      You might think, well subscribers give an amount of (depending of subscriber activity).
      Views in this case also gives you subs, that later gives you views.

      1. Entertaining
      Be fun! hurrdurr.

      2. Play a game thats not on YT yet.
      That will give you TONS AND TONS of views, and hopefully a partnership. But only if you are fucken lucky.

      3. Be active.
      Try to create and upload vids daily.

      4. Quality.
      Great sound and video quality pleases our senses. Atleast mine.

      5. Personal attributes
      A sexy voice, for girls - looks gives views. Are you hot and have a sexy voice, your main subbers will be male but you still get alot of views.
      Having a accompanying female is GREAT! Especially if she shows up in a vlog. But thats viewwhoring and we have a certain forum user thats pro on viewwhoring.
    • I had some advice from CinnamonToastKen to keep up what I'm doing because my commentary is great, but to play things people might be searching for - new released games, popular games amongst LP'ers (Slender and SCP are recent examples). I think that makes a lot of sense, but I somehow have to make my vids stand out from the big behemoths of Youtube gaming.

    • Hmm getting big on youtube involves HUUUUUUUUUUUGE luck factor from the beginning, at the moment if you make videos for mainstream games you get accused of copying bigger youtubers, but yeh.

      Recently one of the youtubers i watch ran a gamer of the week contest, write a comment and he will check your channel and decide if he wants you in the video, i actually won and gained like 300 subs from it, was really good! :) So keep an eye out for stuff like that...I'm also featured on another youtubers channel (Robbaz) since he said on twitter; message me and i might put you in my other channels box - Dam lucky! :)

      BUT the main thing about youtube is whether you're having fun whilst making the videos, don't consistently look at your statistics, think they're crap and have that put you down, YT you need patience big time so just make sure you're enjoying yourself in the process :)
