It is impossible to know which individual video will ever be successful, but there are many known ways to help a channel grow. Unfortunately for me, I don't follow many of those rules, because I think that they take away from the product we as creators are providing, the video. I can't stand the whole "make sure to comment, subscribe and smash that like button" thing. I don't like to interrupt the video with unrelated integrated sponsored adds. Most of all, I don't like to upload multiple short poorly produced videos every day. My product is a once weekly, 20 to 30 minute episode, with a storyline and interviews, produced to the highest quality I can manage in one week. This model works well for audience retention, but Google does not push and promote a channel with what they consider infrequent uploads. I hope that the edition of consistent twice weekly uploads will help, but please be sure that the Saturday uploads will always remain full length and fully produced.
Thank you all for enjoying the show. :)
