Full transcript

1. 0:00after 200 days of uploading YouTube
2. 0:02shorts I'm now earning 400 a week at 400
3. 0:05000 subscribers it was only 90 days ago
4. 0:08when I was shocked to be even earning 10
5. 0:09a day from YouTube shorts and if you
6. 0:12tell me back then how much I'm earning
7. 0:13now I wouldn't have believed you here is
8. 0:15everything you need to know so you can
9. 0:17achieve my results principle one don't
10. 0:19stop uploading shorts when your channel
11. 0:21goes viral this might seem obvious to
12. 0:23you but personally I was so focused on
13. 0:25earning money that when I reached this
14. 0:27goal I felt like I had accomplished
15. 0:29YouTube shorts as a result I have been
16. 0:32uploading inconsistently and this has
17. 0:33negatively affected my channel because
18. 0:35even if your shorts do go viral they
19. 0:37will stop getting views at some point so
20. 0:39I recommend that you set a goal of
21. 0:41trying to achieve 1 million subscribers
22. 0:43within a year of starting this might
23. 0:45seem like an ambitious goal and I don't
24. 0:47blame you when starting my channel I
25. 0:49thought I would only be able to reach
26. 0:50100 000 subscribers within one year but
27. 0:53it only took me 60 days to reach this
28. 0:55because one thing about growth on
29. 0:56YouTube shorts is that it's exponential
30. 0:58principle 2 don't and go to my channel
31. 1:00and copy the exact Style on my shorts
32. 1:03because there are so many viewers doing
33. 1:04this you need to understand why videos
34. 1:06explaining how I've made money with
35. 1:08football shorts have been viewed over 1
36. 1:10million times and while it has worked
37. 1:12for some channels there's hundreds of
38. 1:14channels that hasn't worked for because
39. 1:15it's now a very saturated topic so I do
40. 1:18recommend you select a niche that
41. 1:20interests you and one that is in high
42. 1:21demand this is what I did in the
43. 1:23football Niche I saw shorts that had
44. 1:25very high view counts with no form of
45. 1:27editing and over time I developed my own
46. 1:30style that was focused on engaging
47. 1:32viewers and I wouldn't worry about
48. 1:33selecting a niche with the highest RPM
49. 1:36for my channel the amount of money I
50. 1:37make for 1 000 views is equal to two
51. 1:40cents for high paying niches such as
52. 1:42education and finance you can achieve
53. 1:44RPMs as high as 8 cents although you
54. 1:47will find it much harder to get these
55. 1:48High View Counts from these niches so I
56. 1:51wouldn't worry about a high RPM if
57. 1:52you're not interested in the niche
58. 1:54principle 3 when you upload your shorts
59. 1:56don't focus on the details because none
60. 1:58of these affect your performance looking
61. 2:00at my highest viewed short with 60
62. 2:02million views I had a simple title and
63. 2:04description I keep it simple for all of
64. 2:07my shorts because you don't want to
65. 2:08distract viewers from your content and
66. 2:10you want as many audiences to understand
67. 2:11it I don't adjust any of the other
68. 2:13settings because I've tried changing
69. 2:15them all before and they don't affect
70. 2:17performance although if you're creating
71. 2:19shorts for the first time just make sure
72. 2:21your category is set correctly if you're
73. 2:23wondering about what time you should
74. 2:25upload your shorts I have uploaded at
75. 2:27every time around the clock and I
76. 2:29haven't noticed any difference in
77. 2:30performance YouTube even knows that
78. 2:32upload time is not known to affect
79. 2:34long-term performance principle 4 after
80. 2:37you upload your shorts you won't gain
81. 2:39any views for a period of time then your
82. 2:41views will Spike but then go back to a
83. 2:43flat line this is something that's so
84. 2:45discouraging about starting a new
85. 2:46channel and might not make any sense
86. 2:48over time you will become familiar with
87. 2:50this because looking at any of the viral
88. 2:52shorts on my channel they all Flatline
89. 2:55for 7 to 30 days before being pushed
90. 2:57into the algorithm no one can prove why
91. 2:59this happened into shorts but I think
92. 3:01it's YouTube testing your short to a
93. 3:03small group of viewers to see if it's a
94. 3:05good shot principle 5 long-term success
95. 3:07on YouTube shorts is not luck I uploaded
96. 3:09eight shorts on my channel before I had
97. 3:11a viral short and at first I thought it
98. 3:14was all work but I did upload another 39
99. 3:16shorts that all got less than 25 000
100. 3:18views which made me realize that I
101. 3:21should go back and study the analytics
102. 3:22of the viral short the difference that I
103. 3:25noticed was the average view percentage
104. 3:26was 83 and compared to all my other
105. 3:29shorts this was very high I found two
106. 3:31techniques that I accidentally applied
107. 3:33to the short to make it have high
108. 3:34average view percentage and ever since
109. 3:36learning these techniques it has allowed
110. 3:38me to consistently upload viral shorts
111. 3:40technique 1 create shorts that have
112. 3:42frequent edits to engage your viewer I
113. 3:45learned about this after noticing I had
114. 3:47text edits graphics and sound effects
115. 3:49every two seconds across the entire
116. 3:51short to keep the viewer engaged both
117. 3:52visually and auditory along with this
118. 3:54I've been adding my first edit just
119. 3:56after the short begins because you want
120. 3:58your viewer to stop scrolling on the
121. 4:00feed as soon as they hear and see your
122. 4:02short technique 2 make your short appeal
123. 4:04to the largest audience possible I
124. 4:06noticed the show was dedicated to one of
125. 4:08the most popular football players and it
126. 4:10was just his funniest moments the funny
127. 4:12moments appealed to a much wider
128. 4:13audience compared to my traditional
129. 4:15content that was only aimed at football
130. 4:17fans who were deeply involved in recent
131. 4:19events also try not to use words within
132. 4:21your edit so you can attract audiences
133. 4:23that speak other languages if you want
134. 4:25to learn in more detail about how to
135. 4:27apply these techniques to your shorts
136. 4:28check out my other recent video where I
137. 4:30take you through the entire process of
138. 4:32creating a short and actually the short
139. 4:34I create in the video now has over 38
140. 4:37million views so you will learn a lot
141. 4:39now let's look at the channel performs
142. 4:40the channel reached 230 million views
143. 4:43over the last 200 days and if I change
144. 4:45the time period to where we began
145. 4:47uploading you can see I uploaded 60
146. 4:49shorts within the first 30 days I
147. 4:52recommend you try push yourself to post
148. 4:53at a similar frequency as you will find
149. 4:56out what works within your Niche much
150. 4:57faster just like I did with this short
151. 4:59here this was my first viral show which
152. 5:02took 13 days before it started to go
153. 5:04viral it made my channel reach a peak of
154. 5:06500 000 views per day and then another
155. 5:09peak of 600 000 views as I mentioned in
156. 5:11principle 5 I did upload another 39
157. 5:14shorts before I went back and studied
158. 5:16what worked in my first viral short
159. 5:18after learning about those two key
160. 5:19techniques I applied them to these two
161. 5:21shorts here and then to my surprise the
162. 5:24shorts didn't immediately go viral and
163. 5:26we were averaging around 30 000 views
164. 5:28per day and if we go down we can see
165. 5:30that both of these shorts were in fact
166. 5:32outside the top five performing shorts
167. 5:35during this period And if I click on
168. 5:37both of the shorts you can see they both
169. 5:39did go viral after around 30 days of
170. 5:41being uploaded because as I mentioned in
171. 5:43principle 4 shorts don't immediately go
172. 5:46viral now back to the overall analytics
173. 5:48we can change the time period to
174. 5:50Lifetime and it was here when those two
175. 5:52shorts started to go viral and we
176. 5:54reached a peak of 970 000 views per day
177. 5:57but these first two peaks looks so small
178. 6:00on a lifetime view compared to the
179. 6:02numbers we have been pushing recently
180. 6:04where the channel has reached Peaks up
181. 6:06to five to six million views per day and
182. 6:08then to another Peak to around four to
183. 6:10three million views per day this
184. 6:12lifetime view really highlights
185. 6:13principle one where I said you should be
186. 6:16consistent in your uploads there are
187. 6:18these large gaps at the bottom here
188. 6:19where I wasn't uploading and this has
189. 6:21caused the slow periods of growth for
190. 6:23the channel which you shouldn't try to
191. 6:25replicate looking a bit deeper into the
192. 6:27analytics we can see that watch time
193. 6:29subscribers and revenue all follow the
194. 6:31same Trend and for Revenue you can see
195. 6:33the channel wasn't receiving any revenue
196. 6:35for the first 50 days because we had to
197. 6:37reach the YouTube Parliament program
198. 6:39threshold but once into the program the
199. 6:41channel was averaging anywhere between
200. 6:43ten to three dollars per day before
201. 6:44reaching the peak of 162 dollars per day
202. 6:47now the channel has been earning
203. 6:49anywhere between 70 and 30 dollars per
204. 6:51day here is the rest of my analytics if
205. 6:53you're interested in any of this
206. 6:54information just pause the video and
207. 6:56have a look my goal with this channel
208. 6:57now is to follow these principles so I
209. 7:00can reach 1 million subscribers before
210. 7:01the end of this year in my next video
211. 7:03I'm going to create new short channels
212. 7:05in niches that I'm unfamiliar with and
213. 7:08apply the techniques that I've been
214. 7:09teaching to prove once again that they
215. 7:11work
