You created a YouTube channel and uploaded your first videos. You created an Instagram account and started uploading photos. You created a website and are writing articles on it. Whatever the platform and content, it is time to get noticed.
My Story
I started my online presence last January. I made a few Android apps last year and now it was time to expand to other areas. The first thing I added was a YouTube channel. Here I could upload short promotion videos of my apps. When I was done with that I thought, why not extend my channel with other interest areas. So I added two more interest areas to my channel and put them all in playlists.
After that I wanted a website for my online business and started setting one up with Drupal. The website went online two weeks ago and still has a lot of work to do there.
I am now two months on my way and the biggest challenge I have is how to get noticed. My apps get some Organic Search installs but not much. My video are watched but again not much. And for my website it is a bit to early to say anything about that.
So how do we get noticed. I will tell you and keep you updated on the marketing channels I try.
Twitter
First of all I made a Twitter account. I thought that it would be a good place to advertise my website articles. I tried to promote my apps there too but that only gave me a few extra installs. Now I started putting my website articles on there an see how it goes.
Instagram
I just started posting photos from my Civilization Gameplay videos on there so it is a bit to early to say anything for that. In the next update we’ll see how that went.
Facebook
I promoted my apps on Facebook and it did give a few extra installs but not to much. Sometimes I post thumbnails of my videos on there but I think my Facebook account doesn’t have the right audience for that.
Concluding
For now those are my options. I will get into those on the next update and maybe tried some new marketing channels by then. I also have an article series about YouTube monetization and how things go there. You can find it here if you’re interested.
