Shorter Videos (More Often) or Longer Videos (Less Often)?

[TheVeganAtheist]

Just wanted to get everyone's opinion on what they would prefer (if they have a preference) and if there could be any negative impact with the following change.

As many of you know I have a few video series such as Stupid Meat Eater Comments, Stupid Christian Comments, etc, and until very recently ive been showcasing 5 comments in each video. With Stupid Christian Comments #12 I brought it down to 3 comments, but I am considering changing all series by doing 1 comment in each video, however having many more videos coming out much more often. I would be releasing at least 1 video a week (rather then the 2-4 week time frame now in place.

So, do you think 1 comment (probably a 5-7 minute video) much more often will be well received and help my channel grow? Any forseable negatives?
Let me know what you think.

Try it out. I would imagine it would help, but sometimes Youtube is hard to predict.

I think the 1 comment a week system should be more effective for the following reasons:
1) You will receive an increased ad revenue as you have more videos at.
2) Unfortunately, content creators who spend longer periods of time releasing (high quality) videos are not favored by YouTube's subscription system and often are left out of the My Subscriptions page unless the user is watching your videos every day.
3) If you release smaller packages of content more often, more criticisms can be made of your arguments and thus improve them at an increased rate

Usually I'm in for quality over quantity, but in this case I think a single comment is better when explained with a 5-minute long video. Plus, as Cirion stated, it would get you more revenue and will also help the channel feel more active and make providing criticism easier. Go for the more frequent but shorter videos if you ask me.

Thanks for all the feedback. I have already decided and implemented the 1 comment per video and its going well.
