Incorporating Other Games in Same Genre While Maintaining/Building Audience
Hello all,
I started a channel focusing Battlefield 6 analytical content and gameplay. So far, growth has FAR exceeded my expectations and has motivated me to consider a long horizon for my future content. For reference, in a few weeks I have garnered 120k views and 14k watch hours.
BF6 is popular and seems to have legs to keep being popular for a while, but I've been around the block- I know games come and go, and EA has shit the bed time and again. I need to consider ways to diversify my content across other FPS games early in order to "future proof" myself. There is a graveyard of Battlefield channels that never evolved and got left in the dust, while some creators (Jack Frags, Levelcap, Matimio), have thrived.
I have already taken steps to be personality-forward by incorporating live commentaries. At this stage, they are my most viewed videos. I want to also maintain my analytical content, such as my in depth weapon reviews and some map and class guides. Most of my subscribers are subscribed due to my skill and ability to explain what I'm doing live, but there has been a great deal of cross polination to my weapon guides.
What strategies have you guys successfully employed to incorporate other games into your channels, and how have they panned out?
