Get your own step-by-step, day-by-day plan of how to grow your YouTube channel fast. See what we did day-by-day to get faster growth. I’ll share analytics so you can see how a YouTube creator grows their channel
I’ve had my own vlog YouTube channels I grew from scratch in 2018, 2021 and 2022 (important because what worked years ago on YouTube doesn’t always work now). I work with dozens of companies and manage other YouTube channels so every day I see what is working, what isn’t and how to grow faster on channels in all niches, mistakes (we all make them), wins and losses.
It’s not often you get to see inside analytics of channels, come and check it out. We’ll look at both the niche of vlogging and in to other channels too, to see what’s needed from how often you should upload when you launch, video length (more ads, more money, more shares), understanding YouTube as a business so you can manipulate the algorithm and get more impressions by YouTube.
YouTube is not easy and it’s not quick, ask any creator. But with a solid plan and understanding more from research and studying other creators, you have the best chance of faster and more successful growth.
Hello and welcome to this SPEED GROWTH course; the course where I show you step by step, day by day what I did to grow my channel to monetisation in just 4 weeks and to be earning over $2000 a month in just ad revenue in 3 months. Follow what I did and you can do it too!
I have a channel now I grow and test to pass on all the knowledge to you. I share my growth and earnings on screen in my YouTube analytics, see those analytics and what made me grow.
This is EXACTLY what you can expect in the upcoming sections of this course. See inside my analytics and I'll show you exactly how I grew so you can too.
First get through the first 2 sections all about YouTube and how it works. Then, we'll get in to the section where we make you a growth plan based on mine which you can tweak to fit your niche. A day-by-day, week-by-week plan on what's needed to really grow YouTube now!
Slow me down, change your resolution if you have slow internet and how to download the course resources!
WARNING THIS IS A LOT OF INDEPTH INFORMATION! This will be broken down in later lectures, don't worry, this is just an overview.
In this course you get direct access to my analytics, I share EVERYTHING! You see what I (someone who grew a channel recently) did step by step, day by day so you can see what to do (and they we create you your own growth calendar later in the course; what you need to do day by day to emulate what I did).
This is not purely YouTube theory you can get anywhere, this is showing and sharing exactly what I did and showing you inside my YouTube analytics.
It's everyones biggest fear and the most common question I get asked about - presenting on YouTube. Here I will show you real-world examples of successful channels that have worked without a "professional" presenting style and how you don't actually need that for YouTube.
Some channels succeed without any presenting at all and I will show you those (depends on the channel type you want to create). You can easily get better at it and edit to help you seem more natural on camera - I'll explain all!
Don't worry about having little or no experience filming or editing before you start. This is YouTube, not TV. I'll show you real examples on YouTube of how actually NOT being too professional can help your channel grow and create a 'real' quality that people are searching for on YouTube. I'll show you how I and some of the biggest creators on the platform do this and how you can too.
It's time someone got real with you! The likelihood is you wont be Mr Beast and have millions of subscriber s in 1 year... it took him 7 years to get there. I can show you exactly what I did you get to monetised and able to support myself financially with a YouTube channel in just several months and how you can too. But you don't need millions of subscribers to do this. You'll see my earnings with just 5000 subs and how its views and location of those views that matter, not subscriber count.

There is so much online about the YouTUbe algorithm, and the truth is no one knows 100% what it is, and it more than likely consists of multiple algorithms like instagram does. It's personal. If I search "blue hat" in YouTube and you do, we'd get some different results. Yes, it's still watch time over click-through-rate (all explained) but it's more than just that! It's also how much money is possible to be made (number of ads with video length) that will affect YouTube sharing your content too. I have tested this with different thumbnails, titles, video length, number of ads... see my results here.
NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THIS! Making a video that appeals to viewers is half the battle. How many times have you seen a video that was great but it has low views? It should do great, but it doesn't...
Making a video that is appealing to viewers is part of what's needed; the other part is making a video that YouTube want. If YouTube want you video, they'll share it, they have the power to give it impressions and then it will get views. But what is it YouTube wants... they're a business, they want to make money (show ads). So, how can we make sure we give YouTube videos they can make money from?...
Making a channel and uploading a bit of something, a vid about something else, something different is one of the most damaging things you can do for a channel. I have tested this, I show you in this lecture. I have a travel channel and I uploaded a video about the cameras I film with... it had a huge affect on views and damage to the channel. See what happened and understand why it's so important to have as tight a niche as possible (give the subscribers what they subscribed for!).
Quite simply, if an 8 minute video got 100% watch time and a 30 minute video got 50%, the 50% watch time video still got viewers to watch 15 minutes, more than the 8minute video at 100%. Also, it means more like 5 ads can play in that video, not the 2/3 in the 8 minute video. If YouTube can play more ads, make more money and it keeps a viewer on YouTube for longer... which video y=would they rather promote and give impressions to? I'll show you the answer here from my testing.
No matter what, no one is clicking an uninteresting topic. But there is a slight difference between Topic and "packaging". Your topic maybe be one thing, what the video is about over all, but dressing your topic correctly to appeal to more people is what's needed
Here we'll look at when I have changed Thumbnails and Titles and seen a huge spike in a videos success. What made that title attractive, what are the tips and tricks and what's needed this year that works now and what do we see on YouTube that would no longer be as affective on the platform as time moves on
The big question. It's no secret and I explain how and why a lot of content is needed initially to let YouTube understand who to share you with. But how much content is needed, for how long and when can you start to make less videos and be just as successful
Let me show you all the videos that did well for me and their simple structure. We'll also look at some other channels and how the structure of a video and keeping that throughout your channel is key to constant growth. This can actually be a very simple way to grow and it makes it so much easier for you to produce content
The analytics is giving you ALL the answers for what you need to grow. Let me show you how to understand them, what I look for and how I use hat data to keep making videos that hit and get you growth.
I tested this... it was a disaster, see my results. Once you have a niche, keep to that, the tighter the better. If a subscriber came for one type of video and subscribed, if you then put out a different type of video that flops (because it's not what they subscribed for) this can have a really negative affect of your channels CTR and impressions given.
It can be a daunting concept... "what do I make my videos about, and what will get the most clicks". You HAVE to launch right. Learn here what I did to find what to make videos about for my niche and how you can develop a plan to get a strong video list to follow too.
This step will help you not only technically learn your creative software and hardware but also to get a better understanding of how to film faster and with purpose so you can edit faster and ultimately create more.
Here's a hack I used to get better at editing fast. You don't need to create a Hollywood movie every time, this is YouTube... see what I mean here
See what I did step by step, day by day and week by week to get monitised in just 19 days and continue to grow. See my mistakes and my wins so you can follow this plan and grow even faster! See my analytics, I share all!
Needing to make a lot of content early on is a scary thing, but don't worry. Follow this video structure plan and it'll make it easier and faster to create the video content you NEED to grow
Getting to this point is crucial. You'll see in my stats that the day I was monitised; how YouTube then took over and gave my content more views (as they were now making more money from my videos). This is how you grow!
See my analytics and whats needed after you are monitized. How should you now change your videos to ensure continued growth
I discovered that YouTube loves these types of videos. It's more profitable for me to make these kinds of videos and less often than the pre monitised type and more often... but this will only work after you are monitised.
If you are not making YouTube to make money and you just want to grow subscribers... do this
Here it is! Now you have seen how I did it, here is your day by day calendar plan on how you can grow as fast - faster than I did. You will be able to fill this out with videos and dates to produce and edit these, have a 2-3 month plan and understand how you will be able to do this and see the expected growth. A fail-proof plan for you STEP BY STEP!
Understand more fully how to tweak the calendar for you exact niche and circumstance. A full plan for launch and fast growth!
Depending what you make videos about will affect your CPM and RPM. This means if you appeal to a USA audience and in the beauty niche, your earnings will be different to someone creating travel videos in Thailand. Your audience and niche will affect how much you will earn and growth.
Actually... looking at old videos on YouTube and comparing their growth to today is like looking at athlete stars from 150 years ago and thinking they're a lot slower than today's athletes. The platform is very different now, viewers behaviour is different. I have tested this platform in 2019 and throughout until today. What worked then does not work now and growth is very different.
Make the best videos for YOU. Who you appeal to based on who you are is key. Don't try to fit another type or niche, authenticity is key
Get inside my analytics and what I have learnt using my channel to test all theories... what REALLY works on YouTube. No guessing, I tested it all
What are the mistakes I made and if I could do it now, what would I do... so you can do it and grow faster.
