Firstly let's say hi, I'm VerticoHD as you can see and I'm a youtuber and a member of a youtube group Known as the 5AClub.


My channel : VerticoHD 



Youtube is a mentally and physically demanding hobby or in some cases job, mentally it can sap you of all your motivation and damage your drive when you upload a video you see as a masterpiece and then come back to a measly few views.
This can lead you to ask the question we all ask on a regular basis "Can I do this? Can I maintain this hobby/job with the small payout it gives me both in terms of money and in terms of satisfaction?".


The answer is yes! The only thing stopping you from becoming big is wait for it.... you!
Youtube isn't exactly as simple as uploading a few videos then having a few thousand subscribers.. You have to work for it, tirelessly day after day but remember to enjoy yourself because the journey itself is what is supposed to be enjoyed not always the destination!



The journey itself could take years, some youtubers don't find their "niche" until late into their journey and as a result undergo a change which defines them.
Let's talk about the "niche" everyone (including you) has something that defines them and makes them unique and this "niche" can be seen by others as a good or bad thing and it's down to you to monopolise on this "niche" and utilise it.

Examples of youtubers "niche" 


Robbaz



What I believe Robbaz's "niche" to be is that he has a stoic demeanour and everything about him screams "manly" and "viking" and it's clear he made himself out to be this and has since monopolised on this and used it to his advantage!




Another pointer for anyone out ther under the weather or suffering viewer or subscriber woes, go to your favourite youtubers channel, click on videos/uploads and then click on where it says "newest to oldest" and then hover down to "oldest to newest" and look how far they have come.


They like you had an idea and dreamt of making it big and look at them now! It's possible, just make sure to upload on a regular basis, be yourself, play what you want to play and of course advertise :)


Anyway guys and girls best of luck
