[00:02] Hello, how are you all doing?  You're a content creator, right? I know, and the views we've all been seeing lately are n't the best, right? Yes, I know, because we're all in the same boat. That's why in this video, I'm going to tell you what the three biggest
[00:18] mistakes can be that could ruin your efforts as a YouTube content creator, and how to make every video you upload a new opportunity to grow your channel quickly. But first, I want you to imagine that you have 100,000 subscribers on your channel and you upload a video that only gets 1,000 views. At the same time, there's another channel with
[00:35] only 50 subscribers that uploads a video that gets 100,000 views. Who do you think won the game? If your answer is the one with the 100,000 subscribers, then I want you to calm down for a bit and watch this video to the end because there's a
[00:48] a bit and watch this video to the end because there's a very important concept on YouTube that has completely changed, and we're still living in the past. We and thousands of other content creators used to dream of...  A content creator, if they reach 1,000 subscribers, or 10,000 subscribers, or even 100,000 or a million
[01:05] or 10,000 subscribers, or even 100,000 or a million subscribers, wow! I imagine that as the number of subscribers increases, the views will automatically increase as well. That used to be the case, but today the situation is completely different. The number of subscribers might be the least of your concerns
[01:23] on YouTube now. I don't want you to think about it. I'll tell you something very important: if you go to YouTube Studio, then to Analytics, then select your audience, and see the percentage of watch time coming from your subscribers, you'll be surprised that most of
[01:40] your subscribers, you'll be surprised that most of your views might be 90% or so from people who aren't even subscribed to your channel. Can you imagine? So what does this mean, Ayman? Don't complicate things for us; we're already complicated enough. this mean, Ayman? Don't complicate things for us; we're already complicated enough. I'll tell you simply: YouTube is no
[01:53] I'll tell you simply: YouTube is no longer a platform for subscribers; it has become a platform for recommendations, deliveries, or video recommendations. Your video might  It reaches thousands or millions of people even if your channel is just starting today, and this means that your small channel could be
[02:09] just one video away from a real explosion of views. Let me tell you an important fact: YouTube today is much bigger than the YouTube we knew back then. Competition has increased a lot. we knew back then. Competition has increased a lot. The number of videos has reached billions. Viewers have limited time
[02:24] because of Reels and short videos. Viewers today are different from viewers of the past. So now YouTube doesn't ask itself the traditional question, "Who is subscribed
[02:36] to the channel so I can send them the video?" But it now asks a completely different question: "Who is the person who can benefit from this video or enjoy this video at the moment?" If it finds the answer to
[02:50] this question in your video, it will start suggesting it, even if your channel has 20 or 30 subscribers. Can you imagine?  And surely you saw this yourself. I saw a channel that had 70 subscribers, and because of
[03:04] one video, it was able to achieve more than 100,000 views, and the number of subscribers changed from 70 views, and the number of subscribers changed from 70 to 2,000 in approximately 48 hours. So what changed?  Nothing has changed except that this video was the right video for the right person
[03:21] at the right time. This is exactly what happens on YouTube every day now. Unfortunately, there's a big problem with most content creators. They upload, say, 50, 70,
[03:34] or even 100 videos and then start saying the algorithm is unfair, there's no support, YouTube doesn't support small channels, people don't watch Arabic content anymore, and my niche is finished. I want to tell you frankly, the algorithm isn't against you. I know this might upset a
[03:51] against you. I know this might upset a lot of people, but the truth is, it's the audience that decides. If the audience clicks on the video, watches it, and finishes it, YouTube will reward you. If the audience ignores the video, YouTube will assume there are other videos that are better for the viewer, so
[04:07] it will suggest those videos. The issue, guys, is simply not personal; it's not a conspiracy against your channel. I think this is some of the best news you could hear because if the problem was with YouTube, you couldn't change anything. But if the problem is with the content...  So you have 1000
[04:23] problem is with the content...  So you have 1000 ways to develop it, improve it, and make it better.  So what are the real reasons for the failure of most content creators, Mr. Ayman?  The first reason, sir and madam, is giving up too early.  Unfortunately, many people treat YouTube
[04:38] too early.  Unfortunately, many people treat YouTube as a lottery ticket.  Either I win in the first round or the matter is over, although the truth is different.  YouTube is a cumulative game, a marathon, as we always say. Every video you upload gives you new experience and provides you with
[04:55] new data about your audience. You might upload 10 videos, 30 might fail, 50 might fail, 100 might videos, 30 might fail, 50 might fail, 100 might fail—that's normal. But, say, video fail—that's normal. But, say, video number 101 might be the one that changes the future of your channel.
[05:09] Keep in mind that the biggest problem is that many people give up before reaching that video that could transform their channel, that could literally change their lives. This happened to all the big channels. They kept going at a certain pace and a certain level of
[05:25] views. Some stayed for six months, some for a year, some for two years, uploading uploading videos with the same number of views and the same engagement. Then videos with the same number of views and the same engagement. Then suddenly, God blessed them with a video that
[05:39] suddenly, God blessed them with a video that completely changed the channel. But the goal is for each video you upload to be a better version of the one before it. Don't just upload videos for the sake of uploading. Some upload videos for the sake of uploading. Some people do that, but you need to learn and improve along the
[05:53] way. Consider it a journey, and during this journey, learn and improve.  Look at your competitors' channels and start learn and improve.  Look at your competitors' channels and start doing the same, but in your own way and style. The second reason is selfish content.
[06:08] I know this might sound a bit difficult, but ask yourself a simple question: Is the video you're making made for the viewer, or just because you want to make it and are taking the easy way out? There's a big difference. Keep in mind that when a viewer opens
[06:24] big difference. Keep in mind that when a viewer opens YouTube, they're not there to help you achieve your dreams, reach 100,000 subscribers, or make money. Viewers come to benefit, to enjoy, to learn something
[06:38] useful. That's why you need to ask yourself what value the viewer will get after wasting 10 minutes on your video. If you can't answer this question, then your video content needs to be reviewed again. The third reason is wanting something in return
[06:55] before you offer anything. Some people, within the first 30 seconds of the video, subscribe to the channel, activate the seconds of the video, subscribe to the channel, activate the bell, like, and leave a comment. But seriously, what's the point?  There's something called a hook, something called grabbing the viewer's attention first, and
[07:10] something called providing value first. Have some mercy on the viewer. It's not like a boxing ring where you can't just punch them the moment they open the video. Give them something useful first. Let them enjoy it. Let them get engrossed in the video and think to themselves, "I have to watch all the
[07:27] videos this channel uploads." They'll start subscribing, commenting, and watching more on their own. Even if you don't ask, if you provide the viewer with value and enjoyment, they'll seek you out and
[07:40] interact with you. There's nothing wrong with asking them to subscribe and comment; these are called "call to action." You're asking them for something, but you shouldn't do this at the beginning of the video. Make the beginning a
[07:56] strong hook to attract the viewer and keep them watching until the end. Asking for interaction and all that should be in the middle or towards the end of the video. So, leave that after you've provided
[08:08] the value, not before. Now, let me tell you about...  A very important piece of advice: Don't be afraid of failure. Every successful content creator today has had videos that failed and no one
[08:20] watched. Publish, learn, and analyze your video results after 24 or 48 hours. Monitor the video's performance: Is the click-through rate good? Is the average watch time
[08:33] higher than other videos? Did people watch the video to the end? If the answer is yes, then you've the video to the end? If the answer is yes, then you've discovered something your audience loves, so repeat it again and again. YouTube doesn't require genius, by the way, but it does require you to look at and analyze the statistics
[08:49] the way, but it does require you to look at and analyze the statistics YouTube provides about your audience and start working on the things people like and enjoy watching. Don't fall into the enjoy watching. Don't fall into the trap of sporadic publishing. Some people publish
[09:04] once a week, then every two weeks, then wait a month, then two months, and then they tell wait a month, then two months, and then they tell you, "I've been doing this for three years and my channel isn't growing!" It's because they're not consistent. So, which video could be the reason for my channel's success?  No one can
[09:21] answer this question for you. It might be after 10 videos, it might be after 50 videos, it might videos, it might be after 50 videos, it might be after 100 videos, but what is certain is that it will not be the video that you did not make at all. Be careful, even if YouTube is about luck, luck will come to
[09:37] the people who work, but you are sleeping and not uploading videos, how will luck come to you?  He won't come to you at all.  There is one important point I want you to remember: we are now in the age of we are now in the age of artificial intelligence, and every day there are thousands of AI-generated thumbnails and thousands of
[09:51] artificial intelligence, and every day there are thousands of AI-generated thumbnails and thousands of what makes people choose you? The simple answer is you: your style, your personality, your way of explaining things, your
[10:04] simple answer is you: your style, your personality, your way of explaining things, your charisma, your identity—that's what people have started to recognize and trust. I'm not saying don't use artificial intelligence; use it fully, use artificial intelligence; use it fully, but don't let it
[10:19] but don't let it use you and turn you into a copy of thousands of other channels and videos. I always say that success on YouTube in the coming period will depend on two things together: first, learning all the new tools and benefiting
[10:34] from them, and second, being a real person with your own personality, style, identity, and charisma. Whoever can combine the two is the one who will succeed. So, I want you to set a goal succeed. So, I want you to set a goal in your mind and achieve it. The next 12 months should be a
[10:49] in your mind and achieve it. The next 12 months should be a year of publishing, experimenting, and learning. Stop overthinking and hesitating, year of publishing, experimenting, and learning. Stop overthinking and hesitating, perfect equipment, and the perfect time. Start with the video you can make today, learn from it for the
[11:03] next one, and develop it for the next. Remember, YouTube can change the future of your channel.  With just one video, the real question isn't when that video will come out, but whether you'll
[11:16] that video will come out, but whether you'll still be going by then or, unfortunately, will you give up before you reach your goal? If your answer is that you'll continue, I commend you because you've surpassed many competitors
[11:28] who will quit. I want you to watch this video; it will greatly help you in in creating a plan for your channel. Peace be upon you.
