Hello all. This past week I slowed down and followed the advice to let my video simmer on YouTube before getting all wound up and posting immediately. I also modified the lighting for the photo on my thumbnail, then used ChatGPT to help me with time stamps and chapters (per one of Alexa's videos since I had no clue that was a thing)...and one of my videos surpassed anything I have experienced...with 477 views so far, I picked up an extra 25 subscribers, and had some lovely comments from viewers. I felt more authentic which was my biggest win. Comments and likes haven't been happening much for me up until this point. This has been an exciting experience. Big thanks to Alexa for creating/hosting such a large, supportive community that is encouraging me to keep on creating. My channel is blossoming and feels more and more like something I can sustain. Here is the video link if anyone wants to peek and share advice. Thank you. 🙂https://youtu.be/YvWy3wptQPs
