After getting 10 million views on my YouTube channel, here is what I would do differently in 2025!

Let’s get to it!

Reaching 10 million views on my YouTube channel has been a surreal experience. But let me take you back to where it all began. When I was in grad school, a single conversation changed my life forever. My friend Maureen visited me and casually suggested I start a YouTube channel. I laughed at the idea, thinking it was absurd. But Maureen wasn’t joking. Before leaving, she gave me an ultimatum: "Don’t call me again if you don’t start a YouTube channel."

Her words struck a chord. Guess what? I took the plunge and started my channel! That bold decision not only transformed my career but also shaped my life in unimaginable ways. Fast forward to today, with millions of views behind me, I’ve learned some powerful lessons. If I could go back, here’s what I’d do differently to grow faster, smarter, and with even more impact.

Hey there, future YouTube star! Taking that first step into the world of YouTube can be exhilarating and a bit overwhelming. Trust me, I understand the mix of excitement and uncertainty you're feeling right now. But don't worry—I've got your back! Here are some engaging content ideas to help you kickstart your channel and connect with your audience on a deeper level.

1. How-to Tutorials

People love learning new things! Whether it's cooking, DIY projects, tech tips, or makeup tutorials, how-to videos provide real value and establish you as an expert in your niche.

2. Day in the Life

Share a glimpse of your daily routine. People are naturally curious about how others spend their time, and these videos can create a personal connection with your viewers.

3. Product Reviews

If you've recently bought something interesting, share your honest opinion. Reviews help viewers make informed decisions and build trust in your recommendations.

Participate in popular challenges or trends. These videos are fun, engaging, and show that you're current and active in the community.

5. Behind the Scenes

Take your viewers behind the camera to show them the process of creating your content. Share the planning, the bloopers, and the reality of being a YouTuber—it makes your channel relatable and authentic.

6. Interviews and Collaborations

Team up with other creators or interesting personalities. Interviews can bring fresh perspectives and attract new audiences to your channel.

7. Storytime Videos

Share your personal experiences, funny stories, or life lessons. Storytime videos are a great way to build a loyal community and show your authentic self.
