I was a bit slow. I make these music only when I am bored. I need some subs, but I really don’t feel like buying them.

$10 per month for up to 500 songs. I grabbed black Friday yearly deal at a half price.

I create seamless video loops using AI and add various effects in Filmora.

Your YouTube traffic growth is impressive; so, how does it all work behind the scenes? Is the content entirely your own work, or is the process AI-driven? Do you process royalty-free media through your own models or use ready-made tools? How do you define your method and focus on this journey? Do you position AI as an assistant or as the primary creator?

Yo, good to see you tracking that grind your Indian male audience stat is super interesting, maybe lean into that a bit with your content.

I haven't applied for monetization yet. I am arranging a separate identity.
Audio music and video loops are fully AI generated. I do other things manually, like editing, add effects, music EQ and all.
Audience is changing. Mostly male, but people from other countries are also engaging with the channel.

Love that you’re documenting everything — consistency is already half the battle. A few things I’d suggest for your AI music + visuals niche:View attachment 482623
Hey guys, starting this journey thread to keep myself consistent.. something I’ve struggled with in the past
My Niche:
AI Music with AI Visual
Current Stats (as of Oct 24, 2025):
First Upload: Oct 1, 2025
Total Uploads: 8 videos
Total Views: 2,941
Audience: 60% Indian (mostly male)
Subscribers: 39
Watch Time: 390 hours
Earnings: $0
Goals:
Weekly Target: 3 new uploads
By Jan 2026: 40 total videos
Short-Term Goal: Monetization by January 2026
Long-Term Goal: $500/month
I’ll update this thread on every Friday until I hit my first $500 month.
I’d love to hear your suggestions, feedback, or growth hacks. Anything that helps improve this process is welcome.
- Content hooks matter: AI music and visuals are cool, but attention spans are short. Start videos with a strong visual or sonic hook in the first 3–5 seconds to grab viewers immediately. Even a tiny surprise or glitch effect can make people stay.
- Leverage trends: Check TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts for trending sounds or visual styles. You can repurpose them into AI-generated versions — trend alignment helps a lot with discoverability.
- Audience targeting: Since most of your current viewers are Indian males, experiment with themes, genres, or references that resonate with that group — small cultural cues can significantly increase watch time.
- Cross-promotion: Share short snippets on TikTok, Instagram, or even Discord/Reddit AI communities. Link back to YouTube for full versions. Even 5–10% of cross-platform traffic can boost your YouTube growth.
- Engagement hooks: At the end of each video, ask one specific question: “Which AI visual style should I try next?” or “Which genre sounds better with this AI twist?” This can drive comments, which feeds the algorithm.
You’re already on the right path by tracking everything weekly — keep iterating based on your metrics (watch time + retention matter more than views initially). With consistency + smart tweaks, hitting $500/month by Jan is totally doable.
congratulations Bro!View attachment 522756
Alright, long time no updates… I’ve been working irregularly on the channel because of my other projects. But two days ago, I applied for YPP, and it got accepted. Congratulations to me!
