 Is SocialBlade correct about my network status, and can I trust it to update when I change networks' freedom family? The answer is no, and let me show you why. We are getting a lot of comments when people say, hey, I just joined Freedom, but my SocialBlade is showing me not claimed by Freedom. Does that mean I'm not partnered with you guys? The Ixons game wants to know, because on SocialBlade, here is what it says, not claimed by anybody. And it's not true, because he is in our network, he just recently joined, and SocialBlade does not update very often. What I would suggest to you, SocialBlade, is add a little message that says, last updated on, so people can see if this information is out of date, and then have a button that says update, so that you are notified when a channel changes networks, and you don't show false information like you currently do, which creates a lot of misunderstandings and confusion in the community. So how do you tell who you are partnered with? That's 100% accurate. Just go to your YouTube creator studio, and then click channel, and you'll see the network you are part with right here. This is the 100% accurate way to tell which network your channel is partnered with, not SocialBlade. Hope this helps. I promise to do the Sparta bit in today's video. Roll it! Madness. This is Sparta! Alright, here we go. Madness! You're in a lock-in contract! This is Freedom! Don't be in a lock-in contract, join Freedom, be free. Now let's get to spotlighting your deserving channels and comments. But first I wanted to share some feedback I received on Skype from a very good friend who said, if you look right here, you notice that you can see through me. Now if I take my glasses off, there is no hole. Really, I don't have a hole. But it's the glasses that are creating the hole. The lenses are bending the light. Just to show you, if I turn off the chroma key, you see what happens? It's green! Right there! Where it shouldn't be green. And I can't do anything about that. The suggestion was to use makeup to correct this issue, but I don't think any amount of makeup can correct the lens bending the light. And let's have a look at your channel, The Ixins Games, because you are powered by freedom and proudly displaying it in your channel banner. Do you have a powered by freedom in your channel banner? Why not? If not, show us your freedom love. And also I recommend, in the right side, put in Freedom. That is our main channel, youtube.com slash freedom, so people can see who you are partnered with. Alright, let's have a look at your channel trailer, Ixins Game. Okay, it's been 15 seconds and you haven't said anything about your channel. I don't know what it's about. I don't know if I should subscribe. You have some interesting music playing and a little bit of gameplay, but that's not enough. You need to tell us what we're watching and what's unique about your channel and show highlights of all of your best videos so that we can get excited and click this subscribe button on your channel. Let's have a look at your playlists. Rolling down we see you play Minecraft. You have Outlast as a game you cover, Outlast Whistleblower, Horror Games, and then on and on and on. This is fantastic. If you don't have a list of awesome playlists just like behind me, then go to your channel and add them. People need to see what categories of content you cover so they can decide whether to subscribe to you or not. Let's have a look at your video thumbnails. So here we go. You have a variety of thumbnails. They're all very colorful, all very different. Some of them have very easy to read text and others have no text. So I would encourage you to try to be more consistent. For example, this thumbnail I can't tell what it's about just by looking at it. However, this thumbnail I can. It's the so terrifying Outlast. And I would also encourage you to add your branding to these thumbnails. I think you've done that here in the bottom left corner, but you're not doing that consistently on your other thumbnails. All of this will help you build your audience and build your brand to help you grow faster. And you should do the same for your channel. Think about how my tips are relating to you so you can grow too. And click that eye up there if you want to check out the Ixons game. KaliaTC wrote, hey George, I've been doing YouTube for the past three months. And I've always wanted to become an entertainer. I love editing and interacting with my viewers. It would be great if you could give me some feedback on my channel. OK, so you have a nice banner, very clear. Hey, guys, it's guys. You're welcome back to another video today. I'm going to be announcing the 200 subscriber giveaway. Now, guys, what's going to be is $20 gift card codes. Now, what it could be is for example. Isn't that exciting? Click that eye up there in case you want to see his channel and participate in his giveaway for the $20 gift cards. And that's an excellent way to catch someone's interest. But when your giveaway ends, I hope you have a channel trailer that replaces it with what's new and exciting about your channel and showing your best clips and all that good stuff we've been talking about how to improve your channel trailer. Click that eye up there for all the tips on how to improve your channel trailer so you can improve and grow faster. Let's have a look at your playlists. You have uploads, you have a randomizer, and that's it. Obviously, my tip is put playlists that categorize your content and let people see what kind of games you cover. You may not know that you can copy playlists from any channel to your channel. One quick way to load up playlists is if you find a playlist of content you really like, you can simply copy it with just a few clicks. How? Click that eye up there that teaches you exactly how to copy any playlist from any channel to your channel and then you can modify it and change it from there. It saves a lot of time from having to add videos manually. You can just do it through that tool. Looking at your video thumbnails, they are very colorful. They have clear text. I can easily see what each thumbnail is about, what game it covers, well done. The only thing I would encourage you to do is add your own logo, your own brand, in the bottom left corner as like a watermark, a stamp, so we can see this pattern in all of your thumbnails. Hope this helps. Next comment is by MesaPlaysTV who said, hey George, I'm new to freedom. Welcome to the freedom family. We all help each other grow together as a family. That is the spirit of freedom. Back to the comment. I would like to ask you to help me promote my channel. I started my channel about seven weeks ago and I'm already at 500 subs and I'm a kid. Okay, let's have a look at your channel. Here is MesaPlaysTV behind me. You have a very simple but effective banner and you don't have a channel trailer. In fact, you don't have even playlists on your homepage. Why not? You may not know how to do this. In your channel, click this little gear icon and make sure that the customize the layout of your channel is on, this is on, this is off. I think it's off for you. Once it's on and you click save, then you'll have options to choose the channel trailer as well as create playlists as I do on my channel here. I would encourage every one of you to go to your channel and double check that you've enabled that customize option in this little gear because without it, you're gonna have a very boring homepage and you're gonna lose a lot of potential subscribers because they don't know what to expect. You're not talking to them. You're not showing them anything and they probably won't subscribe to your channel. Let's have a look at your video thumbnails. So this is an exciting thumbnail. Ah, just caught my attention right away. I don't know anything about the video but it certainly caught my attention. Let's have a look at your other thumbnails. You have a very clear style, big text, easy to read, not all of them, but I love thumbnails like this. Impossible, it challenges you. It says, I've done something impossible or do you think I can do something impossible? That's a great thumbnail. If you wanna check out this channel, just click that I right there to go to MesaPlaysTV. CandySophieq made an unusual request. He said, hey Papa George, can you say a few words about my daughter's channel and how to improve it? Big thank you. Let's have a look. So here is CandySophieq behind me, the daughter's channel. Let's have a look at your trailer. Roll it. Hello. Hello. We're on the channel. CandySophieq. It's Russian. Today we're with Sofieq. We're gonna unpack the game. Do you understand your language? Now that's Slovak, not Russian, but that's a really unique channel. I don't think I've seen a daughter's channel in Russian before. Let's have a look at your playlists. So I can't understand the language, but I can see you have playlists for different categories of content for your daughter, which is awesome. Everyone should do this on their channel. Let's have a look at your video thumbnails. So the thumbnails are clearly of your daughter in different places. I would encourage you to put this S in a consistent spot in every single thumbnail, not sometimes in the bottom left, sometimes in the top right, because people would get used to it in one place. And if it jumps around, it loses the effect of consistent branding. Do you have any additional tips to help people grow? Tell us in the comments below, because that is the spirit of freedom.
