The significant revenue increase on my YouTube channel from my videos covering the Conor McGregor trial have been an eye opener. I never saw YouTube as being of any significance from an ad revenue perspective. But I have to reconsider the situation now and think about whether I want to make videos for ad revenue… Continue reading Ad revenue from YouTube-worth chasing?

Peeling the spuds while making a video
I made a video yesterday evening as I peeled potatoes for the dinner. And it elicited a tremendous response, especially about the everyday activity I was engaged in as I made the video. Commenters asked what kind of potatoes they were, advised me to buy a potato peeler as it would be quicker, how I… Continue reading Peeling the spuds while making a video
Smart alec comments will be ignored
It would be easy for me to be put off my stride by unpleasant, sneering comments on my YouTube channel, and let those comments determine or influence how I make my videos. But it is something I must guard against and ensure it does not happen. Because for every smart alec, sneering comment there are… Continue reading Smart alec comments will be ignored
The comments online about the Nikita Hand/Conor McGregor case
Some of the comments on my YouTube channel in relation to the Conor McGregor case have been shocking. What surprises me, however, is that a good number of the appalling comments are from women. I would have thought that chauvinism and misogyny could explain the appalling, gross, invasive comments from men. But the comments from… Continue reading The comments online about the Nikita Hand/Conor McGregor case
Populist videos versus the more obscure
I am getting a lot of mileage out of my coverage of the Conor McGregor/Nikita Hand civil trial in the High Court.

But I need to figure out if these types of videos are of practical benefit to me and… Continue reading Populist videos versus the more obscure

It is an opportunity for me to further grow my channel and expand my channel’s… Continue reading The Conor McGregor Trial
2 new video ideas
I have noticed, not for the first time, that reply videos on TikTok perform tremendously well. They obviously get a great deal of respect and importance from TikTok so that they are shown to greater numbers of people. I did a few last week when I succumbed to the temptation to actually reply to some… Continue reading 2 new video ideas
I reached 35,000 YouTube subscribers yesterday
I reached 35,000 YouTube subscribers over the weekend. This is a metric that I keep a close eye on, and I admit to taking some pride in reaching this figure. Leaving aside the pride, however, my YouTube channel has played such a pivotal role in the growth of my solicitor’s practice and my personal brand… Continue reading I reached 35,000 YouTube subscribers yesterday
Playing to the gallery
When I make videos I can play to the gallery, if I choose. But it is not the smartest approach for me or my business. What I am referring to is making a video that I know, because it is about a ‘hot’ or topical issue, will generate a lot of views and comments. Multiples… Continue reading Playing to the gallery
Video making experimentation
I’m experimenting a little at the moment with my video creation. I have always done this, trying different things. Now I am expanding a little further and trying to broaden my repertoire of videos. I sometimes have this fantasy of making such good videos from a production and cinematography perspective, whilst at the same time… Continue reading Video making experimentation
