I'm starting another YouTube channel, but this time I want to use AI voiceover instead of my voice. My question is: will it ever get monetized? Or will YouTube reject monetization?

I think it's one use case that makes sense and it's not too annoying as it's about tech and the goal is informative.

I want to check before putting tons of effort for months into it, so any suggestion or info here is welcome.

I'll obviously declare that there is AI in the video when I upload it

So like many writing here, since the US got into the Tiktok deal, growth is basically BELOW zero. I've been losing followers since then, and no it can't be that they are all bots. Maybe at the beginning, but this is still ongoing. I post, and for one subscriber gained, I lose 3. Then why should I spend so much time on it? It was a better alternative to YouTube, but now it's the opposite situation. Thinking about just quitting for good. Anyone else thinking about it?

I know most people tell you to avoid promotions, that they will sink your channel, etc.

YouTube lately has an additional option which seems to be (but of course, not sure) oriented towards engagement as well:

"Grow audience" and then select "optimize for a public that has more probability to subscribe or interact with your content"

Does it work?

What if you give it a try? Will you be able to survive and grow after that?

Context: Channel about tech

I asked for a german police certificate and they gave me a European Certificate of Conduct. Is it OK for applying to the visa 189? (Europäisches Führungszeugnis)

If not, what should I ask exactly then?

I asked without apostille

So far I have had brand deals without contracts. Now a company has reached out and wants me to sign one. Is there an affordable way to get a lawyer to review it? Are fiverr services reliable?

And since I'm here: Any red flags I should be careful of, and things to know in general?

They are asking for my name and surname, and that also makes me a bit nervous as I don't want to share my name and surname if I'm not sure who they are. After some digging on Linkedin it seems they are a startup based in the US providing AI services

This new VR accessory is pretty cool: https://youtu.be/BUUHfA3CJnE?is=VyKJ8ARE6FuttS90

More comfort, balanced weight and there is also a placeholder to add a power bank for charging the headset while playing

I'm a professional and I have a youtube channel since many years. I was thinking to create another one with my name and surname, and start creating content to reach potential clients (offering consulting services). I see many people doing this, and I'm wondering if this is really working or not.

One aspect that concerns me, apart from showing my identity, is that on my other channel I get scam emails with people pretending to be a brand. So I started wondering if that would be even worse if I put my email there in case someone would like a consultation.

Any insights from people who already tried this are welcome

Someone just reached out to me, and the email is from aejuiceclub.com , which is not exactly AEJuice.com (so, there is that).

At a quick look, AEjuice.com seems a legit business though and they do have an affiliate program.

The domain is not the same though so I suspect it is a scam.

I was thinking to drop an email to the official contact of AEJuice.com, and ask if that email is legit. Maybe also ask more info on that affiliate program too

Does anyone have any experience with the affiliate program of AEjuice.com? (The official one)

Is it worth to join?

I noticed that some big creators have a talent agency as contact email. Does anyone have any experience with Talent Agencies? What kind of advantages do you get, apart from getting more brand deals?
