I started a YouTube channel to see if it's easy to gain some following. I didn't tell my friends or family, maybe 3 friends who like some weird stuff at most I told them about my channel. I don't post it on my FB but I post it here and TwitterX. Oh, yeah I do post it on FB but ony alternate account where none of my real account fb friends are.
So far I've gotten 37 subscribers. It's a hard life ahaha.
I have posted 15 not YT shorts videos, and 4 shorts videos.
Somehow when I started posting shorts and used AI rendering apps, I'm suddenly getting some views. One has garnered 522 views, the others are less than 60.
Anyway I enjoy doing those stories, so doesn't matter even if this little experiment doesn't get to monetization stage.
My experiment is just to make it grow organically. So far YouTube shorts are more effective. People think more than a minute is a long video already.
Wish me luck 🤞
Oops, I have not mentioned the channel, Its The Black Theater with handle @metapizix.
