In 55 minutes, Arthur showed us how he got 1.1M YouTube views in 4 months with Claude Code Here's all you need to know, step by step: Arthur (@ZalidanTV) co-founded the Wizards and has been testing YouTube for 8 years His gaming channel was dead: almost no views, losing subscribers every month He relaunched it 4 months ago with AI processes Today it does 50,000+ views a day, and each video takes him 15 to 20 minutes of real work Here is the exact process 1/ Pick a niche that pays On an affiliate channel, the niche decides everything: a few cents on Amazon or $50+ per sale, for the same hours of work Start with the tools you use every day and love, then browse affiliate networks like Affilae Or ask Claude which niches historically pay the most: insurance, banking, finance, CBD, VPN A small slice of a huge cake beats a big slice of a tiny one 2/ Find the outliers, abroad Claude runs a deep research to find the videos that overperform on their own channel in your niche He scores each video against the videos around it, not against the subscriber count He only sources ideas internationally, never from the French market, so he never copies a French creator Those outliers become his editorial calendar 3/ Choose the topic yourself The AI brings the candidates, he always picks the subject by hand 4/ Research it 3 times, in parallel One deep research in Claude, one in Codex, one in Manus The three come back and cross-check each other, sensitive figures included Then his tool pulls the transcripts of the international videos that work on that topic 5/ One script skill per channel All that data goes into a script-writing skill rebuilt for each channel, so no two channels sound the same He records 5 to 10 videos a day on a teleprompter, 10 to 15 minutes each While he records one, another Claude session is already writing the next script 6/ Let the skill learn from you He drives the teleprompter with a Stream Deck and pauses it to improvise when a line feels wrong At editing, Claude compares the script with what he actually said When the same correction comes back 3 or 4 times, the skill updates itself 7/ Keep the edit simple, on purpose He sends the raw file to Claude, which cleans and edits it with that channel's skills WhisperX, a local model, transcribes every video and the whole edit is built on that transcript The affiliate call to action always lands in the first third of the video His rule: no flashy edit, because if everyone can make it, it is slop 8/ Thumbnails: 3 per video His tool has made 3 thumbnails per video automatically for two weeks now To start, give ChatGPT a photo of your face with the background removed, a thumbnail you like, the transcript and your tagline Ask for a professional 16:9 thumbnail that works on mobile and stops the scroll One tagline, and no text behind it 9/ Untick "notify subscribers" He unticks it on every upload, and the algorithm still understands the video Out of his 27,000 subscribers, maybe 5,000 or 6,000 care about WoW, so a notification would only annoy the rest What one gaming channel brings in: - $1,100+ a month from AdSense, after less than a month at this pace - $1,100 in affiliate commissions in one week, from an in-game add-on - $850 of sponsorship for 3 videos he was making anyway A video he posted at 9am had 35,000 views by noon the next day And when something pays, push it: one video every 3 days becomes one a day new mvp episode out now ˅
