Tips on How to Grow Your YouTube Channel

If you ask the youngest generations, you'll see one of the most common career desires isn't to be a doctor or lawyer, but rather, a YouTuber. Many will have a visceral reaction to that — and you might not be wrong to do so — but it's a desirable way of making a living and I can see the allure. So, here are some tips on how to grow your YouTube channel should you have one.

I have never really tried the YouTube game, as many times as I have considered it. However, if you're a creator of anything, the tips in this video could do you some good. Content creation, in particular, is a staple of modern life and there are many angles to approach it from. I have done an inordinate amount of content creation, including written, audio, and video, with many sub-categories of each, and I can say with confidence that the first tip in this video is one that resonated with me.

When you look to create anything, stop creating what you think people want to see, or what other people have created and achieved success, and start creating what you want to see. The question "what would you want to watch?" is more profound than it seems. Not only will this lead to content that will resonate with people like you, but it will also lead to more authentic content too.
