- One more thing - Subscribers on Gumroad can choose to pay for a free download if they want to support me... See this post for motivation... https://adrianvideoimage.blogspot.com/2021/03/day-123-of-my-100k-youtube-subscribers.html

7 ways to get more YouTube subscribers in 2021
Let's look at the strategies that worked for SEO expert Brian Dean of Backlinko.com. (...and compare what I have done)
- Create power playlists organized by outcomes (okay let me do this)
- Publish videos longer than 10 minutes because they rank better (not true for my Channel but let's give it a go)
- Promote another video in the end screen (done that and still doing)
- Change The Branding watermark into a subscribe button (I have that but it's not a button so let's change it)
- Focus on quality not quantity (so far so good that's the way I do it)
- Reply to every comment immediately (I am doing this consistently)
- Write a compelling Channel description that includes the channel overview, the topics covered, who your channel is for, and a call to action to subscribe. (let's change mine)
...and 10 more! See the Backlinko blog post...

PS:
What am I thankful for right now?
- New week. New challenge.
Is it the weekend yet? Let's clear clutter, spend family time, and complete what I have started before the new week arrives.
What do I need to see to be happy at the end of today?
- 👉 See all the tasks above.
What will stop me?
- Tiny tasks
How will I overcome any obstacle?
- Just do it
What's not working?
- Little tiny but important tasks and reminders.
- I left out editing sessions in my daily routine.
- I forgot to promote the iPhone 12 pro, Max.
- I ignored the capcut course posting.
How to overcome?
- Turn tiny but important tasks into blogs. Since I want more content.
- Make a daily stream on editing on twitch, FB. And maybe IG and TT.
What did I learn?
- I am repeating my mistakes. Trying to edit my live videos and wasting time.
What did I learn previously?
- Set habit goals instead of destination goals.
- Streaming and Youtubing is my lifestyle.
- Tiktok tip - If your account is getting a lot of views and you are not engaging with the comments, Tiktok will stop showing your videos to more people. So I started replying the all the comments that were left in the last 3 days.
- Whatever we post now will see fruits 3 to 6 months later. How long the fruits last depends on the topic.
- I can do one thing at a time. Cannot multi-task.
- Drop everything at 5 pm. Switch my mind. Change back tomorrow morning. 🥰
- Fold time. Inception method. Make a video in a video stream.
- The top three gimbals people are searching for DJI OM4, Zhiyun smooth 4, and Zhiyun smooth Q2.
- These are the topics with million searches. Other brand gimbal videos are slowing down my viewership.
- Should I buy the DJI OM4? Is the DJI OM5 coming out soon? The DJI OM4 was released in August 2020, so expect the DJI OM5 to be announced around August 2021. Buy DJI OM4. The number #1 talked about gimbal.
