- Hi friends! Let's talk about how to start and grow a CZcams channel in 2023! In my recent videos I've been getting a few question on how I film and edit, so this weeks video is all about how I make my CZcams videos. I tried to answer all the questions I saw and that I could think of. All the tools that I mentioned are linked below.

To anyone who is trying to grow on CZcams like I am, please don’t think she started CZcams two weeks ago and out of a sudden gained thousands of subs. She started 2 years ago and she has a lot of content on CZcams. That’s why the algorithm picked her channel and started recommending her video.
Keep going and don’t stop!
I just posted my first CZcams video and started posting some shorts (2 lol) finally after 2 years of debating doing it! So glad I started- thank you for this small reminder to push through no matter what!! 🤍
thank you, i support
girl.. I've 5 subs and I already got haters, crashed me a little bit eh send me good vibes ❤❤wish you the best
Amen
@nicoleellie Thanks for sharing! I am 43 and for 5 years I've wanted to start a channel and I finally did about 3 months ago. I'm so glad I got over my HUGE fear of being on camera and what ppl will think of me! I'm no expert, but I knew I'd learn as I go and I love it! ❤
We gained 86k subscribers over the summer, but majority came from SHORTS. So our long form content views are low and our shorts views are high. We are still blessed to see 176k. Congrats on your success
That's excellent news! Thank you for sharing. Many blessings to everyone.
Wow this is great to hear
I definitely have received more views & subscribers from CZcams SHORTS. It’s definitely a work in progress. I started this channel a month or so ago & I now have more subscribers than I thought I would. Hopefully I can see 100 subscribers soon. 🔥🫶🏽
Is that really more the purpose of shorts? To pique someone's interest to get them to your channel (and hopefully subscribe)? It doesnt sound like there's much monetary benefit from shorts.
Yes shorts are getting more views
finding you when you had 500 subs advising us not to quit has been mind blowing. seeing you win feels like I won too haha you seem so sweet and your videos do feel like Im just chatting with a friend. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU thanks for speaking on the niche thing that's been so difficult for me. you rock capital K!!! keep up the great work!!!
i swearr, i was here @200 viewing

I love watching CZcamsrs grow! I had 60 followers and now I have 120. It’s not easy but so much fun!
Much love from the Harris Family ❤
Right that was me too, when she did that video. I had all of 58 subscribers thinking well idk.
I am so happy for you!!!!!
Thanks for this❤ me I'm still stuck with 94 subscribers 😢 I hope I will get there one day
You inspire me alot. Followed this channel at 2k subscribers, I was on your channel when you made 2.4k subscribers. Today I'm still part of your success story. I know 1 day mine will grow too. Thank you for believing in smaller CZcamsrs like me😊❤
I love what you said, “people aren’t niches”
And thinking about your ideal audience. That’s so true!!! I’m so glad I found you 🥰
2 WEEKS on CZcams.
Nervous but ready for the long journey ahead.
Thank you for sharing your story. So happy for you!! 😄
I just subscribed to your channel❤ one love❤
Oh wow! Thank you@@winniewilliams55
@turnaroundstory that’s how I felt when I first started about 6months ago. It’s a learning process everyday. Continue to strive for greatness. What type of channel do you have?
You exude peace and authenticity. Well done girl 🎉
Peace and authenticity! She's good at it
Oga Nick, I sight you 🙌
@@biyinuges Hey!!! I hail 😊👍

1st thing- I love your hair that way! 2nd- your video went viral because of all the things-the person talking, the editing, the rhythm, the honesty, and it was just. your. time! Congrats again!
wow! here I am thinking I'm coming to support another small CZcamsr and say thanks for your inspiring video only to see how much you've grown since then ‼️ literally a testament to everything you said in your "viral" video. 🎉❤
Is the pay on CZcams that big? Cos I do think the compensation is just little.
What's the remuneration like pls?
I’m so happy for you, very well deserved. Still stuck at 140 subscribers, hopefully it grows soon❤️
youtube.com/@Isthxtgolden?si=8eeqc80JZus90ZzR
Awesome. Congratulations. One thing I know is that everyone’s journey will always different and you never gave up at all. This is lovely. 🎉
everyone’s journey id truly always different so lets keep pushing forward
I’m at 300 subscribers and the ‘It’s Worth It’ video definitely kept me going! You’re doing great and it’s very well deserved😌
@asiamasengesho I am your newest subscriber! I only have 24 subbies strong and still pushing.
@@SocialTwis hey girllll, you just got yourself another subscriber! Keep grinding❤️
@@asiamasengesho thanks! I feel stuck at 40subbies. I need help 😭
Awwn, and see how much your channel has grown since this comment❤️ I love your contents and I'm subscribing right away. I am at 292 subscribers 🤭
@@ChibuzorJoie it’s only up from here girl❤️
I literally made a CZcams for the same reason! I think having a youtube or just creating content is kind of like a digital bio/diary. It’s also a great way to keep track of your personal development. So excited for this journey and happy that I came across this video 🫶
Totally agree with this! Totally don't see making my videos as a waste (little views, followers), with this mindset and approach.
Will try this out.
This is my why & what keeps mf goin and growing on this platform😩
Watching this gave me so much motivation to keep going! I have been stuck at the same sub and view count range and seeing no growth even after following all the recommendations people say can be discouraging. BUT I GOT THIS!!
Super duper motivational
19:46 For me, the reason your video resonates with people is because it’s so antithetical to the typical advice you get about why someone should start a CZcams channel. Most of the videos on this topic tend to focus on the material benefits of being a creator (like creating a passive income stream *cringe*). You focused though on there being value in the creative process, which was refreshing to hear.
I believe that most people who want to do CZcams and don’t succeed fail because they don’t have anything intrinsically motivating them to create. When you set goals that are within your control, like you have, you set yourself up to stick with this platform over the long run. In doing so, you’ll outlast everyone else who’s trying to grow fast, but not sustainably.
To everyone watching this that just started CZcams like me, may our channels be a success!!
I’ve recently started to just follow you & you truly are an inspiration. I am proud of your growth & I aspire to one day have a CZcams channel that I can share with an audience that can be of value to them as well. You are doing wonderfully & please continue doing the work that you are destined to be molded in💗 much love PEACE
Congratulations! So happy for you and well deserved!
Saw your video and thought it was great coming from someone who did not have a lot of subscribers. Things are changing...😂
You deserve every bit of growth you've receive.
Wow🥹 thank you!
I’m so proud of you, hard work really does pay off.
Seriously so proud of you! Enjoy the climb! ♥️
Congratulations!! 🥳🥳 So happy that I found you before all this happened, now I feel incredibly happy to see you get the success that you rightfully deserve!! I've been planning to start my CZcams journey too, wishing you all the success! 🎉🎉
If only you knew how much I needed this video today especially the "Niche" part... I've tried it at times when I felt I had to and it left me unhappy with my video creating.. I just want to create and not always think what will make this video do well. Great reminders very authentic and helpful.. Thank you!
Def agree with that part im rebranding my channel now to open my topics cause i am multifaceted
Lol right! I can not be placed in a box!
Love this for you, girl! Excited to follow your journey 💕✨
I don't know how I found you, but I'm glad I landed here. I just started in June and have only 29 subscribers. It's great to know that hard work could be recognized all of a sudden. Congratulations to you 🎉
I’m glad you found me too😊 thank you!
@jazzymotivation I couldn’t agree more consistency is the key. We have to continue striving. What type of channel you have?
Enjoyed this. We have been doing CZcams a little over 3 years and are still learning. It’s definitely a learning process.
Good for you! Keep going!
Keep pushing don’t stop!
This was honestly the motivation I needed seeing you blow up has given me hope for my CZcams channel
I’m so happy I just found your channel! I started my channel early this year, and the growth is very slow! You have encouraged and inspired me to keep going! ❤️
I've been here for over 10 yrs and it's not easy...never give up..develope a thick skin...have an open mind and keep having fun...
Thanks for sharing this with us...Blessings and much love to you ❤❤❤
Thank you for this. This is great! I'm sooo thankful you decided to start your channel.
Definitely one of the most practical and inspiring videos I've watched in a while as someone with under 500 subs! Thank you so much for sharing
You’re so so welcome!
Congrats on getting monetized! Your talk about remix I totally agree after starting my CZcams channel I'm always looking at other creators and seeing how they edit to portray their story I get inspired and think how I can put my own spin on it. Great video keep it up!
So happy your hard work is paying off 🎉 congratulations! And thank you for sharing this video ❤
Congrats girl!🎉 Praying for my big breakthrough soon too🙏
This is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much for this! You have inspired me to take yt more serious! And I love the saying “people are not a niche”!!
Congratulations on reaching over 12k Sub!!! This is a great follow up video. This video was full of great tips and advice that I will be using for my video. Continued success, you deserve it!!
You deserve this girl!!! Rooting for you 🫶🏽💕✨
For most Ms. Rae congratulations on your success on reaching 10K+ subscribers and becoming monetized. Your personality makes your video pop, and they are easy going and heartwarming. So, Ms. Rae keep growing your channel and always bring your adorable smile to your videos.
Congratulations on hitting 10k subscribers!!! Well 12k now!!! That's amazing! Watching your videos have been very inspiriting. I finally shot my first CZcams video the other week (after talking about staring a channel for over 4 years) and now I just have to figure out how to edit. Wishing you so much success and abundance!
Congratulations girl, you deserve it.🎉❤
I found you through your viral video too and I LOVE what you do. ❤ I love how calm you are and how much you share. This is love. This is community. This is so, so wonderful! I also always have to remind myself, when I look at those stupid numbers, that I make videos mostly for myself, my creativity and for fun. It's a wonderful bonus if someone likes what I'm doing, but I'm not doing this for money. This is an important point to learn when starting with CZcams. Earning money from this will probably take years... and if you don't have fun with what you're doing, you won't do this for years ❤
Congratulations. I just subbed and launched my channel last week. Ground zero! But so happy to be here and learn from some of the best here!
That was so crazy to watch! Sooo inspiring ! Tbh what I noticed was that your storytelling and editing was on point and also your smile and energy!
I like how you present things. It’s your gentle style. I’m almost at 10,000 and it’s been so slow to get there. It’s encouraging to see how fast you grew with authenticity.
Thank you! And congrats on your slow and steady growth🥳
I started my channel initially in 2020 during the pandemic, and I fell off. I hope I can get back into creating as I truly did enjoy being creative and having fun with all the trials and errors. This video was helpful!
Girl you just pushed me even more ❤
Congratulations! That is amazing. Working on our first 500 😊
Congrats in advance!
Mine still not up to 100 😅
I've been waiting for this video from youuuuu 😍 I'm so happy and proud of you! Keep it up girl, you're crushing it!!!
I'm so happy for you! This is awesome! I love your style of talking head videos while sharing great info. Your style has been an inspiration to me as I shoot my videos! 🙏🏾
I love the advice on niches! I just posted my first video on Friday and I am so glad that it is more advised now to make videos for a target audience not necessarily a category!
Congrats on posting your first video!
I love watching you and your growth, you don’t know how you’ve motivated me, you’ve made all of us ‘small creators ‘look at CZcams and creativity in a whole different angle.
You are also so loveable, your light shines through to us, keep winning , 20k growth is a couple of days away.
I've seen a thousand videos with similar titles but you really come across better than most! I appreciate your honesty, your sincerity, and your editing style! I wish CZcams would push more smaller channels like yours rather than the flavor of the month channels that are all prodcution but no substance channels.
Wow thank you! Glad you liked it
Yes i as well thought her video was great
I love seeing you grow and appreciate the knowledge remember us OGs when you hit 1 million. It’s coming girl!!!
Thankyou for this video Kamillah it was very motivating and inspiring. Also congratulations on your growth.
Yasss so proud of you, love how it all came together for you 🥰
Great to see the growth your channel has had! Motivating stuff for a new channel like ours. Thanks for helping to inspire us to take that first step!
I'll subscribe to your channel as well 🎉
I am happy for you!!! ❤ I love seeing small youtube creators get their subscribers ✨
Thanks for making this video! I've been stuck at 5k for a while and this made me want to go harder!
Congrats, this is very inspirational. CZcams is a struggle for small channels. I been stocked at 306 subs for a long time not and its very discouraging. Thank you for this video. You shared more knowledge about CZcams than channels with hundreds of thousands of subs. Keep up with awesome videos, will be following your journey to 100k. All best!
I am so happy for you and your growth this is truly inspirational to me! Can't wait to see where this youtube journey takes you from here.
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
i love the transparency here. this is really inspiring for my own CZcams journey. I've seen your other videos and I'm like immediately yes!
Love love love this for you! So much value and heart. Really gave me nuggets not only for creating content on CZcams but for how learning new skills can lead to so many things..🎉❤
Congratulations Kamillah. Inspirational video for all of us!
Thank you!
So happy for you Kamillah! I watched your How CZcams changed my life video and it was so inspiring! I have video saved in a folder for future reference when I start my channel.
Thanks Gabriel! So glad my video could inspire you😊
This is actually very inspiring just praying we all grow the way We want, cause We all put in alot of efforts
🎉Congratulations 🎉 And Thank you for being so genuine in your videos! I appreciate your great advice and hope to meet you at your first creator meet up!😉🙏🏻Blessings!
Congratulations on all of your success love!!! This is my sign to finally sit down and learn color grading lol. Thank you for all your tips, I have been trying to hone in on a shot list for certain videos I do too. Talk about timely.
Congratulations on your success! Well deserved, love the quality of your videos!
Thanks girl 🥰
I love how you talk, sound so down to earth and genuine.
Thank you for the motivation I needed to keep my channel going today. I appreciate you!
YES GIRLLL!!! So so happy for you 🥳 well done xx
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
You've inspired me to just continue to improve my videos. I've been doing videos for 13 years already and have felt so stick but I'm motivated all over again. Thank you! You gained a new subscriber
Wow! So proud of you for continuing. I feel the same about improving mine and being better at staying consistent after about 5 years (not consistent) but look at you with over 1k and those viewing are viewing for a reason. You deserve this and it’s coming. If we stop, it won’t ever come but if we keep going it moves as we do. Let’s get to it, sis!!! ❤❤❤ Good luck! 🫶🏾
@hargrovehouse4 thank you, yes! It's been quite a journey but I'm not planning on giving up! I wish you the best as well ❤️
I appreciate how authentic you are. That's why I subscribed.
I will definitely keep pushing. Thank you so much for this.
You did a FANTASTIC job on this video! I'm in the process of filming a video documenting my first year on CZcams, and your video definitely made me feel like I need to up my game!
That sounds like a really good video!
Great to see how your persistence paid off! ❤ I’m so happy for you!!
Thank you so much!!
I love your simplicity and authenticity. Thanks for sharing and congratulations on your progress. Now 13k + Subscribers.
Well deserved! I made a whole video dedicated to how you changed my life! Thank you again!
This is just the beginning of greater things to come…I’m rooting for you Girlll 🙌🏾❤
Hey
This story was so inspiring! thanks for all of your advice. Hope we all win this year!
Editing for me is by far the hardest. Especially finding b-rolls. I have to find a way to simplify that process because it takes soooooo long. Congrats on taking off, I’m right behind you
This is so amazing!!! Congratulations on your success 🎉
This is amazing and honestly so inspiring. It shows that it can actually happen. Thanks for encouraging us out here!❤May your channel and life continue to prosper! God bless!
Hi Kamillah! I first found your content through your viral "CZcams Changed My Life" video and I couldn't stop watching. The way you explain your CZcams journey is so comforting to hear as I see many videos of CZcamsrs gaining thousands of subscribers in only a few months - it made me feel like I should keep grinding and enjoy the journey; not the destination. Btw I also love your smile, it's so pretty 🤗💞
Subscribe
This is the thing I love about CZcams! Just one video changes everything...so long as you keep going!
Wowwwww!!! You deserve all the attention you're getting and more! You're so genuine and your personality really shines through in every video you make. I'm so excited to see where this journey takes you
The video that you made motivating us and telling us not to quit, was very genuine i mean im not surprised it gained so many subscribers. I am very happy for you.
Thank you!
Goddamn that editing tip at 16:51 is freaking top tier. Thank you thank you. Also you framing the niche into target audience and then tying it to making videos to friends who would also be into that video was 🤯
Helps me look at how I show up for my YT fam & in this community a lot better in conclusion😩
Congratulations!!! I cannot wait til I reach that point!
As someone who just started a CZcams channel, your growth is inspiring! Love how real and transparent you are about your CZcams journey 🥰 Keep it up girl!!
Great video, very informative and I love how you explained everything. Nowadays the easiest way to grow subscribers is to make use of services providing real likes and views. This way it is easy to ramp up your social media presence from the very beginning, and you don't have to wait for a period of time to get popular or something like that.
Which tools is that? Does it work for every social media platform?
Yes, you can use it for pretty much every social media, it's just that I use it for yt and fb the most.
it is famester, I forgot to mention it above
I love that your videos are very much relatable and you are right about growing on CZcams, you never know which video will work out it’s CZcams magic, just keep doing what people love. Thanks hun, I’m certain this miracle will happen soon for me
Hey
youtube.com/@Isthxtgolden?si=8eeqc80JZus90ZzR
I love your calm energy. So refreshing. I'm starting from scratch so been watching a lot of these lately but this one is different because of the energy. It's to mimicking that overly excited and loud vibe that's everywhere. And thank you so much for being honest about not really knowing how you are your channel. A lot of these YTers act like they know when they've grown their channels but the truth is, it's all juts speculation. There are some amazing content creators out there who aren't getting the views they deserve. There are factors for sure, but no one really knows the complete YT cocktail recipe. Thank you!
I'm really glad you showed how much effort you put into your videos. You were bound to blow up and I'm so glad you did because you give so many of us hope. Also - I soooo agree with your viewpoint on niching. It's a longer route not to niche, but ultimately more freeing. W video once again, keep it up :)
Congratulations!I have been enjoying your videos and encouragements
You’re awesome! Congratulations on the subs!
I just made 100 subscribers after giving up on my first channel back in January. I am always grateful for videos like this because everyone has a unique perspective. I just started taking the editing process more seriously and a shot list has made editing so much easier. It is easy to see how you gained 10k, well deserved you can see the effort you put into your videos. Thanks for the tips!
Never give up 💕
czcams.com/users/shortsReDMjxvtD_g?feature=share
I’m about to subscribe to your channel :) I’m new to CZcams as well. I’ve been doing this for a couple months now. I started a couple years ago with my pregnancy Journey & now our content is more consistent. You got this!
@@lifeoftheharriss6247 just subbed to your channel! I have a toddler as well! Good luck on your journey. We got this 💪🏽
Don’t give up. What I have learnt is make every video better than the last one.
Good job on this video! It's great to see you documenting your process and I know it will help a lot of people. CZcams isn't magic, it's just a lot of small tasks added together, and I think you do a good job of showcasing how others can accomplish the trick.
That’s such a good way to put it! “Lots of small tasks added together”
That is definitely a great way to put it.
your energy is so soothing but radiant
Aw thank you!
