My channel is completely stagnant and it's all my fault.
My mistakes were;
1, Not having a definite niche
2, Not planning content, just spur of the moment stuff.
3, Not focusing on quality sound
4, Posting unrelated content
5, Deleting content
6, Not posting regularly
I could go on but what started as a home movie album tried to become something else.
Do I persevere with the channel as 'public', or revert to private and start a new channel ai.ed at growth.
I enjoy the challenge of YT when I have the time. As I approach retirement it could give me a new challenge.
