I went VIRAL on Youtube One Year Ago & This Is What I Learned (The Truth about Going Viral)

Описание: On May 10, 2020, I released my video "I wore 18th-century clothes every day for 5 years and this is what I learned" only to wake up the next morning to the video and my channel blowing up. It's been a year since the video went viral, and I've learned a lot going through that experience. In honor of the one year anniversary, I wanted to sit down and share my story about what it was like to be a small channel going viral, to have my life turned upside down, and use that viral video as a jumping-off point to do youtube full time and gain 100,000 subscribers in less than a year.

It wasn't easy and it wasn't fun, but looking back I am so grateful for the experience.

If you are currently going viral on youtube, have recently gone viral, and are now trying to understand what's normal, or your channel has grown rapidly with thousands of subscribers and views in a short amount of time, this video is for you. I want you to know that the imposter syndrome is normal. The anxiety is normal. The excitement is normal. Your feelings are valid.

If you're just starting out on youtube and trying to learn more about doing youtube full time, or you're a consumer of youtube and want to know what it's like as a creator, this video is also for you. I go into all the analytics, SEO, and details on why I think my video went viral, what happens when a video goes viral, and what happens after the video calms down and how to use a viral video as a jumping-off point to successfully grow your youtube channel into a sustainable business.
