Part 4/8:
Emergence Stage: This is when a niche starts gaining traction, signified by a few additional successful channels emerging. For opportunistic traders, this is the best time to jump in.
Growth Stage: During this phase, the niche captures mainstream attention. Creators must keep innovating to stay relevant; if not, they could get left behind.
Maturity Stage: View counts remain high but subscriber growth starts to plateau. Many channels appear successful on the surface, but saturation becomes a problem.
Decline Stage: Interest dwindles, with more creators flooding the niche, causing a drop in overall viewership.
For creators, understanding and recognizing these stages can lead to more strategic content decisions and ultimately, greater growth.
