How to start YouTube travel Vlogging?

Many people, weary of office work and city life, dream about traveling the world continuously and covering their travel expenses through YouTube travel vlogging. The main issue arising here is that with millions of longing hearts to travel, the chances are that not everyone can become successful in the world of digital nomads. However, it doesn’t mean that you should forget about your dream. Remember that the reward goes to those chasing their dream.

In this article, I have provided you with some useful tips as to where to start and what to observe in order to become a successful YouTube Traveler.

Become a Niche YouTube Travel Vlogger

These days and with the competition present in this field, if your YouTube channel is dedicated to general aspects of traveling around the world, you will not go so far. Instead, you must stick to the aspect of traveling that is most appealing to you and your audience. For example, you can talk about different cultures around the world, or focus on diverse cuisine in parts of different countries. If you’re into luxury travel, you could look into how to make this more accessible to everyone – for example, while a fractional jet ownership cost might be too much, if you’re smart and know what to look for, you can fly private for not much more than the cost of a first class ticket.
. If your followers are also interested in this, they will definitely appreciate any tips and tricks from people they consider knowledgeable in this area, including you.

Many people dream of turning their thirst for travel into a source of income. Your success story could even begin in a Liverpool city car park in a Hertz hire car.

Video Quality Is Important

Keep in mind that quality must always come first. Washingtons Blog contains many information about YouTube that says, you might not be able to post for a couple of days on YouTube, but do not post until you have the quality to offer. Work on your videos and deem it as your career. Take them seriously and do it as professionally as you would do it for your boss in an office job. If you are not a pro video editor, then go for tutorials on the internet. There are plenty of them offered free or at really low prices.

Have an Edit and Post Schedule

It is essential to post regularly on YouTube. Until you don’t post at certain times and continuously, no one will discover your channel. YouTube travel vlogging requires you to be scheduled, disciplined, and determined. So, create a schedule for your YouTube edit and post times and stick to it. Try your best not to fall behind with the plan. It is your career, after all.

Keep on the Path of Improvement

Always keep learning and improving your skills. No one knows what they will face tomorrow. So get yourself prepared. Learn about traveling and camping hacks, discover survival tips, and most importantly find new tools to improve the quality of your videos. This is the way of YouTube Travel Vlogging!

How to earn money through YouTube Vlogging?

Just keep the good work and sponsors will show up. They will ask you to advertise their services and products in your videos, affiliate their links and some of them might even offer a fully expenses covered trip to a specific destination they have in mind, only for you to produce videos for them. There are lots and lots of other ways a YouTube Traveler can make money. You need to discover them for yourself!

It’s never too late

You might have heard that YouTube travel vlogging is stuffed and crowded and there is no more room for newer travelers and that all the money and ways of earning money through it are occupied and stuff like these.

Well, to be honest, I have to admit that YouTube has become more populated compared to what it was a few years ago. But so has the ways and opportunities to become an earning vlogger. Now there are many more methods to earn money on YouTube (especially a vlogger) compared to just four years ago. So, put the fear aside, dive into YouTube travel vlogging, and chase your dream!

Who viewed my Facebook profile?

There are generally four methods to see who viewed your Facebook profile which are as follow.

As a Facebook user, you might be curious to know who has viewed your Facebook profile. In this blog, I would mention all the possible ways, but you can rarely catch your Facebook visitor‘s name.

I was sometimes curious to find out who is spying on my Facebook profile, and I started to search for all the possible ways or any recommendations across the web. I finally came to a list that I would mention bellow and my conclusion on how to see who has viewed my Facebook profile at the end of this article.

Can I see who viewed my Facebook?

As I have seen on many platforms like Quora, the most asked question about Facebook profile viewing is how users can find the name of visitors to their profile. It could have lots of reasons, and it may even help you to grow your Facebook profile faster.

Knowing who has viewed your Facebook account is one way to guess how Facebook suggestion might work, and you can change the audience of your profile. Though Facebook itself has announced that you cannot see who has viewed the profile using Facebook profile viewer but there are still some coding-ways to find out the address of visitors.

Although I recommend another platform like LinkedIn in which you can easily find out about the profile views or who has searched your name. if anyone searches your name on the internet and they open your LinkedIn profile, you can see their profile through the platform easily. LinkedIn would notify you about profile visitors.

Who viewed your Facebook profile?

There are four methods to check Facebook visitors, which I explain here:

Method # 1: social profile extension page

Type social profile chrome extension on Google. There is one extension that helps you to find out your Facebook visitors. To use this way:

click on three-dot icon on top right of Chrome browser
Scroll down to see “More Tools”
Find extensions from the menu.
Search for social profile view notification.
Choose “Add to Chrome” and click on “Add extension.”
Login to your Facebook profile and click on your profile picture to enter your profile
You must see the visitors added on the menu.

Method #2: Viewing the page source of your FB profile

This way is the easiest that not all users are aware of. you will find the ID of Facebook visitors through a browser (if there is any).

Using “initialchatfriendslist”

You can use the source of your page with different codes to see visitors; the first one is to use “Initialchatfriendslist.” Go over the steps below:

Login to your FB account
Go to your profile (by clicking your profile picture)
Then right-click and find the view source (you can access this section by developer tools on mac too).
Press CTRL+Fto open the search bar.
Find the “initialchatfriendslist”

Now, it redirects you to a Section of the page source that you can see lots of numbers between “initialchatfriendslist “. These are the IDs of the people who viewed your profile the most.

Tip: Google chrome is most handy for this method

Using “Visitors”

Another way is to see the ID number of visitors by finding the word match “initialchatfriendslist.” and see the list of ID but it might be challenging to know which ID belongs to which visitors.

Method # 3: Facebook profile viewer app (not recommended)

There are many tools available on the internet, but I am not sure if I can provide you the service you need. Viewing Facebook profile is not as easy as they promise in their advertising. So, it is better not to look for this way, better you use the two methods that I mentioned above.

Sum up

I hope you can finally get some clue about how to see Facebook profile viewers or visitors. Comment below and share your experience with me.

Facebook’s fact-checking policy is working

Since 2016, and after the US presidential election, Facebook decided to run a policy to reduce the distribution of false reports on the platform. Facebook’s fact-checking policy is performed in the form of labels indicating the validity and reliability of the reposts shared by users. Misleading stories are labeled as “Disputed by [third party fact checkers]”.

Since 2016, and after the US presidential election, Facebook decided to run a policy to reduce the distribution of false reports on the platform. Facebook’s fact-checking policy is performed in the form of labels indicating the validity and reliability of the re-posts shared by users. Misleading stories are labeled as “Disputed by [third party fact checkers]”.

The question that if the policy is working or not is answered by the fact that since the implementation of the social media strategy, more people are preventing themselves from re-sharing news and report labeled as unreliable.

A study conducted by California University also approved the same results among their 500 participants, showing that people are now more careful about what news they share on social media, after the move Facebook made in this regard.

In 2016, Facebook’s fact-checking policy introduced the labels by which the authenticity status of reports and news were announced. However, in 2017, the tags were displayed by a number of related articles and pages under the post, that implied whether the said report was true or false.

Facebook claims that this latter move helped even more users to recognize whether what they are reading is based on reality or not.

Facebook is checking the validity of stories published by users

Reportedly, almost 60% of Americans are now less likely to re-share stories and news without making sure of their validity. This has a positive relationship with the fact that Facebook users are so careful about the credibility of their own pages and profiles since they stop where they might be seen as invalid.

Although Facebook’s fact-checking policy is working, there remains the issue of “scale.” Despite the positive impact this move has had on reducing false stories’ distribution, the effect is so little that in the larger scale it is almost seen as “nothing is done”.

With covering 42 languages, Facebook has already paid a large amount of money to the third party fact-checkers to monitor contents from daily 2.4 billion users on the platform. The amount of the stories checked so far by these groups can reach as little as 5% of the daily published contents by Facebook users, and this is an insignificant amount.

Facebook is currently looking into possible technological and automated solutions to implement the idea even more broadly. This Facebook fact-checking policy is still an infant, showing a prosperous future, going hand in hand with computational linguistics technology.

Schedule for sharing the vlogs on YouTube

Force yourself to create content and post on time. You may not get what you are waiting for, by posting once a month or every other month.

You’ll reach a lot of subscribers by planning your content that I suggest posting at least once a week to get a good result.

Don’t do it just for money

If you are expecting to be rich in a short time by vlogging, you may not reach your desire in a short time. It may take about several months or even a year. So, it is better to focus on the vlogging and its techniques for being a successful vlogger rather than just thinking about money.

It takes time to know how to create the content, know your audience, to research, to find your niche,etc.

Be honest

Authenticity is important to keep and grow you as a successful vlogger. At first, you may get a lot of views, but if you exaggerate or don’t tell all it is needed to the audience, they would know the truth after a while, and you may end up with losing subscribers and having no video view.

Choose the best YouTube name

Tell stories

Stories seem fun and attracting, and people are more likely to follow a story and they get more connected to you by knowing more about you and your life.

Good lighting and audio quality

People may also get attracted by your voice or the way that you speak, so speak clearly and don’t leave long silence and try to record the video in indoor light or the daylight for better image quality.

Share your vlog on different social media

That is the easiest way for promoting your vlog. Share the vlog on several platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Have a usual background

No matter where you are recording a video, decorate the background normally.

Don’t listen to the haters

Obviously, you may face some dislikes, but you shouldn’t get disappointed and just ignore them.

How much Facebook, Instagram, and other social media are worth?

As social media platforms such as Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, etc. have become part of our daily routine, many people wonder how much would these popular platforms worth.

There are some elements which help us to get the answer and finally compare the platforms and get to the result that which one is most used and most worth.

Facebook

Facebook is on top of the most worth platform list, and the only reason is their constant update. They provide both web and mobile platforms, and it is known as the best platform to share videos on it. 88% of Facebook activities are on mobile.

Since the number of Facebook users is increasing, it has grown in engagement and number of users, which are the two most important elements for investors. Moreover, the period that users spend on Facebook matters for inventors, which is 50 minutes per day. As the top platform, Facebook’s latest market cap price worth $559 billion.

Snapchat

Snapchat’s first-quarter earnings were reported to be dreadful, and it was much less than what Snap’s founder and SEO Evan Spiegel predicted. It is not strange if social media networks don’t reach what they were predicting at their first quarter, as Snapchat couldn’t get what it wanted. But you’d better know that it wasn’t just Snapchat who couldn’t make it, also Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn experienced the decrease in their value.

Twitter: 24% decrease
Facebook: 12% decrease
Linked in: 10% decrease
Snapchat: 25% decrease

With the fall happening to Snapchat, it decided to focus less on user growth and more on engagement. All in all, it is claimed that Snapchat’s worth is $24 billion in market cap.

Twitter

Twitter is one of the social media messaging platforms which became public in November 2013, and became famous and got many users. You can boost hashtags on Twitter and make anything viral. Celebrities and President Donald Trump welcomed the platform. Also, journalists and reporters use Twitter screenshots of celebrities and influencers for their posts and stories.

Twitter didn’t start well at the beginning because it had low user growth, and it was losing money for a while. Then it reported that in April of 2018 it had the second profitable quarter and it mentioned that it has got more users.

Twitter’s market cap was estimated $11.8 billion to $36 billion from June 2017 to June 2018.

YouTube

As you may know, Google bought YouTube in 2006 for $1.65 billion. At first, people thought that Google has overpaid and made a mistake! Now after sometimes, everyone agrees that it was the smart move of Google.

By developing smartphones and with the rise of online videos, more and more people prefer to stop watching TV, and they would rather watch whatever they are interested in on their cellphone.

YouTube’s revenue in 2015 was $3.5 billion, which increased to $5.9 billion in 2016, that was a notable growth. Now YouTube is estimated to be worth up to $160 billion.

LinkedIn

People from all around the world have a LinkedIn account, and 154 million American workers have LinkedIn profiles, which tell us that America has the most LinkedIn users. The platform provides 24 different languages which let people from all territories have a LinkedIn profile, and 70% of LinkedIn activities are on mobile.

LinkedIn has been expanding its advertising platform recently, and it has been successful in it. Now LinkedIn is worth up to $26 billion.

Pinterest

Pinterest was found on 2009, two years before Snapchat and three years after Twitter, but it might be clear that Pinterest is not as popular as Instagram and Snapchat, and it might be the reason that it is less valuable than Instagram and Snapchat. In the revenue of 2018, Pinterest earned $755 million, and happily, it is increasing its revenue and has experienced good development.

It had 100 million users in 2015, which got doubled in 2018 and increased to 200 million monthly active users. Also, it has a high engagement level, and the spent time per visit is 34 minutes. Also, it is a good platform to discover new brands and products. In addition, the number of searches on Pinterest is high, which is more than 2 billion every day, and 55% of users purchase what they need on the site.

Pinterest’s company valuation is between $10 and $11.3 billion at the moment, but we are predicting a rise in the near future.

Final Thoughts

By increasing the number of social media users, we are expecting to have an increase in the valuation of social media networks. Also, some new platforms may come up and grow higher than the current platforms, and clearly, some platforms might be forgotten, and no one would use them anymore.

Which of the platforms is your favorite? How much time do you spend on them? Which one is the best and which one should be avoided?

We are all ears to know about your opinion.

How many friend requests can I send on Facebook?

Every Facebook user like to have more friends on the platform and communicate with more people every single day. All we know about Facebook is our experience, and there is no official statement about the number of requests that one can send per day. Knowing Facebook’s algorithm has become a mystery, and every Facebook user is looking for a way to get the answer without getting blocked and being concerned while doing actions.

An important point about sending a request to someone is that you shouldn’t repeatedly request in a short period of time and you should look natural, if not, Facebook would recognize you as spam, and it may temporarily block you from sending a friend request. To be safe, add some friends in the morning, some in the afternoon and some at night. That’s the method I am using for a long time without facing any problem.

Before sending friend requests to others, you should follow these tips to increase the chance of being accepted by others as their Facebook friend and also ways to get requests from others:

Choose an eye-catching and impressive profile photo to attract people so people can’t ignore to accept you as a friend.
Add some details about yourself in your bio and describe your interests
Tell people that you are interested in having Facebook friends in the bio section
By changing your account’s “post-privacy” to “Public,” you can get friend requests from Facebook users
Change “who can send you the friend request” to “Everyone”
Change “public post comments” to “public”

After doing all of them, it is time to start requesting Facebook users, and it may come to your mind that how many Facebook users can I send requests per day?

How many friend requests can I send on Facebook in a day?

There is no official statement about the number of people you can send friend requests per day, and it is not the same for all Facebook users, BUT you can only have up to 1000 pending requests on Facebook. Whenever you reach it, you can’t send friend requests any more until the people who you have sent a friend request, accept, decline or delete your friend request.

But sometimes it would happen that you haven’t reached the 1000 friend requests, but you can’t send a friend request! Here are the possible reasons:

If you send a friend request to someone and he deletes your request, you are no longer able to send the request, and it lasts for a year, then you can try your luck after a year for the second time.
You can’t send a friend request to someone who has blocked you, or you have blocked them.
There is a privacy setting that can be set by the user to avoid having a lot of friend requests. If you are not a friend of any of their friends, you won’t be able to send a friend request to them.

How many Facebook friends can I have on Facebook?

The total limit of the number of friends you can have on Facebook is 5000; whenever you reach 5000 friends on Facebook, it won’t allow you to add more friends. By the way As a Facebook user, you should know how Facebook suggest friends and how the friend suggestion algorithm works. Reading the “How does Facebook suggest friends?” article is a must for a Facebook user.

Be careful who you are sending a request to because if many people ignore your request, Facebook may know you as spam and it may block your account, and you will lose it temporarily or permanently. So try to send a friend request to people who you know or people that have the same interests as you. For example, if you are an adult, the type of post you share is completely different from posts that a teenager shares, and you won’t have a lot in common. Before sending the friend request, check the person’s profile and bio to prevent your account from being declined.

Tip: Limits aren’t just about numbers; Facebook considers your general actions such as the time of action, if the actions are identical, the type of action, number of actions per day, checking whether others report your actions or if it contains spam, etc.

What is the best time to post on Facebook?

Are you looking for a way to be seen by others? If yes, post at the best time to reach your goal.

Clearly, Wednesday is the best day to be active and post on Facebook, try it, and check the results. On the other hand, the weekend is known as the worst day to post on Facebook because people are not likely to spend a lot of time on social media on Saturday and Sunday.

Generally, you should try posting at different times and days to find out the best time to post on Facebook based on your friends and followers; don’t get surprised if the best time of posting on your Facebook account differs from the image above, it is all about the time that your followers are most active!

How many groups can I join on Facebook per day?

Also, there is a limit for the number of groups that you can join per day, which is about 25 to 30, but it depends on your account’s age. If you are new to Facebook, don’t take too many actions. Also, according to Facebook’s Help Center, you can join up to 6000 Facebook groups in total.

Why Facebook banned my account?

Facebook has strict rules, and if you break them, it would quickly ban your account. There are several factors that Facebook may know you as spam:

Number of the actions

Obviously, a real person can’t perform hundreds of actions in a short time, so make it slow and prevent your account from being looked like spam. Consider a short pause between any action you take on Facebook, if not, Facebook would recognize you as a bot, and it would ban your account.

Avoid doing actions that would get you reported

Some actions may seem like a threat to others, such as commenting on a competitor’s page, so reporting is the best solution for them. Also posting some contents like racism, threat, posts that promote the hatred of a particular group of people or an individual.

Moreover, if you speak offensive in your posts and use the abusive language, you are still in danger of being reported.

Don’t forget to verify your phone number or email address

You have definitely noticed the strict rules of Facebook and the way it would react if you break its rules and look like spam, so you need to obey its rules if you want your account to stand out. Then verify your Facebook account to prove it is really you who are using Facebook.

Facebook Bot

If you are using a Facebook bot, you should be careful about using it and set its speed on slow mode to avoid looking like spam. The more delay your account has to perform an action, the lower the chance of getting banned your account has. Also, don’t run multiple bots for the same Facebook account.

What should I do if I get banned on Facebook?

Unfortunately, if you take a lot of actions on Facebook and look like spam, Facebook will punish you, and it bans your account between 1 hour to 21 days! If you faced the Facebook ban, be patient, and wait to get back your account.

Keep all the tips mentioned above, in your mind to save your account and enjoy being a Facebook user.
