YouTube Secrets: The Ultimate Guide to Growing Your Following and Making Money as a Video Influencer Paperback – August 16, 2018

If you're thinking of starting a YouTube channel or have already started but haven't seen the growth you were hoping for, "YouTube Secrets" by Benji Travis and Sean Cannell is a must-read. As two people who have conquered more than one niche on the platform with their channels BenjiManTV and Think Media, they share their wealth of knowledge in a well-structured and well-written book.What I appreciate most about this book is that it's accessible to everyone, especially those who can't afford online coaching. It's a comprehensive guide to success on YouTube, covering everything from content creation to audience engagement to monetization strategies.But what really sets "YouTube Secrets" apart is the authors' enthusiasm and dedication to helping others achieve their goals. They not only provide practical advice, but also inspire readers with their own success stories and their belief that anyone can succeed on YouTube with hard work and dedication.Overall, I highly recommend "YouTube Secrets" to anyone who wants to unlock the potential of this powerful social media platform and take their channel to the next level. It's a positive and empowering read that will leave you feeling motivated and inspired to start creating!

I started a YouTube channel_Travel Man Dan_ and I definitely recommend YouTube secrets to anyone who wants to start, build or even be informed about YouTube and its power. I am in my infancy but these tips helped me already start growing my audience!What I loved about the book was the way it described the basics of YouTube and how to grow your channel. Sean and Benji do a great way of explaining and teaching you ways of Youtube without leading you a bunch of lies. They are great at explaining the starting strategy with clear explanations and examples. A lot of my thoughts and questions were thoroughly explained and in a way that I could understand. They are informative and real with their audiences and explain what you need to do but don’t guarantee you and leave you with false hopes. Basically if you put in the work that they have done with the strategic way and done the research, you might be successful- the blueprint and secrets are great- well done thank you fellas!You should buy this book if you are interested in starting, improving or learning how to grow a YouTube channel. They are solid influences and provide people with the must learn secrets- I applaud these guys for their grit and confidence to continue to teach, or release secrets they have learned through years of hard work. But this book if you wanna get better at Youtube.

A very good guide for beginners, those who don’t use YouTube much but need to start a channel for supporting a current business or as another new venture. I’ve made many notes and a long to-do list. Not much technical stuff (such as how to analyse the data) but it’s great so the book didn’t bore with nitty details that a beginner can’t understand, but can always ask AI.

I've read 4 different Youtube algorithm/tips books, and started with this one. This book is a good option for learning core fundamentals about Youtube. It does not go into too much detail about a specific topic, but covers almost all general areas of how to be successful on modern Youtube.It's a bit outdated since it is from 2018. Mostly regarding some metadata changes and newer Youtube policies. But that's how things go when a book is published on a specific date.I wish it delved more into copyright and fair use (fairly large issue on Youtube atm), which is something covered much better in Youtube Channels for Dummies (2nd edition).The book is a short read, however if you are looking for something with advanced detail and contains newer Youtube information, I recommend "Crushing Youtube" or "Youtube Channels for Dummies" (2nd edition). Dummies has the most information and is an advanced version of Youtube Secrets imo. Crushing Youtube is in the middle, it offers great information as well but is a bit messy in the overall flow of the book.-If you want to take Youtube seriously, I'd recommend a combination of Youtube Channels for Dummies (2nd edition) and Crushing Youtube.-If you are taking a casual approach, Youtube Secrets will do just fine.-If you really wanna soak everything in about Youtube, these three books together will serve you greatly (I'd start with this one).Overall, this book is great on learning Youtube creation fundamentals and inspiration for your journey. Like others said, I think it would benefit more of those who are still starting out on Youtube, or are in the planning phase. I have not started my channel yet (been a Youtube lurker for 12+ years), but I did learn a lot of useful information for planning and starting out in general. 4.5/5

I like Sean's Youtube videos and I like the book. I was really hoping it was the latest edition that has been edited since writing his first one. Oh wells, still a good book.

Found this book very interesting and informative. It gives you a lot of insight about getting started on Youtube and growing your channel.

I wanted a technical and that make sense to me, honest review and wonderful insight even made me think that every stage has to be build, I skipped it the technical data and my channel got first 10.5K views, I’m still learning in the editing process but that takes time.Thank you guys for this awesome book
