Is it too late to start a YouTube channel?
Many people ask this question before taking the plunge, and we understand why. YouTube is home to roughly 113 million channels, so there’s more competition than any new creator wants.
But guess what? You’re not competing with every YouTube channel. The good news is that most creators have a niche, like gardening or gaming or cross-country skiing. So if you’re talking about the latest beauty hacks, for example, a DIY channel isn’t going to steal your viewers. Your real competitors are in the beauty niche, and there aren’t 113 million of those!
But if you need more proof, check out these 12 successful YouTube channels. They popped up this year with no subscribers and popped out with thousands of loyal fans!
Also, every channel on this list is in the vidIQ community. So these are creators who use our growth tools, like the keyword research tool, AI title generator, and daily video ideas. Congratulations to all of you!
