33. I’m used to a bulge in my pocket

Alex and me go through the weeds this time round. We Chat over the current CZcams love affair with Samsung, and why Alex has switched and David hasn’t!
Then, we go deep in to the business of CZcams. If you are setting up a channel, or interested in the metrics of running a channel, then this one is for you. We chat over the art of intros, CTR, retention, and the importance of timing too. Is there such a thing as a perfect length of video? What’s AdSense all about? Also, we chat about the future of podcasts on CZcams.
This one will take some unpacking - real gold!

Great chat about the nuances of running a channel and why it’s a learning process no matter what your skill set

It was nice to listen this one. Liked hear something from yours behind the scenes. Btw was listening sunday afternoon :)

This was really useful to listen to
I post the occasional video and never really understood CZcams's algorithm but this has made it easier to understand.
I listened to the verge where they talked about video podcasts and it made me think how I often prefer the video version especially if I'm cooking in the kitchen.
