He emphasizes starting with short-form content, avoiding streaming first, and investing in thumbnails and titles. ## Transcript internet, and it wasn't luck. Do you want to know how? Hello everyone, here and a little over 2 years ago, specifically on July 9, 2023, I uploaded this video. At that time I was n't yet making a living from YouTube or creating content on the internet. We barely had 20,000 subscribers and today we are more than 70,000. By the way, thank you very much. And if we compare the quality of that video with the present day, the difference is very obvious. But most importantly, what I said in that video worked not only for me, but for many people who saw it and wrote to me saying that it had worked for them, that they got real results. That's why I want to talk to you, small or new creator, or one who feels like they're was exactly where you are now. I've been creating content for 9 years and I've made mistakes that cost me time and opportunities. And I'm going to tell you all this today in a sort of remastered version of that past video, sharing my methods and experiences so that you can start your journey in an easier way. Because the first myth debunked is that being a content creator, at least professionally, is not easy at all. My first mistake was starting with Twitch. At that time I believed that doing daily streams was enough to grow without using other networks to attract an audience. Several years passed until my stubbornness gave way and I realized I needed to do something else. So I tried YouTube. I started by creating totally original content, no re-uploading my streams. Well, things were going well. I was consistent, patient, always trying to improve from one video to the next, but I ignored copyright. Since it was a small channel, I thought YouTube wouldn't pay much attention to whether I used copyrighted music or videos, but it turns out they did. Sooner or later they're going to realize this. And just when I was about to monetize my first channel, I received several strikes and my channel was deleted. It was a hard blow, yes, but it taught me something important. Well-planned work, consistency, and patience pay off. And be very careful because at this point comes one of the great tests for the content creator: learning. Many small channels stagnate and fail to grow because they never learned how to edit videos, edit images, improve microphone sound, camera image, and lighting. And I understand, it's difficult because you have to learn to do this without neglecting your obligations at home, at school, at work, and with your family. And let's be honest, making sacrifices isn't for everyone. That's why I find Nexus Clips so helpful, because with Nexus Clips you can connect your Twitch or YouTube channel and automatically generate viral clips . Subtitles, vertical format, hooks, viral titles, hashtags ready. You can even upload a video manually and Nexus Clips will cut it, enhance it, and get it ready to post. It tells you which clip has the most potential to go viral. It's like having an editor, a community manager, and an algorithm on your side, all in one. What else do you want TikTok to upload for you? Well, guess what, it does that on Nexus Clips too. You can publish directly from here or schedule them with everything, including viral hashtags. And if you use my code almich it's cheaper. There it is, easy, fast in the description section. So, I started again, this time with a channel focused on a specific niche and with a strategy. And from here The first thing I did was define my theme and identify opportunities in my niche. So think, what topic are you passionate about? Do you enjoy it a lot or do you find it easy? In my experience, it's essential that it's a topic you really like and understand, because that personal connection somehow protects you your channel's growth isn't what you expected. And once you have it defined, as I mentioned, look for opportunities in that niche. In my case, back then I a new platform that wanted to compete with Twitch. I'm talking attractive, which was the ease of generating income for small creators like KCK, but even easier. The thing is, there were few videos on this page , even fewer in Spanish, and the few that were there were kind of archaic, to the point that I said to myself, "I think I can do better." So I took advantage of that moment and that advantage, which allowed me to quickly position myself in that space. My friend, if everything I just said makes sense to you or has worked for you, I remind you that you help me a lot if you like this video, comment, share, or click Thank you so much for your support and the spam is over. My second piece of advice is consistency and planning adapted to your resources. It doesn't matter if you don't have professional equipment, if you only have your cell phone, start creating short content for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Facebook and Instagram reels right now. Believe it vertical content is incredibly valuable for rapid growth, so forget the idea that it's . Actually, I'm not a fan of TikToks at all, but I do it because I know it works. So take advantage of it and use it as your starting point. Furthermore, this type of content does help you build a community. This way, when you have more resources to build longer videos, more edited videos, or even do streams, you won't start with zero viewers. Publishing consistently with the tools you have is much the camera, the microphone, the setup. I myself started with basic equipment and improved over time, and believe me, the important thing is to start and keep going. In short, start with what you have and let quality come in due time. Create evergreen content, timeless content such as tutorials, how-to guides and, believe it or not , top lists, fun facts or even entertaining gameplay videos. It can continue generating views months or even years later. I know this for a fact. Many of my videos go viral 6 months or even 12 months after I posted them. The key is to exploit what characterizes you so that it maintains its value even over time. And here we take the opportunity to talk a little bit about algorithms. The damn algorithm. Many people on YouTube or TikTok blame the algorithm for their poor performance, and yes, the algorithm stops showing their videos. But the turn the algorithm against them by creating uninteresting, generic content, abandoning their channels and wanting to return six months later, or being very inconsistent with their posts. I remind you that algorithms work like a toxic girlfriend. If you don't take care of her and give her nice things, she will forget you and replace you with others. In short, keep consistently algorithm will leave you alone. One more thing the algorithm really likes is eye-catching thumbnails and effective titles. By the time I understood this, I fortunately already had a following. Yes, all making with dubious quality, but which I later improved because I TikToks and YouTube shorts that I also uploaded. But now I needed to reach a larger audience, and these days thumbnails and titles help a lot with this, even more than having a good video. I know, it's not ideal, but that's how YouTube works. Uh, he could be an anarchist fighting against the system. Then tell me how you're doing or how you're adapting to the current situation. Thumbnails are the first contact potential viewers have with your n't make your thumbnail stand out from all the others on the homepage, the reality is that no matter how good your video is, nobody is going to see it. If you want to progress on YouTube, you have to give maximum importance to the creation of thumbnails. Learn video editing. tons of tutorials on YouTube about how to use them. Study which thumbnails work for your niche, adapt them to your style, and once you find the formula, tell you are tips that could save you years of trial and error. Continue creating vertical content even if you already have an established presence. So on Twitch, on Kick, on whatever platform you want. Don't stop making short films because it is currently the most consumed audiovisual product on the internet. I repeat, whether we like it or not. And TikTok remains the most popular social network in the world. Or why do you think so many famous streamers come from there? From there, your main content can continue to attract new people and can also help you get sponsorships or paid collaborations with brands. Yes, those guys Another piece of advice I want to give you, and I'm actually going to repeat it because I already seriously the most common mistake I see, is wanting to start by streaming. And yes, I understand because they've been the novelty for some years now. there. Many of us have the mistaken idea that this is easier because it's unedited, live content. Wow, easy. But even today, with offers as tempting as KCK's, it's not the right path if you're new. I spent years, years doing almost daily streams and I didn't achieve the growth I deserved or thought I deserved, because neither Twitch nor Kick have and probably never will have a good algorithm that recommends new people, that benefits small streamers. If you want to grow there, you need to arrive with a fixed community, people who are interested in seeing you, and you build that first on other social networks like Facebook. Streaming is like a party. If you don't invite people, nobody will come. It's also okay to take advantage of trends without losing your essence. It's not a bad idea to use current trends or memes to bring some adapt them to your style and theme. And finally, I would like to mention that it is worth investing in yourself. When you can, without going into debt or if you can afford it, go ahead, improve your microphone, your lighting, your camera, well, everything you need, because as I mentioned, it's an investment that if you do it right, sooner or later will pay off. Guys, I always had it in mind to make a living from this. Those who have followed me for years, even before I started monetizing here, know this. And that idea always motivated me to go the extra mile at every moment, to improve every aspect of my content. And of course, I learn, many things to improve, but that excites me even more because it means I can still go further. If in 2023 someone had told me that in 2 years I would be able to live off my dream, have a stable income from social media, sponsorship income, and thousands of people watching my videos, well, I really wouldn't have changed much because I knew this was going to happen and I just worked hard enough to get here. Don't give up when no one is watching. Improve even if no one asks you to, and believe in yourself before others do. Believe that you are doing things right. Believe in your process. My buddy.
