The Power of a Great YouTube Channel Name

Posted on by

Make of this what you will:

While watching a John Oliver “Last Week Tonight” video, I noticed a comment from a user named, “1,000,000 subscribers without any videos challenge.”

Intrigued, I clicked on the name and found an empty channel without a single video. But they do have 3.9K subscribers as of this writing.

Here’s his progress thus far:

50 – 9/5/2019

100 – 9/8/2019

150 – 9/12/2019

250 – 9/18/2019

500 – 10/19/2019

750 – 10/21/2019

1,000 – 10/29/2019

2,500 – 12/06/2019

5,000 –

Two things to note about this achievement:

1: I’m guessing he’s gotten nearly all of his subscribers from comments he’s left on other people’s videos

2: The reason he’s gotten those subscribers is 100% because of his name.

How can you use this information to increase your YouTube subscriber base?
