How to get off your feet on YouTube as a gamer

This article is for people that are struggling on growing their channel on YouTube. As i have the right to talk from experience, Getting off your feet is insanely hard on YouTube. I have only recently in these past few months, launched the channel 'wumblr' and as im writing this on the night of Christmas Eve 2011, i hit 100 subscribers today. I know not much, but i feel like its my first to step to slowly getting off my feet.

Its a milestone, a small one, but yet still, a milestone. I have reached this rather small goal by putting as much dedication into my channel as most big YouTubers. Because thats all you need to do to get big, perseverance and effort.

 I upload videos every day, and i try and make them decent quality.

I also interact with my subscribers.
A big part of growing on YouTube, is interaction. This means developing a bond with your subscribers, pouring and expressing your personality throughout your videos.

Ask them questions, let them ask questions, make yourself easy to contact and put yourself on your way to be publically available at all times.

I have a constant stream of people posting on my channel comments, this is how i get my traffic, i go on sites such as MachinimaRealm and try and find people with similar interests as me, like Minecraft for example.. I then go on their channel and greet myself, and they normally respond and i have about 25 brief conversations a day with people. And they usually start to notice my videos and being to like them.

GOLDEN RULE TO SUCCESS: DO NOT SUB4SUB, EVER. EVERRRRRRR.

You have to upload regularly, and try and ensure good quality on your videos, its nice to go out your way and include an intro on your videos or a watermark. Which can easily be done, maybe check that out in a soon to be released tutorial of mine..

Another good idea, is to make friends. I try and involve myself with people with channels with around the same number of subs, as well as interacting with some bigger stars such as people that upload to Machinima and Yeousch and other community channels like that.

 A big saying in life is 'Its sometimes who you know, not what you know, that will cause your success', If you know the right people they can help you out.

I personally will try and help out anyone who approaches me, because i like to help, and i know what it feels like.

I am currently still on the harsh task of trying to get out there, but im slowly making my first steps. So i appreciate any support possible, if that means giving me a shoutout, boxxing my channel(wumblr) on your channel or just going and subscribing, every step helps me get closer to my goal of getting big.
This has been wumblr, and i wish you all a great success on YouTube, just stick at it, its what im going to do.

And maybe in a few years, and i still havent given up my drive to grow on youtube, and ive gained a larger fanbase, perhaps between 10,000 and 20,000 subscribers, ill look back at this, and think, yeah, i never gave up.

I feel like i have potential, and if people give me a chance, ill prove myself and i really feel like i can become big, just give me a chance.
