Fame or fun?
A lot of times when I see videos on youtube there are comments that try to convince or lure people to their channel, sometimes it´s pretty desperate and sometimes it´s actually quite sincere. But it still comes down to one thing, check out my videos!
Why do you make videos on youtube? I think in the early days it was just for fun, to share a cool video with other people. But when some people had a lot of succes with their videos and actually made money of that then it didn´t take long for other people to try the same thing. Because earning money with uploading videos seems easy, well it´s not that easy actually. This is something a lot of people figured out when they started their youtube adventure. I think about half of the people that wanted to earn some money with uploading videos quit within the first year probably because of a lack of succes or perhaps because it was more work then they first thought. Which is where I go back to why people first started uploading videos on youtube, for fun!
What´s wrong with trying to be famous and succesful on youtube? Nothing really, but just be prepared to be disappointed when things aren´t going your way. You can´t force people to watch your videos and no matter how funny you think your video is if no one watches it then it will still be tough on you. Which is why I definately recommend making videos for fun, don´t expect anything and every little bit of positivity will be a blessing. If you have fun in making videos and have fun in the video itself, then it will most likely be more entertaining to watch. Maybe you want to be more serious and upload some helpful videos or videos with discussions or interviews, well that can be interesting as well but you might want to do something that makes you stick out instead of being number 1234567 that does that!
I´ve heard several times from youtubers that are succesful that they have fun making videos, it helped them through the early years and makes it fun up to this day to keep making new videos. I also started making videos just for fun, they´re not pretty and they´re not special. They´re just gaming videos that show my emotions while playing games, which goes from good to bad and then once again back to good. It´s nothing special and I have no intentions of getting succes with it, it´s not why I upload videos! I have fun making these videos, yes even my rage videos. It´s nice if people notice you and want to watch your videos, but remember to do it for the right reasons!
