How Often Should You Publish A Video

How Often Should You Publish A Video So, how often should you publish a video? I've often thought about this very question and today I decided to ask my Personal AI Assistant. Remember when reading the following post, the answer to the above question is in relation to my channel. Still, i figure it will suit a lot of folks out there. Your Publishing Frequency Analysis 📊 A Reflection of How Often Should You Publish A Video Created with Artistly Based on your channel data, you're already publishing daily (both shorts and longform), which is actually MORE than most successful channels in your niche. Here's the reality check you need: The Uncomfortable Truth About Your Current Strategy You've published 594 videos but have 1,290 subscribers, while channels like YeahMad achieved 2.3 million subscribers with only 166 videos. Your publishing frequency isn't the problem—it's what you're publishing. Your Recent Performance Trend: August 2025: 18,958 views (your peak) September 2025: 12,941 views (31% decline) October 2025: 8,474 views (55% decline from August) Despite daily uploads, your views are dropping dramatically. This tells us the algorithm isn't rewarding your content consistency because viewers aren't engaging enough. What Successful Dad Joke Channels Do Differently ChannelSubscribersTotal VideosStrategyYeahMad2.31M166Quality over quantityDad Jokes254K243Selective publishingDad Joke Central23.5K130Fewer, better videos My Recommendation: Shift Strategy, Not Just Frequency 🎯 Continue daily shorts (1-2 per day), BUT: Stop the longform grind - Your recent longform videos are getting 2-143 views. That's not worth your time. Focus on viral potential - Channels your size are getting 50K-700K views on single shorts by nailing: Hook in first 0.5 seconds Visual comedy (not just talking heads) Trending audio/formats Relatable scenarios Quality gate every video - Before publishing, ask: "Would I watch this twice?" If not, don't post it. Test and iterate - Your best short got 1,836 views. Study what made it work and replicate that formula. The Real Answer 💡How Often Should You Publish A Video Publish 1-2 shorts daily (not more), but make each one count. Your current daily cadence is fine—you just need better content that stops the scroll. One viral short will do more for your channel than 100 mediocre daily uploads. What I'm Going To Do Although vidIQ are recommending I concentrate on shorts I'm still going to do the longform ones because even though they do not get the views they do make more money. Other Topics To Keep You Entertained My Best YouTube Optimisation Strategy was also created by my vidIQ AI Assistant. Are you wondering about the importance of hashtags? This is the post for you. And finally, some of my YouTube Tips posts, that I’ve put together. Another post that may interest you is A/B Testing Thumbnails for Your Channel Exposed.

Who knows, I could be doing it all wrong 😑 and vidIQ had an answer for that as well. The following is everything I was supplied by my favourite Personal Assistant. I want this joke to be rewritten so that it's even funnier with great hooks, killer headings and a fantastic description. "A blonde lived with two blonde room mates. She bought a new car, and on the way home from the dealer got caught in a terrible hail storm. Her brand new car was dented all over. When she got home she called the service department to ask what she should do. The service chief, being a prankster, told her to wait till the car was cool and then blow hard on the tail pipe, which would pop out all the dents. A half-hour later her roomies saw her on her knees behind the car, blowing as hard as she could. They asked what the heck she was doing and she told them, adding in a perplexed tone “But it's not working”. “You dummy” one of her blonde roommates said. “You have to roll up the windows first!

A/B Testing Thumbnails for Your Channel Exposed

A/B Testing Thumbnails for Your Channel Exposed I've often wonder how important A/B testing Thumbnails for my channel was so I asked my personal assistant vidIQ that very question and that is how the post, A/B Testing Thumbnails for Your Channel Exposed, came to be. Remember, the answer you find below is related to my channel but even so, you may find some of it useful to you. Here's the Truth About A/B Testing Thumbnails for Your Channel 🎯 Short Answer: For your channel right now, A/B testing thumbnails probably isn't your highest-leverage move. Image created with ARTISTLY Here's why: Your Current Thumbnail Performance 📊 Looking at your recent longform videos, your thumbnails are already scoring exceptionally well: Scary Halloween Stories: The Haunted Car - Perfect 100/100 score The Halloween Poem That Scared The World - Stellar 95/100 score How I'm Using AI To Grow My Comedy Channel - Solid 84/100 score But here's the kicker: Despite these high-quality thumbnails, your longform videos are getting 5-36 views each, while your shorts (which can't use custom thumbnails) are pulling 1,000+ views. This tells us thumbnails aren't your bottleneck - it's likely your titles, topics, or distribution strategy that need attention first. When A/B Testing DOES Make Sense 💡 A/B testing thumbnails becomes valuable when: You have sufficient traffic (typically 1,000+ views in first 48 hours) to get statistically significant results Your thumbnails are already decent (70+ scores) but you want to optimize further You've maxed out other variables like titles, topics, and SEO You're testing specific hypotheses (e.g., "Does showing my face vs. text-only perform better?") What You Should Focus On Instead 🎬 Given your 1,292 subscribers and current performance: Double down on Shorts - They're clearly working for you (your top short has 67x more views than your top longform) Analyze your successful shorts to understand what topics resonate Test different video topics before testing thumbnail variations Improve your titles and hooks - These drive more initial clicks than minor thumbnail tweaks If You Still Want to Test Thumbnails... YouTube Studio offers built-in A/B testing for thumbnails. Test: Face vs. no face in your comedy content Text-heavy vs. minimal text Different color schemes (bright vs. muted) But only do this AFTER you've got consistent view counts above 500+ per video. What's your current strategy for choosing topics for your longform videos? Understanding this might reveal bigger opportunities than thumbnail testing! 🤔 I love how vidIQ always comes up with suggestions.
