If you are reading this than it's really not NEWS, but our website has officially launched!
So what's next??
Well over the next couple of weeks a lot is going to be worked on across all of the platforms we are currently on in order to streamline everything. As for the roadmap ahead or what this means for the channel well there's still a lot happening behind the scenes but things we can say for certain are;
The number of topical/news videos will be cut down a bit.
With more of the smaller news stories being typed up here as articles with images. The reason for this is because there is often a LOT more news stories than I have time to; record, edit, render, upload, title, tag etc.. So most stories I end up not covering, this will allow me to cover a LOT more stories as typing them up is a lot faster. So maybe 1 less topical video a month, but about 10-15 more coverage of current news HERE on the website.
More behind-the-scenes stuff, vlogs, outtakes, & playthroughs!
Because we don't want to flood the channel with random videos that often times don't even get very many views we've opted to not do so many videos like mentioned above. But with the website being a backdoor to our community we've decided those videos will be hosted here. Now right now the video section here is very incomplete but will be finished in the coming days and a lot more user friendly!
Community Focused!
This is the BIGGEST reason for the site! We want to engage with our community as well as grow.
FUN FACT: I never knew who Linus Tech Tips(youtube.com/LinusTechTips) was until I had already been a member of his forums on his website for tech related help found through google. Found out about his youtube channel much later. So this is our way of expanding & growing. It will also allow us to have open discussions with the community to find out what kind of videos YOU want to see.
Merch!
Yes we decided to sell some merch, no we aren't gonna shovel it down your throats every video.
We decided to open up a merchandise section because like we have said before, we want to transcend just a YouTube channel, so we will be cycling through different designs & items to see if anyone is interested. If you want to buy something and help us grow, Awesome! But if not we still love you for your support even being here with us on this roller coaster ride!
Partnered Creators!
One thing we are excited about is our Partnered Creators page!
We have met some awesome content creators over the last couple years & want nothing more than to help every talented small creator I can get more exposure. So here soon we will be unveiling the partnered creators page which will feature creators we think deserve some recognition! Also those creators will be granted access to write articles here on the site as well will be featured in a monthly playlist on OUR channel!!
What do we want for this??? Absolutely nothing! We KNOW how hard it is to grow as a creator. We want to make it easier for everyone!
So if you think your channel deserves to be featured, keep your eyes peeled for that page to go live and submit an application to be one of our partnered creators!
There is more on the way as well to be announced at a later time. I hope you all join us over on the community forums so we can all grow as a community! Because 2020 is the #YearOfAverage
Love ya guys,
Brandon
