Why is everything so hard these days?
It's like swimming through treacle trying to get anything done.
Everyone talks in weird letters and short acronyms and I just can't keep up.
I am trying so damn hard to earn a few bob with my blogs and Youtube channels and feel like throwing in the towel.
I decided to check my blogs out as I hadn't used them in a while and there is money I have earned but not reached the £66 threshold to have it released and that will never happen unless I keep posting till I am 90.
Then I wanted to ad adsense to two other blogs I have and they say I can't until I fix something. So I click on the highlighted text to see what I need to do and it's all gobbledegook. Why they hell can they not write in plain english (or whatever language you speak) you need to do x, y and z. Nope they leave you in limbo to spend weeks going round in circles clicking links non of which help.
Then I thought I would put in a bit of effort and do a video a day in December on my YT channel and surely that would improve the subs and views NOPE.
The other channel I took over in March made it to 1000 subs in December and I was thrilled and had found something I could do quite easily and upload quickly as I am reacting to peoples videos and need them up as soon as otherwise people lose interest.
I had it down pat. I could usually get it all done in a day, then monetization came into play. Now I can grade my own videos but YT keep overriding what I put. Then I have to wait for a manual review and by that time it's too late.
THEN just as I was ok with what I was allowed to do they moved the goal posts and give us no clue of why they have now decided our content can't be monetised!!
Plus I narrated two books for audible and so far haven't earned one penny.
I am chronically sick and bedroom bound, I thought I had finally found something I could do to perhaps get us out of this house but NO.
How many times can you kick a person before they just lie down and stop trying?
