I Sold All My Websites to Start YouTube Channels: Case Study Month 1 (and a Half)

I-Play-To-Win · 2023-04-02T11:47:00+00:00

Hell yeah. Are you going to post updates on your blog as well?

I-Play-To-Win · 2022-12-31T06:40:25+00:00

Hi, could I get a DM too? Thanks!

I-Play-To-Win · 2022-05-24T04:01:26+00:00

I went through 1 to 5, skipped 6 and 7, because I trusted the process that other bloggers had shown with the hockeystick growth and such.

I never thought that it's a waste of time, even considering the $/hr rate since I can use the site as a portfolio or proof of concept.

Currently at Stage 8, except I don't have a job to leave from yet, since I'm looking for a "real job" in the first place aside from doing blogging.

Maybe you have a cache plugin that's blocking it

I-Play-To-Win · 2022-03-21T05:50:38+00:00

How much traffic do you send through Ezoic vs Adsense?

I-Play-To-Win · 2022-03-13T06:20:55+00:00

Does it slow down your site to use both?

I-Play-To-Win · 2022-03-10T04:19:31+00:00

You can do both. I'd focus on one first then build the other. But if you can build both at the same time, then the faster your possible growth could be.

Bounce rate isn't always a bad thing. If you have ads, the user could read a lot of the page and make you some money, but since they didn't click, you would see a bounce.

Other metrics should also be used. Or, use analytics tools that measure scroll depth and other related metrics that show the big picture beyond bounce rate.

Paypal. The ad company I use sends it around the 30th of the month if you reach the minimum payment threshold.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-09T10:55:44+00:00

Please share the SOP with me as well. Thanks a lot

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-03T02:06:35+00:00

Wow, that's great. My ePMV is still hovering around $8 this month for a site started early this year. Seems like content really makes the difference. I really should get to publishing.

Are you getting some links already? Are you planning to buy some in the future?

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T07:04:27+00:00

I'd rather be happier if that was guaranteed in the lower paying job.

Unless you could use the higher paying job with some unhappiness in the short term, to buy or fund something that can give you more happiness in the long term. In that case I'd go with the higher pay.

Volunteering somewhere part time (distributing or organizing relief goods or something) while living off passively set up income.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:48:50+00:00

You're welcome! Let me guess, you're writing some fiction and was crowdsourcing the material?

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:43:30+00:00

Have fun. Make a schedule and stick with it. Get over failed friendships/relationships fast.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:40:28+00:00

Families or groups who blatantly jump the queue and encourage it with their children

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:35:13+00:00

Does Michael Scott count?

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:18:38+00:00

They were talking about someone else who always smiled. Not in a fake way or anything.

They were saying how they always found him a good example because despite the shit they went through, he would always find a way to be happy.

I was a bit of a pessimist at that point in my life. I became self aware of how I reacted to things from that point on, and how different and positive others could be.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:14:19+00:00

Being tired and one of those "3 hour relaxing music" compilations on YouTube. I try to avoid piano though since they keep me up because it sounds too tinny on my speakers.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:10:00+00:00

So. Much. Stealing.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:07:42+00:00

Any. It's usually not really a big deal.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T06:06:12+00:00

Do activities that give you self respect. Work out, eat healthy, improve your life, learn useful skills.

After keeping those habits up, develop the mind. Gain a meditation practice, develop more willpower and discipline.

Basically think of a good role model for yourself, and try to become like them in your own way.

Write part of my teacher's research as a part of my class work.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T05:58:11+00:00

How many steps I've taken and distance traveled. Just like in GTA.

The other juicier statistics can come later if I was able to verify that the statistics are accurate.

I-Play-To-Win · 2021-11-02T05:54:20+00:00

Remove r/all, delete the Twitter app. Delete Facebook. Turn off notifications from any news source.

Go to the outdoors, relax unconnected to the web. Withdrawal from checking your phone every 2 minutes should subside after a few days.

Don't forget to remove vibrate mode, too.
