Most YouTube channels don’t fail because of bad content.
They fail because the niche was wrong from day one.
This is what a strong automation niche actually looks like: Evergreen topic. Long watch time. Repeat consumption. No personality dependency.
History “for sleep” works not because it’s exciting but because it solves a problem at scale People want to learn and relax. The algorithm rewards that behavior.
Here’s the rule most creators ignore: If your niche can’t be systemized, outsourced, and monetized beyond views
it’s not a business, it’s content creation.
The goal isn’t virality.
The goal is predictable demand + retention + automation.
Question for you: Does your niche meet these standards or are you hoping effort will fix bad strategy?
