Fun facts about YouTube play buttons:
Before silver play buttons, 100K subscribers got you a $500 gift card and a camera case
The crystal in the red diamond award is made by Baccarat in France
Their maker, Society Awards, also makes trophies for the Golden Globes and Emmys

My theory is that YouTube never expected anyone to pass 100M subscribers, so when MrBeast hit 200M, they just made him a custom award
Then they realized other creators were actually going to hit these milestones too and figured they should probably go back to a consistent design lol

For everyone asking how the @Sidemen did it in just 1 video…
All 7 members already had massive audiences on their own channels. When they launched the main Sidemen account in 2016, they each sent their fans over and hit 1M subscribers in just 3 days.
One of the greatest examples of audience building on YouTube.

YouTubers are building empires.
Some employ hundreds of people. Others reach tens of millions of subscribers with teams of a few dozen.
Same platform. Very different businesses.

Social media views in perspective:
100 = A room full of people
500 = A packed auditorium
1,000 = A sold-out concert venue
10,000 = An entire small town
100,000 = A full NFL stadium (and then some)
Your audience is probably a lot bigger than you think. Keep creating.

Everyone overcomplicates YouTube:
1 - Get really good at making one type of video
2 - Master your titles and thumbnails
3 - Once you’ve figured out what works, start experimenting with other formats
The biggest mistake creators make is trying to do too much at once
