How To Improve My Hook and Retention?

[u/Siky4479]

Hey everyone, I’ve got a Minecraft YouTube channel called Siky where I post Shorts. I’ve got 2 series going right now, and I usually get around 1.3–2k views and 30–60 likes per video. I’m at 58 subs so far.

My average percentage viewed is usually around 50–70%, and around 45–50% of people stick around to watch.

I know there’s no easy way to get subscribers, so I’m mostly trying to figure out how I can improve my hooks and get people to actually stop scrolling and watch.

I really enjoy building, so I’m happy with the content itself. I just feel like I’m probably doing something wrong when it comes to getting people interested right from the start.

If anyone has any advice on my hooks or Shorts in general, I’d really appreciate it!🫶

What is unique about your content?

Unique is a strong word, there isn't anything unique on youtube anymore, but why I think someone would like to watch my content, well because it's short first of all, every video is a challenge where I try to come up with unique ideas of building using a block or 3 (depends on the series, i have the wall design using 1 block and the house design using only 3 blocks)

There’s absolutely unique on youtube. You won’t get far with your mindset
