Pick one niche research viral topics post 2–3 quality videos weekly create clickable thumbnails and titles hook viewers in the first 5 seconds and use analytics to improve.
Focus on value consistency and learning not just views.

I think having up to 1000 subscribers requires posting content that are really engaging. Choose a good niche, Continue to create valuable content that will resonate with your target audience. It might take a while if you dont do SEO, but with SEO, you can achieve this faster.

i would first come up with at least 10 to 15 video ideas on one topic, see which perfforms the best nd then make more from there.no point in posting every day if ur videos have to be rushed. another thing i would keep in mind is where people are dropping off while watching videos nd y.

First, I will choose a niche for making the video. Then I will research my niche. After I will create idea for create the video. You can use ChatGPT to make the script. I will create 20 videos and test them. Which are growing better. I will make videos later based on what gets the best response. Short videos are good for gaining subscribers.

For me, test first on youtube shorts, if your views can pass atleast 5k, then your niche/topic is on a good niche. But if you stack at 1k to 2k. Then your niche/topic is very saturated.

We’d pick one niche, post consistently, make catchy thumbnails and titles, and focus on keeping people watching coz getting those first 1k subs takes time.

Post videos consistently ideally two to three times a day and create compelling thumbnails and titles that capture viewers' attention from the very first second. Focus on maintaining consistency across your videos while actively engaging with your audience through responses. Additionally, incorporate a mix of short and long-form videos to add variety to your content and format
