It's a common story. You feel like you need to chase views to continue to be successful. But then, you start to lose the love for what you're doing. The passion is gone. You watch your competition and start forcing your content into what you think it needs to be. It becomes a task, which makes you forget why you started in the first place. This is a red flag, that ultimately can lead to creator burn out. Have you been there? Are you there? If so, this is for you.    Links in this episode Creator Spotlight: https://www.youtube.com/c/TortureTestMagazine Discovery Call: https://videocreators.com/seven-signals/discovery-call/  Why You’ll Quit YT in 5 Years:  https://youtu.be/2jc_KoxYw54  JOIN THE POD SQUAD AFTER-PARTY IN VOLLEY: We love answering questions, hearing your feedback, and discussing each podcast episode with you and hundreds of other creators in our video chat Volley space.

We work with tons of creators and we see this problem all the time. You feel like you made the perfect video, but it just falls flat. It was perfect! What happened?! Well, the problem is, you can be really good at getting information across without making any personal connection. And without making your viewer feel SOMETHING, they probably won't care enough to subscribe or buy something from you. In this episode, we are going to talk about how to fix that.

A lot of us are creating content, selling courses, making podcasts, etc which provides a lot of value to our audiences. But today I want to talk about coaching, which has a lot of benefits as well. With coaching, you can give and sell your information directly to those who want it. And you can tailor your expertise to each client and apply it exactly to their situation, helping them out so much more than posting a video.

Good content strategy on YouTube isn't about hacks and tricks. It's all about learning to think about your content the way YouTube thinks about it. When we align our content strategy with what YouTube wants to surface, it increases the likelihood that our content gets surfaced. One of the ways we can learn how YouTube thinks is to understand their story, both how and why they made certain decisions along the way.

YouTube doesn't rank videos because you got the right keywords crammed into the right spaces. Doing so doesn't convince YouTube that your video is worth surfacing for anyone. They look at viewer signals instead. So instead of doing keyword research, we recommend you do topic research. What's topic research? How do you research your video ideas before hitting record so that you can make a fundamentally better video? Good questions! That's what we discuss in this episode.

What's going on when you publish a video, it flops, and then your next videos after that flop, too? Does the performance of one video on your channel impact the next? Yes and no. There's two different ways to look at this phenomenon on YouTube. One way is an algorithmic perspective in terms of what YouTube's algorithm thinks about your next video based on the videos that were published before it. The second way is an audience perspective of how they behave with future content if you publish a video that doesn't connect with them. In this episode, we talk about both perspectives of this situation as well as many other questions you've submitted about hiring contractors on UpWork, recording voice overs, and when to update the metadata of older videos to breathe new life into them again.

If you're growing a business on YouTube, it's very important that you can drive that traffic to your website. Or, sometimes the opposite is true: you already have a website with traffic, but you need to drive some of that traffic to YouTube to grow your channel. Many creators have tried this before in the past and ended up completely killing their traffic as a result. In this episode we talk with Nate Black about his experience in growing both YouTube channels and websites and get his strategy for how to drive traffic from one platform to another without killing your channel.

Most creators on YouTube go through a lifecycle where they work hard, achieve success, and then fade away. It tends to be about 5 to 7 years long. After observing that pattern on YouTube for over a decade, Matt Koval decided to start talking more publicly about this issue and how we can continue to serve our audience well and grow our business for years to come.
