Hi Everyone! I am George Pierce, I have about 20 years of affiliate marketing experience, and this post is about building a YouTube channel. As far as I know, affiliate marketing and YT channel building are NOT the same, but affiliate marketing is what I know! I have been learning about growing a YT channel for a little over 10 months, so there is much more to learn, but what I am doing is working, it is FREE, and it is simple enough for anyone to follow. If you are seeking a way to make money online without having to spend money, I invite you to continue reading.
Allow me to briefly share my story.
I have been a YTer for about 13 years, but, as an affiliate marketer. This means that I have been using YT as a free traffic source to drive traffic to my websites and squeeze pages. About 13 months ago, I came up with an adaptation of the Faceless Video Strategy, which I put into effect about 10 months ago. The Faceless Video Strategy is a way to make money on YT without having to make videos or be on camera. My adaptation was to focus on Public Domain videos. I added a little research step to help focus on videos that people want to watch and after uploading, I added another step to ger more exposure. By the way, everything is free, there is no catch. I will share more about what I am doing later.
I created a YT channel, Mr. P's Classic TV Fans, applied my affiliate marketing knowledge, and began building a channel. This was new for me, and I LOVE new stuff. About 4 months ago, I added a classic movie channel, and about 2 months ago, I added a game show channel.
The classic movie channel is doing well, with about 2600 views and 870 hours of watch time in the last 28 days, but the game show channel is already gaining real traction.
As you can see, the channel has had 2501 views in the last 48 hours! Notice that the channel flat-lined shortly after it was started. That was my fault. It was due to a copyright strike, that I was guilty of. The strike was against my Classic TV Channel. and YT shut down all three channels. YT has restored the movie and game show channel, unfortunately, not the TV channel. A hard lesson.
As you can see above, the channel was terminated for about 10 days! And, as you can see, the channel is alive and well and GROWING rapidly.
YT does own the platform, and that is something that I am not fond of, but using my adaptation of the Faceless Video Strategy is the easiest way that I believe that a newbie can find to make money online.
The above results are at zero cost.
Content Marketing Methods!??
Above is an example of what I am used to as an affiliate marketer using a content marketing strategy. YTers are content marketers, but what you see is not typical, most videos get the traffic upfront. But there is a difference regarding the video content! Since I include research as the first step, it enables me to give viewers what they want, not what I want, not what I think they want, but what they actually want. The research is fast and easy, in fact, there is a free tool that does all the work. The advantage of this research is that when YT does share the video, people watch it!
DUH!??
This may sound like a no-brainer, but most channels are not doing this step, they are probably unaware. The good news is that it gives me an advantage, and it can give you an advantage as well.
I have broken down what I am doing in detail into three steps that anyone can follow. I invite you to check out my free Facless Video Training.
I am presently uploading about a video a day, and with research and sharing, it still takes less than an hour a day,
Thank you for reading.
Much success,
George Pierce

Great news indeed that Youtube reconnected your channel George Pierce and thank you for your Faceless Video Strategy because it's awesome for sure.
Not all of my online efforts work, but most do, however, I can still remember when nothing seemed to work, thus I share this method. Thank you, Terri.
