Should I try for a network?

[James Doppler]

Should I try and partner up? Also, what partner would you recommend? I have over 9,000 hits on my channel and 39 subscribers if that matters. A couple of side questions are

A. Does it add any extra restrictions on my content, which is controversial in nature
B. Does a partner bring more views/advertise their channels?
C. Do I have to meet any extra requirements after being partnered, like a certain amount of videos or views?

So which one is the best to use?

At your level just grow your channel. Most good networks wont accept you yet, and the ones that do probably shouldn't be called a network. You should optimally start looking for a network when you have at the very least 500 views per day

None. You don't have a need for a network. Go back and read my answer to B.

C. No

Just as a little side-note for B, some networks will offer Some help. No guarantees. Though you should definitely look into networks that DO offer promotion.

Fullscreen offers some promotion on their hub channels.

I just left Fullscreen. I'm not a gaming channel but I was stuck in the gaming hub because they didn't have a vertical for toys. You should see all of the complaints from the gamers about how FS gaming hub was a joke.

Yes, networks may give some help but my point was that they don't do any significant help. Not enough to make it worth the percentage of revenue that they keep.

I beg to differ. I used to be a moderator on the Yeousch forums (back when Yeousch was still a subnetwork under Fullscreen). I have helped many partners alike with their content and many of them gained a significant following from posting high quality content up. (Emphasis on quality. It's the most important aspect of uploading to hubs).

There can be a significant payoff for uploading to these hub channels and often times can end up giving you more subscribers and views.

How many of the bunch stay active is a different story. Though I've seen audiences grow quite a bit through network hub channels and it can help tremendously! It's just a matter of doing it right.
