Video Blogger

Hello everyone in our big WORLD. In our time of nanotechnology, there are more and more people who want to earn money or have passive income, so to speak, "to keep their pants up" or earn extra money for retirement.

Many, having started such actions, quickly "break down" and stop the idea of ​​earning money on the Internet.

Everything is real (as a blogger and webmaster, I assure you) if you try and delve into it, then the monetary reward will become not only to keep your pants up - but also as the main type of income, it all depends on desire and understanding.

There are many different types of earnings on the Internet, so to speak, at home with part-time or time-based employment. In this article, we will consider such an option as - VIDEO BLOGGER, in fact, this is a blogger only with a camera.

Blogging is gaining crazy momentum, since working with a camera is easier and more profitable than chasing clean, original content.

In the role of a platform or our conversation with you, YouTube will be the basis as the main, free resource on the Internet.

There are a lot of resources or platforms for video bloggers on the Internet, which Internet resource to choose is up to you, and we will talk about YouTube as a reliable resource where you can really make money.

In essence, YouTube is a cloud for free storage of video files, even if you are not a blogger - you can use YouTube to store personal or home videos (weddings, birthdays, parties, etc.) keep them locked (closed access) or via a link (access via link) and no one will see them except you or those to whom you sent the link.

But it is better to use Internet resources for their intended purpose while it is possible, but I think the turnover will only increase.

It is almost impossible to cover the whole essence in one topic, YouTube, Google and other helping bases are constantly changing the rules and behavior, adding or changing something - so it turns out that you will constantly have to edit to be in trend.

But I can say that everything is moving forward and increasing - that is, it is improving, something new is constantly being added, not everything and not always relevant, but what will improve and bring more profit from YouTube, I will try to present in the correct and proven order.

YouTuber's Beginner's Course

This article will be enough for a young blogger to start and not only, to understand the principle of work on YouTube or the basis of earnings of a video blogger.

There will also be auxiliary articles on individual branches without which earnings on YouTube are impossible.

For the first 3-6 months of the channel launch - this material will be quite enough.

Instruction

Don't try to clutter the channel with different topics from the start, think about what topic is most relevant for you and start with it.

In the future (if you have enough strength and patience) there is an opportunity to create additional channels on the same account, in which you will post content of other topics - for example, you can create a family channel (in open or closed access, or by link) and also monetize it and link all the other bells and whistles.

Channels that are in one account are easier to control (you will not need to change the password and login), and it will be easier to monetize, link to Adsense - which in due time removes unnecessary problems in Adsense with access rights, since one account means one owner.

Important: in Adsense you can register (last name and all details) only one account!!! In case of losing the account, you will have to change your last name.

General characteristics

YouTube is very easy to use, it is also considered a social network - which means that communication will be in the first place.

The technical department of the corporation constantly makes upgrades - sometimes adding new features, sometimes removing them forever, the trend of the rules is unpredictable.

The user protection system is constantly updated - so far no channel hacks have been detected. The channel's life is unlimited even if the owner is lost - but the channel is considered alive when there is account movement, that is, a behavioral factor.

The YouTube channel will gradually give new bloggers new opportunities, based on the number of views and the behavior of viewers.

So in order for the channel to live and develop, it is necessary to rank the YouTube content more often.

Channel Monetization

I think monetization is the most sensitive and exciting issue for a novice blogger - you can say so not to bother about it at first, since the first half of the year will be spent on starting the channel.

Google is constantly changing the rules as an improvement of service, at the moment the following criteria are needed for monetization - the channel must comply with the rules of the community, there should be no violations of the community, at least 100 subscribers, at least 10,000 total views, if you compare 10 years ago - then without any subscribers in the first days it was possible to monetize the content.

Pricing policy for advertising in different countries is different, expensive advertising in countries that are among the top ten developing countries - such as America, England, Japan, Australia, Israel, etc. advertising in these countries will be an order of magnitude higher.

Channel Analytics

Channel analytics is needed primarily for channel monetization and connection to Adsense to process user or viewer behavior requests. You can also conduct analytics by tracking traffic, so to speak, monitoring views - from which countries, at what time, on which devices, etc.

Video content as the basis

The main tool in YouTube is - video content, video reviews are the main task in building earnings on YouTube.

To start the channel, you can use portable equipment such as a smartphone and its camera, but to improve or promote the channel, you will have to spend money and buy a camera with more capabilities.

The quality of the shooting directly depends on the success of the channel, even if the content is not very interesting - then the quality will cover the time spent by viewers, which leads to a behavioral factor - likes, dislikes and comments.

Sometimes the content is interesting and the shooting is lousy - this is a loss of users, which leads to a decrease in the rating.

This means quality + interesting content - 100% raises the rating of your channel, video reviews should unobtrusively entice users, that is, to subscribe to the channel.

The purity of the content matters - your own video will bring much more pluses to your channel than someone else's copied and processed video.

Video Content Processing

Of course, it is better to process video content on video converters (free or online ones are suitable for starters), so to speak, to give reviews a cinematic character.

A video blogger is first and foremost a director, you can present unimportant content in such a way of processing - that Hollywood can rest.

So you will have to not only shoot well - but also learn how to convert ordinary video into a cinematic masterpiece.

Context in Content

This means the general nature of the channel and video, let's say the channel is about medicine, which means the main nature of the context in the channel content is medicine and everything related to it, if the review is about osteochondrosis, which means the context in the content should be with the nature of the spine.

Also, the title, splash screen and description (context) must match the general nature of the video review (content). In general, in the video context it is not allowed to have "the title is ROAD, the description is SEA, the splash screen is BEE and the review is about TREE" + the tag content must match the topic of the content for video ranking.

There is also the possibility of additional YouTube channels in the main account, in order to divide the content according to the demand or topic of users.

Working with Meta Tags

Quality work of meta tags, although not big, gives an increase in the ranking of content in YouTube and search engines.

There are no big opportunities in YouTube for tags - tags for the channel description and video description, the quality of the tag will affect a small percentage of the channel growth.

Channel Promotion

So there are several options for channel promotion, the first most relevant is to raise it through quality content, not a very fast method but the most reliable.

The second method of promotion is for money (but you can also run into scammers - who will link you to "dead" subscribers (viewers who have not used their account for a long time due to losing their password, etc.) you need really "live" subscribers to promote the channel) for a certain amount you can get the desired number of subscribers and views, the method is fast but not cheap.

The third method is free or mutual promotion of views and subscribers on monitoring platforms, and for beginners, the initial course is suitable - ask relatives, acquaintances and friends to rate your channel with likes and comments.

Finally, a little advice - when promoting a channel for money or on free resources, take these actions into account before connecting to Adsense, Adsense is very sensitive to the indicators of cheating and you can lose monetization forever.

The main argument is subscribers - from which your channel rises in the rating, more subscribers (live) - means more views of a new video, which leads to the rise of uploaded content.

Spectator Behavior

Likes and dislikes are a behavioral factor of viewers, comments to the video can be disabled if you do not want criticism.

This means that the user, having viewed the content, must leave a trace in the form of a like or dislike, if there are initial views but no viewer behavior - such a video will not be ranked on YouTube, in simple words, it will not be in the list of content offered to viewers.

This means that something needs to be changed in the strategy (in the future, do not make mistakes when filming), try to change the title, description and screensaver, ask friends to comment on the video so that a conversation can start.

Sometimes a review sits, as they say, in a "hole" and "shoots" a year after publication - if there are no views right away and there is no viewer behavior, such content can sit forever in the "hole" so we work on content so that viewer behavior really influences the promotion of your channel - these are subscriptions, comments and likes.

Content Behavior

This is work with uploaded videos, the content is directly related to the behavior of viewers and the growth of the channel, a video that has gained more than 300 views in the first day does not require much attention and improvements.

Here the matter will go purely for the content itself, YouTube ranking can be by name and by upload time - that is, in the name, let's say, there is a root "WINTER", which means that YouTube will mainly offer viewers in winter, or in August the content was uploaded, YouTube will offer viewers every August, etc.

But if the content is not popular in the first day, you need to take action. The main indicators are the splash screen, description and title of the content, we change these three points until there is no sense, at least once a week.

For example, the title was "A big-eared rabbit runs on the ground" change it so that it would interest the viewer, at least like this "You have never seen such a big-eared rabbit running on the ground" we also work with the description and the intro to the video (the intro is a photo on the video for searching). In general, we work with the content and the behavior of viewers will change even with old videos.

Blogger Behavior

A blogger shouldn't sit back and wait for the weather to change, roll up your sleeves and start scanning YouTube in search of the right solution.

So you constantly need to focus on already advanced or trending channels in your direction, since viewers like their channels and the channel is showing high behavior, it means the content completely satisfies a particular contingent of viewers.

We watch and analyze how the content is filmed, how it is processed, the direction of the conversation (correct or understandable for viewers), at what time it is published (has profitability in the time zone, for example 6.00 A person is already free from everything and is ready to watch) since the first hours of viewing give a huge plus, the manner of filming, the title of the video, description, etc.

In general, we analyze down to the smallest details, draw conclusions, so to speak, correct and not make mistakes in the future - even the smallest detail can lead to an increase or decrease in the productivity of this project.

Working with Comments

This is directly related to the behavior of the blogger, which in turn increases the behavior of users. So the better the question or answer, the more seriously your channel will be treated.

You need to be able to start a conversation, so to speak, casually (even if you know the answer) answer so that it turns into a question or ask a question with an answer - to confuse and interest users, the more interesting and unclear the answer or question is - the more commentators will be drawn to the main comment, a simple conversation will start.

Ranking channels with similar topics will only be a plus for your channel, in other people's reviews leave clear, sensible comments or questions, unobtrusively or indirectly point to your content.

In no case like this "Please go, watch and like" and then a link to the content" the best option would be something like this "Hi, I have almost the same situation, only there is a little bit of confusion for me, if anyone is interested and knows the approximate answer, tell me "is it possible without or with a link to the content"". So we wander through the vastness of YouTube (on the topic of your channel) and unobtrusively invite you to visit your channel or give an answer to the video.

Working with Titles

Not a bad tool for attracting more users.

So how does it or what does it work for, the first adds viewers with poor hearing, and the second, the subtitles can be like a translator - if the video is in Russian, then you can add foreign subtitles in parallel with Russian subtitles, having previously selected the language for the content (that is, for which countries this or that topic is suitable).

This is, of course, very difficult and labor-intensive work, especially with long videos - ideally, a person with an understanding of the selected language would translate, but for starters, an online translator will do, by running the text back and forth, you can achieve almost the desired result, that is, an understandable translation for the user.

Google Content Guidelines

So, like all large and famous companies, Google also has its own rules, especially under American laws on the uniqueness of content - where even a phrase can be patented.

The rules of Google, YouTube and Adsense on the Internet are in the public domain - we study the privacy policy, rules and agreements, since they can directly affect your channel up to deletion from the Internet, and then all your work will be in vain.

There are rules that you can't change - and there are those that can be circumvented with minor losses, but all this is at your own peril and risk.

Active Income with Adsense

The most relevant and reliable is a partnership with Adsense, since YouTube is a subsidiary or contextual platform of Adsense, which means these services have one director, which subsequently does not pose any threats to earnings.

Adsense is the "golden" mean between the advertiser and the blogger, Adsense accepts applications for advertising and your content as a platform for displays, and your viewers are traffic - that is, a potential buyer.

The reward for displaying ads and going to the advertiser's site is divided in half 50/50 between Adsense and the blogger. A convenient system for withdrawing money almost anywhere in the world by SWIFT payments - an electronic check in the popular language.

Active Income from Partners

There are also subsidiary partners who enter into an agreement or contract with the management of YouTube or Adsense (it doesn't matter in principle) to display advertising on the YouTube platform at the expense of bloggers who in turn agreed (in writing or electronically) or, more precisely, registered their channel on the resources of subsidiaries.

It's complicated and confusing, but by and large there is no point in understanding or implementing it - since Adsense or subsidiaries have their own small, I would even say in small print, "tricks" in other words, for failure to comply with the rules or multiple violations - your channel can be blocked, without appeal and without payment of monetary compensation, simply all the work goes down the drain.

To avoid being blocked, read the rules and privacy policy well, but these blockings from partners do not block the YouTube channel, YouTube has its own rules - however, they are directly related to Adsense, which means that if the YouTube rules are violated, Adsense has the right to disable monetization, thus terminating the contract (without epilation) and not pay monetary compensation for showing ads.

Subsidiary partners take 25% of the profit from advertising, and the blogger gets the remaining 75%, many large channels have switched from Adsense to subsidiaries, since the earnings are higher there, but as they say - better little but stable, the choice is always yours.

Passive Income from Affiliate Program

This is a verbal or written agreement (can be notarized) with small companies, stores, brands, etc. to display a link with a description in the top videos on the channel.

You can link a video appeal to a product or store at the beginning of the video - but when terminating the contract, the video will have to be deleted, since it no longer brings you profit.

A link with a description can be inserted into the video description, make a comment with the top link, etc.

When one of the videos goes to the top (maybe several), then the advertisers themselves find contact with you - if your topic coincides with their products. So to speak, the advertiser and the blogger tete-a-tete without intermediaries.

Cryptocurrency on YouTube

In the summer of 2018, the Likecoin blockchain was launched, Likecoin gave YouTube bloggers another opportunity to earn money on LIKES, each like generates LKE cryptocurrency (not to be confused with LTE).

This opportunity to earn money is suitable for all types of channels, whether you are a great or a beginner blogger, it is even suitable for blocked Adsense channels (in cases where the channel is alive and you cannot connect advertising), and especially for children's channels of shooters, minecraft, etc., where the main contingent is children, on such channels, generation due to likes will go at a frantic pace.

The difference between BTE (bitcoin) and LKE is that bitcoin is generated by mining (calculating the algorithm) with limited resources - that means there is a limit, and likecoin is generated by likes on the LKE service, they just pay for likes on your channel, that means they invested money in this electronic currency (that is, they bought a patent), that's why likecoin is not expensive yet, the more money they pour into it and the greater the demand - the higher the price.

Unlike purchased electronic currencies, likecoin has its own advantages over others - it is a registered cryptocurrency (meaning it will live as long as there is Internet), it can be bought, sold, invested in and, most importantly, converted into the currency of your country.

So the more likes - the more LKE you have in your account, and cryptocurrency has only been growing in price in recent years, and no one is sure how likecoin will behave - but the fact is that it is a solid electronic monetary unit.

New videos are connected quickly and within an hour they bring profit, old top ones (which continue to be viewed) give profit after a day, those likes are counted when you inserted the link - old likes are not converted, 4-5 times a day on average there is a generation or conversion of likes into the cryptocurrency likecoin "likecoin" that is LKE.

There is also a first-level referral system on the project - this means that when a person follows a referral link (a link in the description of a video on YouTube will also be a referral link), you will receive 12% of his total income.

There is nothing complicated to connect (everything is described quite simply in the likecoin account) insert a link in the description under the video, it does not cause any harm to the channel - only cryptocurrency;) Everything is simple - register on the Likecoin/ resource and earn. Link to the resource ➬ ➬➬Likecoin

P.S

The main thing in any business is to believe in yourself and your abilities.

If you have a Google account - this is when you can comment, like and dislike, then the channel and other Google features are open to you, all that remains is to set it up, choose a direction and get to work.

A video blogger can be of any nature - you can simply shoot interesting moments of your life, or a purposeful movement, for example, moments in a work environment, moments on a DVR and webcam, educational films, explanations of something, gardening, beekeeping, hobbies like fishing or hunting - you can also embroider with beads, etc.

We can say that there are no restrictions on content and capabilities on YouTube - except, of course, +18 sex, porn, etc. The current trending topics are earnings, medicine, construction and criticism of other channels, and politics also raises the bar - but there is a small but in this direction, racial discrimination should not be present.

Children's channels are also gaining momentum recently - you won't earn money on advertising there, but there will be real income from the behavior of viewers and views.

In general, any topic is good if you use it wisely or apply a business plan strategy - as they say, there is a buyer for every product, and there is a subscriber for every content on YouTube.
