I have set myself the challenge of vlogging daily for 30 days, starting yesterday. I have publicly committed to it in my first video. So, the pressure is on to actually do it. My vlogs will not be full videos which you might normally associate or expect with a vlog. Mine are 3 minutes or… Continue reading Daily vlogging for 30 days

Sharing TikTok reply videos on Instagram is surprisingly effective
I discovered in November 2024, or earlier, the reach and clout I can achieve by doing TikTok reply videos. Over the Christmas period, however, I posted some of those reply videos on my Instagram account. And the effect has been surprisingly effective allowing me to give new impetus and life to an Instagram account that… Continue reading Sharing TikTok reply videos on Instagram is surprisingly effective
50,000 YouTube subscribers in 2025?
My target for my YouTube channel in 2025 is 50,000 subscribers. I believe it is a realistic target and achievable. I am at 39,400 at the moment. It will involve the publication, on a consistent basis, of high quality videos of use and/or interest to an Irish audience. I do not want, however, to sacrifice… Continue reading 50,000 YouTube subscribers in 2025?
The new style of vlogging?
I checked out a few YouTube channels yesterday which had been suggested in another video I watched as illustrative of the new style of vlogging which is all the rage on YouTube in 2024, and by inference, in 2025. It is a style of vlogging with very little editing and features one individual speaking to… Continue reading The new style of vlogging?
Reminder to me about short, vertical videos
This blog post is a reminder to me to tap into the power of short, vertical videos in 2025. The power of such videos, for certain tasks and in particular circumstances, is immense. For example, on 25th December 2024 I published a short video which took a few minutes to make an upload to a… Continue reading Reminder to me about short, vertical videos
My Vespa Vlog videos
I have been agonising about what to do with my Vespa ride footage. This footage is the footage taken from a spin around the parish or a little trip someplace on my Vespa scooter. The big question I must address is whether I should be trying to talk about business or law issues on these… Continue reading My Vespa Vlog videos
Paying for podcast episodes?
I am still considering putting certain of my content behind some type of pay wall and let people choose to access it or not. I have considered YouTube memberships on more than one occasion during the year and have pulled back. But I return again and again to the idea of creating exclusive content on… Continue reading Paying for podcast episodes?
The underrated value of communication
I have learned over the years about the value of communication and the ability to communicate well with whoever you are seeking to reach. With every year that passes I am even more convinced about the value of communication skills, especially in my profession as a solicitor. One of the constant criticisms I read and… Continue reading The underrated value of communication
Is overexposure even possible on the internet?
I have got my video creation and editing process down efficiently. I can make and edit and publish a video on my YouTube channel in a short period of time. I could probably do one in 10 minutes, start to finish and uploaded to YouTube. A further 10 minutes would allow me to distribute that… Continue reading Is overexposure even possible on the internet?
The organic growth of my podcast
The last time I checked the average listens per episode stat for my podcast, The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast, was around the 100 mark. Now it is reaching 150 to 170 as an average number of listens per episode. And I have 536 episodes published as I write this today. This, despite, my… Continue reading The organic growth of my podcast
