One of the more methodical approaches to channel growth is demonstrated by Chad Bartler, an experienced affiliate marketer. When he created a new trading channel called Chad Trade, he relied on a search-based strategy that involved thorough keyword research using tools like VidIQ.

Chad focused on keywords with high search volume and low competition, targeting topics like “day trading for beginners.” His initial videos received modest views, but his third and fourth videos accumulated over 50,000 views combined. He leveraged personal stories and relatable experiences to maintain viewer engagement, ultimately reaching over 40,000 subscribers within a year.
