RE: Why do Youtubers Fail on Dtube/Steem

in #steem6 years ago

That's not a bad idea. Because I'd love to see some of these guys make it here, and bring over the audiences they have from YouTube. That's another issue though; they assume that because they have 100,000 followers on YouTube that they'll just follow them over to Steemit. But I've found that getting people over here is like pulling teeth.

Maybe once the signup process becomes more "fluid" then, not only will these YTers build their Steem following faster, but they'll get rewarded quicker. Could be good and bad now that I think about it. Maybe it's best they can't do that lol. Then it would become just another community of "post and run" content creators.

Brandon, have you ever tried creating exclusive content here, and telling your youtube followers about it?

Because if they have a choice, they will always stick with youtube. But if they like you enough, they may come over to check out your dLive EXCLUSIVES. :)

Yeah, that’s actually what I’ve done now. Up until a month or so ago I was posting on YouTube and embedding to Steemit. But now I’m only using Dlive for my steem related videos. I’m not a major YouTube creator or influencer, but I’ve brought on a lot of people from YouTube bc of my Steem(it) videos. I’ve pretty much told them that now they can follow me on Steemit to continue seeing that video content. 😁

Clever. Always keep your youtubing going, and then mention when there is extra exclusive content on dLive, and you will be doing a great thing for Steem. Thanks. :)
