you will improve.
Now if you have a clear niche in mind, I 100% agree the second camp above, that starting with a clear niche will help you grow an audience faster, but there are a lot of examples of creators developing their niche over time and still succeeding because A) they grew into a niche eventually, and B) they didn’t give up, they kept publishing more videos and improving.

Here is a bag of peanuts. Now that I have your attention, I need your advice! We have made videos about:
- Sales strategy - Homemade Coldbrew - YouTube and how to get started as a creator - Mardi Gras / Japan / Travel - Book summaries - Product reviews - and more

Is your attention span broken… or just out of practice? 📚❌📱🧠
This video hit way too close to home. Once an avid reader, the Mark Manson struggles to finish a single book—and he’s not alone.
Turns out, between dopamine hits from our phones 📲, the paradox of endless choices 🤯, and modern burnout 🔥, our brains are being trained to skim, swipe, and scroll… not read deeply.
And here’s the twist: it’s not just TikTok or newsfeeds. It’s AI 🤖. When tools like ChatGPT can instantly deliver distilled knowledge, it gets harder to justify slogging through 300 pages to get to the good stuff.
But there’s hope! ✅ Digital detox blocks ✅ Cozy reading rituals ✅ Tiny daily reading goals ✅ Accountability through book clubs
If you miss the feeling of finishing a great book and thinking, “Wow, that was worth it,” this one’s worth a watch.

I’ve been working on something for a while, and it’s finally ready. 🎬
If you’ve been trying to figure out how to actually hit 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours, this is the roadmap I wish I had when I started.
It’s called the NewTubers Skool Course, and here’s what’s inside:
8 modules. 27 lessons. No fluff.
✅ How to pick a niche that’s profitable AND fun, so you’re not burned out by month three
✅ My favorite brainstorming method that fills up a full year of video ideas in one sitting
✅ The exact gear I use, from a $15 lav mic to my go-to wireless setup
✅ How to structure videos so people actually watch to the end
✅ The thumbnail and title formulas that get clicks without feeling like clickbait
✅ YouTube SEO broken down in plain English
✅ How to read your analytics like a dashboard, not a spreadsheet of confusion
✅ Multiple income streams you can start building before you even hit monetization
Whether you’re filming your first video or you’re 20 videos in and wondering why nothing’s clicking, this was built for you. 💪

Tbh, I was shocked to see this…
I recently posted a video about a new microphone I bought to improve my audio for YouTube videos. I borrowed elements from similar successful videos in terms of the title and thumbnail…
But alas. 50 views later, I’m thinking that YouTube has forgotten that I like to talk about YouTube (maybe because I haven’t talked about it in a while!)
