What happens when you go down the Youtube video rabbit hole

Yesterday, I decided to seriously explore reviving my old YouTube channel.
I ended up watching numerous content creators discussing how to monetize your channel quickly. Since the start of my old channel, I’ve wanted to join the YouTube Creators Program. It would be a great side hustle, and I could definitely use the extra revenue stream.

After watching many videos from small channels and their monetization attempts, I’ve decided to dedicate August to this goal. I’m giving VidIQ’s Boost Plan a 7-day trial to see what it can do for me. So far, I’ve worked on renaming old videos, adding better tags, and rewriting some descriptions. I haven’t seen any major improvements yet, but it’s only been one day.

What I like most about VidIQ is that it gives you content ideas based on your channel, its description, and your target audience. I’ve already come up with several ideas, and this has helped me fine-tune them. I’m excited to try some of their recommendations for future videos.

Keep it Simple Stupid: The YouTube Reboot

In a recent turn of events, I’ve made the decision to breathe new life into my old YouTube channel. Initially created to document my weight loss journey, this channel is now evolving into something fresh and exciting. Let me share the reasons behind this choice:

  1. Existing Followers: While my follower count may be modest (just 19 strong), I’m not starting from scratch. These loyal viewers have been with me, and I appreciate their support. By keeping the channel, I can continue engaging with this small but dedicated community.
  2. Preserving Effort: Let’s face it—I’ve invested time and effort into creating those videos. Rather than scrapping everything, I see an opportunity to build upon that foundation. The existing content can still serve a purpose and contribute to the channel’s growth.
  3. The Ironton Wizardfest Video: Ah, the magical memories from my visit to the Ironton Wizardfest in Ohio! I want to keep that video alive. By retooling the old channel, I ensure that this cherished piece of content finds its place in the new direction I’m taking.

So, here’s to embracing change, repurposing, and creating something even better. Stay tuned for exciting updates on my revamped YouTube journey!
