Depends on a lot. Could be instant. Could take years. Is your channel interesting, or is it another leggings haul video? Are you taking advatage of shorts? Are you ANOTHER person streaming Warzone like it's something special? Is it another channel with a blurry desk in the background? I think successful Youtubers have to really love what they do. It's not about hoping you have immediate success because you want to quit your shit retail job.

And it's not easy. Successful Youtubers put in more than 40 hours a week. It's not something you spend two hours a week into anymore.

I know some people who post one 30-40 min video a week and have 100k views every week and some post videos every day and have 10's of viewers. It's all about content, You just have to have something interesting I guess.

Videos that don't pertain to a trend will most likely never gain traction at all whilst those that do are shit content but get loads of views. Nobody is going to see episode 45 of your Fallout lets play but there's a chance they'll see your million dollar gag ball vs 10 dollar gag ball video. The organic way would be to make content you enjoy making whilst gradually making a name for yourself in said community, but there's the highly likely possibility that no one is see is going to see that shit.

Well this depends all on how you market your self.

I know people who taken years to grow to 100 subscribers and i know people who have gotten it in a couple days.

Content remains king as always

If you are looking however to grow your YouTube channel, i gained 1900 subscribers in about 5 months using a good social media agency.

now that doesn't mean you will grow just as fast, you might be able to grow faster like i said it all depends on your content at the end of the day.

But i would take a look and check out which agency would work best for you.

Apart from that there are several steps you can take to grow naturally

YouTube is Tricky it requires a lot of work, be ready to put in that work if you are really planning on growing it.

First thing is first, CONTENT! This is the shit you need to really grow on YouTube. This means getting people who will give you honest feedback on your videos to give you feedback on it.

Search engine optimization- SEO is the best way to have your video show up in a search engine. I downloaded a program called VidIQ which can help you really optimize your SEO on YouTube.

Thumbnails-Click bait but dont false click bait and don't OVER clickbait. Just add a bit to the picture to make it really pop

Share that shit everywhere. Every social media page you got you have to be ready to post your Video on there.

I again used a social media agency to grow my page as well, it has helped a lot but its not needed!

Having a twitter and Instagram followers you can post direct links to your YouTube video and send people to it! This can help a lot with growth and working with the YouTube algorithms

VIDIQ- this isnt the only program but VidIQ is great and free and it helps you optimize your SEO

Make sure your Titles and everything are great and capture peoples attention
