You're gonna get the best feedback on your videos, not from us on this forum but from your analytics. A lot of people think they have great content Go to analytics > audience retention > relative audience retention. If your videos are above the average then you're making better videos than the average YouTuber. If you're below average then you're making worse videos than the average YouTuber. If you're significantly below average it's going to be virtually impossible to become successful.

Relative audience retention is the ultimate reality check.

And to save you from going into a panic if you haven't looked at your audience retention before. It's really good. Don't change anything. Just be patient. And by patient I mean 6 months to a year. Your channel might take off before than but I'd be really surprised if it didn't take off after a year.

Is the relative audience retention being compared to every youtubers in all niche or is it being compared to the same type of content? Thanks in advance!!
 
TBH your content and personality is comedic and entertaining, I personally don't see anything wrong with the subject matter. I would say that you could benefit from getting a a friend to help film to offer more dynamic angles when filming and maybe even doing your videos in public places like parks, library, restaurants, etc.(I think this will help shock value, maybe even disturb the peace a bit will add to the funny) all in all you are doing well keep up the good work.

I also have a review my channel post > http://yttalk.com/threads/review-thefreshbiz-help-me-out.187570/ check it out and let me know your thoughts

Also you have an outro on at the end of your video but it could benefit from some annotations that redirect the content to your most recent video.

It's being compared to every YouTuber. What it would be really nice to see is how you stack up against other YouTubers in your target audience. For your content - I'm guessing it's aimed at kids 2-6. I suspect on average that entire vertical has lower audience retention based on the fact that kids are more likely to be click happy. I'm speculating though so don't know that for sure. So if your audience retention is showing as above average then you're really crushing it.
 
I think youre pretty funny man.

1.) How is my growth for a channel that has started 6 weeks ago? My current statistics are:
177 Subscribers
4,300+ views
361/5 Like to Dislike ratio overall on my videos
697 views on my most popular video, followed by 555 and 531 respectively.

It takes time for YouTube to start sharing you. Promote the crap out of yourself. Comment on funny videos. But dont ask them to watch yours. Say something like omg that is great (say something specific about the video) thats just like one of my videos or something... Just by commenting something clever even people will check out your channel.

Maybe consider posting more often if you can. Just at first to get a lot more videos out there to be watched. But try not to sacrifice your quality to do it.

2.) After you watched my content, what advice can you offer me on my technique?
Personally I think it is pretty decent. What program are you using to edit? Make sure you get good sound that is KEY!

3.) Am I missing any important social medias?
I dont see any links, go look at my channel and you will see I post all my links in every description, also they are at the top of my channel. Go to the about page and edit your links.

4.) Are my thumbnails intriguing?
Some are good, others are meh.
5.) Your personal advice for starting motivated?
Advice for staying motivated? HAVE FUN! and dont let this be your only job. It needs to be fun. To make money at it takes years and hundreds of thousands of views. 200 views per video even if you upload everyday will not cut the mustard.

6.) Do you believe my personality, image and content is unique? Do you believe, with work and dedication, I have what it takes to become the next big YTer?

I think you're pretty good. You're funny. But the content doesn't appeal to "most" of YouTube IMHO. That isnt necesarily a bad thing. Find a comedian like yourself and see what and how they post and then comment the crap out of their videos, maybe beg for a collab.

I think thats what you need is some good collabs to get you more screen time!

Thanks for all the kind words too! I'm glad a lot of you believe in me, truthfully, my growth has been doing a lot better since this post. I'm now at 189 subscribers. Hopefully I can hit 250 by next month and 500 for christmas. Thanks for all the support.

Yea I have really low audience retention rate overall. The average percentage view for my channel is 37% at the moment. For relative audience retention for individual video, most of the ones I click on curved just a little bit above on some part and curve just a little bit below the average line on other parts throughout the length of the video. Do you know what is the average percentage view for most channel or what is consider good?

It depends on length and the category of videos you're doing. You probably should sync up with one of the big kids networks. I'm guessing they have all that data. If nothing else it give you some people to network with.

Yes I been thinking about why those big channel join network lately. What can a network provide for me that I'm lacking is the question I been asking. They just take such a big percentage.
