Hello! I'm not into speed build videos, so I can't help you with that. Just wanted to stop by to tell you that there are many channels with far less subscribers (and probably views) than your channel. 400 is 4 times as many as I have. Among several machinima projects I make a series where each episode lasts 22 minutes, and I spend 4-5 weeks working nearly every single day on each episode. It's definitely not worth the 30 views each video gets, or the 3 new subscribers every month. So, I'm doing it because I enjoy making machinima so much.
Youtube has tons of channels, and to bring in viewers you would need to spend hours and hours watching and commenting other people's vids. I do that a little, but because my day has only 24 hrs, I must limit it to my niche, skipping speed builds and lets plays, even if I find many of them quite good. I wish I could watch one video every day, but I'm happy if I find time for 1 every week. Because making my own series is so time consuming.
Keep doing what you do, don't bother too much with views, subscribers or a future income from adds (in 10 years, yeah, might never happen). Your builds look great, and people downloading them should prove you're doing a great job n them. Maybe your videos could need some twist to stand out? I like seeing builds from a sim's view, maybe a machinima snippet for atmosphere?
Enjoy :)
@Simmerville Thanks for your reply, i have no idea what machinima is though even after googling it haha. I do already watch other peoples videos and comment on them, just by giving them compliments, dont wanna spam other peoples videos by saying "yo check out my channel" haha. I will definetely continue what im doing, its like a medicine for all my past problems haha, it is such a great way of staying away from negative thoughts. Feeling down? Just build in the sims and POOF, its gone haha. I cant help but focus on the subscribe number, i dont know why i do that.. Ill try not to pay attention to it. Thank you so much for commenting.
