Hello everyone ,i have a quick question ,as im sure its quite common. But, what other way is there to be successful in getting yourself out there other than the typical, most popular way which is youtube! I always thought about recording videos but at the same time im very nervous about being in front of the camera, and i want to be different from everyone else. What are some tips and advice you can give me?
Thanks in Advance!!!!

You could always make a blog!! I've always wanted to make videos, so last year as an alternative I started my blog and I never regretted it. It's been an amazing experience! You'd love it. And then once you get a good following, maybe then consider youtube. That's what I've done and I just started my channel a couple weeks ago. I'm a very shy person and I do get extremely nervous but I want to do it so bad that its worth it. Never let any fears hold you back. You gotta take chances. Once you take the innovative to start, you can only move forward <3

Social Media, like instagram,twitter etc. You could share your blog there too.

When I started I would just comment on blogs I loved and asked them to check out my blog. In return, people ended up giving me shout outs. Also, Doug guest posts for blogs will give you exposure. Social media sites help a lot. Pinterest and Instagram are easy ways to get your blog noticed with the photos you take and use. I'm not in any means an expert, but that's just what I did to help me get to the point I'm at now! :)

I agree with these ladies a blog is a good way to put yourself out there as well as social media sites I've started like a few months ago and little by little I've gained followers. :)

Wordpress. Even better, buy a domain and some hosting, and self-install blogging software (even then I still recommend Wordpress over Blogger/Blogspot).
