Be a Vlogging Superstar! How to Start, Run, and Grow a Successful Vlog

Do you watch YouTube videos about subjects that you’re passionate about and think that maybe you could talk about that, too? Do you want to make real money by working from home? Then you should consider becoming a vlogger!

Video + Log = Vlog

If you have a great personality, a little tech-savvy, and a lot of enthusiasm for any particular subject, then you should seriously consider starting a vlog channel. You could actually earn money by just talking about what interests you! Because if something interests you, it’s probably of interest to other people, too!

I learned about vlogs on YouTube years ago when they were a fairly new thing. I started making informational vlogs about lots of products and then product review blogs for similar products under my unmarried name.

Now I’m the spokesperson for a line of products, and my full-time job is making informational vlogs for that one company. I can’t use my current name in public ways. But this book is a private project. So, I wrote the book I wish I’d had when I was starting out, in my original vlogging name.

Don’t know where to start with your vlog? I will show you!

I will teach you everything you need to know about how to start, run, and grow a successful vlog-based business. I will show you everything I know about picking a subject matter, how to grow an audience, how to keep that audience, and how to grow to make a real income.

Start Your Vlog Now!

Someone said I should start a vlog and loaned me a video camera. I searched for a how to book and found this one.
Lots of information and encouragement from start to finish. Examples are given when needed. It focuses on vlogging with YouTube but also gives a couple more places to use.
As I don’t use any social media and never had so much as a Facebook account, I know I’ll be struggling with using those outlets for marketing so for now I’ll just concentrate on getting my home setup complete and putting up my videos consistently.
Good read with lots of ideas. I highly recommend 😃😃😃
