How long did it take you to reach 1,000 Subscribers?

I'm curious what the average time is for most gaming channels to reach 1,000 subs.

The Single Most Useful Tip I've Gotten

Hey guys, I wanted to share this with you. I got this tip from Nadine Sykora. You can find the full video here: https://youtu.be/7mmsvdzZZoo?si=g3rr0lzT6Sjp7pcF

Here's the Cole's Notes:

You're probably titling your videos wrong. This is how to write better titles:

1. WHO - Who is the video for?
2. WHAT - What is the video about?
3. CURIOSITY - What makes someone curious enough to click?

Often, we're writing titles that do not answer these three key pieces of data for the viewer. This is the information the viewer wants to know before clicking on your video.

"Is this video for me?" - WHO
"What am I going to watch?" - WHAT
"Am I curious enough to click?" - CURIOUS

Following this format can help you increase viewer satisfaction. The title is delivering the content people expect to get when they click on it.

I was averaging 5–10 views per video. After changing how I approached titles, I started seeing 50–100 views more consistently, and one video went from around 100 views to 2,000 views and brought in roughly 100 subscribers.

Hope this helps you and happy YouTubing!

What's the hardest lesson you'e learned from your channel?

Curious to hear thoughts from smaller creators. We always hear the thoughts from the videos that get big, but rarely from the channels that haven't blown up.
