    Hey guys its DrabVids and Im just posting a channel review thread with a link to my channel if any of you want to check it out and maybe review it. I cannot afford any equipment like a good microphone, so I have to use my webcam's mic but people have told me its very good.
    So here's a link to my channel if anyone wants to check it out. Thanks!

    Hey there DrabVids! Great avatar and banner, simple but gets the job done.

    Now in terms of feedback, the first and biggest bit of feedback I can give is be more consistent, a lot more consistent! You upload way too little for anyone to want to follow your channel. Upload more and you will see some progress. Your microphone isn't too bad, clear enough to hear you and wth a bit of editing in software like audacity it would be fine.

    Content feels very all over the place I don't know what to expect if I sub to you. People generally subscribe for a specific type of content because that way they aren't annoyed by random uploads of games they don't like or don't care for! So aim to have a main game as our content focus, now that isn't saying you can't upload other games but I wouldn't do it very often, have one game as the majority of your content or one theme of content (Indie game reviews as an example, people would sub not for the game but for the style of content).

    Thumbnails are great, really like the style you have for them, simple, clean and still provide enough info for me to have an idea of what the video will be about. Just try to get them on all of your videos, helps a lot with branding.

    Title/tags/description - Your titles aren't too bad, the Drab plays feels a little pointless, you could use that space for the quirky video catch phrase to draw people in but overall you get a good amount of info in the titles at least. Tags on the other hands you need to put more effort in, think of key words that are related to the game, game version, boss killed, level, zone, what rare items you found etc try to think of things that people would be searching for, generally people want information so keep that in mind. Description is "ok", I would get a link to a playlist for that video series in your description, helps gets you a few more views, also provide a bit more info on the game you are playing or what you have achieved last eps/what you are about to achieve. For example you found a hidden sword in this episode, put the name of the sword and the area/level you found it in the description or tags. Then when people try to find how to get it your video will be in that list!

    Your channel layout is good enough and the vids themselves are bad, so if you take things a bit more seriously production wise I could easily see you growing your channel.

    Good luck!

    I'm sorry to say but you should have read my introduction first. I explained how I cannot afford better equipment and as a student I can't upload all the time/frequently. I upload when I can as I live with other people and its hard to manage that with youtube. Really should have read it my friend. I appreciate the attempt to help my channel but you should have read my introduction to know what happens in my life so that you know why I cannot upload and such. nonetheless thank you.

    I did read it , that's why I commented your microphone isn't too bad and could be improved with software like audacity (Free software). So you don't need to worry about purchasing a new one and on your post here you don't mention about not having much time to create content and it is one of the best ways to grow regardless of schedule! Don't worry I did read your post and gave you a quick look over on your channel ;)
