8 youtube settings that f*ck up small type beat channels... — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00Let me know if this is relatable. So,
2. 0:01you open a fresh new channel, you
3. 0:03prepare your uploads, you post
4. 0:04consistently for a week, and then you
5. 0:06look at your views, and you're stuck in
6. 0:09that horrible zero view jail. That
7. 0:11sucks. And in this video, I want to show
8. 0:13you the eight YouTube settings that
9. 0:15every small type B channel gets wrong,
10. 0:17and that are completely killing your
11. 0:19growth without you even realizing. My
12. 0:21name is Daniel. I'm an 18-year-old music
13. 0:22producer, and I've made more than
14. 0:24$250,000 posting my beats on YouTube. By
15. 0:26the end of this video, you'll know
16. 0:28exactly how to correctly set up your
17. 0:30type B channel to actually maximize
18. 0:32growth and getting out of that zero view
19. 0:34jail forever. Now, starting off by the
20. 0:36first setting, this is not actually
21. 0:38quite a setting, but it's what a lot of
22. 0:40people get wrong. And see, when you have
23. 0:41a fresh new email or channel that you
24. 0:44just made, like for example here, I'm on
25. 0:45my homepage of a fresh new channel that
26. 0:47I just made. No uploads. I haven't
27. 0:49touched my YouTube Studio, whatever.
28. 0:51Like it's literally fresh new. The
29. 0:52problem with that is, especially if you
30. 0:54created a new email for this account, is
31. 0:56that YouTube will think you're a bot for
32. 0:59the simple reason that this
33. 1:00email/account has never been used
34. 1:03before. So, the very first thing before
35. 1:05you even worry about starting to upload
36. 1:07on your channel will be to warm up that
37. 1:10same channel or email. So, for example,
38. 1:12these are all the videos that YouTube
39. 1:14right now is suggesting me. As you can
40. 1:15see, they're all random because they
41. 1:17have no idea what I'm going to do, what
42. 1:18I like, and if I'm even a real person.
43. 1:21So, what are we going to do is simply
44. 1:22activate this email and we're starting
45. 1:24to warm it up. And the best way you can
46. 1:26do that, this is my honest advice, it's
47. 1:28simply cons- consume type B content. So,
48. 1:31for example here, I literally see a type
49. 1:33B type B video, so I can click on it,
50. 1:35keep on watching. I would leave a like.
51. 1:37You can comment some type of like fire
52. 1:39emojis, whatever. It's going to like
53. 1:41show the algorithm that you're actually
54. 1:42engaging with these videos, and I'm
55. 1:44going to keep on doing this process over
56. 1:46and over again until I actually warm up
57. 1:48my email. So, you can see this is full
58. 1:50of other type B videos. You can spend
59. 1:52like 15 to 20 minutes. I would actually
60. 1:55take my time to do this because it's
61. 1:56super important. If you don't do this,
62. 1:58YouTube will think you're a bot and will
63. 2:00simply shadow ban your channel and
64. 2:01you'll never be able to get views. Now,
65. 2:04for setting number two, this might sound
66. 2:05really obvious, but please don't skip
67. 2:07this whenever you're starting to upload.
68. 2:09And that would be to enable the advanced
69. 2:11features. It's super simple to do. You
70. 2:13simply go here on settings, you go on
71. 2:15channel, feature eligibility, and you
72. 2:17make sure that all of these are enabled
73. 2:19because uh it will simply make your
74. 2:21channel look more solid and actually
75. 2:23human to YouTube and simply look like a
76. 2:25more
77. 2:26trustworthy channel. So, you want to
78. 2:27make sure that all of these are enabled
79. 2:29and the way you do that is simply go to
80. 2:30this page. As you can see, this is my
81. 2:32main channel, they're already enabled uh
82. 2:33because I've done this in the past, but
83. 2:35we'll show up a button like around here.
84. 2:38You can just click that and it's going
85. 2:40to be super easy to follow the process.
86. 2:41You can just go along. Make sure you
87. 2:43complete that uh because it requires you
88. 2:45to do some simple steps. You know, it's
89. 2:47going to be super easy, but it's a very
90. 2:49important setting for you to turn on.
91. 2:51What that is going to also let you able
92. 2:53to do is actually upload clickable links
93. 2:55into your description. That is literally
94. 2:58the most important thing you can have
95. 3:00because any artist who's going to click
96. 3:01on your video will then have the option
97. 3:03to actually purchase your beats uh by
98. 3:06the link you put in the description. If
99. 3:07your channel is not verified, YouTube
100. 3:09will not let other people actually click
101. 3:11on those links, which is going to
102. 3:12completely kill your conversions when it
103. 3:15comes to viewers actually turning into
104. 3:17customers. Now, for the third setting,
105. 3:19let's talk about branding. I see
106. 3:21producers over editing their
107. 3:23whenever they just open a channel. As
108. 3:24you can see, uh on my main channel, I
109. 3:26literally only have a super simple
110. 3:28profile picture, banner, and name. And
111. 3:30that has to be your case, too. See, if
112. 3:32you start over editing your stuff,
113. 3:34YouTube once again will think you're a
114. 3:35bot. important for you to simply leave
115. 3:38it as simple as possible and don't over
116. 3:40edit it, especially when you just made
117. 3:42your channel. So, choose a clean profile
118. 3:44picture, choose a banner that actually
119. 3:46makes sense with what you put. As you
120. 3:48can see, my color palette is basically
121. 3:50like gray, like for the logo, text, and
122. 3:53then black simply as a background. The
123. 3:55reason I chose that is because it
124. 3:56matches well with the type of videos and
125. 3:59aesthetic that I overall follow my
126. 4:00channel. As you can see, there's like
127. 4:02black gaps here. It's freestyle beats,
128. 4:04so it's something super So, it's
129. 4:05something like mainly dark.
130. 4:07Um and so, this made sense. Maybe if
131. 4:09you're doing R&B, you can put aim for
132. 4:11more of a color like I don't know,
133. 4:12brown, beige, red, whatever. But, please
134. 4:16make sure that your branding actually
135. 4:17make all sense and don't over edit it.
136. 4:20That also has to do with your name and
137. 4:22handle. Leave them super simple and as
138. 4:23close as possible to your producer name.
139. 4:25For the fourth setting, this is what a
140. 4:27lot of you guys might wonder how to do
141. 4:29correctly. And again, it's really
142. 4:31important to maximize your score. That
143. 4:33is going to be tags and keyword. So, I
144. 4:35have a strategy that I use when it comes
145. 4:36to me making my keywords. I'm going to
146. 4:38open a new Google Doc and I'll show you
147. 4:40step-by-step how I do this. Whenever
148. 4:41you're posting a type beat, you're going
149. 4:43to have artist type beat, right? With
150. 4:45that, usually what I recommend is having
151. 4:47your first primary artist. Let's say in
152. 4:50this case is Drake. And then, the second
153. 4:52artist, which is going to be the the
154. 4:53artist you're going to that is similar
155. 4:55to the sound you're making, but is less
156. 4:56important, like it's not a main keyword.
157. 4:58So, for example, here we got Drake. A
158. 4:59second artist, if you want to do some
159. 5:01type of niche, it could be
160. 5:02PARTYNEXTDOOR, right? So, these are our
161. 5:04two artists. And then, when it comes to
162. 5:06the tags, I alternate these ones. So,
163. 5:09free and and then, I call these things
164. 5:12variables. Going to tell you why in a
165. 5:14second. These are free, free for profit,
166. 5:172026 or whatever year you on. Sample.
167. 5:21Sometimes you can leave it at that cuz
168. 5:23it's a really popular keyword right now.
169. 5:25So, I'mma just leave it here. And then,
170. 5:27second artist. So, let me explain.
171. 5:29Whenever you have artist type beat,
172. 5:31that's your main keyword. So, for
173. 5:33example, Drake is your primary artist,
174. 5:35this is literally going to be your main
175. 5:37keyword if you're posting in a Drake
176. 5:38type beat niche. Making the super most
177. 5:41generic example. With that, you actually
178. 5:43start adding as the variables to create
179. 5:45different tags, and you're sure that
180. 5:47with those variables the tags are going
181. 5:48to be good. So, for example, I can start
182. 5:50doing free
183. 5:52and then we have the main keyword right
184. 5:54there. Or I could do free for profit and
185. 5:56then we have the main keyword like that.
186. 5:58Or I could have main keyword 2026, or I
187. 6:01could have 2026. You know, some
188. 6:03basically like just writing alternatives
189. 6:06based on these variables and the artists
190. 6:09that I put there. Now, the second artist
191. 6:11the the way we do that could be either
192. 6:13the same way we're using the main
193. 6:15artist. So, for example, in this case is
194. 6:16Drake, right? So, we're going to do the
195. 6:18same thing PARTYNEXTDOOR type beat is
196. 6:21going to be our main keyword, and we can
197. 6:23just play around with the other
198. 6:25variables. Or another super good thing
199. 6:27you can do because also the second
200. 6:29artist part of the variables I like, you
201. 6:31can do first artist X second artist and
202. 6:34once again add these variables. So, what
203. 6:36that is going to do is going to look
204. 6:38something like this, Drake X
205. 6:39PARTYNEXTDOOR type beat, and then again
206. 6:41you repeat the process. You keep on
207. 6:44doing this until you have around 350
208. 6:46keywords. That's the sweet spot for me.
209. 6:48350 all the way to 400 because by then
210. 6:51you want to start adding the generic
211. 6:53keywords, which are something like type
212. 6:55beat, beat, beats,
213. 6:58um free beats, freestyle beats, anything
214. 7:01that's like super generic because this
215. 7:04is going to help you rank when your
216. 7:05channel actually starts growing. For
217. 7:07example, now I'm going to pull up my
218. 7:09main analytics, like the advanced
219. 7:11analytics of my channel, and I'll show
220. 7:14you what I mean with this. So, we're
221. 7:15going to go to traffic source, YouTube
222. 7:18search, and you we're going to be
223. 7:20surprised by how I'm actually getting
224. 7:22majority of my views from because it's
225. 7:24not even my keywords, so Splurge type
226. 7:26beat is mainly beats, type beat, beat,
227. 7:29freestyle beats, instrumental beats, so
228. 7:31it's super really generic keywords. This
229. 7:33is the last 28 days, you're going to
230. 7:35have a better understanding if I put the
231. 7:37lifetime like source. As you can see,
232. 7:39I'm ranking mainly on the
233. 7:41keyword beats, which is like the most
234. 7:43generic one, type beat, and then again
235. 7:46the list goes on. So, this is super
236. 7:47important. Make sure you follow the
237. 7:49steps properly. Once you have your
238. 7:50keywords, how you want to put them is in
239. 7:53order in the in the tag section. So,
240. 7:55this is going to be in every video. Then
241. 7:57paste the same tags. You can literally
242. 7:58click here and put them in the
243. 8:00descriptions as you can see here.
244. 8:02Then you put the same keywords also in
245. 8:04your channel settings right there. And I
246. 8:07also like putting them
247. 8:08in my description like of the overall
248. 8:10channels. You can see I put them here.
249. 8:13By doing this, you're 100% sure that
250. 8:15you're optimizing the SEO score of your
251. 8:18channel, so you don't have to think
252. 8:19about it whenever you upload. If you
253. 8:21even want to do that in a easier way,
254. 8:23you can just go to upload defaults and
255. 8:24you literally set everything up. As you
256. 8:26can see, every time I post a video, I
257. 8:27have everything ready, so I just need to
258. 8:29put the title in in that. Really
259. 8:31important setting, please don't
260. 8:33this up. Now for the sixth setting,
261. 8:34we're going to talk about the home tab.
262. 8:36It's literally one of the most important
263. 8:38things for the way you present your
264. 8:40channel. So, if you go to customization
265. 8:43home tab, make sure this is turned on.
266. 8:45And here you have a fully customizable
267. 8:48um home tab for you. Usually what I do
268. 8:50is I put a channel trailer uh for people
269. 8:52who either haven't subscribed or um for
270. 8:55returning subscribers. Usually for
271. 8:57returning subscribers, I simply put like
272. 8:59the one of the my mass best performing
273. 9:02beats on my beat store. So, the ones
274. 9:04that's getting the most amount of sales.
275. 9:07For people who haven't subscribed, I put
276. 9:08my most viewed video of that specific
277. 9:11time frame. For example, this one of my
278. 9:13most popular one with a million with a
279. 9:15millions of views.
280. 9:16Uh just to make sure
281. 9:18um I actually optimize like my channel
282. 9:20to get uh attention as soon as possible.
283. 9:22And easiest way to do that is simply to
284. 9:24put your best performing beat. If you
285. 9:26still don't have one, simply put one
286. 9:28that you think has the most potential or
287. 9:30that's is simply getting more views in
288. 9:31that period.
289. 9:33Then uh I would recommend posting the
290. 9:35video section and popular video section.
291. 9:37So, this is everything you need, but
292. 9:39just make sure the home tab is turned on
293. 9:41because it boosts his engagement
294. 9:42whenever someone click on your channel.
295. 9:44And now, coming to the last setting, but
296. 9:46not because of his importance, this
297. 9:47could be literally a silent killer for a
298. 9:49channel if you have this turned on. So,
299. 9:52whenever you're uploading a video,
300. 9:53please, and I tell you, please, please,
301. 9:56please, make sure that this "No, it's
302. 9:58not made for kids" thing is turned on
303. 10:00because no, our beats are not
304. 10:03made for kids.
305. 10:04>> [laughter]
306. 10:04>> So, don't turn that on. If you do turn
307. 10:07that on, not only is literally like
308. 10:09going to completely kill your
309. 10:10engagement, it's not going to be it's
310. 10:12not going to let people to comment on
311. 10:13your video, which kills engagement.
312. 10:15Overall, it just doesn't make sense, but
313. 10:17I see a lot of people have turned it on
314. 10:19by automatic like default settings or
315. 10:21simply because maybe YouTube gets like,
316. 10:24I don't know, the wrong idea about what
317. 10:25you're posting. Please turn this off.
318. 10:27Like, it's as easy as that. I'm sure
319. 10:29that if you turn these settings and you
320. 10:30do everything properly the way I showed
321. 10:32in this video, your channel will
322. 10:34actually start getting real organic
323. 10:36growth. But, if you're wondering how to
324. 10:37scale your channel and actually start
325. 10:39getting those viral videos, I actually
326. 10:41do have a completely free course that
327. 10:43it's 2 hours long, a little bit more,
328. 10:45going literally over everything A to Z
329. 10:48on what I did to all of my channels and
330. 10:50my student channels to actually scale
331. 10:52them every single time. That That's
332. 10:54literally all of my blueprint right
333. 10:56there for free on my YouTube. I'll leave
334. 10:58the link in the description. Make sure
335. 11:00you watch that. Go watch it, take notes,
336. 11:03and implement. Like, I've had so many
337. 11:05people texting me saying they got
338. 11:07amazing results just by watching that
339. 11:09video. It's free, so please go watch
340. 11:12that if you still haven't because it's
341. 11:13literally the only video like that on
