So… now that my pc is broken (see prev. post), I’ve decided to take a moment and ask you for some feedback on my latest video. It’s this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDXH-... I can safely say that it is among the most complex and time-consuming videos I’ve ever made, maybe THE most. And I genuinely thought it had turned out alright. But contrary to my impression, it has so far been one of my worst performing videos in recent history, and my recent history has been a general low point. The video has simultaneously low click-through rate and relatively low watch time, which means people aren’t really clicking on it when it shows up, and even if they click, they don’t watch much of it anyway… Basically it’s bad :) And I am even more puzzled, because the first video of the series, from several months ago, did relatively fine. And it was rather similar in style, even longer too. It was this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hASx... So I’m wondering if any of you has any thoughts on why the recent video did not turn out so well. My best guess is that the title/thumbnail, as well as the content of the video itself, are rather stale or boring. Perhaps my presentation needs to be more energetic, and my titles/thumbnails more… bombastic? :)
It’s funny cause I’ve been on YouTube for 10+ years and still have no idea what’s going on most of the time.
Anyway, if you read through all of this, I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
I can’t hide the fact that the whole situation has been rather discouraging, but there we go!
