Video Upload Frequency

YouTube needs a consistent creator. Uploading videos regularly on YouTube helps to get better traffic on the channel.

But the question is, how many videos can you upload per week?

At least one video per week is good. But when you commit to uploading 2 or 3 videos per week, it’s better; however, remember that you have to follow that cycle every week.

Content and Consistency are kings in this digital world!
