If you’re a small YouTuber with less than 1,000 subscribers trying to grow your channel in 2026, this video explains 6 things you should never do on YouTube if you want to avoid killing your growth before it even starts. I cover common mistakes new creators make, including assuming viewers watch for you instead of the value you provide, asking for subscribers too early in the video, worrying that your channel is too niche, publicly sharing your main YouTube account email, copying big creators instead of studying smaller channels, and expecting the YouTube algorithm to magically push your videos. You’ll also learn how the YouTube algorithm actually tests videos with small audiences first and why titles and thumbnails must promise clear viewer value. Whether you’re uploading YouTube Shorts or long-form videos, this guide will help you understand how to grow your channel the right way and avoid the mistakes that keep most small YouTubers stuck under 1,000 subscribers.
