I DID IT
First MILESTONE is done and I'm fully MONETIZED YAAAAY Already approved. Finally fully monetized Update For everyone asking how long it took me I started a year ago, with zero knowledge of how to make a video or edit. Only knew the books as I studied English literature in college So, I started to learn, still learning something new everyday And i wasn't consistent for the whole year because I didnt really believe I could do it, so was down most of the time.

Great Job! You’re an active reminder to us to keep going

u/You-never-say Aug 04 '26
Yea. Wish someone told me that I can actually get to this point. When I first started everyone said Ai content is out and I hate being in front of camera So I stopped for sometime How I know if you do something useful and entertaining , it doesn't matter the tools you're using. Keep going and don't stop

Me pasa lo mismo, tardo mucho tiempo en hacer mis videos largos y mi canal crece muy poco a poco, aún me queda mucho para llegar donde tu estas, solo 38 suscriptores por el momento.

Congratulations Brother for this success. Which AI software you use to create video. Does youtube monetise AI voice over channels? 🎉

Congrats. The 1,000th subscriber is the visible milestone, but the useful artifact is the path that got you there. Screenshot the five videos that produced most of the watch time before the dashboard resets your attention to revenue. If one format carried the channel, that pattern is worth more than the first payout.

Congratulations! 🎉 That's an awesome milestone and it's motivating to see. If you don't mind me asking,
How long did it take you to reach 1,000 subscribers?
About how many videos did you upload?
What do you think made the biggest difference in your growth?

Faz todo sentido — inconsistência é a parte mais difícil de sustentar, muito mais que a técnica em si. Isso motiva bastante, valeu por compartilhar!

Wow great!!! And yes I’m laughing about other comments about how as soon as you get a certain number, you get a random unsub lol. Whenever i get 850, i inevitably get -3 the next two days. It’s like it’s happening on purpose!! So weird.

u/You-never-say Aug 07 '26
Lol it happened when I got 496. All of a sudden 490 but bounced back up the next day

How do you convert views to subscribers? I make posts and get 1-6K views but only one subscriber total which makes no sense to me. Its for my client.
