From 10'000 to 100 daily views

I decided to stick to a niche and stop posting random stuff... now my views suck... is this normal when niching down? My videos are up to par with competitors within that niche... I don't see any reason why someone who watches them wouldn't also watch my stuff..

My guess is that it will take some time and a lot more videos before I actually build up a decent enough baseline of subscribers within this niche before youtube pushes me more?

Since most of my current subs wont be into the new niche so im kinda starting back from 0

FIRST month of monetisation ($100)

I feel like it’s really bad and I’m demotivated 😕
It’s like $100

Do I suck at thumbnails?

I’ve tried a lot of different things....the 'throw it at the wall and see what sticks' approach...but 600 videos later, nothing has really stuck. Ironically, my best-performing videos are the ones with arguably the worst thumbnails, while my 'best' designs usually perform the worst.

I know the content is decent because viewers frequently comment that they enjoyed the video, that I'm underrated, and that they can't believe my view counts are so low. + high watch time hours

According to YouTube’s AI my CTR is what's holding me back, which is frustrating since my average is 8%. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong

Should I just give up ?

600 videos deep ( no views before October because I deleted the channel then reactivated it )

I'm constantly at the same baseline... I'm not seeing growth... I constantly improved over time, thumbnails, titles, image quality, audio quality, ctr's, avg view dur, it all improved, I'm better at sticking to 1 niche now... Im trying to do everything right... I feel like the growth should be happening right about now ... but Im still at baseline....

Yeah, the spikes are nice, but it's just luck ( right video at the right time kinda thing )

Please help I suck at titles

Need help with a title for my new Dyson Sphere Program video!

I just spent the last two weeks pouring my heart and soul into this playthrough, but I'm absolutely terrible at coming up with titles. I really want to do this video justice can you guys help me brainstorm something catchy that would make you want to click?
