Can only find generic help that doesn't really work.
Does anyone know any effective ways of promoting content on YouTube without giving the guys over there cash? It often doesn't work and it costs more than you'd expect.
Just to let you know, I'm up on social media, I am trying to collaborate, and I am trying to make videos frequently.
Unless you are previously famous or at least internet famous, you're mostly shit out of luck. For every 10 videos of the thing you search for, there are likely 100s of videos that never get more than 50-100 views.
It's just the nature of the beast.
Your best bet is to latch onto something trending and be one of the videos that might come up when people are searching what's going down.
What are your videos about?

This is a good tip, find an unfilled and emerging niche and make it your thing.
My brother is trying to get YouTube famous and he has an app on his phone that gives him subscribers. He's actually gotten hundreds since he started using it and I would think having a high number looks good to potential actual viewers. I can ask him the name of the app if you're interested

I mostly do YTPs on current events. Recently, I did one on Keemstar, which might go down well.
Other things include the simple ones that get views but don't engage the viewer with the channel, like compilations and clips from other videos. These bring in the views, but not the subscribers.

This sounds interesting. I'm on an android, bear in mind. It might not be compatible, but it would be nice if you asked him about it.

>YTPs
Unbiased; your target audience is already pretty small. You ain't gonna Egoraptor that shit.
If you want more, you'll need to branch out.
On a side note, YTP is the lowest form of comedy on Youtube and you have forever stained your channel. You might want to make a separate one if you branch out.

YTP is a low form of humour, but it's a very easy one. There have been some fairly successful ones in the past, especially some of the longer ones.
I'm stuck for options if I do anything else. Cinematography doesn't catch on in the community anymore, and I have very little musical or artistic capability.

post something your proud of and I'll give it an honest appraisal
Get beat up by niggers in the hood and call it a prank, then upload it to YT with a title in all caps. Actually somewhat legit advice too.

Find out the youtube algorithm and exploit it. I hope it works out for you, I was on Youtube for almost 8 years and I didn't get anywhere, and I uploaded on a schedual and followed their bullshit "tips".

Not allowed to, it's against the global rules on 4chan
