How many videos would you recommend uploading initially for a new channel?

Would you just start with one video on a new channel and continue to add as you go?

Or would you have a collection to put up all at once? If so how many would should you have at first?

I keep flip flopping between the idea of waiting to have a few videos down then upload them all at once or just putting them up one by one as I go.

If you could, try and go by a consistent schedule. When I started, I was trying to upload everyday, but the nice people on this site told me I should try an every other day schedule and it's given me enough time to record, edit, and double check every video thoroughly. Try and set a schedule that doesn't put stress on the production process and you'll feel much better about it. Good luck!

I just make a video, edit it and post.

At the start never ever wait before posting as more content gathers more views

Uploading in bulk is a bad idea especially if you're a new youtuber. The first 48 hours and getting watch time after uploading a video is so important for ranking. If you upload more than one video you'll have to promote twice or trice as hard! Any video of mine that doesn't make front page of keywords I targeted, or at least make it to the suggested videos of other popular videos, I generally consider a failure. Of course there's absolutely nothing wrong with failing, as long as you learn from your mistakes and always try to improve. But yeah, in general, your goal should be to create videos that will forever be searched.

Upload as many videos as you like but schedule them for publishing. good idea right? thanks I know .
3 days a week is good enough I think.

Don't do any bulk upload. You'll just be bulking into a void.
Set a consistent schedule, one video every 2-3 days is fine when you're starting.
We started very randomly, one here one there, as there was so much to plan filming with kids, post production, etc.
Be prepared for not much happening for two dozen or so videos.
Just keep uploading past 2 dozen and the algorithm will start to give your channel authority and video rank (assuming you've done seo right).
