Again, most are hobbyists so I might get lucky and get a cheap boost to jumpstart the channel. I’ll message a couple of the bigger channels and see what’d they’d charge for a shout-out. The content is easy enough to create so publishing more consistently might be enough to get rewarded by the algorithm.

Most publishers are hobbyists and their schedule is all over the place. I have a couple of thoughts on growing the channel quicker: PromotionI don’t have any existing traffic for this niche so I’m a little out of my element here. It’s potentially a way into the niche as most of the competition isn’t doing it but I don’t want to screw with the watch time metrics for the longer videos. You’ll see a little traffic from the short shelf on the traffic source – I posted one but I don’t know if I’ll continue that. That’s a good start especially considering we’re really relying on YouTube to push the channel.
FACELESS YOUTUBE PLUS
Not right at the top but on the top 10 or so, plus we are being suggested by related videos in the niche.

We’re being ranked for the main niche keywords. The watch time is pretty good, and subscribe and engagement rate is looking good so far. It’s not the fastest-growing channel I’ve ever seen but for just publishing easy content it’s hard to complain. With nothing but the algorithm to bring views, I didn’t really know what to expect but the first couple of days showed the first video doing well. The videos themselves are easy to do and I can batch them together quickly. Another hour to get things set up and I was ready to start creating content. Spent about two hours skimming through the popular channels to see what seems to work. Probably the cheapest channel I’ve ever started. The StartEverything I needed for the channel cost less than $100. I do have a few ideas on how I might speed things along a bit. The majority of the competition are hobbyists so consistent publishing and following the popular trends might give me enough of a push. I don’t have anything established in the niche and it would be expensive and time-consuming to try and rush it.īecause the niche is growing so quickly at the moment, my plan is to just start. With this new channel, I can’t really do that. For the ones that found me through YouTube – a good part of that is because I actually promoted the channel. It’s more of a hobby blog so I don’t exactly push it hard but you’ve probably found me from a forum or Reddit. The Digital Assets Lab channel is a fair example of this. Usually, I’d like some organic search traffic, an email list or some social traffic so my channel gets a spike of views and subscribers early on. The (Potential) ProblemNormally, I like to start a channel in a niche I can get some traffic for. A few hours once in a while for a hands-free cash flow and the RPM might well be better than my existing cash cow channels.

If we can get an established channel in the niche it should be an easy asset to manage. I can see a potential way in, I can see it becoming a good cash-flowing asset and (best of all) I can create a month’s worth of content in under an hour or two. I like consistent growth so I know the niche isn’t going to vanish by the time I get established in it.Īnd that’s certainly a risk here, however, it could (potentially) become an evergreen niche and the majority of content producers in the niche are hobby bloggers. This kind of trend isn’t something I would normally look at.
