To make it in YouTube, you really have to know your onions.

I'm talking about your audio, video quality, and content.

Post trash and you'll be watching your video alone

So, you'll need sound systems, a DSLR camera at least, a video editing skill ...

You might even need to hire two or three hands cause you can't do it alone most times.

Blogging, on the other hand isn't easy, but it's cheaper.

To break through, you really need to know how to write.

That's a skill you can't do without.

You'll also need to have some webmaster skills to be able to troubleshoot some issues.

There's a lot that goes into blogging.

The fact is, none is easy.

Consider both pros and cons, and choose your poison wisely.

Alas, your commitment is what determines if you succeed or not.

Peace.
God bless you

Blogging. YouTube is really hard to keep up with believe me. It also depends on the niche. Blogging about Education, Travel, Employment or general information for instance will fetch you more just for the consistency because for YouTube, people will look for your face and experience and you will wear out quickly. With blogging, you have a space to be creative or to just load information, vlogging, you have to be interesting at all times or spend a lot of money to showcase your experience, you really have to be made already.

Your response shows you are very knowledgeable in this space. A quick question from me though, you mentioned the DLSR camera as a good option for video but won't the video quality from a good iphone camera suffice? e.g. iphone 11 ,12 or 13.

I go for youtube.

If you do funny videos you can get popular quick.
Funny videos similar to people with many millions followers o.
For example you can go to university and be sharing twenty thousand naira each to five students. Those that answered your easy questions correctly.
Put it on your youtube. Do similar things regularly.
Watch how foreigners do their funny skits.

Youtube is very f*cking competitive. Every Tom, dick and harry with phone wan start channel. Some that don't even have one sense of humor suddenly realize say na comedy be their calling because they see some rank of skits comm makers on the rise...

My simple pick is Crypto grin Dae there de dull now, Crypto sweet

If you want access my secret Crypto trading bot i use to make steady profits without lifting a finger to trade send email to highvaluestacks@gmail.com

Youtube is also blogging but video blogging.

It is hard to grow a YouTube channel, you need to get about 1k sub and 4000 watch hours to start to monetize content.

But if you have a good camera, good audio and you can edit your video and good content, money for ads, you will get followers.

Most Youtubers with large followers have professional team behind them which makes their job easier.

Don't forget cpm is very low in Nigeria, so your content need to be targeting countries with high cpm to break even.

Also youtube takes around 55% of your revenue.

You also have US tax to pay, if your content is targeting US viewers

The upside is if you are consistent, you can make it but be ready to pay a price of complete dedication to content creation .

The downside is that, you might spend lot of money to create quality content and you won't get views.

I think I need to learn more from you

Blogging is still hot as ever. The problem is most Nigerians don't have the know-how and smartness to keep up with the dizzying pace at which niche blogging and SEO is moving. The few who do are still smiling to the bank.

Go to sites like Flippa, Empire Flippers, Motion Invest, and so on. You'd see tons of blogs on sale that are generating top dollars. Of course, they weren't built within just one day or few weeks. That takes us to the biggest problems Nigerians now have with blogging -- impatience, inconsistency, and unwillingness to move with quality content trends.

You can shot with an iPhone ... You just have to be creative in terms of camera angles and lighting ...

How about YouTube versus Tiktok?

Which one have faster monetizing rate these days?
Re: Which Is Better To Start In 2022: Blogging Or Youtube by Thanos5555: 11:53am On Dec 23, 2021
OGa the thing amongst what you listed is not which is better, it is which do you have more contents to publish in,

No be Sabon-gari market you dey talk about, you are talking about a content dependent market,

So go and sit down and ask yourself where do you have more contents to offer.

Good bye

Yes man! Good point made. But it still takes us back to what i hinted earlier which is content. Blogging thrives on content. An Established blog generating good income got to that level of success with consistency in dishing out steady 'content'. Even if times has changed, the Major anchor of blogging is still content. CONTENT in KING. And just like you said, Most people(Nigerians especially) these days are not only not just impatient, but don't have content. I am talking High engaging, relevant, SEO ranking monetizable content!!!

Have these - and money will flow your way be it with Blogging or Youtube.
