Why don't we just share the hill?

Hey Flood, so I'm going to create a YouTube channel mainly for gaming (Reviews, Top 10's ect.) and other stuff. Any advice on what to do and what not to do? Should I try advertising it on Twitter and various other websites or just upload videos and see how many views they get?

I obviously already know to expect low numbers of views when I'm stating off. Any other suggestions?

Don't put stupid and/or crappy videos on your channel. That's my advice. =)

Don't advertise until you have posted videos.

Get in contact with popular you-tubers to promote your channel, without sounding like a complete -blam!- about it preferably.

OMG

Stosh <3's me vicariously... at least someone does...

Remember that there are million other people already doing what you've just described.

No one's going to watch you just for being as good as them, so find something unique. Maybe that talking parrot idea someone mentioned...

Actually, I was thinking of doing some reviews on anime and manga. Is it ok to upload them to YouTube or will they get removed if you show footage from anime?

Just make sure you give credit to those that made the anime.
