Don't trust anyone who says they can make it happen for you. Don't buy any product that says it can get you views or income from it. There are way, way more scammers than legitimate advice on this.
You don't need to go reading through all that advice tho. If it's something you want to do, the FIRST step is make interesting videos. Until you are already doing that, none of the rest of the advice is gonna help you. Youtube wont give a rats ass about you until you are already getting views. So content first. Decide what you want to DO and BE on Youtube, then set out to be that. Once you get some traction, then you can worry about monetizing it. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
