Hi Gillian. I’ll def check out the podcast. My website has been up for 3 months but I was taught not to add affiliate links until my site matures and gets more traffic. I’ve heard this from multiple online teachers too. I do understand but I’m trying to figure out ways to make side money to pay for all the resources I’m using.

[TubeDecoders]

Absolutely love your videos! Your dedication to creating quality content really shines through. I admire your success and hope that my channel can grow to be as amazing as yours one day. Keep inspiring us all!

[SamanthaRegimbal]

New fan of your content. Such an inspo girl!!

[mqcmedia]

GP your always providing great content looking forward to the uscreen training and other helps. 5 tips under 10 minutes good job!

[mimisart]

Great Tips. Even though I have 720 subs, there are very few comments and there's very few engagement on my videos. Also in the middle of getting back on the YouTube wagon after being dormant for 5 months. I am looking for people that resonate with my art and me as a person. I do hang out in other content creator's comment sections to see if I can answer questions that are not being answered by that creator themselves...but be careful not to go down too deep in that rabbit hole, it can turn into wasted time instead of invested time.

I know it's a personal question and you don't have to answer, but you give off a vibe. Are you religious? You don't have to say what religion.

Can we grow followers organically without boosting or sponsoring?

[thompson]

Growing and grooming waist-length hair?

[paulcaskey]

I have six subscribers with no content. It only took 19 years.

[mandylewis]

When will Creator Fast Track open back up?

[divyv]

Hey Gillian, very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?

[albirruakbar]

I see you run a lot ads for getting views, didn't hurt your channel?

[hassanbhatti]

I thought you did not do ads and grow only organically. You do post ads on youtube to grow as well. So all you say in your videos is jist to keep people coming back. Coz if they grow as well, who will view your videos.
