We debunk the myth that YouTube intentionally gatekeeps content and explore what true success means for different creators at various stages.

• YouTube has no business incentive to suppress creators' content after allowing free uploads
• Initial video performance followed by sudden drops is normal algorithm testing, not punishment
• Success metrics should be personalized to your specific channel goals beyond just views
• Small channels (under 1,000 subscribers) shouldn't obsess over analytics with limited sample sizes 
• Measuring improvements in creative skills is valuable progress for newer creators
• Comparing yourself to established creators often overlooks their years of behind-the-scenes work
• The unpredictable nature of YouTube is part of what makes it challenging and rewarding
• Building a supportive community of fellow creators provides relevant feedback for improvement
• Avoid tying your self-worth to video performance metrics you cannot directly control

If you're struggling with defining success for your channel, email us at theboostvidi@com or join our Discord community at vidiq.com/discord where you can connect with other creators on similar journeys.
