4 reasons not to do Sub for Sub:
1. Sub4Sub goes against YouTube’s community guidelines and can even get your channel terminated. You Can read more about the policy here: https://support.google.com/youtube/an...

2. Sub 4 sub subscribers are not the subscribers you want subscribed to your channel. These subscribers are not going to interact with your future content. If you’re subscribers do not even want to watch or interact with your videos, YouTube thinks that no one will want to watch your content so they won’t promote your video to new potential viewers.

3. There are better uses of your time. Create great content that people are searching for. One of our first videos now has over 300,000 views and helped us gain over 3,000 subscribers. Focus on creating great content and you’ll get views and subscribers.

4. You don’t need subscribers to get views. On this channel less than 2% of the watch time comes from our subscribers. On our other channel, TheFigCo en Español, we have over 170,000 subscribers and less than 12% of the watch time came from our subscribers.

4 tips to help you get more subscribersÑ
1. Create videos for YouTube search, follow YouTube SEO best practices so your videos show up in search results in both YouTube and Google search results.
2. Create bingeable content in a narrow niche. If you create lots of videos within a narrow niche, people will watch multiple videos on your channel. In most cases, viewers will want to watch several videos before subscribing to your channel.
3. Use YouTube cards and end screens to recommend other content to your viewers
4. Respond to all comments on your videos. Start a conversation with people who leave comments on your videos by responding to everyone who leaves a comment on one of your videos.
