Hello Friends,
In 2008 I was able to quit my retail job and become a Work At Home dad. In 2010 I was riding high making six figures using YouTube as my main marketing resource. In the blink of an eye in May of 2010 I was banned from YouTube and the people responsible flagged my videos and YouTube closed my channel! I was devastated because we all thought it was only going to grow and get better.
I have learned a hard lesson since 2010 and I started to blog like crazy. It is a marketing technique that I am very fond of. I now have around five to seven working blogs and the income and traffic are coming back! This Internet has taught me How To adapt and re-invent myself. I just hope it lasts longer than my YouTube run!

Wow, maybe I should work less on making YouTube videos and focus more on article marketing. This is scary to think that you made all that money and they decided to delete all your videos.
No one is guaranteed in anything in life. Only upwards for you from here.
You will do well.

Thank you! I was floored when they hit me. I was pulling in $300-$600 a day like clockwork then BAM%! Broke with No Income! A great lesson. Use more than one marketing technique...Brad

wow!! that is a wakeup call! I haven't used Youtube much but it makes me want to diversify my efforts even more than I do already. It's kinda scary in a way but then what isn't a bit scary sometimes in the entrepreneur world, eh?

When I was at my peak I had over 750 videos on three channels. They accused me of Spamming. Go figure. LOL LOL Heck, I did not have 1000. Anyway, it was a good lesson and has forced me to become an expert blogger (tongue in cheek)! Brad
