Dominate YouTube Over 40: The No Niche Approach

What an eye opener ... need to RE-ALIGN & RE-THINK my audience I need to serve - Thanku much much 💙🙏

Just started my channel all over from scratch last week. 17 subscribers. Gonna keep posting.

I have been making videos for awhile

This editing is really good. Do you do this yourself?

How do you talk to the camera so well?

Whoa whoa, whoa, mid lifer, I'm not. I'm a quarter through, thank you.

Editing isn't that hard? LOL, speak for yourself! That was actually the hardest part for me.

FYI, I have been giving myself small challenges to push myself. Like, next video, I will use a sound effect. Last video, I used voiceover for the first time.

Amazing beard sir. Great video as well.

I set my channel up this week and have about 14 videos. Right now just trying to see how it goes.

Beautifully said. As I started drafting content I realized I just have to talk about my life. There’s a lot there. 💖✨🙏

Yes create for humans!! Not algorithms!! Amen 🙏🏼

Thanks for the encouragement Steven. I'm 73 and starting my first YT Channel. What Video Editing program do you recommend? I need something simple :-)

I'm 48, and started last year.

I had to start from scratch. No experience with anything so my last year was learning tech and the process.

This year, ill be concentrating on content.

I'm having trouble finding my editing style so I just said F it, ill just film what seems fun.

Problem is, I love all the production stuff, I feel like I was born to be Behind tbe Scenes, than in front of camera

But I'm trying! I appreciate your work, I'll be binging it this week.

Is it important to post on a schedule?

Just starting my channel today, there will be no niche.

It seems like getting us over 40s to make channels is trending

Why do You not need other social media?

What mic do you use?

A lot of these comments remind me of “paid for” Amazon reviews 😫

Great Approach to Video in general. The story you tell is more important than the packaging and has always been.

like your video like your info

This is extraordinarily helpful - blessed 🥹 to have found you 🙏

48 here, been doing this for about 17 years now! Feels like I never stop learning stuff, especially in the last few months, and I got no complaints. Not most days anyway!

A little tardy to the party but great advice, I will be applying it when creating my videos.

you are hot, and I can say that as I am 63 and left that game a while ago 😀 Nice speech, subbed

I AM Unique! I just started my own channel this past week to share my poetry and art ❤

Already started this process as a 35yo. Well done sir!

Thanks for sharing your journey Stephen and all the best for the year ahead! (You have been one of the inspirations for starting a new chapter of my life in my 60th year)

Nicely done!

am enjoying your content so far (6 min into it) but wondered two things initially (which nearly had me departing, except you're so affable) -- first, why, while talking about avoiding flashy edits, you are using flashy edits with whoosh SFX? and second, why your camera is on auto-focus: When your hands are in view and therefore closer to the lens than your face, your features blur.

Great video

I'm 45...I make movie scene reinactments..trainspotting. snatch to name but a few...Good luck and God bless to everyone content creator out there 😊

Really glad your channel was recomended. This is the first video I have seen that says about not niching down. I kept thinking that is that why my channel has only been growing super slowly over these years. Im going to use the tips you have stated about the thumbnails and titles and your other tips. I will be subscribing!

NOICE

That was the best video on this topic EVER! Practical, succinct, relevant…. Great! Well done x
