Advice to grow on YouTube in 2021 from Ivan Kam. Ivan also discusses tech product trends and the daily grid of producing tech reviews. HINT: The #1 factor in long term YouTube growth is not chasing trends, catchy titles, or spammy thumbnails. Rather, it's about doing the HARD WORK each day to produce your videos on a regular, consistent basis. Focus on what YOU can control, e.g., how often you upload --- and by doing that, the views and subscribers will come.
Special thank you to Ivan Kam for appearing on today's Done Over Perfect podcast. Ivan's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbe49C-Jh6fyHLEDkUtuyow
