My Journey into the YouTube and Game Industries… Month 70
Hi Guys
Here is the update for the last the month!
07/06/24 — New stats from medium:
New stats from YouTube for last month:
09/06/24 — I was able to stream the Xbox Games Showcase live event today, which was a new milestone for me. There were a few glitches during the show, but I’ll cut them out. However, I managed to stream it, and it went quite nicely!
Here is a link to it:
10/06/24 — I recently concluded Ubisoft Forward’s live event, and everything went smoothly.
This time, there were no problems.
Here is a link to it:
11/06/24 — Weekly recap:
In addition, I’ve been talking to someone about SEO, and they offered me a trial. On it, and this is the final product of their labor.
Here are some details about it:
Some individuals work in this field constantly, and many of them get in touch with me daily. Nevertheless, because of their outrageous prices — we’re talking thousands of dollars here — I never entertain these individuals because it’s just not worth it.
I’m capable of handling SEO, however these kinds of products cost money.
Now let’s return to the this tale.
I had asked this person who had approached me what they could give that others couldn’t. In any case, they offered a trial for only one video to test what they could achieve, and the trial went much better than I could have imagined.
Here are its statistics.
52 views since this morning, that is.
I didn’t have any views for this video before, and it has also helped me get more subscribers — four in all.
Knowing this, the following are some results This video has been improved for search engine optimization; the title has been modified to sound much better.
The new title is:
“Assassins Beware The Ultimate Guide to Thief Missions in AC Brotherhood”
As demonstrated below:
Additionally, tags have been modified.
All I can say is that this might be the result of this person telling their friends and family to watch and subscribe to my channel. However, I can’t be certain because the statistics for this video are still pending, so I can’t confirm my assumptions.
Anyway, as we started discussing the pricing, I realized that hiring this individual would need paying tens of thousands of dollars to improve the SEO for all the channels that I am now working on. The price is absurd!!
Therefore, I have just said no and decided to stop since this is ridiculous. I will not be pursuing this any further. But since improved AI is expected in the upcoming months and years, I’ll be researching it since it might be able to help me with this kind of SEO. If something does come up in the future regarding this, I will keep you informed.
Update: 05/07/24 — The views and subscribers I had received were fleeting. My suspicions that this person had convinced friends and family to watch and subscribe to my channel were accurate since after roughly a week, I had lost those four subs and the views had never risen.
Updates: TikTok and YouTube
This is an update regarding the new short videos I have been posting. Initially, these videos were performing well and receiving a lot of views. However, around two weeks ago, the views abruptly stopped occurring for no apparent reason. As a result, the new short videos are now only receiving one or two views at most. I have no idea what’s going on, but I’ll keep you informed if anything changes or if I manage to figure it out.
Because there are now no views the subscriber count has not risen… I will not be able to hit the sub goal. I will need to figure out what is going on here.
Update: My brother and I spoke about this, and he speculated that the reason, the YouTube algorithm, isn’t sure who to show my videos to could be because I’m deleting so many videos from my channel.
I had mentioned that I am deleting older and less relevant videos in my last article.
Here is an update on that:
On my channel, almost 2500 videos have been removed. The channel was never going to grow thanks to these videos.
Simpler Terms:
In other words, I was uploading less-quality content more frequently. I’m now uploading higher-quality, less frequent content.
With such an amount of videos now deleted, there is now a dip in view count (this is not reflected in YouTube studio).
In the above diagram the channel at its peak was over 600,000 views. And now its at just above 300,000 views.
With this information I can now see why the shorts are no longer doing well…
Additionally, around a week ago, I saw an increase in the number of views on TikTok. These are the same shorts videos that I have been posting to TikTok from YouTube.
207 views
463 views
480 views
445 views
485 views
473 views
174 views
With every new upload, these videos are currently receiving over 400 views, which indicates that the TikTok channel is expanding nicely. I’ll keep you informed when anything new occurs in this regard.
18/06/24 — Weekly recap:
25/06/24 — Weekly recap:
28/06/24 — New insights from YouTube:
The channel has been doing alright, but I’d like to watch its direction without adding too many videos.
Therefore only 71 videos have been uploaded till the 28/06/24.
03/07/24- Weekly recap:
As you can see, the shorts are starting to receive fresh views once more. However, we’ll have to wait and see where this goes.
Monthly Recap:
There’s something I seem to be forgetting. I’ll be sure to include it in the article for the following month if I recall it.

“Anyway, do that and you’ll start seeing great follower growth. It’s true that a lot of those followers won’t interact with your stuff- but don’t think like it’s supposed to be everyone reading everything. That’s silly. Instead, think about it like advertising- they’re all now going to see your articles from time to time on their feed. That’s free advertising. If 10 people out of every 100 click, be that’s a 10% conversion rate. In advertising, 10% is pretty standard. Don’t think small- reach for 10,000+ followers.”
