Today’s featured tech tip….
Lots of folks are making good money online by doing this
Did you know it’s possible to earn a good living just by recording videos and uploading them to your own YouTube channel?
It’s true, and countless individuals are doing it as we speak.
And guess what? You don’t have to be an expert on any particular topic and you don’t need to own a bunch of expensive gear in order capture and upload your videos.
Truth be told, there are legions of YouTubers earning 5 and 6 digit per month incomes just by posting interesting and funny videos of everyday things and situations they capture on video with their smartphones.
I’m no YouTube expert by any means, but I’ve done quite a bit of research into the business side of it and the key to success seems to be consistency.
The people who succeed tend to upload lots of videos and wait for several of them to go viral. On YouTube, the key to earning lots of cash is having a “bank” of videos that receive lots of total views every month.
Want to give it a try? You can, and it’s actually pretty easy. Just pull out your phone and start capturing video of anything and everything that catches your interest, then upload it to your YouTube channel.
If you think something is interesting, funny or educational it’s a good bet that lots of other folks will too. And that could result in lots of views.
Work towards getting a few viral videos “banked” on your YouTube channel and before long you could be earning a good living with nothing but your smartphone.
