Contrary to popular belief, I'm posting in here to give back to both Alexa and this community. Even if no one likes or comments on the post, it really doesn't matter. I'm happy to share my knowledge and what I've seen work with both me and others! Since I've been on this platform, there's one community that has really helped me and also inspired me. And that's this one. In fact, it's Alexa's journey that encouraged me to leave my job to try to pursue content creation full-time. Would I have taken that path anyway? Probably. But her journey and her success definitely helped! @Dr. Saundra Stancil has also been so welcoming, and I appreciate the hard work she's putting in managing the community! From the bottom of my heart, I wish everyone the success they deserve with their YouTube channels! 👍

If you only put your CTA (call to action) at the end of the video, most of your audience will never see it. Here is where to put it instead. 1. Homepage link at the top of your channel page. Your most important link should be the first thing people see when they visit your profile. 2. Inside the video before the average view duration drops off. Check your analytics. Find where viewers stop watching. Your CTA needs to happen before that moment. 3. First or second line of your description. Those are the only lines visible without clicking "more". Use them. 4. Pinned comment. Stays visible at the top of every comment section. Viewers who are engaged enough to read comments will see it. I got this wrong for a long time. I was relying entirely on end screens and wondering why nobody was clicking through. Once I moved my CTAs earlier and used all four placements, it made an immediate difference. Which of these are you already doing? And which one did you not know about?

Hello all, I have an odd set of skills that I'm not sure if they merge on one channel. I"m a Naturopathic doctor, and I've been in oncology for the past 20 years along with general health issues (think family practice) and got burnt out. 8 years ago I shifted into fertility. Do I post just on fertility? Is that too small of a niche? Or do I go broad and general b/c as a primary care giver, I am well versed in several issues (ie) autoimmune disease. So confused what to focus on. I treat almost everything.... sigh... Any help in orienting me in the right direction would be so appreciative. Many thanks!

I’m hoping for some advice around YouTube → Skool. I run a Skool community for UK first-time buyers in England, and I know the transformation happens once people are inside the community. The problem I’m having is using my YouTube to actually get the right people into Skool. My YouTube content is practical and aimed at people who want to buy but aren’t quite ready yet. So deposit, credit, and understanding the buying process — but I’m struggling to turn viewers into community members. There are so many people in the UK who want to buy a home. They don’t need convincing, they just need guidance. I know I can help once they find their way in, but I’m clearly missing something in how I’m using YouTube. If you’ve grown a community using YouTube, I’d really value your perspective: What would you focus on first? How would you position YouTube to feed a Skool community? Is there anything obvious I might be overlooking? Any honest advice would really help — I’m here to learn and improve.
