A Bit of a lengthy post, but I think it's worth it lol😄

I Wanted to wait and give about at least a week before posting any updates/results regarding

my first few videos that I uploaded.

So here's what has happened so far.

I Uploaded 2 videos to start off my channel. Although one content creator in particular

advises to upload at least 5 Videos when starting or re-launching your YouTube Channel

to give YouTube the best amount of metadata to get your videos in front of the right people.

I uploaded my videos on Saturday, Novembr 30th.

I let Youtube Do its' thing, I checked back on that following Monday which was

the 2nd of Dec. To my Dismay the result were a bit... underwhelming.

So I checked my analytics, and realized that YT Was showing my videos to people who watched content that had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with what I had uploaded lol

Needless to say I was a bit, SAD to say the least.

So much so that I told myself that I would delete the videos and start a new channel the very next day if I didn't see any improvement. Right before doing so I decided to change the title and the thumbnail of the video a bit, and said to myself; "THIS IS IT, IF IT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING I WILL DELETE THE ENTIRE CHANNEL AND START FROM SCRATCH!"

The very next day, I checked my email and saw a notification from YouTube, saying that I got a comment on 1 of the 2 videos that I uploaded.

I Immediately responded to the user that left a comment on my video.

An hour later I started to get a few comments on my OTHER VIDEO That I uploaded and linked to at the end of the first video.

Needless to say, a little over a week later and both videos have reached over 1,000 views and have reached almost 200 subscribers in a littel bit under 2 weeks!

Don't give up guys, constantly be objective about your work while doing the things you Love to do

Sorry for the long post guys LOL😄
