Growing a YouTube channel can be tough and complex.

Here’s the framework I've used to reach almost 4 million subscribers:

1️⃣ Get Going
2️⃣ Get Good
3️⃣ Get Smart

1. Get Going

The biggest resistance to success is just getting started.

You're probably using one of these 3 things as an excuse to not start:

• You’re worried what people will say
• You don't have the equipment
• You’re not sure what video to make first
All you have to do is turn your thinking around.

• No one actually cares, they'll probably think it’s cool
• You literally need a phone camera to start
• You can make videos about anything, and at the start, you should
Just start by making one video.

Once you've made one video, try to make one video a week.

Be okay with publishing one video at a time and don’t worry about the bigger picture or the quality until later on.
2. Get Good

The more we create YouTube videos, the better they will be.

My answer to the content quality vs. quantity debate is that quantity leads to quality.

It’s important to know what stage you’re in with your channel, so you can direct time and energy to what’s needed.
3. Get Smart

Until you're posting regular videos, don’t worry about niching down your channel.

You'll get a better return if you focus more on making good videos and less time on planning the future of your channel. Use great sites like @fiverr to find freelance support.

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
