Don't try to reinvent the wheel here. Instead, go with a proven concept - something that people are already making money from. Analyze the top creators in the niche and create improved versions of their videos.

Head over to YouTube, scroll around, and figure out what people are interested in. Look for topics with plenty of viral videos. You want to find niches that have 10+ videos with over 100,000 views. This is a good sign that a lot of people are interested in that topic.

Analyze the competitors - which channels are pushing views? A good sign of a viral niche is that small channels are getting a lot of views. This means that YouTube is pushing their videos to new people. If there are huge channels dominating the niche, it'll be really hard to compete.

There's also a new AI tool called NexLev that can automatically find new profitable niches for you. It has access to YouTube's data and can quickly identify channels that have been created recently and are getting a lot of views. Use the code "how to AI" to get a discount on NexLev.

The last thing to consider is whether it's even possible to make money in the niche. If there's no money in the niche, then there's no point in starting a channel. I learned this the hard way before starting my current channel.

The first step in setting up your faceless YouTube channel is to create a Gmail account. Once you have your account, head over to YouTube and create a channel.

When your channel is ready, you'll want to brand it in a unique way. Create a profile picture, banner, and description that align with your niche. If you're not design-savvy, you can hire someone on Fiverr to handle the branding for you.

Next, add some channel keywords. This helps YouTube understand your content and recommend it to the right audience. Use tools like VidIQ to find keywords with high search volume.

With the boring setup tasks out of the way, it's time to focus on the most important aspect - creating engaging content. Spend time researching topics that are performing well in your niche. Look for videos that have gained a lot of views recently compared to others.

Analyze the scripts of top-performing videos and take inspiration, but put your own spin on it. The script needs to be concise, genuine, and keep the viewer hooked from start to finish.

For the voiceover, use AI tools like 11 Labs to generate a realistic-sounding voice. Then, enhance the pacing in your video editing software to make it more engaging.

When it comes to editing, you'll want to keep the viewer's attention by incorporating animations, captions, music, and other visual elements throughout the video. If you don't have the time or skills for this, consider hiring a professional video editor.

Finally, create a thumbnail that stands out and piques the viewer's curiosity. Look at what's working for other successful channels in your niche and put your own spin on it.

Remember, consistency is key. Keep uploading videos regularly, even if the views are slow to pick up at first. With the right strategy and execution, your faceless YouTube channel can become highly profitable.

Don't mess this up, as this is by far the most important step. It's the difference between a video with a million views and a video with zero views. You could create a video with the greatest editing ever, but if it's a bad topic, it still won't get any views.

Instead of hiring a freelancer on Fiverr, who will likely just create it with ChatGPT, do it yourself. Spend some time researching what topics get views. Go to YouTube and search for your niche's primary keyword. Look for videos that have been created in the last few weeks and have gotten a lot of views compared to the rest of the content created during the same time.

When you have your topic, start analyzing the scripts. Can you find some common traits in videos that perform well? Take inspiration and try to add your own edge to it. Don't stress, you must have an engaging script. Take the script you're listening to now as an example - there's a reason why you're still watching, it's fire.

Make it sound genuine, like you're talking to a friend, but don't get it wrong. This is not a yapping session, you've got to be straight to the point. No fluff, people will see through that. It needs to be quick and engaging.

Look at Mr. Beast's videos - "8 Soldiers Shoot 10,000 Bullets at Your Lamborghini" - that's a perfect example of retention-based script writing. You're never getting bored because something is happening all the time.

On top of this, you need a strong and engaging hook that makes the viewer curious, something like "We are now stranded on this deserted island in the middle of the ocean, and we're going to be stranded here for the next 7 days, and that boat that just left was our only way out of here." This made the viewer curious about what's about to happen next, so they'll probably stay till the end, which is exactly the reaction you want.

Now you have the viewer hooked from the beginning, but you've got to make the video engaging all the way to the end by adding a storyline, something that will make the viewer want to know what happens next. Think of any Hollywood movie you watch - you watch the entire movie because you want to know what's about to happen next. Use the same formula when creating your scripts.

Don't try to do the voiceover yourself - you'll probably sound like a dork. Instead, create a voiceover with AI. I like to use 11 Labs, an AI voice generation tool. Simply pick a voice from their library, paste in your script, and generate the voiceover. This will give you a realistic-sounding voice.

However, the AI voiceover alone won't be enough. You need to enhance it further. Import the voice file into your editing software, such as Adobe After Effects or Premiere Pro (or even free tools like Capcut). Then, cut out all the pauses and slightly overlap the clips. This technique, called an "AJ cut", will make the pace much faster and more engaging.

Now, let's talk about the editing. If you have some editing experience, you could do this yourself. But it's very time-consuming. A video like the one you're watching right now takes about 2-3 weeks to edit. If you don't have the time or experience, hire a video editor. Don't use Fiverr, though - the quality is often lacking. Instead, go to Upwork and try to find a good editor there. It'll cost you, but if you want high-quality videos like mine, you need to be willing to invest.

The key to engaging editing is to ensure that something is happening at all times - characters, animations, captions, music, etc. This keeps the viewer's attention glued to the screen. If you'd like me to upload an in-depth tutorial on how I edit my videos, let me know by dropping a like and a comment.

When creating a thumbnail, you need to make it stand out from the crowd. Make it so appealing that the viewer can't help but click on it. Don't reinvent the wheel - look around on your homepage and find a proven concept used by other creators, and implement elements of the viral videos' thumbnails.

Channels like Mr. Beast like to shock the viewer with the thumbnail. Look at this one - "Why is that snake choking Mr. Beast? Mr. Beast is being choked by a snake? What the hell!" That's exactly the reaction we want. Just shock the viewer when they see your video on the homepage, and they'll click on it.

Another effective concept is using big revenue screenshots. If the viewer sees a large number, they'll want to know more about it. For example, "How to Make $133,000 with a TikTok Creativity Program."

Once you've found a thumbnail style you like, stick with it for a couple of videos to let people know that this is your style. But don't stick with the same thumbnail format for too long - you don't want to be repetitive.

When creating your YouTube videos, it's crucial to optimize them for search and discovery. This will help your content reach a wider audience and increase your chances of success.

Here are some key steps to optimize your video uploads:

1. Keyword Research: Use tools like VidIQ or TubeBuddy to research relevant keywords for your niche. Look for keywords with high search volume and low competition.

2. Descriptive Titles: Craft attention-grabbing titles that include your target keywords. Make sure the titles accurately reflect the content of your videos.

3. Detailed Descriptions: Write compelling video descriptions that include your keywords, links, and a call-to-action. Use the first few sentences to hook viewers.

4. Relevant Tags: Add relevant tags to your videos to help YouTube understand the content and suggest your videos to the right audience.

5. Engaging Thumbnails: Create custom thumbnails that are visually appealing and entice viewers to click on your videos. Use eye-catching images and text overlays.

6. Playlists and Annotations: Group related videos into playlists and use end screens and annotations to encourage viewers to watch more of your content.

7. Consistent Uploading: Maintain a consistent upload schedule to keep your audience engaged and signal to YouTube that your channel is active and valuable.

By following these optimization strategies, you can improve the visibility and discoverability of your YouTube videos, leading to more views, subscribers, and potential monetization opportunities.

Don't try to reinvent the wheel here. Instead, go with a proven concept - something that people are already making money from. Analyze the top creators in your niche and create improved versions of their videos.

Use tools like NexLev to automatically find new, profitable niches. This AI-powered tool can quickly identify channels that have been created recently and are getting a lot of views - a good sign of a viral niche.

When creating your videos, focus on having an engaging script and strong hook. Make the viewer curious and keep them interested throughout the entire video. Enhance the voiceover with editing techniques like A/J cuts to create a fast-paced, professional-sounding narration.

Invest in quality editing to make your videos stand out. Hire a skilled video editor if you don't have the time or experience to do it yourself. And create eye-catching thumbnails that will make viewers want to click on your video.

Monetize your channel through multiple streams, including ad revenue, product sales, and sponsorships. Be selective with sponsorships and only accept deals that align with your content and provide value to your audience.

Consistency and persistence are key. Keep posting new videos regularly, even if the views are slow to build in the beginning. With the right strategy and execution, you can turn your faceless YouTube channel into a highly profitable venture.

After starting this YouTube channel from zero subscribers and $34 in the bank, I've now grown it to over 90,000 subscribers and made over $100,000 - all without ever showing my face. In this video, I've shared the exact blueprint I used to create this successful channel.

The key steps are:

1. Find a Profitable Niche: Analyze trending topics and look for niches with plenty of viral videos and small channels getting a lot of views.

2. Create Engaging Content: Develop a strong hook and storyline to keep viewers engaged from start to finish. Use AI tools like Eleven Labs for high-quality voiceovers.

3. Optimize for Views: Invest in professional-level editing and eye-catching thumbnails to make your videos stand out.

4. Monetize Effectively: Leverage multiple income streams like ad revenue, product sales, and selective sponsorships to maximize your earnings.

The journey wasn't easy, but by consistently applying these strategies, I was able to turn my channel into one of the most profitable on YouTube relative to its subscriber count. If you're looking to replicate this success, keep pushing forward, even when the results aren't immediate. Consistency and discipline are key. Good luck!
