Highly recommend howtoegghead.com - free resources on how to improve your screencast game :)

Interesting, I wish you success with your channel! I’ve also started my own over a week ago, but I’ve got only ~30 subscribers. Can you give me any feedback/advice?

Well... I got a good following on Twitter, and that helped me get the ball rolling.

But I’d say you should keep going!
