So, I launched a niche site at the start of 2020. Glad to say it is finally starting to pay off. Already made $3,056.11 since October!

@NicheSiteLady I did this with great success - launched the Youtube channel this way. However, I didn’t find any shortcuts, so did it the simple way - hired VO to read the article as a script and had video editor do the rest.

Does anyone have any tips or tools for converting blog posts to videos? 👀 I'm interested in the best ways to do it for both short-form vertical (Reels) and long-form horizontal (YouTube). 🙏

Crossed 100,000 views per last 90 days 🥳

Top performing videos in 2023. I started this channel in January and so far uploaded 51 videos.

Slow and steady win the race! It seems the majority of my videos only catch on 2-4 weeks after uploading.

One week later and the growth is not stoping!!

It's so fun to celebrate these small wins 🥳

- 45 videos published - $2,471.98 spent on this channel - $531.45 direct revenue from the channel

The growth of my faceless channel I started this year has really picked up! Consistency pays off in the long-term.

The affiliate links in the YouTube description seem to work well, even though my views per video are pretty low.

Black Friday is coming up and this year, I have an email list, so will be trying to send some BF emails and see how it goes. Any tips?

In the most recent Google algo updates, forum sites like Quora got a big boost. That made me wonder if investing time into building a profile on Quora for your affiliate site is worth your time? Does anyone have any experience with @Quora?

My faceless YouTube channel related to my affiliate website has passed 100,000 views this year!

@sixdigitniche I also started a faceless YT channel for my affiliate site, so I would be intrested in more tips/tricks regarding YT. I have some steady growth since I launched, averaging 20k views per month total, but would love to level up

If you have a YT channel and want to immediately level it up, do these 3 things: 1) Pay $100 for a thumbnail, no less. This is your bow-tied, velvet-lined gift box. The chocolate might be good, but the packaging must be great. You are probably an operator, not an artist, so don't try to be both - import an expert's skills when you can. 2) Use less than 7 words in the thumbnail. The title is for words, the thumbnail is for visual things. My best videos have less than 3 words with a VERY custom image that clearly stands out, a hint of curious creativity. It's also clear that AI is not used - my thumbnails could be posters. 3) Make high-quality videos that are difficult to reproduce. This is a faceless channel, but it's been shared in universities, training seminars, prisons, and congress. I do all of my research, and sometimes it takes a whole week. I proofread each script multiple times, for hours. I personally narrate each video, and edit meticulously so that my tone of voice and humor flows well. When I finally hit publish, the video couldn't be better. Conversely, when I look back, I think some of my earliest videos are the worst, but I know I gave 100% of the effort that my skills allowed when I created them. Think about where your video will be proudly shared, if someone will watch the entire thing, and if they would recommend it to a friend. If you want to succeed, you can't cut corners. Interested in more tips? Drop a comment below and maybe I'll share some other advice, might combine into a larger thread/free course if it's useful😉

My Canadian Amazon affiliate earnings have exceeded my USA-based revenue! And my Canadian traffic is really low compared to the USA, so I think I have been missing out on something here.

I recently bought one of my competitors for my affiliate niche site and am in the process of merging the two websites. Really curious to see how this will impact my site!

I barely have 400 followers on Twitter, and rarely post anything, but for some reason, I get so many connections, friends, and clients and meet interesting people that I wonder what would happen if I just focused on this platform a little bit more...

@VincasStonys However, what I was not expecting is that the YouTube channel itself seems to be making some affiliate commissions and is growing quite fast, so now my goal is to get this channel monetized ASAP as by my rough estimation, the ads could add $100-$200 revenue per month

@VincasStonys This was kind of an experiment for me. I already have an affiliate website and I figured I would build a faceless channel to see what would happen. I always embed Youtube videos on the articles, so that in theory should increase page on time, thus better organic traffic.

I made a Youtube channel for my small affiliate website and it's killing it! Not only it's a lot easier and cheaper than I expected, but the affiliate links on the Youtube description actually convert very well. And all of this is just from 26 videos.

@sixdigitniche I assume you outsource your videos (scripwriting, esiting, VO etc.). How much does one video cost you to make? Feel free to breakdown the cost by each category

Throwback to the month I made $30,000 from Youtube Ads. It was exhilarating watching the realtime views. (I had 0 shorts at this time, all 8+ minutes videos!) Here's how I did it: 1) Created 90 keyword-oriented videos (took 8 months to grow subscriber base and give YT data about my audience) 2) Switched to trendy video topics, posting 3 per week, making note of which video did the best each week 3) Continued for 3 months, continually improving small details and a few really popped off... It was simple, not easy. AMA?
