  🎥 The Complete Guide to B-Roll: 10 Types Every YouTuber Should Master (with Real Examples)
  by tinyfool

  If you’ve ever watched a YouTube video that felt cinematic and emotionally powerful, chances are it wasn’t the A-roll (the part where the person talks) doing the heavy lifting — it was the B-roll. B-roll refers to the supplementary footage that supports or enhances the main shot. It can include environment scenes, actions, close-ups of objects, or even symbolic visuals like light, water, or shadows that convey a certain mood. In essence, B-roll gives the audience visual “breathing space” and adds rhythm, emotion, and depth to your storytelling. Why You Need B-roll Plain talking-head videos can easily make viewers lose… Read more: 🎥 The Complete Guide to B-Roll: 10 Types Every YouTuber Should Master (with Real Examples)

  About ten days ago I decided to run an experiment — I launched a new YouTube channel where everything is made with AI. The scripts, voices, visuals, and editing are all AI-generated.

  Why a YouTube Channel with Only 30K Subscribers Can Have an 18M-View Video: The Power of Evergreen Content
  by tinyfool

  When analyzing YouTube growth, I stumbled upon a fascinating case. If you search Ba Duan Jin (八段锦, an ancient Chinese martial art) on YouTube, the top-ranked video has an incredible 18 million views. Yet, the channel that posted it only has around 30,000 subscribers, has released only 14 videos. Even more surprising—the video was uploaded over seven years ago. This example proves an important truth: video views don’t always depend on subscriber count. Instead, they depend on whether your content is relevant, discoverable, and evergreen. Why This Video Succeeded The Bigger Lesson for Creators Most creators chase viral waves: celebrity… Read more: Why a YouTube Channel with Only 30K Subscribers Can Have an 18M-View Video: The Power of Evergreen Content

  When you’re building a YouTube channel, there are generally two types of content you can make: trending and evergreen. Trending content captures a spike of attention—maybe around a viral meme, a breaking news story, or the latest gadget release. Evergreen content, on the other hand, continues to bring in viewers long after it’s published. If you want sustainable growth, you’ll need to master the art of creating evergreen content. What Is Evergreen Content? Evergreen content is content that stays relevant over time. Just like evergreen trees that keep their leaves year-round, these videos attract viewers long after the initial upload.… Read more: How to Create Evergreen YouTube Content

  Why This YouTuber Struggles After 4 Years (And What We Can Learn)
  by tinyfool

  Recently on Reddit’s r/SmallYoutubers, I saw a post titled:“Almost 4 years, only 330 subs, it’s getting rough.” The creator explained that they love making long-form video essays about video games. They’ve uploaded consistently for years, put enormous effort into production, and even had a few videos that performed really well. But overall, subscriber growth has been painfully slow — just a little over 330 after four years. They wondered: is it because I never ask people to subscribe? This question is actually very common among small creators, so I decided to look deeper into the numbers and share some thoughts.… Read more: Why This YouTuber Struggles After 4 Years (And What We Can Learn)

  Most creators dream of joining the YouTube Partner Program and earning from ads. But here’s the truth: ad revenue alone won’t make most creators rich. Even with thousands of views, the payout can be surprisingly small. The good news? There are plenty of alternative income streams you can tap into—some of which can even out-earn ads. Let’s look at three of the most powerful ones: sponsorships, merch, and Patreon. 1. Sponsorships: Work with Brands Sponsorships are one of the most lucrative ways to monetize your content.
