Ummm... popular videos? Your most viewed video has 111 views.

To get subscribers just make new vids which are good on a regular basis

Yes, thats it really. You have to make quality, entertaining videos like once every week or something.

So, give me some ideas? A video I put on there today has 36 so that's quite good.

You need to find something which you're good at and that you can continue to make content on for a long time. Some people are good at humour, some teaching DIY. People doing tuts on how to do basic pc tasks do not usually do so well though.

Another way is to make videos which target a certain audience or community and make sure that the first videos are good enough that everyone will get their mates to watch it. Like this on a couple of my videos I got up to 2000 views in the first week which is not a lot but its still plenty.

Well people will subscribe if they like your videos, if you aren't getting subscribers then people don't like your videos.

Normally people with good quality videos; don't go around asking people what to do, it just comes to them. I'm sure your just doing it for YouTube 'fame' or something silly.

Tbh i'm gathering he's an 11yr old or younger kid who's using the internet for the very first time this year and is clueless. Evidence: "I post a lot in the online radios section" He has two posts there.

I guess that's true, maybe he should just delete all the crap youtube videos and start again? when he has an idea.

or even better make a new account, leave that one there and return to it in 5 years to see from 3rd person view what it actually looked like to others.

You have to be original and creative. That's all.

I never subscribe to videos, even if they are good.

I had an idea about putting some funny videos and then putting a scary pop up, do you think that'd work?

No that's a terrible idea. Be original, don't just rehash what already exists badly.

Omg I love your videos!

I love how you think tey are popular :P

You need to get thousands of views and subscribers to get the ad's and stuff

I have 8500 subscribers at the moment, it's just all because I am a total legend.

I'm pretty sure YouTube works best when you just happen to record something good, rather than sitting down and thinking of a good video to make which people will like. Most of the videos I've watched have been of spontaneous events anyway.

Isn't it just because you torrent games and put clips on YT before anyone else?

I'm pretty sure you only get 1 subscriber for every 500-1000 views I found in the past.

That's really good advice :S

The only possible advice is to make regular videos that are always interesting and humorous. I still think if you have to work so hard to just think of an idea, then it's not going to be a very good YouTube video.

I wouldn't ask for people to subscribe all the time, it annoys them and does the opposite of encouraging them to subscribe.

What's the fascination with people subscribing to your videos? :S

If you get loads of subscriptions etc, you can be invited to be part of the 'Youtube Partnership Program"

This means you can have advertisements put on your videos and a 'Subscribe' thing above your information etc. You can basically make money through have subscribers :P

"My favourite site.. habboxforum.com!"
"Sign up to.. habboxforum.com!"

Oh my God.

You do one thing.
Another person does another thing.
Another person does another thing.

That's variety on YT. You're never going to get subscribers that matter - the sooner you realise that, the better.

OK here is the definitive post in this thread:

Become a British equivilant of Remi Gaillard (http://www.youtube.com/user/nqtv). I watched virtually all of his videos (and he has loads) because they are the funniest videos on YouTube :P. He's French though, so you could be the British version (your videos will need to be as good or better than his though). Good luck :).

Make videos on how to pick chicks up, heaps of people would subscribe to that stuff

Cheers I'm sure I can make a video on that, :S
