YOUTUBE COURSE – If you want to get more views and subscribers, grow your YouTube channel, make better videos, build a loyal audience, and make more money from YouTube… this is the video for you. This is a free YouTube course that shows how the YouTube algorithm really works, why your channel isn’t growing faster, how to build a team to help you, how to earn genuine passive income from YouTube, other revenue streams you can setup, and many more strategies to help aspiring content creators.
You see the players who dominate on YouTube – who get most of the views, most of the money, and you think: they just got lucky, right? The truth is: YouTube is a game, and right now you’re losing. But that’s because nobody has shown you the cheat codes – the secrets the top 1% of YouTubers know, but you don’t. You see, YouTube is the greatest massively multiplayer online game ever created. Millions of people around the world are playing simultaneously, each one looking to level up and gain more views and subscribers. But unlike most other online games, succeeding at the game of YouTube will give you very real rewards. With the right strategies, YouTube can make you rich, it can make you famous, and it can help you unlock the life you’ve always dreamed of. Anyone with internet access can play the game of YouTube, and everyone starts out in the exact same place: 0 views, 0 subscribers, 0 revenue. But the game has many different skills to master; editing, thumbnails, storytelling – every YouTuber has a score for all their different abilities, and to progress in the game they need to level these up higher. It’s no use being a 10 at titles if your video production quality is a 2. Unfortunately, there’s no tutorial at the start. Meaning most people are trapped at the bottom levels of the game – it’s very competitive down here, with so many people grinding hard, making video after video and getting nowhere, watching on as the elites dominate. Many choose to blame The Algorithm – which is often talked about like the God of YouTube, a magical force that controls who wins and loses. A boss that must be conquered. People even have superstitions about it – like if you don’t post enough the algorithm won’t like it and will punish you. But it’s time you knew the truth. It’s time you knew how to win the game of YouTube. (MagnatesMedia has over 1,500,000 subscribers, and in this YouTube Course you’re going to learn how you can grow your own channel fast).
