The forums now have over 125,000 members and all of those people can give you feedback and give you tips and advice. It's 126,000 members as you can see behind me. Let's spotlight some of your amazing comments. Oran1 wrote something all of you should learn which is how to use the YouTube timestamp. Do you see what he did? t equals 10m47s. He did that, so when I click this link it jumps to 10 minutes and 47 seconds into the video where his outro begins. I've been asking you to send us links to your amazing outros down there in the comments below, but many of you have not been putting in the time code. Many of you have just been saying here's the link and jump to five minutes and four seconds. But now you can put in like t equals 5m4s just by adding this question mark and that format right after your link. Is that helpful? Did you know about this YouTube timestamp? Tell us in the comments below if you have any other tips to help people grow because that is the spirit of freedom. We all help each other grow together as a family, as many of you freedom family already know. So let's have a look at Oran1's outro. Roll it! See? Jump to 10m47s. So it's a nice outro. It gives you two options. Now let's see if Oran, you listen to my tip about opening this in a new window. Click. It didn't open in a new window. Hi, I'm James here. I'm working. And the issue with that is if I want to look at your other video that you posted in your outro, I can't because if I click the back button it'll start at the beginning of your video. So always check that box in the spotlight annotation that says open link in a new window if you have more than one video in your outro. If you only have one video don't check that because there's nothing to come back to to open again. Next comment spotlight goes to that Juan Gamer who said, so I decided to use this account when it comes to commenting. And he gave us his outro that uses music from the levels that were played in the episode. Very creative. And see what he does? He says it starts at 1831. You could have used the tip to make this link go directly to 1831 instead of having me wait and look for 1831 and click it to go there. Okay, let's roll it. So that's the music from the level that he just played. Now let's see if you listen to my tip. If I click this it should open in a new tab. Click. It does. The benefit of that is I can go back to the previous tab and I can see exactly where I left off and I want if I want to click the next video I can. And if I want to click the next video I can. Well done. I encourage all of you to do that. You use more than one video. Ooh, Sega in your outro. Next comment spotlight goes to PhoenixNCSAirsoft who wrote, Joining Freedom was probably one of the best things that ever happened to my channel. Great to hear. He pours his heart and soul into making videos and Freedom came along with position music and we've been helping him grow exponentially. More than doubled his subscriber count. What is position music? For those of you who don't know, well just go to positionmusic.com and click that shiny freedom button to get started. It's fully integrated with your freedom account and you can get all of this music for free for use in your videos and live streams. And all you need to do is click on placements to see all the places position music is already being used like X-Men, Dragon Age, Uncharted 4, Batman and all these different movies and video games that you now can get full access to just by heading on over to positionmusic.com and click that shiny freedom button to sign in with your Freedom account. Back to the comment. So Phoenix was also saying that speaking of outros here's an example of his and he didn't use the time code but let's find it anyway. Yes this is it. Pretty epic. Sounds like position music. Let's click this link. Oh it opens in a new window. See that's not so good because you only have one video here so now I have two tabs where I didn't need that second tab so don't do that if you have only one video. But I love the music. Good choice of music and let's have a look at your channel because you grew so quickly while you were with Freedom. Let's see what you've done well so everyone else can learn from what you've done. Here's your channel trailer. Let's have a look. Looks like airsoft. And this is position music again in the background. Let's see if I'm right. Read more. Yes position music. Position music. Position music. He's got quite a few position music tracks in this trailer. Holy you really went wild with music. Great let's skip ahead a little bit. So my suggestion to you would be don't put a full episode as your channel trailer. This is 16 minutes long. Really do create a short introduction to your channel. Answer the question why should I subscribe to watch your videos in the first 10 seconds if you haven't caught my interest. You haven't done a good job because people on YouTube have a very short attention span so if you don't catch their interest in 10 seconds many of them will just move on to the next channel and you don't want that so try to do your channel trailer as I've suggested and I think you'll grow even faster. Let's have a look at your video thumbnails. So your video thumbnails are very consistent. You have a good text very clear and easy to read and quite a variety of thumbnails some for gaming some for airsoft. Well done. I don't have any suggestions for your thumbnails. You even use your branding the little skull in the top left corner to reinforce who you are. Oh we forgot to look at your playlists and guys think about your own channel as we go over these reviews to improve what you have. So you're doing airsoft adventures as a playlist great my old music endeavors as a playlist great uploads as a playlist that's it that's a great start but I think you should add more playlists especially featuring some of your best games and create maybe categories of here's all of my Call of Duty videos or my World of Warcraft videos if you make those types of videos I encourage you to use up all of the slots that YouTube allows you to on your channel homepage for example if you go to youtube.com slash freedom we use all of our slots and I'll show you how if you scroll down you'll see we put up our uploads as the first so anyone can see our latest videos right away then we have highlights which show all the things that I think everyone should watch then we show freedom in the Philippines because I am in the Philippines and you can see what life is like and why George moved to the Philippines right there you can see the best of freedom you can see the freedom fact FAQ the position music FAQ all the channel trailers that we featured in a playlist from you freedom family as well as just great videos that we've come across in the freedom family and videos using position music in the freedom family and get more views has a lot of tips on how to grow faster on YouTube and see I can't have any more I can't have any more of these playlists I've used them all up and I think so should you in your channel hope this helps do you have any additional tips for everyone to grow faster tell us down there in the comments below and who am I I am George Sunpai Papa George Professor George George master and a few other creative names the freedom family has given me and I love all of them because I love the freedom family so I am George CEO and founder of freedom little freedom today and you've been oh if you like this video click the like button down there and subscribe to our YouTube channel freedom central at youtube.com slash freedom we already have over 150 000 subscribers which is amazing see right there and I would love for you to be plus one I am George and you've been watching and we will grow together as a family because this is the freedom family you are part of it we are all part of it and we're all growing together so grow with us and partner with freedom that play now button right there on the video bar is all you need to click to get started
