Just get started with YouTube faceless channel not quite long, not an easy journey to be honest but mark my words, if I could see people getting it done, i will surely get there too🤟🥂♥️
my faceless youtube shorts channel was stuck at 30k views for 4 months
every short. like clockwork.
30k. 27k. 33k. 29k.
i was posting every day. different topics. different hooks.
nothing broke it.
then one night i sat down and figured out why shorts specifically puts channels in jail and it's completely different to long form
i fixed three things
the next short got 1.4 million views
i've never told anyone this. writing it all out in this thread 🧵👇🏼
i watched 200 faceless youtube videos this year trying to figure out why some blow up and some die at 80 views
the difference was never the niche
never the editing
never the thumbnail
it was always the script
and specifically whether the footage matched what the words were doing
let me show you exactly what i mean 🧵👇🏼
i probably shouldn’t be saying this publicly…
but i’m tired of seeing people struggle with AI videos
seedance 2.0 + claude + tiktok is literally broken
i’m talking hyper-realistic videos that make people stop scrolling and think:
“nah… this has to be a real person”
i spent weeks testing EVERYTHING
and finally locked in a system that:
- makes AI sound human (no robotic nonsense)
- adds natural body movement + micro expressions
- keeps videos consistent no matter how long they are
- cuts tool costs down like crazy
i wasn’t going to share this yet…
but f*ck it.
RT + reply “Ai UGC” and i’ll send the full step-by-step system
(if you’re serious, follow so i can dm you)
If I had to start YouTube Automation from 0 in 2026, I’d follow this EXACT checklist:
1. Go on YouTube (incognito).
If you skip this, you’re already lost.
2. Type random topics until you feel bored.
That boredom = saturated niche.
3. Find a small channel getting crazy views.
That’s your entry point.
4. If you can’t find 3 channels doing it…
leave. No demand.
5. Don’t create a logo. Don’t overthink the name.
Nobody cares yet.
6. Create the channel and disappear.
Watch videos, scroll, act human for a few days.
7. Go back to that viral video.
This is where you get paid.
8. Don’t copy it.
Rebuild it.
9. Take the transcript.
That’s your raw material.
10. Feed it to AI.
But tell it to sound better, faster, cleaner.
11. If the script feels boring…
your video is dead already.
12. Turn it into voice.
If it sounds fake, fix it.
13. Open your editor.
Your only job: remove every boring second.
14. Add captions.
Retention goes up instantly.
15. Add music low enough to feel, not hear.
16. Now pause.
Would YOU watch this?
17. If not, don’t post it.
18. Title = everything.
If it’s weak, views die.
19. Thumbnail = curiosity.
Not design.
20. Upload and move on.
Don’t babysit one video.
21. Do it again.
And again.
22. Your first 5–10 videos?
Probably useless.
23. Good. You’re learning faster than everyone else.
24. When one video moves…
study it like your life depends on it.
25. Then repeat it.
Same style. Same structure. Better execution.
26. That’s how channels blow up “overnight.”
27. Once money starts coming in…
buy your time back and scale.
Nobody fails because it’s hard.
They fail because they stop at step 12.
14 things you most do after uploading a YouTube Video to go Viral:

14.Reply to EVERY comment
Everyone is copying the same YouTube automation niches…
That’s why most channels die at 2k views.
If you want untapped niches, stop searching for “best niches”
and start doing this instead 🧵👇
STEP 1: Stop thinking in niches. Think in problems.
Big niches are saturated.
Problems are endless.
❌ Motivation
✅ Motivation for people starting life over at 30
✅ Motivation for night workers
✅ Motivation for people who feel left behind
The more specific the pain, the less competition.
STEP 2: Run the “bad video test.”
Search your idea on YouTube.
If you see:
• Low-quality thumbnails
• Weak editing
• Channels under 50k subs
• Videos doing 50k–500k views
That’s demand with weak supply = opportunity.
STEP 3: Steal from comments, not creators.
Creators copy creators.
Smart people copy audiences.
Read:
• YouTube comments
• Reddit threads
• Quora questions
Repeated questions = proven niche ideas.
STEP 4: Slice big niches into micro-stories.
Big niche: Finance
Bad angle: “How to save money”
Good angles:
• Money mistakes broke people repeat
• Financial decisions people regret
• Stories of people who lost everything
Stories beat advice.
STEP 5: Follow emotions, not trends.
Untapped niches live around:
• Fear
• Regret
• Curiosity
• Hope
That’s why faceless channels about
“moments before disaster” or
“decisions that ruined lives” always work.
STEP 6: Validate fast (don’t overthink).
Upload 3 videos:
• Same format
• Different hooks
• Same niche
If one pops, double down.
If none do, pivot.
Speed > perfection.
STEP 7: Stay safe (or get terminated).
Avoid:
• Reused scripts
• Low-effort AI narration
• Copyrighted clips with no transformation
Untapped doesn’t mean unsafe.
Examples of untapped automation niches:
• Life decisions people regret too late
• Psychology behind human behavior
• Stories people wish they could undo
• Moments before everything went wrong
Final rule:
If everyone is talking about it, it’s saturated.
If it feels oddly specific and uncomfortable…
You just found gold.

How to write a YouTube hook that stops scrolling:
• Start with a problem
• Hint at a payoff
• Remove context
• Create curiosity
• Speak to ONE person
If it sounds generic, it won’t work.
