600 Subscribers!

[PrettyGamer]

I also got my 600 too today.. Haven't have an Instagram account maybe I should try one too.. thanks for the share.. Not more on sub4sub now.. My genre is not vlogs so not good for my channel.. although I think it will fluctuate too because I rejected most of those who asked for sub for sub.. so i won't be making a milestone announcement..

For instagram, I definitely recommend it. See what #tags are active for your content, then engage with people around those tags. We have found many have sent private messages saying they have subbed our channel and like the videos.

Hi Congratulations on 600. I have 17!!! Im really not good with this social media stuff and finding it really hard to get views/subscribers for my channel.

Will try to apply some of the advice you have given!

I think you can create with FB or with an email address. Once you make it, link it to your FB page and Twitter account, also Tumblr if you have that, and it will auto post.

I can give you a format I have learned while requesting for people..

This is like when you are going and inviting people with your same niche..

It's like

Hi (the name of the person you are inviting)

I wrote to you because I have seen you (somewhere where you saw him/her, it can be one of the biggest people on your niche, ine with the same interest) and I am also one who is new in this genre. I make let's play and some vlogs whenever I hit a special and I keep uploading (your upload schedule) every day. You might also be interested with the games I play. Care to check it out.

Cheers,
(your name)

People will tend to feel they are valuable because you wrote a direct message to them.. I does this on youtube, twitter and facebook and it really works..

Thank you for this advice PrettyGamer. I will use this. Im not really good with youtube yet as it takes me soooooooooooooooooooo long to do 1 video!!! Then its so depressing when i don't get any views! I am beginning to realise that the social media aspect and putting work into that side is more important than the youtube video content itself!

True ~ to some extent. What we have seen in the last 6 weeks on social/YT, is that it's a balancing act. You have to get a few good video up, then engage with potential viewers across social, then you get the next set of video, then engage with the previous views and connect on social with new viewers. Its a cycle - if you just focus on social and get followers across the various networks, but don't have good content for them, then they won't stick around. And if you spend all your time on good content without the social aspects, then its like shouting at the top of your voice inside an abandoned missile silo in Siberia ~ no one will hear you. You have to strike a balance between the two ~ sort of like a ying and yang.

Oh yeah but you should make more great contents first before you advertise them so people will notice it once your done advertising.. I made lots of videos when I started advertising. It's okay if there's still no views in the beginning start it first within the person you truly know. When you start building your channel then that's the time you have to advertise or else your request on inviting them to check your channel out will be wasted due to having no content.. I'll go check out your channel..
