Title of thread: your Help, honest thoughts, suggestions and/or advice Needed...
Self review: I'm NEW with YT and want to start the *right* way. I'm searching for the option for the Viewers to "watch more videos and was wondering if the end-card on Video #2 and Video #6 are the only option. Also, how can I make the end screens clickable? Please share with me your suggestions and/or advice. Thank you kindly.

My personal opinion. Start every of your video with a Hook. Basically, Hook is showing the end-result first, then showing the whole process of reaching that end result. Always ask your viewers to Subscribe you, but in the middle of the video and at the end of the video. Also, don't ask everyone to subscribe in first few minutes in your videos. Before ending the video, ask viewers to check out other videos, persuade them by saying "check these suggested videos because these are the videos you had always been searching for".
As for end credits, i think the template is nice. But, you should use END SCREENS from your YouTube studio editor.
Just like the following:

I add related videos on left side box and recent videos on right side box. And subscribe circle on the middle. Do this for all your videos. Also, you need to get more creative with your thumbnails. Canva is free and best choice for YouTube thumbnail design.

My personal opinion. Start every of your video with a Hook. Basically, Hook is showing the end-result first, then showing the whole process of reaching that end result.

Tread carefully because if the thumbnail and first few seconds of the video (the hook) are basically the same then the viewer already on a subliminal level has a sense of fulfillment and may exit the video much sooner, if not immediately after viewing the hook. My advice would be don't show the end result first, show a small portion of the end result first.
