Relating to rising on a social media platform, most individuals suppose that the one factor it’s a must to do is add content material.
And within the first occasion, they’re proper. The extra you expose your self to a platform, the extra alternatives you may have for others to find you. Nevertheless, if all you do is add content material with no particular objective, you’ll be able to simply waste time and keep in the identical place ceaselessly.
That is what occurred to me the primary time I attempted to be a content material creator in 2019. I created a YouTube channel with no particular area of interest, and my solely objective was to add weekly movies. I did precisely what everybody instructed me was the one key to progress: I uploaded movies persistently.
I didn’t have a technique, particular movies for an viewers, or the appropriate data. 5 years later, I haven’t been in a position to monetize that channel.
For that cause, this yr, I made a decision to do one thing totally different. I wished to develop a platform the appropriate manner and add content material that is smart for an viewers, not simply put up stuff for the sake of posting.
