Have any members made the switch from blogging to YouTube? If so, how has their experience been during the transition?
 
I engage in both YouTube and blogging activities, and I don't perceive any compelling reason to abandon one in favor of the other.
 
At the moment, which platform is generating more profit for you?

Currently, I am in the process of gradually learning and exploring blogging. While I may consider venturing into YouTube at some point in the future, I believe that both methods have the potential to generate a substantial income.
 
In 2018, I made the decision to shift my focus from blogging to YouTube. However, I did not achieve the level of success I had hoped for. Despite putting effort into editing and creating quality content, my most viewed video only garnered 400 views.
 
I engage in both blogging and YouTube to enhance the appeal and engagement of my channels/articles. This strategy has proven effective for me. Achieving significant success on YouTube involves several key factors:

  1. Consistency: Regularly uploading videos is essential to retain your target audience and maintain favor with the algorithm.
  2. Audience understanding: Consistency plays a crucial role because it helps you understand what type of content resonates positively with your viewers. Uploading videos allows you to gauge their preferences.
  3. Multiple traffic sources: It's important to diversify your sources of views, including external referrals, browsing, and search results. The wider the distribution of your videos, the better the chances of success.
  4. Some element of luck: Honesty is key here. Nurturing the algorithm and performing in alignment with its requirements can take time before it starts recognizing and promoting your content.
I hope this information has been helpful to you.
 
In the past, I made an attempt at blogging without much knowledge or experience. Being young at the time, I quickly gave up on it. I then shifted my focus to YouTube, but unfortunately, I faced challenges and didn't find the success I had hoped for. However, I remained engaged with YouTube for a longer period compared to blogging. Currently, I create small videos as a hobby and also provide editing assistance to a friend's YouTube channel.
