100Views Helped out by setting what seemed like a reasonable goal.

I have been intrigued by video production and how YouTube works for a very long time. My first YouTube video has a 2008 date on it! Somewhere in or around the year 2015 I noticed a very disapointing trend. My video quality was getting better little by little but my video views on YouTube kept going down. Not uncommon considering that more and more content creators are constantly starting up on YouTube and so there are fewer available viewers per creator over time. Not uncommon, but certainly disheartening. As 2018 rolled around I decided to just stop for a bit and seriously study how YouTube works and how to make more watchable YouTube videos. As the calendar struck January 2020 I decided to put my studying back into practice and set a modest goal of 100 views to strive for.

At that time --the beginning of 2020-- I had about 50 videos with 100 or more views after 10 years of trying. As of now I have 242 videos with 100 views or more. Including some with WAY more.

Here are the ten videos that have gotten closest to 100 views without getting all the way there. (Note: these view counts will NOT update in real time.)
