Iâve been a YouTuber for about four months and when I tell you that itâs one of the most difficult and rewarding experiences of my life I mean just that. ITâS BEEN A JOURNEY!
No-one takes it seriously when you say âIâm workingâ or âI have to filmâ. Thankfully no one expects me to be making an income yet so I donât have to explain my career path at the moment. But one day I will and when that day comes Iâm going to need numbers to back it up. Not just money but also views. If youâre also a small YouTuber - then you know how frustrating this little hitch on the road to YouTube success is!
I mean you work hard, filming for two days then beginning the rigorous process of editing which contrary to popular belief is gruelling and annoying and EXHAUSTING. And then sometimes you find yourself in that rather unfortunate predicament that leaves you nearly suicidal when you realise thereâs a certain clip that got corrupted or you didnât press record, so youâre back to step 1 - filming. And you want to cry and take a year off to recollect your thoughts and rethink this whole existence thing but you canât because itâs Tuesday and your channel banner says in bold ânew video every Wednesdayâ. So even though you would love a year long break you canât have one because in less than twenty-four hours you have to post because youâre too small a YouTuber to get away with inconsistency.
So after shedding tears and contemplating quitting YouTube because a desk job honestly seems great and is looking mighty fine, you get up and begin the process of re-assembling your make shift tripod stand (because youâre too small a Youtuber to afford a camera or equipment for that matter) and refilm the lost footage. After two hours, youâre done, youâre so happy and keen to start the editing process. This goes by slowly and youâre nearly in tears but seven hours and five coffees later youâre done itâs 2AM but youâre finally done. The voice over takes you another two hours to record and sync because youâre jittery and bleary eyed and havenât slept since your last video went up. But finally, youâre done. The stupid video that you hate but are extremely proud of is ready and youâre elated, over caffeinated and damn near insane from what you have just gone through. But you did it and you feel like a champion, the lack of sleep is barely even bothering you because youâre a champion and champions donât need sleep.
4AM. You go on Youtube and upload the video, which takes sixteen minutes to upload and process but thatâs okay because you need to edit a thumbnail so while it processes you edit. The thumbnail turns out to be more time-consuming than you had anticipated, and at 4:45 you write a shoddy description and youâre FINALLY ready to press the Publish button and get rid of the stupid video that you put your heart and soul into.Â
At 5AM you officially release your video and it is now up to the rest of the world. You stumble to bed to get some well deserve rest for the next few hours.
You wake up at 10:30 AM impatient to check your views and see how much your channel has grown since you last saw it five and a half hours ago. It is at this second that your hopes and dreams are crushed because itâs been five and a half hours and not a single person among the seven billion on this earth has even accidentally clicked on your video. All that work for nothing. This is what heartbreak is. Not a boy cheating on you or your food falling (although thatâs a close second) but this. No views. Not a single one.
- if this were a depressing post Iâd leave this here and you would go on to quit youtube and become a clerk but itâs not and so instead Iâll tell you how you can get views for no money at all because let's face it, at zero views you and I are too broke to pay for GoogleAds services that are above $2.

Press play and the website will automatically switch between other creators videos and credit your account for every video viewed correctly. All with no work or money from you! And honestly, this is a great opportunity for you to see what else is out there- I have ended up following certain channels of my own free will for no credits just because GrowViews gave me the opportunity to come across quality content and YouTubers who seriously need to be discovered ASAP!
