So, you’re producing videos on YouTube and they’re high quality, yet no one is seeing them? YouTube is not a “if you build it, they will come” kind of platform for most people.

Sure, some get lucky, but most of us have to work for it a little harder. We have to actually promote our videos that we worked so hard on.

Helpful tools, websites, and platforms mentioned
