 Freedom, time for another 3X spotlight. We're gonna try to do this one a little bit quicker. The previous videos were like 15 minutes each and I have a feeling that a good portion of you guys were gone by the last time, so we're gonna try to roll through this one. All right, first thing we gotta do, we gotta jump to the desktop and look at the comments in Freedom Videos. Let's go ahead and do that now. All right, so here we are in the comments of one of the previous videos where we did the 3X spotlight. What we're gonna do is we are going to go ahead and hit show more and we are going to select randomly, review me, the broken emerald. The very first thing that I notice here on your channel is that your intro here, your channel trailer, if you will, it has your intro on it. I don't know. I've actually seen studies that say that that's both a good thing and a bad thing. It's really one of those things that there's no real proper answer at the moment, so just keep that in mind. Next thing I'm noticing is, well, you've got some playlists here. Not necessarily a lot. YouTube does allow you quite a few more than this. Let's check and see if you have more playlists here. You do have a few other playlists that you could be showing off. Not sure if that's an intentional thing or not for you to not want to display it here. I like the consistency of your branding. The broken emerald, that's your thing and you've got it as your avatar and your backdrop here, as well as a couple of your thumbnails. The only issue I see with this is it's not carried through to all of your videos. Here, we don't see that the broken emerald anywhere here. You could possibly also communicate the broken emerald without using the text, possibly by splitting your emerald or whatever the case is, just food for thought. Your thumbnails are mostly engaging and inviting. They're very quick compelling. But then again, we've also got examples like these that do not show that. Okay, so I always check out everybody's about page. Let's check out yours. Not horrible, not bad. Could definitely use some more text. Always more text. Never be scared to have more text. Another thing I would tell you is that these are not clickable. Now in your descriptions, if you put HTTPS, it will be clickable. But here in the about page, no, not so much. Also, dude, bro, Adfrida, Adfrida. Overall, it's not a horrible channel. In fact, it's got a lot of things going for it. I would look at more visually appealing ways to communicate your branding. Here, it looks like this image has been blown way up and it's a little bit out of focus. It's a little bit grainy. You're on a good path. You just gotta refine some things. Okay, so from here, we are going to go ahead and scroll again and Neilerman 121. Let's go ahead and take a look at you. Neilerman 121. Let's go ahead and see what you've got going on here. All right, I like the fact that your recent uploads are here on your main page. You might wanna look and see if the vertical list is really how you wanna display that. You could possibly get away with just a list like this or like this. I know that the vertical list gives you one extra video that you can showcase. However, I don't know. It does cause a little bit more scrolling and it could hurt your chances of people scrolling down and checking out your other stuff. Just food for thought. As far as your channel trailer, now I'm not playing audio because I don't know what music you may or may not have used. Looks like there are a few games that I've seen that you play that aren't represented here, but it looks very interesting. Okay, so speaking of other games and interestingness, these thumbnails, bro, awesome. They're very engaging, very interesting. I like this. I like how well communicated everything is. I love the fact that you've got a consistent branding here, your cartoon face. I assume that's a cartoon face because if that's your real face, seriously, bro, there's a doctor for that. I love the fact how well everything is branded, your part 10, your part one. I wouldn't tell you as far as the metadata goes. Adding part one, part two, part 10, or episode 10 to the end of your video title could help you out. Don't make it long, just make it short. EP period one, EP period three, part one, part two, part 10, part 12, whatever at the very end can actually help you with related video traffic and the like. Let's go ahead and take a look at some of your videos here. Let's take a look at more text. Gotta be more text. We need more text and I say that as I get a text on my phone. Wow, okay, never be scared of text. Remember, text is how YouTube decides who and where your videos should go to. If you've put in all the work here, just filming, you've spent 30 minutes at the very minimum filming this video. Don't be scared to spend 10 minutes doing the text, telling people what your video is about, telling them what happens in the video, and whatnot like that. All right, so looks like your, looks like your tags here are wonderful. Actually a lot of really good things going on here. Multiple word tags, you've got a fair number of them and everything seems to be relevant to what's going on in the episode. Okay, so let's go ahead and find something else here. Let's check out your channels. Dude, bro, bro, bro, what? No freedom, freedom, add freedom. Seriously, if you're watching this right now, go ahead, just tell him, add freedom. Your discussion tab is completely empty. Try to get your fans to use this because showing your fans that you are actively engaged here is just as important as on your comments. A lot of times you'll see that people in the discussion tab just kind of spam. They'll try to get a message to you on the slide here or they'll advertise themselves here and that, again, with my phone, goodness. If you are engaging your fans here, if you're telling your fans, hey, I'm wondering should I cut my hair? Let me know in the discussion page on my channel. If you're actively engaging people, it will drown out a lot of the people trying to self-promote, trying to do whatever it is people do. And your about section, gotta always check that. Not bad, not horrible. More text would be nice. Remember, this is how YouTube recommends you for things like this. Of course, a lot of times this is huge YouTubers, but there is that slight chance. Not only that, but when I hit subscribe, there's always that box that comes up going, would you also like to subscribe too? And that's where you really wanna be. If you were playing a lot of games such as your Silent Hills series or whatever, coming up in related searches and related subscriptions for people who do those, that could help you out a lot. It might only amount to between one and 10 subscribers a month, but still that's a valid source of growth. All right, one more. Show more. Okay, Death Lives Gaming, let's check this out here. I am seeing a lot of color, a lot of marketing colors. That's a lot of blues, a lot of oranges, a lot of reds. Very click compelling on your avatar, very click compelling on your banner. I absolutely love that. Looking into your channel trailer here, of course, sound off because I don't know what music is or is not used, actually. I am liking what I am seeing. Here, you'll notice that Death Lives Gaming included a boilerplate, and that's what we call this bit of text that never changes between videos, but it's included above the fold. Now, the fold is the read more section, but above the fold, he's got his boilerplate and it continues down from there, but the most important links are right here. All right, now also featured channels, Freedom, yay! So, going into videos, let's check out the thumbnails here. I love the marketing colors, love it, love it, love it. Very blue, very orange, very red, almost looks like a Reese's Pieces wrapper, which is a good thing, which is a good thing. Candy is a great way to test and see if your marketing colors are good. Most candy wrappers do use excellent marketing colors to grab your attention. All right, so you're playing Wolfenstein. I love how everything is very well communicated. Not only that, you use very similar fonts. If you'll see here, Wolfenstein, the new order, and part 39 Uber Gameplay is very similar, if not darn near the exact same font. I love that. Keep doing what you're doing with the thumbnails. That is beautiful. Okay, on your playlists, a lot of playlists, they look like they're being kept up to date. Let's actually go into one of your videos here. One specific thing that I am looking for. Check the description. Ah, Risen 3 Titan Lord's playlist. You, sir, have been watching these 3X spotlights and taking notes. This is wonderful. I would like to see possibly a few more tags. Don't be scared about using too many tags as long as they are relevant. Spamming tags has nothing to do with the amount it has to do with relevancy. As long as your tags are relevant, you can fill the box until it won't take any more. You're engaging with your fans, you're talking, you're chatting. Maybe not replying to everyone, but still very nice to see. DeathLivesGaming, you just earned yourself a subscriber. I hope that this video has been helpful for you. If it has, let us know in the comment section down below. Also, don't be scared to check out these channels for yourself in the description. You don't necessarily have to subscribe. That would be cool. However, going over saying hi, saying you got spotlighted on Freedom Central. Just go into the comments, shout. Let everyone know that you're there. You're from the Freedom family. And yeah, that would be really cool. Anyways, till next time, I'm Anthony. Like, subscribe, comments, please. Let's discover freedom.
