[00:00] you can get started and become successful with  YouTube and affiliate marketing by helping other   people on autopilot, even when you're asleep  or on vacation. Let me show you what we will  

[00:13] cover in this tutorial. First, we're going to  talk about mindset, how you can turn yourself   into someone who's actually believing that you can  become successful with affiliate marketing. Then   we'll do market research, find your niche, choose  a business name, grab a free.com domain name, and  

[00:27] then I will give you a website for free so you can  focus on creating content. Then you will learn how   to find the best affiliate products and then you  will learn step by step how to create high quality   videos, even if you only have a phone or a laptop,  but I'll also show you how you can use equipment  

[00:42] to enhance the quality of your videos. Then I'll  show you exactly how I find a product to promote,   how to prepare myself, then how to make a video,  edit video, export video, put it on YouTube,   then how to create shorts and reels, put them  on YouTube and other social media accounts. Then  

[00:57] I'll show you how you can turn that content into  a blog post using Chat GPT. And I know this can be   overwhelming. So true to the tutorial, I will show  you step by step why you can do this. And I will   do my best to motivate you because it's really  important what's going on over here. When you want  

[01:11] why I want to help you to overcome those struggles  and become successful with this. We'll also talk   about and how we can make money with Google  AdSense. And when you have done everything,  

[01:27] we go all in and you're persevering, you can  become really successful with this. With the   steps I teach you in this video, I was able to  generate seven figures in revenue in the last  

[01:39] years. This is one of the products I promote  and I was able to make $250,000 in the last 10   years and this month almost $4,000. If I take  a look at my PayPal account, the last 90 days,  

[01:51] $90,000 came in. Besides affiliate marketing  revenue, there's also ad revenue from Google   AdSense and in my lifetime, I was able to make  more than $400,000. And since I'm convinced that  

[02:03] affiliate marketing is still super relevant and  super lucrative these days, I decided to start   over from scratch and share every single step  I take in this journey. So you can also learn   how to get started and become successful with  affiliate marketing. So let me tell you how my  

[02:17] affiliate marketing journey started 18 years ago.  I made my first sale with affiliate marketing in   2007. The feeling was amazing. I was like, I want  to do this for a living. I tried a lot of things   in the years after that. I made a lot of mistakes,  lost a lot of money and then in 2015, I decided to  

[02:33] take a different approach to affiliate marketing.  I was always focused on how to make money with   affiliate marketing but in 2015, I decided to  start focusing on helping other people. And that   changed everything. And that's what I'm about to  do in this tutorial. I want to give you as much  

[02:47] as possible so you can get started with affiliate  marketing and learn how to become successful with   it. I have no upsell, I have no thousand dollar  course that I will pitch to you halfway the   course. No, everything I share is for free and by  doing so I get more likes, I get more subscribers,  

[03:01] I get more views, my other videos will be watched  more and that way I can generate more revenue. So   it's a win-win situation. I give everything  away for free and at the same time I know it   will help me to grow my YouTube channel and make  more money. And since I'm being honest with you,  

[03:14] I also want to tell you that affiliate  marketing is hard work. It's not like,   oh I follow Ferdy's tutorial and try a few things  and I will probably make a lot of money. No,   it's hard work. You need to persevere. You need to  be dedicated. You need to decide for yourself that  

[03:29] ago when I started out with this new adventure.  But when you persevere, the sky is the limit. With   a normal job, you get paid every month and every  year, your income will probably increase a little  

[03:42] bit. But with affiliate marketing, you put a lot  of effort in the beginning and you often don't see   the results in the beginning. But when you start  to receive results, those can be exponential.   my earlier tutorials. They're now my friends. They  make a lot of money with it was even someone that  

[04:02] said to me Ferdy, I have my first thousand dollar  in one day revenue. I was like wow, it's working   for me, it's working for him but I know he was  persevering, he was putting a lot of effort in   it. But let's not carry it away with a thousand  dollar per day. My goal for you is to make your  

[04:19] first sale with affiliate marketing. That's it  because that's the hardest sale. If you can get   your first sale, the second sale is easier, the  third sale is even easier and then the exponential   growth can come. So that will be my focus for you  or I hope that will be your focus in this journey,  

[04:35] your first sale. If you have a first sale,  celebrate it man because when you have reached   that from that point on, you need to continue what  you're doing and then it can become more and more   fun. As long as you persevere, perseverance is  the name of the game. I've persevered now for 10  

[04:52] years and I'm so thankful. If I take a look at my  life, I'm married, we have two kids, my wife can   be a stay at home mom, she wants to spend time  with the kids. at home, so I can go downstairs   to my children, to my wife. We can go on vacation  where we want, it doesn't matter if it's expensive  

[05:06] or cheap. We don't have to take a look at the  prices when we do groceries and we can do charity   and make a difference in someone else's life. It's  super cool that affiliate marketing played a big   part in this and I'm super thankful for that and  that's why I think that everybody deserves the  

[05:20] chance to make money with affiliate marketing.  And yes, as I said before, I will say it again,   it's hard work, but it's worth the effort. The  rewards are higher than what you put in. So   but it's up to you to take action. You can watch  this video five times, feel good and think, wow,  

[05:39] this is such a cool way to make money. But if you  don't take action, nothing will happen. I have my   idea for affiliate marketing, what I'm doing  right now, already since 2012. I was like hey   if I'm going to do this, wow that will work. But  I have a lot of negative thoughts like English is  

[05:55] not my main language, I don't like to be on the  camera, other people are better and then three   years later, I decided to do it. Why? Because I  was getting married, we're saving money for the   wedding, and that's the moment I said, okay, I  need to make more money. I need to do something.  

[06:10] So the idea I already had for three years, that's  when I decided to put it into practice. I stopped   thinking about all the limitations. I was like,  I'm so happy that 10 years ago, I decided to go  

[06:25] all in with affiliate marketing. And I wish  you the same, that you will find the place,   the motivation to go all in, to persevere and  then hopefully one day you can say to me Ferdy,   I made it. I'm so happy. So I hope you'll  be that person in a few years. So how about  

[06:40] we start answering the most important question,  what is affiliate marketing? Affiliate marketing   is promoting someone else's product or service in  exchange for a commission. Let me say that again,  

[06:53] affiliate marketing is promoting someone else's  product or service in exchange for a commission.   Let me give you an example. When I got my driver's  license, my driver lessons instructor told me,   Ferdy, if you make sure that someone else is  going to take driving lessons at my driving  

[07:08] lesson school, you get a $50 commission. Why? He  was probably having not too much new clients and   he wanted to have more clients, so he started  to give commissions for people that brought him   new clients. So what I did, I went to a birthday  party, I saw Jennifer, I said, Jennifer, I just  

[07:21] got my driver's license and a great driving lesson  instructor. How cool would it be if you also would   get driving lessons and get your driver's license?  So she said, okay, let's do it. She took lessons   over there and I got my commission and that is  affiliate marketing. Let me give you another  

[07:37] example. If I go to amazon.com, I really like  the Canon R6 Mark II. That's the camera I use to   record my videos. And what I see over here, this  camera cost $2,299. And quite a few times people  

[07:52] say Ferdy, what camera do you use? The quality  is so amazing. And then I can refer them to this   link. But what I also can do, I can go to Google,  search for Amazon affiliate. And then over here,  

[08:04] there's an Amazon associates affiliate program.  So if I click on it, what I see, earn up to 10%   commission for everything people buy through your  unique affiliate link. So what happens? I can sign  

[08:19] affiliate link. So I can share this here. And  when I sign up for every product at Amazon, I can   get a unique affiliate link. So I can share this  link and now when people go to this page with my   affiliate link, Amazon knows that the people that  buy this product are referred by me. So now when  

[08:34] people say, Hey, your video quality is amazing.  What kind of camera do you use? And I give them   that link and they buy this product, I get 10%  commission, which is $229. So what happens? People  

[08:46] want to buy products. Every day, people want  to buy products. I always say every day, people   become 18, people want to get a driver's license,  people want to go on vacation for the first time,   book a hotel for the first time, buy products on  the internet for the first time, and Amazon is  

[08:58] selling products. So there's the buyer and there's  the seller. But as an affiliate, you can promote   products from Amazon. And when people buy those  products through you, you get a commission. So   Amazon is happy because they sell products. The  affiliate is happy because they get a commission  

[09:12] and that buyer's happy because they bought a  product. It's a win, win, win situation. So as I   said, every day, there are tons of people who want  to buy buy things, laptops, software, courses,   games, credit cards, vacations, renting places  through booking.com or Airbnb. People are going  

[09:30] to buy that, but how cool would it be if they're  going to buy it through you as an affiliate?   So how do you get in between the buyer and the  seller? So you get all those commissions. That's   exactly what I'm going to show you step by step in  this tutorial. So let me show you another example.  

[09:45] If you search for the best WordPress themes, so  I skip all the sponsored stuff, I click on it.   The 10 fastest WordPress themes free and paid.  So there's a table of contents, there's a blog  

[10:00] post over here, lightweight themes, themes with  their own page builder. So if I click on this one,   for instance, Divi, I scroll down, I see the title  Divi. Divi is a powerful visual page builder,   a small text, an image, performance results for  the Divi page builder. And if I click over here,  

[10:18] look at this. What do I see? I see the affiliate  link. So I know that when I buy this, that person   from this website, WP Rocket makes money. So  I scroll down and what I see, I search for  

[10:32] affiliate program. I can also, if I don't find it,  search for affiliate. I click on it. Look at this.   This is crazy. We offer 50% commissions on new  purchase and all subscription renewal payments.  

[10:44] So every year, as long as people pay their divi  subscription and they are referred by me, I make   money and I am an affiliate of this program.  So if I click on affiliate login, look at this   over the years, I have been making 234, almost  $235,000 with this particular product. How by  

[11:04] offering value around this product. Not spamming  my affiliate links, buy this, buy this to people   who don't need it. No, offering value around  this product in so many ways and I will show you  

[11:16] step by step how you can also do that and become  successful with affiliate marketing. Why affiliate   marketing? Why not dropshipping or having your  own e-commerce website or selling courses? Let me   give you eight reasons. The first one, you don't  have to own your own product. You don't have to  

[11:31] create your own product. I don't have to create  my own iPad. I can just promote this one. If I   would create something like this, I need to have a  team, I need to invest a lot of money, I can just  

[11:44] promote products from other people. So I don't  have to create my own course, my own software,   my own product, I can just promote other people's  products which will save me a lot of time. I also   don't have to buy five iPads and try to resell  them and make a profit. No, I'm promoting other  

[12:00] people's products so I can promote an iPad through  Amazon and then I don't have to pay for it myself.   I don't have to have it in stock. I have no  stock. So I can buy five iPads, try to resell   them. If this is not working, I have no stock. So  no risk. If I don't sell the products I promote,  

[12:15] I still don't have any stock. Three, I don't need  to have any starting capital. The only thing we   need is a website. We get a free domain name, then  we need to have space on the internet to store our   website that is called web hosting, that's around  $4 per month. And even if you don't like it,  

[12:29] you can get your money back within 30 days.  Besides that, there's no starting capital. When   I did dropshipping, I had to pay $100 per month to  be able to sell products from a really big store   in the United States and then when people bought  it through my website, it went automatically to  

[12:44] that front door, but I had to pay $100 per month  only to be able to sell their products. That's   a lot of money if you're getting started. With  affiliate marketing, that's not the case. You can   work from any place in the world. A few friends of  mine who are also active with affiliate marketing,  

[12:59] they live in Dubai, they live in Bali, they rent  a place there, they have their laptop and they   can work from any place in the world. I have my  family over here, I have my friends over here,   I want to stay over here in the Netherlands but  you can work from any place in the world. If I  

[13:11] want to, I can go on vacation to a beautiful place  and work from there. That's what I really like,   I can work remotely. Another one, the fifth one,  everything runs on autopilot. If I decide to turn   everything off right now, go on vacation for  two weeks or just spend time with my family or  

[13:26] do both, nice combination, everything still goes  on. I even make more money during my vacation than   I spent because everything runs on autopilot.  Even if I'm asleep, even if I'm on vacation,   people still watch my tutorials, read my blog  posts, see my social media, everything runs on  

[13:42] autopilot. Let's go to the sixth one. The growth  can be exponential. I'll show you in a minute how   it went with me. I had the first sale and a month  later I had 10 sales. And what also is really nice  

[13:55] about exponential growth, in the beginning you  need to apply to become an affiliate for products,   but later on when you start to become successful,  people reach out to you and give you special   affiliate commissions or give you a lot of money.  A few months ago, a company came to me and said,  

[14:11] you know what, I want to offer you $45,000  to make four videos about a certain tool.   $45,000! I really did not like the tool, so  I declined friendly, but those are some crazy  

[14:23] numbers. So the longer you do this, the more  lucrative it can become. And that's part of   exponential growth. The seventh one, you can  do this anonymously. Anonymously, hard word to   say. People don't even have to know that you are  making those videos or making those blog posts or  

[14:40] social media posts. And even with AI, you can just  choose your voice. People don't even have to know   that you're behind this. So that's also really  nice. Some people prefer that to not be known as  

[14:52] the person that is really active on YouTube and  making a lot of money with what they are doing.   So you can do this without people even knowing  that you're doing this. And then the latest one,   one of my favorites, you are not a help desk.  Again, I can close my laptop, go away for two  

[15:09] weeks and I have no obligation to anyone in my  company. Why? I'm only providing free tutorials,   sharing them with people, sharing my blog post,  sharing my knowledge through various platforms   and when people have questions, of course they  can ask them and I can do my best to answer them,  

[15:25] but I have no obligation. What I can do if I  promote, let's say the Divi theme for instance,   a WordPress theme and people have a question about  it or get stuck, I can say, hey you can go to the   support of that theme. So I have no obligation and  that's what I really, really, really like about  

[15:41] affiliate marketing. I saw the course before a  few years ago, a WordPress course and when people   pay money for it, I was also a help desk. So I  went live to answer questions and stuff and man,  

[15:53] that sometimes took a lot of time and I was happy  to do it because it's part of the deal when people   buy a course. But if I promote someone else's  WordPress course, I still make money with it,   but I'm not their support. So that's what I really  like and all those other things about affiliate  

[16:10] marketing. That's why I'm so excited about this.  So let me tell you how it got started for me and I   hope it will inspire you. It started 13 years ago  in 2012. I had the idea to create a website with a   YouTube channel teaching people how to work with  WordPress related tools like plugins, WordPress  

[16:27] people did not have to go through blog posts and  images to find out or figure out how things work,   but just watch my video and then I could learn  through videos how those tools worked. But I had  

[16:39] so many reasons why it should not work. English is  not my main language. It was hard for me to sit in   front of a camera. I had so many reasons why not  to do it. But then in 2015, I was engaged with my   wife and we need to save money for our wedding.  Around the same time, someone asked me if I could  

[16:54] do a live stream where I would teach people live  through a webinar how to make a website. And she   said, in order to know if you can really do this,  please make a recording on how to make a website   from A till Z, from start to finish and send it to  me so I can see if you're really capable of doing  

[17:11] this. So now it was a paid job. So what I did, I  press record on my computer screen, I created a   website using WordPress and after two hours,  I pressed stop and I had a two hour tutorial   where I show people how to make a website. I sent  it to her and from that moment on, I knew I can  

[17:28] do this. No more excuses, I can do this. At the  same time, I found out about the Enfold theme,   a premium WordPress theme for $60 that can help  you to create a professional looking website even  

[17:40] if you don't have a lot of experience with making  websites. And since I used that theme, I was like,   making a website has never been easier. Wow, this  is crazy. So what I did, I believed I could make   the tutorial. I found an amazing handful theme.  So I decided to use that theme in my tutorial. The  

[17:59] theme costs $60 and I became an affiliate of the  theme. So this is what happened exactly 10 years   ago. I started recording that tutorial and after  a day of exporting, because it took a long time   to export it because it was a four hour recording,  one take, I found out that the audio filled. I had  

[18:15] so much momentum. I was like, I need to, I need  to do this. I need to make this work. So I did a   recording again the night after that and again the  audio failed but this time I had a backup audio so   I could start editing and exporting my video. So  I did in a few days I exported my video and then  

[18:32] June the 2nd 2015, I went to my parents because  my internet was not fast enough with the video,   the tutorial on my computer, I uploaded  it over there and June the 3rd 2015,  

[18:44] I uploaded my first video to YouTube. I had so  much determination that I even wrote a blog post,   it was the 22nd of May 2015 saying, so through  tutorials, videos and blog posts, I want to share  

[18:57] my knowledge with the whole world and I will work  on it weekly until it becomes a success. I had so   much problems and trouble with making websites  over the last 10 years that I was like, okay,   with this Enfold theme and with the right web  hosting and with what I've learned, it's time  

[19:13] for me to share with others how they can make a  website without going through all the hardships I   went through as a web designer. So I was focused  on helping people. So I uploaded my tutorial,  

[19:26] June the 3rd, if I go to videos on my YouTube  channel and I go to the oldest one, this video,   three hours and blog posts, how to create a nice  header, how to create a transparent header, how to  

[19:52] use images, how to have nice animations. So if I  click over here, June the 3rd, 2015, 10 years ago,   look at this. Over here I have an affiliate link.  Also in my tutorial I said go to ferdy.com or  

[20:05] wordpressking at that time .com forward slash  enfold and when you click on it, you can get   this theme added to the cart for $59. And when  people would buy this through my affiliate link,  

[20:17] I would get 30% which is around $20. So let's  take a look over here. If I go to the analytics,   look at this in July, a month later, 27 views, 22  views, around 20 views per day. Then look at this,  

[20:31] I went to 300 views per day. This is I think when  I did some advertising and then 730 views per day,   500, 600. So it went from 20 to 600 and that's  also what you see in my earnings. The first month,  

[20:48] I made one sale, $21. But the month after  that, also one sale. But then look at this,   the third month, $200. The month after that, 340,  440, 460, almost $600 in one month. So you see in  

[21:06] total, I had $2,100 in my first six months  by promoting this only using this one video.   I remember after two months, I was getting kebab  in Maslajus where I live and I took a look at my  

[21:20] phone, I refreshed it and it was like two sales,  $40 in one day. I was like, wow, this can really   work. I said to my fiance, we can use this money  for our wedding. The beautiful thing is that at  

[21:32] our honeymoon in Cape Town, while I was looking  out of the window, seeing the Table Mountain,   $1,000 was deposited on our bank account, money  we made through my YouTube channel and I was like  

[21:45] wow, this is really working. I want to do this for  a living. So what I did after that, I made no more   videos and I just started living from it. No, of  course not. I started making more videos. Instead  

[21:59] of counting money, I kept on going, kept on making  more tutorials, see if I could improve myself,   have better audio, better video, better equipment  and now 10 years later, I can do this for a   living, we can make a lot of money with it, be a  blessing to a lot of people and have the lifestyle  

[22:14] we like to have and it was all because I got  the idea and I acted upon it. So I will give   you the ideas in this tutorial and it's up to you  to act upon it. I hope this was inspiring for you.  

[22:27] Now let's get started. Let's talk about you, how  you can make this work for yourself. Ladies and  

[22:39] marketing is to make a decision. We need to decide  we're going all in. We're going to do this no   matter what happens. Most people quit affiliate  marketing within a few weeks. You know why? They  

[22:54] make no sales and then they decide to give up.  I have been there. In 2007, I had my first sale   and I was hooked from that moment on. I was like,  I want to make money with affiliate marketing. I   started trying a lot of things, I even lost a lot  of money with advertising and then I decided to  

[23:08] give up. I was like, I don't know how this works.  I already told you before the story, but in 2015,   I was getting married, we were engaged and we  needed money for the wedding. I was making not   a lot of money, we were saving a little bit, but  I was like, something needs to happen. And that's  

[23:26] when I made a decision. I am going to do this no  matter what happens. I had so much momentum. I   was like, now it's going to happen. I made that  webinar, that recording and from that moment,  

[23:38] I believed I can do this. So nothing could stop  me. That's how I felt. I had so much momentum,   like okay, this is going to happen. Even if I  don't see the results right away, I will continue   to do this until it becomes a success. So that's  when I created my first video. It failed with the  

[23:56] audio, but I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no,  I'm unstoppable. So I made the recording again.   I added the video like crazy. I think in two days,  I finished the whole video. I went to my parents,   I uploaded the video and then I continued to  make more tutorials and then after two months,  

[24:12] I saw sales and after three months, I saw so  much more sales. So I decided to go all in and   that's what you need to do. If you want to become  successful with affiliate marketing, the first   step is to decide that you're going all in and  then you need to pick up the decision with action.  

[24:30] The great thing about decisions, those can be made  at this moment. At this moment, you can decide I'm   going all in and when you do what you need to do,  you need to follow all the steps in this tutorial,  

[24:42] you need to take action. And I can imagine that  when you make a decision that in the beginning   you're very motivated, but it can be, there's  a very big chance that in the first few weeks,   you will make no sale. And that's when people  start to doubt and they think, I want to give up.  

[24:56] So let me give you a few resources that can help  you to not only believe that you can do this,   but to improve yourself as a person, to be  happy, to get more excited about life because   I think of course things can happen to us in  life but we are also for a big part in charge  

[25:13] on how we respond to things in life and how we  go through life. So there are three resources   that really helped me to become successful and  not only with affiliate marketing but also in   my life with my self-confidence, with how I look  at life. I think life is something beautiful and  

[25:29] even though hard things happen, I think we can  have a wonderful time on this earth and there   are three resources that help me to believe like  that and to make something beautiful out of this   life and to be successful with my business. So  let me show you those three resources. You can go  

[25:44] to ferdy.com forward slash Jim Rohn, motivational  speaker, and I listened to a teaching from him   from 1980, already 45 years old. Jim Rohn is not  among us anymore, but his teachings are. So if  

[26:01] you scroll down this video and the title is Jim  Rohn, the major key to a better future is you. And   the great thing, the first minute alone, I love  it. It's so inspirational, new word. And yeah,  

[26:20] just listen to it. I cannot show it to you over  here because then I can get a problem with YouTube   and with copyrights but what I can do, you can go  to ferdy.com forward slash Jim Rome and then you   can watch the video over here. There he is. There  is my man Jim Rome. The second resource is below  

[26:37] that. Brian Tracy's secrets to a self-made  millionaire by Brian Tracy. 45-46 minutes,   I listened to it over and over again and this is  more practical. It's really about setting goals  

[26:52] and then sticking to it and taking action every  single day. That's what I'm also applying right   now in my tutorial. I want to do something on  this tutorial every single day. I just moved,  

[27:04] there are a lot of things going on in my life, but  I decided, you know what, no matter what happens,   every day I want to work on this tutorial.  And those are the things you also learn in   those teachings. How to become motivated and how  to start to take action. The name of the game,  

[27:18] there are so many names of the game, but one  of the names of the game is taking action,   being perseverant. Man, those English words,  to persevere, have perseverance. Look at this,  

[27:31] my English is not perfect but I'm still taking  action, doing my best and somehow left, right,   it comes back to me and I seem to help other  people even though my English is not perfect. If  

[27:43] I would have waited until my English was perfect,  I would not start my YouTube channel yet. So just   go with what you have, give it your best. And  then the third, it's not over here, but it's a   book. The third resource is called Think and Grow.  Rich, an all-time classic. I think I've read it 15  

[28:02] times now. Oh man, there are so many gold nuggets  in that book. So how can you apply this in your   life? When I do the laundry, just kidding, I don't  do the laundry but I do the kitchen and sometimes  

[28:15] I drive, sometimes I go for a walk, sometimes  I just like to listen to something when I'm in   the bathtub or somewhere else cleaning my office.  And what I do, I listen to Jim Rohn, to this one  

[28:29] over and over again. I can listen to this one from  Brian Tracy and then I can read the book Think and   Grow Rich on the couch or in the sun on vacation  or I can listen to an audiobook of Think and Grow  

[28:41] Rich. So to sum this up, the first step, make  a decision. You can do it right now. If you're   ready, like I'm going all in, Ferdy, I'm going all  in. If you do so, please leave a comment saying,   hey, I'm going all in and then back it up with  action. The first action, watch this tutorial and  

[29:00] put into practice what you learn. And if you want  to develop yourself as a person person so you'll   be more motivated to make this work and believe  more that you can really become successful with   affiliate marketing, then listen to Jim Rohn,  Brian Tracy and if you want to think and grow  

[29:15] rich. If I could choose only one resource, it will  be this one from Jim Rohn. If I could choose two   resources, Jim Rohn and Brian Tracy, and if you  could have three resources, then first Jim Rohn,  

[29:28] second one Brian Tracy and the third one Think and  Grow Rich in book form or audio book. Yes. So are   you ready to make a decision to make this work? So  even though you get setbacks or not everything is  

[29:42] working out as you want it to be, you know I made  a decision and I'm gonna be successful with this.   If that's the case, congratulations, your life can  completely transform and I'm so happy for you. So,  

[29:56] since you've done that, let's continue with the  second step. Okay, let's talk about step two,   finding your niche and your name. What is a  niche? Well, we can go to chat.jpt, what is a  

[30:14] niche? By the way, this part, I did not prepare  this. Normally I prepare in all my tutorials,   I practice so I can give you the best result. But  what I want to do, I want to take you with me on   my journey in finding a niche and then starting  all over with affiliate marketing. So instead of  

[30:29] preparing everything, knowing what to say, knowing  what to search for, I just want to be normal,   like really authentic and take you with me on  the journey. So I just press record, I'm going  

[30:41] to talk and I hope what I say is amazing.  I think it is. So what is a niche? A niche   is a specialized segment of a market or area of  interest that focus on a specific group of people,   product or needs. Well, what is that? I don't  understand it. So let me give you an example. A  

[30:57] niche can be a product that you want to promote or  a group of product. So a niche can be photography   and if you have photography as a niche, your whole  website or your social media, your YouTube channel  

[31:10] could all be about photography related things.  So you could make a review of a photo camera,   you can make a review of a lens, you could  compare lenses with each other, you could  

[31:23] promote Photoshop tutorials or you could create  Photoshop tutorials, how to edit photos. You can   refer to Photoshop courses, you can refer to photo  editing software. But what you should not do is  

[31:38] having a link to a course on how to train your  dog. That's outside of that niche. So a niche   is a specific group within the whole marketplace  and when you focus on one niche there's a bigger   chance that you'll become successful. If you  have a website where you sell photo cameras,  

[31:55] give dog trainings and you sell stuff that can  make you strong, supplements, then you're all   over the place. That's not working. So you need to  choose a niche, a product or a group of products  

[32:10] that you can promote. So let's go to chat GPT.  Can you give me 20 examples of affiliate marketing   niches and the products you could promote with  those niches. Bring it on! Absolutely. Wow,  

[32:33] thank you. Fitness. So fitness is a niche. There  are also sub-niches, fitness for women. So you   narrow down your niche with 50% since 50% of  the people are women. The home office setup.  

[32:48] So you can have a YouTube channel or a website  about how to set up a home studio. If you have   a small space, which camera should you use? Which  lens could you use? How to make videos using your   phone? Which audio is the best tool? Should you  have audio in front of your face, in front of your  

[33:02] mouth or should you have it outside of the frame?  Which computer to edit your videos? Which editing   software? Oh, I really like this niche. Maybe I  should do this one, home office setup, standing  

[33:14] desk. It's not even about making videos. It's  about desks, chairs. I just got carried away a   bit but that would also be cool. How to make your  own studio and then you can become an affiliate of  

[33:27] the cameras, of the lenses, of the tools. You can  have courses that you refer to, a lot you can do.   The vegan lifestyle. So you can talk about vegan  supplements, cookbooks, meal plans, vegan and  

[33:42] skincare. So before we dive deeper into this list,  let me give you three things you need to keep in   mind when you are considering to promote products  or promote a certain niche. The first one,  

[33:54] only promote products that you like. If you don't  like the product, don't promote it. Trust me on   this one. I tried to promote things just to make  money, you know 2008, 2009, just to make money.  

[34:07] I didn't care what kind of program it was, I just  want to make money. I lost a lot of money with it   and my whole idea was to make money instead of  helping people and it's harder to help people if  

[34:19] you don't like the product. So the first advice,  only promote products that you really like. The   second one, only promote products that are really  helping other people. A few years ago, I started  

[34:32] promoting a tool. They offered me money to make  a video about the tool and then I said, okay,   I will make a tutorial about it. And while I was  making the tutorial, I found a lot of errors with   that tool and I was like, come on, I cannot share  this with my audience. This is not helping people,  

[34:47] if people buy this, it will make them frustrated.  My name is on the list, how do you say it? My name   is, I am promoting this so I'm standing behind  this product so my name, my integrity is on the,  

[35:00] how do you say it? On the line, not on the list,  on the line. So I sent back the money and I said,   sorry, I can't make a tutorial about this. And  I've learned from that normally when people offer   me money, I always check, do I really like the  product? If I really like the product and they  

[35:13] offer me money, I'll take it. But I will never  let money be a reason for me to promote things,   especially since my name, my integrity is on the  line. So first, only promote products you like and  

[35:25] only promote products that help other people. And  then the third advice, before you start to create   content about a product, if you find products  that you like and that are helping people,   make sure you get to know the product really  well. If you promote a camera, make sure you  

[35:40] know what everything is, how it works. So when  you help people, when they ask questions, you   can really help them, answer them and really offer  value in that way. So first, make sure that you  

[35:52] like the products you promote. If you don't like  it, don't promote it. Make sure that the product   you promote is helping other people. If that's  not the case, don't promote it. The third one,   if you promote something, make sure you get to  know the thing you're promoting. Okay, since we  

[36:05] got that out of the way, let's talk about another  really important subject. Should you promote   physical products like a camera, like a computer,  like a phone, like a lamp, like a microphone,   like a cup or should you promote digital products?  Well, let me show you the difference. If I search  

[36:22] for the Canon R6, let's go to the store, the  Canon R6, it says $2,500. Keep in mind that   you get around 10% for this. So when people buy  this, you get $250. That's an amazing amount,  

[36:40] but people have to spend two and a half thousand  dollars for you to get $250. If you would go for   a digital product, let's go forever webinar,  affiliate. If I would go forever webinar for  

[36:56] instance, that's a digital tool. I click on  plans and pricing, look at this. If people   will go for this one per year, $500, what you get  as an ever webinar affiliate, it says over here,  

[37:14] join the webinar jam or ever webinar affiliate  program and get 40% recurring. So that means   every year, as long as people pay through your  unique affiliate link, you get 499 times 0.40,  

[37:31] which is 40%. You get $200, almost as much as the  camera, but this time people only spent $500 and   every single year when people pay for this, you  get that same amount. Here you get it only once.  

[37:48] Why do you get less commissions with physical  products? Because they need to be assembled,   they need to be shipped, there's so much more cost  involved that there is less room for a commission.   So I prefer personally to promote digital products  like EverWebinar. Let me show you in 2019,  

[38:06] maybe YouTube ever webinar 30 tutorial. It's not  even written right. Ever webinar. Look at this   six years ago, six years ago, a 38 minute video.  I made one video about this. Affiliate link over  

[38:27] here. Look at this, with this one video, I made a  total of almost 24,000 euros with this one video,   38 minutes. It took me two days to create. Let  me see if there's, yeah, look at this. As you  

[38:43] see February 2025, after six years, it starts to  decrease, but still after six years, still making   $180. But if you take a look over here, there were  months that I made $2,000. Look at this, May 2020,  

[38:57] 2,000 euros. The month after that, a thousand.  Month after that, 1600. So that's the power of   digital products with affiliate marketing and with  recurring commissions. There are commissions you  

[39:09] get only once and there are commissions that are  recurring. So as long as the person that buys a   tool through your unique affiliate link stays a  member, even if they stay a member for 10 years,  

[39:21] every single year you get a commission of  what they pay. Do you understand why I get   so excited about affiliate marketing? I should  make a new tutorial about this. So I prefer to   promote digital products, but if you really  like certain physical products by all means,  

[39:36] go ahead. So I wanted to share that with you.  So let's go back to chat GPT, give me 20 niches   for affiliate marketing and the products you can  promote with it. Only digital products, don't you  

[39:55] like chat GPT? I do. Okay. Digital products,  online courses and e-learning, promote Udemy,   Coursera, Skillshare, Teachable. So what you can  do, anything you want to learn. So for instance,  

[40:11] YouTube, how to cut someone out of a picture in  Photoshop. Just a random search. 2 million views,  

[40:24] 2 million video. So you can make this, you  can learn this in one day and you can make a   video in one day. And what you can do now in the  description, hey, do you want to learn more about   Photoshop? Here is a link to a Photoshop course  on Udemy so you can become a Udemy affiliate.  

[40:39] I don't know what the commissions are but when  people buy that course on Udemy, you make money.   I had a video a few years ago, I think I took  it offline, so I think it's not here anymore,   but it was how to create a Facebook page and it  went viral. I think in a few years, I got 500,  

[40:54] 600,000 views. So I placed a link in the  description about a Facebook course on Udemy and   almost every day, I got $5, $10, $5. By one video  that went viral and keep in mind in that video,  

[41:08] I gave my everything. I really went dive deep,  creating high quality recordings with good audio,   we're going to talk about that and I went the  extra mile like the things that other people don't   do in the tutorials because it's too hard, I did  it and the video took off, I made a lot of sales  

[41:24] by promoting Facebook itself, it's an affiliate  program. But I want to help people that had a   business and a website to create a Facebook page,  so they could place it on their website. So that's   why I made a tutorial, link in the description and  every day five or ten dollars. So it was only the  

[41:39] first one. You can promote anything, so let's do  another one. Blender tutorials. Blender is a free   3d tool. A year ago, 8 million views on how to  create something like this. Oh, here's even a full  

[41:54] course course, just like this tutorial. Actually,  you can also place full courses on YouTube,   but what you can do over here in the description,  if you go to udemy.com and you search for Blender,  

[42:12] complete Blender mega course beginner to experts,  it costs just 10 euros, $10. And when people   buy this and they get it through your unique  affiliate link, you make money. And if 8 million  

[42:25] people watch your tutorial and a few people, a  small percent just clicks on this link, you can   really make a lot of money. So what else? Oh man,  email marketing, all convert kit, review, there's  

[42:45] a website, if we skip the sponsor stuff, email  tool tester, I love this. Look at this website,   email tool tester. An overview, look at this,  those are the people that are working. Well,  

[42:57] you need to pay four people so there must be some  revenue over here and the only thing they do,   they promote other people's email marketing tools.  So this is in the niche of email marketing or   marketing. So look at this, if I go to OmniSend,  you get a 4.1, the best for e-commerce, the worst  

[43:17] limited integrations, deliverability, OmniSend  review and try it for free. If I click over here,   look at this. There's an affiliate link, affiliate  general, click ID, program ID, partner ID. So  

[43:35] when I book a demo for free and after that I  decide to go with the pro version of Omnisent,   the person from email marketing tool or email  tool tester makes money. I hope you start to   understand how this can all be super cool. If you  find a niche and you start to make content about  

[43:51] it and people start clicking and you start to make  money. So let's go back. What else? ClickFunnels,   well that's the program. I was promoting it but  I took it offline because I was like you pay  

[44:03] $100 per month and you can do the same things with  cheaper tools. So then my integrity is like, okay,   let's make less money, but keep our integrity  high. Ooh, Jasper AI. So I'm interested in  

[44:18] promoting AI related stuff, helping people with  AI related stuff. Why? Because a lot of people   are searching for that. Look at this this AI  tutorial. If you take a look at the first result,  

[44:30] 1.8 million, 1.5 million, 133,000, 1.6 million,  870,000. So what you can do, Jesper AI tutorial.  

[44:44] I don't know yes, I've heard of it, but I don't  know the tool. So a year ago, okay, 73,000. Okay.   Not that much as I was expecting, but let's take  a look at yes, per AI. Yes, per AI. What is it?  

[45:04] AI for marketers. okay. Free trial. Okay. What I  do then, Command F, affiliate, there's nothing.  

[45:18] Then I search for Jesper, or is it Jesper or  Jasper? Jasper AI affiliate, that's what I google.   Affiliate marketing, how to get started with AI  affiliate marketing partner program. Apply now,  

[45:35] does it say anything about commissions? And  commissions, recurring commissions. So if I   would go to Jasper and I go to pricing and people  go for the $39 per month, let's say the commission  

[45:54] is 30%, so 39 times 0.30 per person that signs up  and stays a member, $11.70. So let's say after a  

[46:06] few months, you have 100 people that do this  every month that has this package 100, then   you get $1,170 per month and this is only one tool  you are promoting. If you have the niche AI, then  

[46:19] you can have Jasper AI, Leonardo AI, all the other  tools that people want to learn and probably have   fitted programs. So let's go to YouTube. This is  also what I do. I use chat.gpt, I use Google and  

[46:31] I use YouTube. So what I would search is how to  change yourself into a avatar video video AI. Look  

[46:44] at this three weeks ago, 50,000 views. Wow. This  one, 18,000 views. How can I, how can you do this?   So I watch this. You can create talking video  content without actually being in front of the  

[46:58] camera. My avatar says whatever I want him to say,  and that's how you can create it yourself. First   of all, you need to design the set. I just take  a screenshot So I want to keep on watching to see  

[47:14] how they do it. Let's see if they have a... Okay.  Studio ID, studio ID. Okay. What I can do now, I  

[47:39] can search for affiliate or partner. Okay. I don't  see that. So what I will do, I will search for D  

[47:56] ID affiliate program, affiliate program terms. So  there is an affiliate program. So what I can do  

[48:08] then, I go to YouTube, D dash ID tutorial. A year  ago, 44,000 views. Okay. I made 24,000 or $25,000  

[48:24] with a video with 86,000 views. So every affiliate  program is different, but I know this could make a   lot of money. They have their own platform, which  is also always nice. They can watch those videos   and see based on what they do. You can also make a  similar tutorial. You can make comparison videos,  

[48:43] DID versus HeyJen. Which one is better? 66,000  views. People want to learn this. So what I am   thinking to do is to create an AI platform where  I talk about the best tools on how to make AI  

[49:01] videos. Turn your video into AI animation. You  see people are searching for that. Yeah. Look   at this full thought on YouTube. We have a little  bit of a problem. This looks cool. I don't know  

[49:13] what else to do besides make these videos. Want  to know how I made this follow along to find out.   Follow along to find out a little bit of a  problem. AI is kind of taking over everything. And   I don't know what else to do besides make these  videos. Want to know how I made this all along  

[49:30] to find out follow along. Okay. And then I go to  YouTube channel. Okay. So this guy's kind of doing  

[49:42] what I want to do. Let's see, six months ago.  So this is the video and I can watch the video,  

[49:58] see what he does. If I click over here, that  is an affiliate program. So he uses Runway,  

[50:10] so I can learn more about Runway, play around with  it, practice a lot and then also make a tutorial   about it and put it on YouTube. I can make blog  posts about it, I can compare this tool which he  

[50:22] uses with another one and in that way when people  are searching for how to turn your video into an   AI animation and my quality of my video is great,  then I will appear better in the search results.  

[50:35] So that's what I did with my own YouTube channel.  I have another YouTube channel, C4D. does it still   exist? Yeah, look at this 11 years ago. And I  did the same thing. I want to help people to get  

[50:51] solutions. So I created a tutorial, how to create  something that looked like a glass teapot. I would  

[51:04] turn anything in 3D in glass. 144,000 views and  I could refer them to a course where they learn   more about Cinema 4D. So I had multiple YouTube  channels and then I finally got stuck with one I  

[51:18] like the most and that's making websites. So this  is how I play. I take a look at tools we can use,   then I see if there's an interest in on YouTube  and on blog posts, and if I like the tool and I  

[51:33] know it can help a lot of people, then I want  to learn everything there is about the tool,   dive deep and then make the best content possible.  How? In blog posts, in YouTube tutorials or   reviews and on social media with Reels. So we got  stuck, let's continue over here. You can use VPN.  

[51:53] VPN is very interesting if you're, it's all  about safety within going to the internet. So   you can make a lot of real nice content about  that. Finance and investing, I don't like that   that much. Productivity, time management,  self-development, e-commerce, dropshipping,  

[52:10] very popular as you see over here. Content  creation, Jasper AI, Grammarly, music production,  

[52:22] language learning, it's also interesting,  yeah. Photography, podcasting and YouTube. So   that's how you can do it. You can also, instead of  searching for a niche, what are the best affiliate  

[52:37] products to promote right now. Digital marketing  tools, SEMrush, active campaign, click funnels,  

[52:54] online courses, teachable, Skillshare, and then  you see over here more information about what you   can do with that. They offer $200 per sale. So if  you become a SEO guru, we can go to YouTube, SEO  

[53:11] course, you'll learn a lot about it. Then you can  start to make videos and then you can use SEMrush   in your videos, learn everything about SEMrush  there is, and then when people buy that through   your affiliate link, you get $200. $200 is a lot  of money. Even for the free trial, people get $10,  

[53:30] 120 day cookie. That is that for if people click  on your link right now and after 100 days decide   to buy it, then it's still within the 120 day  cookie, you still get the affiliate. If people  

[53:42] go back after a year and then they buy it, it's  not within those 120 days anymore, so you don't   get credit for that sale. So you can scroll down  and see what is in your niche and you can also  

[53:57] Google for it. What are the best digital products  to promote as an affiliate marketer in 2025. Here  

[54:09] you see already a few online courses, photography,  software, ebooks. So you can also focus on one   software. What the guy did in Blender 3D, there's  Blender Guru. Three million subscribers that are  

[54:25] interested in learning things in the 3D and  the great thing about this tool, Blender 3D is   free. So you can get started for free, you don't  have to buy an expensive software package. And   with the ad revenue from YouTube itself through  advertising, you can also make a lot of money. So  

[54:42] yeah, now it's up to you. What do you like? Which  product is really helping other people? And if you   found that product or that niche with a lot of  products, then dive deep. Watch tutorials. So I  

[54:57] will show you how I will do it. So what I will do,  I will figure out what I want to promote. I think   it will be about AI related stuff and then I need  to come up with a name for my business. That's the  

[55:09] next thing we're going to do. So I decided to go  with AI. What kind of name fits with that? Let's   talk about it after the commercial break. No,  let's talk about it right now. What we're going  

[55:25] to do now, we're going to think about the name for  our business, our online business. And at the one   hand, good to think about it, at the other hand,  don't overthink it. I did not start my company in  

[55:37] 2009 because I had no logo. I was like, I have  no logo, okay, I don't know how I can operate   as a business. Sometimes those little things can  get into the way. So let me give you three tips  

[55:51] on how to get a domain. The first one, choose a  random name, totally random. Apple.com and Apple   has nothing to do with a MacBook or an iPad. It  was just a name. Hey, let's go with Apple and now  

[56:08] it's a super big brand. So if you want to go the  hard route, choose a random name. Another example,  

[56:21] Grayscale Gorilla. If I heard that name for the  first time, I don't know what it is about. It   is about making 3D stuff using Cinema 4D,  a software tool. It's all made with 3D,  

[56:35] but the name is just random. Grayscale Gorilla. So  that's the first option, choose a random name and   go with it. And if your brand becomes so big, then  people will remember it, link it. For instance,  

[56:50] Nickelback, they became popular, 50 cents, they  became popular. Even though it says nothing about   the person. So that is the first option, choose a  random name. The second one, that's what I really  

[57:04] like, is a name with some hints in it. So this  one, video copilot. You know, when you're in   the plane, there's a copilot that is helping  you. So this person wants to be your copilot  

[57:18] when it comes to making videos. If you take a look  over here, I loved these tutorials. I've watched   them so many times on how to work with After  Effects, make special effects in your videos.   It's from Andrew Kramer and then he decided to go  with video copilot. So in the name of the domain  

[57:36] is already a hint to what it's about. It's not  about horses or dogs. No, it's about video and   then a copilot. Then there is the Blender Guru,  talked about him before. Blender is software and  

[57:48] there's a guru. There's a guru is something  that's like he's totally into what he's doing   and in this case with Blender. So blenderguru.com  is a nice domain name for someone that wants to   create tutorials or content about Blender related  stuff. So that's the second option, have something  

[58:05] that's related to what you're operating in, into  video or into Blender. Then there's my favorite,   your first and your last name. If that domain is  still available, please go with it. You can do  

[58:19] anything with it and if you decide after 10 years  you want to do something else, you can shift it.   Then your name can be used for anything. So Tony  Robbins is also a guru or he's not your guru,   but he's helping people to get more out of life.  So his first name and his last name .com. Then  

[58:36] there's Brendan. Hey, he changed his domain to  AI. He had .com for a long time. Brendan.com,   Brendan.ai, only his first name, well that's not  available anymore probably. If your name is John,  

[58:48] John.com is probably already taken, but go with  your first and your last name. What I see in the   logo, really simple, Brandon Pritchard. Then Gary  Vaynerchuk, that's quite a hard name, but it's  

[59:02] marketer, shares a lot of information on how to  do marketing. So his first name and his last name,   that's his brand name. So that's what I suggest  you do. If the domain is still available,  

[59:14] go for Gary Vaynerchuk. Well I mean go for  your first name and your last name.com. And   And in some cases, this is quite a hard name  to say, so sometimes he changes his name to  

[59:26] GaryVee.com. Let's see if that's also, yeah,  that goes to, because that's easier for people   to write. My name is FerdyKorpershoek.com, that's  the domain name I have. It's so long for people,  

[59:39] people have a hard time pronouncing my last name.  So I changed it to Ferdy Korp and last year I had   the privilege to buy ferdy.com to make it easier.  Ferdy.com, that's my brand right now and I want to  

[59:51] teach people how to make a website but if I want  to change something in the future, I want to be   all about mail modeling obviously, then I could  change it. So the shorter the domain the better,  

[1:00:05] so to wrap it up, a random name, apple.com or  grayscale gorilla or something with the keyword   in it, video copilot, blender guru or your first  last name Tony Robbins, Brandon Ferdy or Gary  

[1:00:21] Vaynerchuk and ferdy.com or you go with your  first name and your second name. In some cases,   if people want to maintain the privacy for their  family, they can use the first name and their  

[1:00:33] second name. My name is Ferdinand, my second name  is David, so I could go with FerdinandDavid.com   and then you can do anything under that. So  it doesn't have to be related to your name.  

[1:00:46] So I used Ferdy Korpershoek and I made a lot of  money with it, even though my last name is hard   to pronounce. So if I can give you an advice,  go with the second option or the third option,  

[1:00:58] go with your name if that's possible, your  first and your last name or go with a keyword   related one, Blender Guru, photography with 30,  passive income with 30. So what we're going to do,  

[1:01:16] we're going to create a website where we can  place our content, it can be our blog posts,   it can be our videos, it can be our reels and  we can use it for our affiliate links. Because   affiliate links can be quite long, but if  you have a website you can narrow down to  

[1:01:29] your domain name.com forward slash Jasper AI or  forward slash Canon R6. When people hit that,   that's so much easier for them. So what I will do,  I will put into practice what I said, so I will go  

[1:01:42] with my name ferdykorper.com. So I will see if  that domain is still available and then we're   going to create a website and the great thing is  I want to help you to focus on creating content.   So the website we're going to create, I already  created it for you so you can focus on creating  

[1:01:58] content. So we're going to get web hosting, we're  going to get a free domain and then I got to get a   free website from me. So you can focus on creating  content. So let's do that. Let's take a look at   the steps we're going to take in order to make  this happen. So first you get your free domain  

[1:02:12] name and we will get a web hosting. What is a  domain name? A domain name is the address of your   website. Web hosting is a special computer that's  turned on 24 seven that contains all your files,   all your emails, all your images, all the content  on your website. So with your freedom, a name and  

[1:02:27] web hosting, you are visible on the internet.  Then we will install WordPress and WordPress   is completely free. It's the best tool to create  a website without having to know anything about   coding because WordPress is doing all the  hard stuff for you. And then we will import  

[1:02:40] my pre-made affiliate website. If you already have  a domain and web hosting, you can do two things.   here that can show you step by step how you can  do that. If you already have installed WordPress,  

[1:02:53] you can skip step two and go directly to step  three and I will show you right now where you need   to go in the tutorial in order to follow along  from that point on. So ladies and gentlemen, let's   get started. If you already have a domain name  and web hosting, you can skip this part. If you  

[1:03:07] don't have it, you can go to webhosting64.com, hit  enter, and then you can click over here to go to   Hostinger. Through the years, I've been searching  for the best web hosting companies that are also   affordable, and then I came across Hostinger.  I've already been using their service for seven  

[1:03:23] years and I love it. And I'm not the only one.  If you take a look at the reviews at trust pilot,   Google trends, you see that hosting her is taken  over the web hosting industry. And why? Because  

[1:03:35] their quality is top-notch and they're really  and then you'll see three plans and I will make   it really easy for you. The premium plan offers  25 gigabyte of SSD storage. That's quite fast,  

[1:03:48] but the business plan offers 50 gigabyte of NVMe  storage. NVMe storage is up to five times as fast   as SSD storage. So I would go with the business  plan. Why not the cloud startup plan? Because  

[1:04:00] you can always upgrade later. So when you would  have created 30 websites with the business plan,   then it will be great to upgrade to the cloud  startup plan. But when you're getting started,   I highly recommend the business plan. So what  does the business plan have? You can have up to  

[1:04:12] 50 websites. You get 50 gigabyte of NVMe storage.  50 gigabytes is more than enough. You get a free   domain with other web hosting companies that cost  money. But here at Hostinger, you get it for free.  

[1:04:24] You get unlimited free SSL, which will make your  website secure. You get daily backups, free CDN,   which will make your website fast all over the  world. What I also really like about hosting is   that you get free domain privacy. What does it  mean? Normally when you register a domain name,  

[1:04:39] all your information, your address, your phone  number, your email address will be visible on the   internet. And when that information is available  on the internet, a lot of people can send you spam   With domain privacy, that will be hidden. And  with other web hosting companies that cost money,  

[1:04:55] but here with Hostinger, it is free. And to make  it even better, there day money back guarantee.   So if you somehow don't like the service, you  can get your money back. No questions asked.   So I scroll down and I click on choose plan and  then it says you pay $30.99 per month, but I can  

[1:05:12] give you extra discounts. So if you click over  here, have a coupon code, you can fill in 30,   click on apply and you get 10% extra discount  and you pay $3.59. Hostinger will reward you if  

[1:05:24] you go for a longer period. So the first period  you get web hosting, you get an extra discount.   So if you would go for four years, 48 months,  you pay $3.59 per month for the next four years.   The only thing is you have to pay right now. If  you want to go for 12 months, click over here,  

[1:05:40] you pay a bit more per month, you pay $4.49 per  month, and after your first period, 12 months, 24   months or 48 months, after your first period, you  start to pay $13.99 per month. This is still worth  

[1:05:53] every single penny. If I think about how important  a website is for your business, $30.99 is still   really affordable and the first period you get  extra discount, so or you go for 12 months,   you pay $4.49 per month, or you go for 12 months  and pay $4.49 per month, or you go for four years  

[1:06:07] and you just pay $3.59 per month for the next four  years. So do you want to go for four years for   $172 or do you want to go for one year and pay  just $53.89? I will go with 12 months. So I scroll  

[1:06:23] down and I click on continue and then I need to  register. I can do that with Google, with GitHub   or with my email address. So I will use my email  address. I need to create a password and then I   click on register. We can choose a domain name  later. Then we need to fill in our information  

[1:06:39] over here. So I will fill in my first name, my  last name. I'm from the Netherlands and all this   information can be filled in later. So I will  leave it as it is. If you have a company, you can  

[1:06:51] add your details over here. So I will say what my  company is over here and then I click on continue.   Then there's the payment method and depending  on the country where you come from, there are   a lot of different payment methods. So I can pay  with credit cards, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay,  

[1:07:05] Alipay, but if you're from another country, it can  be that you also see your local payment provider   over here. So I want to pay with credit cards, so  I'll fill in my details over here. So over here,   I click on submit payment. It says your payment's  done. Let's go set up your service right away to  

[1:07:22] start using them. Congratulations with your web  hosting package. Now let's get a domain name.   I already told you how to find your own domain  name. Now I hope you thought about it. If not,   your website and then let's see if it's  still available. So I can click over here,  

[1:07:42] if English is not their main language and look  at how many languages there are. There are so   many more than the last time when I checked.  So if you see your language over here, you can   select it and then you can continue in your own  language. I will continue in English. So for who  

[1:07:55] is this website? This website is for myself or my  business. I click on next. Do you want to create   or migrate a website? I want to create a website  from scratch. So I click on create website, next.  

[1:08:08] How do you want to build your website? I want  to use WordPress so I click on next, and now I   need to create the login details for my WordPress  account. So my WordPress admin email is this one.  

[1:08:23] I create a password, then I click on next. I want  to create a blank site, so I click over here. What   domain do we want to use for this website? So now  we can choose a domain name for our website. And  

[1:08:36] since you get one for free, you can pick your  free domain name right now. So I want to go   with this domain, and then I can see if it's still  available. I want to go for the .com version, so I  

[1:08:48] click over here and then I click on next. Do I buy  this for personal use or for my company? For my   company, so I click on next step, then I will fill  in the information over here, and then I click  

[1:09:02] on finish registration. So it's registering the  domain and now you need to think about the people   you want to reach, where are they living? If  they live in Europe, you can select France or the  

[1:09:15] United Kingdom. If they live in the United States,  you can select one of those two. I go for the   United States, so I click on next. We go directly  to our website. I want to go to Hostinger,  

[1:09:28] so I click over here, go to Hostinger. I close  this and then here at my domain name, I want to go   to the dashboard. Now here we are at our Hostinger  dashboard. It says boosting time almost 24 hours  

[1:09:43] left. So what will happen now? Our website will  go live. It can go live any moment. In some cases,   in most cases, it's live immediately. So what  I can do now, I can click over here and then I   will see if my website is live already. So I click  here, then I will be redirected. And what I see,  

[1:09:59] I'm already live. Look at this. This is my live  website, my domain. So if it's not the case for   you, just be patient for five minutes, 10 minutes,  and if you click over here, your website should be   live within 10 minutes. So what you see over here  is the backend of WordPress. This is where we can  

[1:10:18] adjust our website. If I click over here, I see  the front end of my website. This is what people   will see when they enter our website and it looks  okay, but of course we're going to make it look   so much better and because we are logged in, we  see this bar over here. Other people that are not  

[1:10:35] logged in, they don't see this bar. With this bar,  we can navigate from the front end to the back end   by clicking here. So now I want to close the other  two tabs. This is the backend of our website, this   is the frontend. On the backend of our website, we  can adjust our website. We can create blog posts,  

[1:10:53] we can add videos, images, PDFs, we can create the  homepage, the contact page, the about us page, we   can moderate comments when people have a comment  on a blog post or a product we have. We can change   the look and feel of our website with themes. We  can add extra functionalities to our website. We  

[1:11:09] can add other users that can do things for us on  our website. There are WordPress tools and there   are settings. So congratulations, you're live  now. I like to work in a tidy space. Also here,   everything is tidy and I like to do the same on  my computer. So I just installed WordPress, now  

[1:11:27] let me show you how you can clean it up a little  bit so we can work more efficiently. How can we do   that? Well, the first thing, I want to dismiss  this message, then I want to go to the screen   options and uncheck everything. So the overview  of our dashboard will be clean. Of course,  

[1:11:44] afterwards I want to install Google Analytics, so  I see an overview of our dashboard will be clean.   of my website and if I have a webshop, I want  to see the amount of sales. For now, I want to   leave it empty. Then I want to go to the website,  to the front end. There's one blog post that will  

[1:11:59] come with every WordPress installation and in this  case, it is here. Hello world. If I click on it,   it says my domain forward slash index dot php,  all that stuff. I want that to look better. So  

[1:12:11] I go to the backend, to settings, permalinks,  and there I want to change the custom structure   to post name. So I'll see my domain.com or dot  whatever, forward slash and then the name of the  

[1:12:28] posts. So I click on save the changes. Now I go  to my website, I click over here. Now as you see,   it just says forward slash hello world, that's so  much better. Then I go over here, howdy ferdykorp,  

[1:12:41] I click on edit profile, I want to scroll down,  I want to fill in my first name, last name and   then change the display in name publicity to  ferdykorpzoek and now it says howdy ferdykorpzoek.  

[1:12:58] If you want to have an image like this, let me  save it first, update my profile. I scroll down,   you can change or create your profile picture on  Gravatar, so you need to open this link. Then you  

[1:13:12] can sign up, leave your email address which should  be the same as on your website and upload an image   and that will be displayed over here and over  here. Okay. Over here at the admin color scheme,  

[1:13:26] we can change the look and feel of the backend,  the color. So I can click over here, it will be   light, modern, blue, ocean, etc. You can choose  something you prefer and I prefer the default  

[1:13:41] one. Let's go to posts. I want to select all the  posts even though there's only one and I click   on bulk actions, move to the trash, apply, go to  the trash, empty the trash. Then I go to pages,  

[1:13:58] select all pages, bulk actions, move to the  trash, apply and add the trash. I want to   empty the trash. Then I want to go to plugins,  select all plugins, bulk actions, deactivate,  

[1:14:15] apply, select again, bulk actions, delete. I want  to start from scratch with no plugins. Of course,   we can add plugins later but right now I want to  start with nothing. Now if I go to my dashboard,  

[1:14:32] it looks so much cleaner already. Then I  want to go to the settings, general and   make sure that over here in my WordPress URL,  it says HTTPS and not HTTP. If there's no S,  

[1:14:45] you can add it over here and also over here,  and then scroll down and save the changes. If   you need to change it, you need to log in again,  go back to settings, general, and I scroll down,  

[1:14:59] you can change the site language, you can change  the time zone. If I say I'm from the Netherlands,   so if I focus on people from the Netherlands,  I can just say AMS Amsterdam. I search the city  

[1:15:13] that is in my time zone and then automatically  everything will be synced to the right time zone.   Then there's the date format, I like to prefer  the upper one, you can change it to another one   or have a custom one. The time format, I like  to use PM in capitals. My week starts on Monday,  

[1:15:30] so I click on save the changes. Great. Let me ask  you a question, what is your goal by following   this tutorial? Your goal I guess is to make sales  with affiliate marketing, passive income. Isn't  

[1:15:42] that what we want? Well, I can show you step  by step how to create a website from scratch,   but what I prefer to do is to show you how you  can import a website that I have already created   that is specialized for affiliate marketers so  you can save time and focus on creating content.  

[1:15:59] Because remember, that is one of the names of  the games, creating content, taking action,   perseverance. So instead of showing you  step by step how you can create a website,   channel is about teaching people how to make  websites, but right now I will show you how you  

[1:16:17] can import the website I have created for  you. And then I will show you how you can   adjust it because you're not probably gonna make  exactly the same website having the exact same   niche I have. So I will show you how you can  tweak it. Are you ready? If so, say yes. Yes.  

[1:16:37] You don't have to do that. Maybe it's too late  already, but if you have not done so yet, you   don't have to do it. So right now my website looks  like this. We can make it look better. In order to  

[1:16:49] do that, we go to ferdy.com forward slash AM, that  stands for affiliate marketing and then template.   Hit enter, you'll be redirected to a landing page.  Download the affiliate marketing template and this  

[1:17:06] is the place where I will ask you for your name  and for your email address. The interesting thing   is that in this tutorial, I will also show you  how you can build an email list. So what you do,   you give something for free in exchange for a name  and an email address. So that's exactly what I'm  

[1:17:21] preaching. I'm practicing what I'm preaching and  the great thing is if you download the template,   you can unsubscribe anytime. But what I can  do, if my email list will be built by people   that download this, I can say hey I have a new  tutorial about affiliate marketing and then I can  

[1:17:36] send it to all the people that once downloaded my  affiliate marketing template and never opted out.   So that's how it works. I have 60,000 people  in my email list and if I have a new tutorial,   I've sent it to all those people, then  I get traction from the first moment on,  

[1:17:51] a lot of views and that can help me to boost my  views. So I highly suggest later in the tutorial   to start an email list. So that's what I wanted  to say. My name is Ferdy, my email address is this  

[1:18:04] one at gmail.com. I click on downloads, I need  to check a few things because I'm from Europe.   Subscribe is all done by ConvertKit. I also  use OmniSend. Now check your email to confirm  

[1:18:22] your subscription and download the affiliate  marketing website. So I go to my gmail account,   and there it is Ferdy Korpershoek, important to  confirm your subscription. Thanks for signing up,   click the link below for your subscription and  we will be on your way. I should change this to  

[1:18:38] download the website. So I click over here, there  goes my website. What you need to do now, you need   to go to your website to plugins, add a plugin  and over here I type migration. I love this tool.  

[1:18:56] I use it almost, if not every day. Install  now, it's so easy to export websites, import   websites. So I've created a website for you, I  just exported it and I'll import it and you can   do the same. So I click on activate, because we're  going to use all in one WP migration and backup,  

[1:19:14] a beautiful name for a plugin, a long name. And  over here, I go to all in one WP migration and   I click on import. I unzip the download, right  now it's just 32 megabytes but if I unzip it,  

[1:19:28] look at this 157.8 and I drag it over here, there  it goes and what will happen? This website will   be overwritten with the website I have created.  But the thing is, I also have my own username and  

[1:19:45] password over here, so we need to change those.  So first I will show you how to log in, and then   I'll show you how to change all the information so  you can have your own login details and not mine.   Okay. I click on proceed, I click on finish.  So now when I go to the dashboard it will say,  

[1:20:03] no way Jose, I need to log in again and with the  same details I have in my website that I exported,   I'm the only one that knows them so let me share  them with you. The username is capital A and then  

[1:20:16] affiliate and then the M capital marketing and  the password, let me show it to you, not this   one. So I start with Q on the keyword, then the  W, the E, the R, holding shift, then 1, 2, 3, 4,  

[1:20:35] and then again 1 Login, it works. So I don't have  to save it because I will change it. So the first  

[1:20:53] thing I will do, I will create a new user, add  user. That username will be in my case Ferdy,   the email info at ferdykorpershoek.com. The first  name is this one, the last name is this one,  

[1:21:10] a website and I hide this and I ask for a new  password. Oh, then it will be shown. Okay. Let me   create one. Then I don't need to send this and I  want my role to be an administrator. Add the user.  

[1:21:28] Okay. Now I will log out and now I will log in  with the details I just created. Okay. I go to the   screen options. I missed a letter in my own name,  Fetty Korpershoek. I can change it over here,  

[1:21:45] edit, Ferdy, update. Now if I take a look at  the website, this is how it looks. Scroll down,  

[1:21:59] some text about us, we can show the latest post.  Over here we have the blog page or we can place   blog posts, we have the contact page, people  can reach out to us and a subscribe on YouTube   button so people can become a subscriber. In the  process of making tutorials, making websites,  

[1:22:16] doing everything in life, I keep on learning  new things. So in the tutorial, I show you in   area. And I decided to get rid of the tutorial  area and only use the blog area. And then on top  

[1:22:30] of the blog post, I will place my tutorial. So I  don't have two separate areas. I have one area,   but it can be that in the tutorial, you'll see  the menu item tutorial. So if you don't see that   in the template, everything is perfectly fine. I  decided to get rid of tutorials. So that's what  

[1:22:46] I want to say to you up front, so you don't get  confused. Let's continue. The first thing I want   to do, I want to create a logo so we can make use  of the logo that we're about to create. So let me  

[1:22:58] show you how to create a logo. By the way, before  we continue, one more important thing, you need to   go to users and you need to delete the old user.  So I click on delete, attribute all content to  

[1:23:12] the new user, confirm deletion. So now the user  affiliate marketing is not existing anymore,   so not other people can enter your website. So now  you're the only user, you're the administrator and   now we can create a logo. So before we're going  to create a logo, let's take a look at what other  

[1:23:28] people do. So I go to YouTube and I search for  Blender tutorials. So Blender Guru, what if I  

[1:23:42] would search for blender guru? How does it look?  This logo look like blender guru and a donut.   Okay. Let's go for, um, HubSpot tutorial. Kevin  Stratford. I like the audio. Go to the site.  

[1:24:12] Look at this. This is exactly what I was hoping  for. Kevin, just his first and his last name.   So let's do something else. Does it still.  Web Joomla. Let's see if he has a website,  

[1:24:54] Mr. Web. Just this text. Well, I already  showed you Tony Robbins. This guy knows how to   do marketing. So when his logo is like this, he  thinks about every single pixel on his website.  

[1:25:10] So if this is his logo, that means something. So  that's actually what I want to create and we can   do two ways. I can go to the customizer, then I  can scroll down to site identity and change the  

[1:25:26] title to Ferdy Korper. Thing is, this is also  really important for the search results. So I   would rather not do it like this, what I can do,  let me bring this back. My WordPress and here,  

[1:25:42] say Ferdy Korper, publish, go back and I  click over here and then my site title,   here I can change it, Ferdy Korper. And now if I  go back to the homepage settings, sorry, sorry,  

[1:26:06] sorry, not the homepage, the site identity. Here  it is still my WordPress, I can even get rid of   this. We're going to talk about site title later.  So now my name is displayed like this. If you want  

[1:26:18] it to be like that, it can be the case. Here at  design, we can go for my, the color I use in my   website. So if you really want to be really  simple about this, you can do it like this,  

[1:26:30] or if you want to, you can go to ferdy.com  forward slash Canva, then you need to sign   up. We're going to make use of the free version.  I already have an account. Okay. Then I click on  

[1:26:47] create a design and I go for a square for a logo.  And the logo is square. Not scare, but square. So   I don't even know if scare is an English word.  In Dutch it means poor. People don't want to be  

[1:27:03] scare in the Netherlands. So I go to the text  area and I click on add a text box and then I.  

[1:27:29] And now I want to make it bold. Okay. You  take a look at Tony, it's in capitals.   That's why I also prefer Tony Robbins. So in  capitals, 30, then I want to make it bigger.  

[1:27:49] As long as everything fits in one square. Command  D, control D on the PC and I say, corporate. Now  

[1:28:01] I can play around with this by, let's say, command  on, plus, plus, plus, plus. I can make this closer   to each other. So there's a cool, that's not  cool. Or you can have some space in between,  

[1:28:14] or just as if there is no space. Now let's  talk about the colors for our website. Yeah,  

[1:28:26] what do you want to do? These are nice colors.  You can go to kudlars.com, start a generator,   hit space until you think, I like that color.  Okay. I like this one, so I can lock it and  

[1:28:45] then paste. I like these, so I can drag this one.  Let me see over here. So I can use those colors,   so I lock this, hit space and see which colors  complement those colors. And maybe I like,  

[1:29:06] okay, I like this color, so I unlock  it or I make it a little bit lighter.   Well, that's how you can play around with colors.  If you like the color, what you can do, I like to  

[1:29:19] maybe let ferdy be. Now, corporate, I want it to  be a little bit grayish, not too dark. So I click   over here. So I go here at the left a little bit  up, not too light, but not that super dark. Okay.  

[1:29:38] And then the first one, I want it to be this  one or this one. Let's go with the blue one.   So I copy this and I go to Ferdy, Maybe you're  like, hmm. You can also play around over here,  

[1:30:16] or use the orange one. It's a bit reddish and  this can all be changed later. So it's not like  

[1:30:30] you have to make it perfect at once. Better a logo  than nothing, but it doesn't have to be perfect.   Right now, I can go with this. What I will do, CMD  plus, get rid of this. Okay. Now I say on the PC,  

[1:30:56] print screen and on a Mac, CMD shift 4, then I  drag a selection with some space like that. Now   I go to my desktop because there the image will  appear. I can call this one Ferdy Korper logo,  

[1:31:16] but the thing is the background is white. So what  I can do now, I can go to background remover,   PNG maker, remove background from image for  free. Remove.bg, upload an image. I will go to  

[1:31:34] my desktop, open it and the magic will happen. Now  I can download it in high resolution, there it is.  

[1:31:48] I can rename this to Ferdy Korper logo and then I  can drag it to the desktop. Now I go to WordPress,  

[1:32:00] I click over here, here at general, I select  a logo, upload files, so I select files on my   computer and there I go for the logo PNG. We're  not there yet, I click on edit, then I want to  

[1:32:18] make a selection. Let's see, how do I do that?  They changed this, that's interesting. Let's go   to the media library over here, edit the image.  Now I can crop it. So I make sure that it's as  

[1:32:48] I save the edits. Awesome. Okay,  command zero. Let's close this,   select the logo again. Now I select this  one, select. I get rid of the site title  

[1:33:06] by clicking here, and then over here, the  logo height, I should make that smaller, a  

[1:33:24] like that. What we can do now, we can say FK, zoom  in, or AI. So I like this one, shift command 4,  

[1:33:43] let's make it bigger, shift, shift command 4, try  Something like that. Then I go back to remove.bg,  

[1:34:17] upload an image and I go to the desktop. I go for  this one. I click on download. It's not quite a   square but almost there and I say favicon. I go  to the website, to site icon, upload files, select  

[1:34:37] files, I go to my downloads, my recent download.  Okay. Set as a site icon and now I need to make   a square of it. Crop the image, save the changes  and look at this. FK. So you're on this website  

[1:35:01] and you see, Hey, I want to go back to FK. I need  to make it bigger. So, um, I should actually make   it less. Try to do it like this. And then again,  my camera is getting hot so I need to and then  

[1:35:53] I go to the backend, to settings, general, change  the site icon, upload a new file which is slightly   bigger, select, perfect. Drop the image, save  it and voila, now it is bigger. Awesome. Now,  

[1:36:17] let's take a look at the site title. We can go  to the dashboard, to settings, general and this   is quite important. The site title right now it  says My WordPress, let's change that. So if I  

[1:36:31] would search for HubSpot tutorial and I go for the  search results, you see that the videos are first,   that's why you focus in this tutorial on videos,  making videos is these days more efficient, more  

[1:36:45] lucrative than blog posts and it's in my opinion,  easier to do. Maybe bigger learning curve. I skip   the sponsored stuff. HubSpot CRM training. So I  search for HubSpot tutorial and here's HubSpot in  

[1:37:02] the title, HubSpot tutorials. Platform tutorial,  HubSpot tutorial for beginners. So that's really   important. Don't make a, use keywords in your  title. Don't say welcome to this website. No.  

[1:37:20] So my website, Ferdy Korper is all about  become an AI pro. It's not very appealing,  

[1:37:33] so what I can do, I can go to chat GPT, give  me a iConverting I converting clickable title   for a website that makes tutorials about a lot  of AI related tools. It is a WordPress website.  

[1:38:09] AI made simple. Okay, command. What I can say?  AI tutorials. I want to be found on AI tutorials.  

[1:38:22] And then I like to use a pipe shift backslash,  learn the tools that shape the future. I love   it. Before we're gonna adjust the content, let's  take a look at the colors in our website. I chose  

[1:38:36] those colors, you can adjust them and let me show  you what happens when you adjust those colors.   We're working with global colors. So if I would  go to the customizer of the Bloxy theme, and I   would go to colors, if I change this color, let me  copy to green. Look at this, everywhere I use the  

[1:38:59] green color in my website, it automatically, or I  use this global color right now, it's this one. It   automatically adjusts. So in a few clicks, we can  change the whole look and feel of our website. So  

[1:39:17] I like to work with this color. I like to work  with the orange color, this is the one from the   logo. So you see it adjusts over here. Then we  have the darker blue. If I would change that,  

[1:39:29] then it will look like that. So we see it coming  back everywhere and that's how you can adjust the   style of your website in a short amount of short  time. So one more time, if I would make this,  

[1:39:41] let's say greenish and also this one greenish,  then it looks totally different. So I want to   work with bluish colors. So I go for this blue  color as the main color, then a darker version  

[1:39:58] of that color over here. And that's how you can  play around with those colors. If you're like   the base text should be different, you can choose  a different color over here. I click on publish,  

[1:40:13] close it, so I'm happy with those colors. If  you want to adjust the header, you can go to   the customizer again, go to the header and there  are a few things we can add. So right now we have  

[1:40:27] everything on one line, but if I would go for the  socials and I drag them here on top, look at this,   new area appears. And then here at the left top,  I could have a text, but it's dark. So I can  

[1:40:41] click on the HTML elements, go to design, change  the default state color to white and I can say   sign up for the newsletter, something like that.  Or I can do it over here, change that. If I don't  

[1:41:02] want to use the button, I just get rid of  it and then I can drag search to the right,   there was a voice crack, I leave it in. So you  see there are quite a few things we can do and   if I scroll down, everything disappears but as  soon as I scroll up, it is back. All using a free  

[1:41:20] theme. So I bring it back. I don't know, should I  or not? Let's keep that YouTube button for later.   So now it looks like this, real simple when I  hover over it. Excuse me, something happened.  

[1:41:38] I should have a sip of water, but I don't have  that with me right now. Let me come back in a   minute. So that's better. Let's continue or  shall I start over from the beginning? No,  

[1:41:59] no, no. Let's continue. So let's take a look at  the content over here. In order to adjust that,   we can go to Elementor, edit with Elementor, the  best free page builder for WordPress in the world.  

[1:42:12] And if you open this for the first time, we can  get rid of a few things, messages, and then what I   like to do first, I like to click on the Elementor  logo over here, go to the user preferences and  

[1:42:25] then make it dark mode, that's my preference, you  don't have to do that and show quick edit options.   Okay. I close this, I click over here or I go over  here. Okay. Choose a title with the service you  

[1:42:40] offer. So what I will do, I will go to chat GPT.  I'm not a real good text writer, but chat GPT is,   so I say, I have a website where I showcase  my AI related tutorials. I teach people how,  

[1:43:00] through tutorials, how to work with the best  AI tools. Give me a title, a H1 title for my  

[1:43:15] homepage. Let's see what it comes up with. Master  the best AI tools. Master the best AI tools. I don  

[1:44:20] this one. Learn to use the top AI tools like  a pro. That's what I really like. That sums   it up. Step-by-step tutorials for creators and  innovators. Yes. I could say start watching or  

[1:44:37] watch the latest tutorial, tutorials or sign up  for the newsletter. Right now, call to action,   watch the latest tutorial. And then I would  link it to the tutorials page. Okay. Over here,  

[1:45:01] I want to upload an image of myself. I choose an  image, upload files, select files and then I go   to tutorials, misc, Ferdy. This one or this one?  I think this one is better. It's really big, so  

[1:45:21] let me see if WordPress will make it smaller for  me. I guess it will do that. Let's edit the image,   scale, and I'll say that it can be 1200 pixels.  Scale, and I can go to the style, change the  

[1:45:49] percentage in pixels, publish. Let's take a look  and what I don't like is that it is over here,  

[1:46:02] just out of that, it doesn't look nice. What I  want to do, I want to place this here below. So   in order to do that, let me show you a little bit  more about Elementor and get rid of the minimum   height. Okay. And I go to advanced, I go to  transform and then the offset, I select it, bring  

[1:46:36] this back to zero and then I do it like that. And  here at layout, uncheck margin top, I decrease it   a bit, like that. This is what you don't see in  the builder or in the live page, on the live page.  

[1:46:59] Learn to use the top AI tools like a pro. It's  really big because I had a shorter title. I can  

[1:47:12] go to the line height over here. It's also easy to  do with Elementor. I really like it. Learn to use   the top AI tools like a pro. Okay. Step-by-step  tutorials for creators and innovators. Watch the  

[1:47:28] latest tutorial. Publish image of myself,  about you, what I can do. Let me show you,   I can get rid of this one. Then I go over here  to this inner section, I change the width to,  

[1:47:44] let's say, pixels 600, and then over here, bring  it to the center. About 30. Write where you are,  

[1:48:01] who you are, why you started doing this and what  your goal is. So let me write something and then I   will be back with you. So here's my text, I prefer  it to be in the center so I go to the style of the  

[1:48:17] heading, bring it to the center, also here, style,  center. Okay. So far so good. Publish and now our  

[1:48:30] website is up and running. Congratulations  with that. And what I would do 10 years ago,   I would start writing blog posts, but the world  has changed. Now a video is so much more lucrative  

[1:48:42] and important than blog posts. So what we will  do, we'll create a video and based on this video   using chat gpt and other tools, we will create a  blog post that's perfectly legal, totally in line   with everything we're doing because it's our own  video and using chat gpt and other tools, we'll  

[1:48:58] convert that into a blog post that will save us  a lot of time. So what I'm going to do right now,   I will show you from scratch how you can create  high quality videos that can get you sales and  

[1:49:11] help people at the same time. Let me show you.  Ladies and gentlemen, I have been looking forward   for a few days to record the session. It's now  Monday morning. On Fridays, I don't work. So I  

[1:49:26] so I have to wait for three days to get started  and I'm so excited about this part. It can be   maybe the most challenging part of building your  online business with affiliate marketing and   making videos and having a website but it's also  the most rewarding one. I told you that I'm gonna  

[1:49:42] start over again from scratch. What I would do,  well this is what I would do. We created a website   which is really good, but 10 years ago or maybe 15  years ago, a website was the thing to begin with,   creating content, blog posts and stuff. But there  has been a switch in the latest years and now  

[1:49:58] video is far more important than blog posts. I  make so much more money by making videos than   by making blog posts, but I also understand  that making videos can be more challenging,  

[1:50:10] especially when you want to put yourself in front  of a camera. Well, let me tell you upfront that it   is not necessary. It is better to show your face  a little bit, but recording audio and recording  

[1:50:25] your screen is sufficient. You can make sales with  that. So I challenge you to go all in, also make   videos and show your face and I'm going to show  you step by step what you need in order to make  

[1:50:38] videos and how I would make my video. Well, before  we get started, I want to share something with   you. Since it's a long video, I feel the freedom  to sometimes tell you a story. If you take a look  

[1:50:50] over here, you see my face and it says over here,  as a man think, my furry corpse look is not right.   I did not create this ebook, but this is an ebook  on my e-reader with a picture of mine. And if I   open this, I can read, maybe it's too light, but  I can mark things. And what I've done, there's an  

[1:51:13] amazing book as a man thinks by James Allen. It's  already almost a hundred years old, 45 minutes, a   really short read with a lot of good information.  And I had it in English and I changed it to Dutch  

[1:51:26] using chat GPT. And then I started YouTubing. Hey,  how can I put this word document into an ebook,   an e-pop book so I can read it on my Kobo. So I  think it took me two hours with some breaks and  

[1:51:39] just having a chill time on my couch. and now I  have my own ebook. So now I know how to make an   ebook and the interesting thing is, I have watched  more than five videos in order to get the result  

[1:51:51] I had in mind. The first one was on how to put  an EPUB book on your Kobo reader. There was one   how to convert your Word document into an EPUB,  but then I was like, yeah, now it's converted  

[1:52:07] but the style is really bad. Then I had one, a  document with how to format your Word document   so it will be readable on an EPUB, using EPUB on  the e-reader. So I had to watch multiple videos to  

[1:52:23] get the result I have in mind. What I can do now,  I can make a tutorial showing my face like this.   Hi people, my name is Ferdy and in this tutorial I  will show you from scratch how to go from nothing   or just an ID towards a fully working ebook on  your e-reader. You can even put it on Kindle,  

[1:52:40] you can even put it on Amazon, you can even sell  it, give it away for free. Let me show you step by   step what we're going to cover and then after that  I will start and then I'll share people, okay, you   can write it in Word. How to format the headers,  how to format the text, how to do the line height,  

[1:52:56] how to optimize it in a way that will be readable  on all eReaders. Then I would say, okay, now we   have this, we have formatted the Word document,  let's convert it using this free tool to an EPUB  

[1:53:08] document. Now, how can we bring it to our eReader?  How can we create a cover? So I could make one   tutorial which will make life easier for people  that want to publish their own eBook, because I  

[1:53:21] had to go to three eBooks and that is, I say it  again, eBooks and that is, I say it again, that's   the name of the game, let's not say that anymore,  that is how it works. I have watched three videos,   but I would rather have watched one complete video  so I don't have to search. It took me two hours.  

[1:53:38] If I would have watched one video of 20 minutes  that showed me from scratch how I could have done   everything, it could save me a lot of time. So  that's what I want to do in my tutorials. I want  

[1:53:50] to create tutorials, I want to create videos that  give people the complete solution. This chapter   is about equipment or it's about how to make  a video but I wanted to give this introduction  

[1:54:02] just to show you how important it is to have  a video that is better than other videos. That   brings me to the next thing, there's a beautiful  saying, be the first one or be the best one. When  

[1:54:17] it comes to making videos, maybe there are already  people on the internet making videos about AI.   There probably are a lot. I've seen that a lot of  people want to learn things about it. So in order   to stand out, I need to make better videos. I'm  not the first one anymore, so I need to be the  

[1:54:33] best one. And that's my mindset when I create  videos. And let's go to YouTube for a moment. I   go to YouTube, I go to my channel, to the videos,  to the oldest video.. It's a really amazing video.  

[1:54:58] Wow. Oh yeah. This one. What's this really your  first video? Fantastic quality right from the   start. Impressive. It's not a few weeks ago.  I got this comment. This is three years ago. I  

[1:55:10] never responded. That's not good. But how cool is  that? I remember when I was making my first video,   I remembered I want to have good audio. I want  to have a cool, good resolution for my screen.  

[1:55:22] And when people say, is this your first video? It  really stood out. Well, that's what I want to help   you with. How to create a video that stands out.  And the great thing is, you can do that with a lot   of equipment, with $20,000 worth of equipment, but  you can also do that with no budget. Assuming you  

[1:55:39] have a computer and assuming you have a phone,  you can get started. So what we're going to do,   to show your face. We're going to talk about  audio, audio is really important. We're going to  

[1:55:52] talk about lighting, so people can see you. We're  going to talk about screen recording software and   we're going to talk about environment. How can  you put it all into a nice view? So let's get  

[1:56:04] started with the first one. Let's go to ferdy.com  forward slash equipment, like that. Hit enter and   it will be redirected. That's why I use my website  to this blog post which I just created. I did not  

[1:56:19] even create a category yet. The best equipment  for YouTube videos. And what I'm going to do,   I'm going to talk about free tools and I'm  going to talk about cheap tools that can   give you some quite nice results and I'm going  to talk about high quality stuff. Over here,  

[1:56:33] I think I have more than $25,000 in equipment,  second camera, lens. The thing I see over there   which I'm not even using right now is worth 6,000  euros in total. Yeah, but it's because I'm already  

[1:56:49] doing this for 10 years. You can get started  with almost nothing. I had my laptop and I had a   microphone. The microphone, the Zoom H4n was $400.  I use it for my work. So I put it in front of me,  

[1:57:01] from that moment on, the audio of my videos was  great. So let's go to cameras. What I could do,   I should do that, I should use affiliate links.  That's the whole thing what I'm trying to teach  

[1:57:13] you. I'm offering value in this tutorial, but if  you would buy this through my affiliate links, I   have no affiliate links yet over here, but if you  buy the snowball microphone through my affiliate   link, then I make money. That's how it works.  I've not done that, but I will do that in the  

[1:57:26] future. So when you buy one of the things could  start out with your phone. You don't have to buy   an expensive camera in order to succeed with this.  Let me show you. So I have my iPhone, I know it's  

[1:57:43] a really good iPhone. So I put it on the stand and  say, hello people, my name is Ferdy and in this   video, I will show you how you can turn this face  or your face in your videos into a cool animation  

[1:57:55] like this. I can also turn the camera around,  so I have a bit better quality. I can put it on   the stand and I say, Hey people, my name is Ferdy  and in this video, I'll show you how to transform   yourself into a nice animation like this. Hi, my  name is Ferdy. Let me show you how we can do that.  

[1:58:11] So also with your phone, you can create something  like that. And the great thing is, if your phone   is over here or over here, close by, then it  can be that the quality of the audio is good  

[1:58:24] enough these days that you don't have to use other  equipment. But we're going to talk about camera   audio later. So when it comes to video, if  you can use your camera, then you don't have  

[1:58:37] to spend something because lighting and audio is  more important than video. These days, all those   cameras can make equipment, do record things. So  if you have no phone and you want to get started,  

[1:58:49] there was a really cheap phone over here, $40  that is relatively cheap. It has a camera on   it. You can get started with that. If you want to  take it to the next level, I have the Canon R6,  

[1:59:01] I think in the Netherlands it was $2,300 or euros.  And I have the Canon 85 millimeter 1.2 lens, that   lens was $2,000. So total of around $4,000. It's  not necessary, but I like to go all in. This is my  

[1:59:17] work. I make a lot of money with it so I can buy  the best equipment. I could buy a $5,000 camera,   but it's overqualified. So for me, the Canon R6  is good enough. Right now there's the Canon R10.  

[1:59:29] I could make this an affiliate link and it is  around $1,200. And the great thing is this one   is with a camera lens on it. And that lens  can zoom from 18 to 150 millimeters. So it  

[1:59:45] can zoom out. You see a lot of space and you can  zoom in right now. What you see over here is 85   millimeters. So 150 would be a lot more zoomed in.  And 35 would be that you would see the whole space  

[1:59:59] around it. Let me show you with my camera what I  mean. This is zoomed out, this is 35 millimeters,   I think it's even 24. This is 35. This is maybe  60 or 50. This is 135. So depending on the range,  

[2:00:16] it has a totally different look. So I can  record myself like this and then you see   the whole background behind me. So and the great  thing is when you have a lens that can do that,   zoom in. So that can be really nice. So when it  comes to cameras, really simple, use your phone,  

[2:00:33] put it on the stand. Want to find out iPhone stand  or iPhone tripod. This is how I roll. Just Google   $30, 13 euros, Timu $8.40. This is amazing. I  have one like this. I don't know where it is,  

[2:00:53] but I could put it on the stand and then use that.  So then I can invest relatively not a lot of money   so I can film myself. As I said before, audio  is more important. The rule with audio is the  

[2:01:05] further away the audio source, the microphone,  the worse it gets. So I have my microphone just   out of the frame. Hello, my name is Ferdy. This  is really close by. Right now it's over here. I  

[2:01:19] think the audio is great. If I go back, hey, my  name is Ferdy and the audio is farther away. So   the farther away the microphone is, the worse the  quality becomes. I should speak up more. So when  

[2:01:31] it comes to a microphone, you can do two things.  You can have a microphone out of the frame,   you can have a microphone in the frame. For  years, I've been using this microphone you see   over here and the audio is great because the  microphone is really close to my mouth and I  

[2:01:46] was also not getting distracted with a lot of  noises outside of my room because I was using   a cool condenser microphone, but I think it's  better to use my hands to have no camera in front   of me. I prefer that. This is a really expensive  camera, $2,000, the Sennheiser MK50, I'm not sure.  

[2:02:06] But let's start with the budget ones. As I said,  if you use your phone and you hold it close by,   because you want to use audio. So what you better  can do is use a camera or a microphone that can be  

[2:02:22] linked with your computer. So when you record your  computer screen, which we're going to talk about,   then it automatically also records the microphone.  That's what I have right now. This recording is   not linked with my phone, my word, my camera is  linked with my computer because of the computer  

[2:02:38] I'm recording right now. So the first option, if  you want to go for a budget is to snowball Mike,   it's $28 and I use this one. The quality is  great. If you just put it in front of you, you can  

[2:02:50] talk and start talking and the audio is great. And  as I said, the audio is more important than the   video. Audio is so important. If I go to YouTube,  I want to learn something and the audio is bad,   I'm gone. You want to have high quality audio, so  people don't leave you. And the more people leave  

[2:03:07] your video on an early state in the video, the  more YouTube thinks okay this video is probably   not good because people click on it, but then  they leave. So the more, the longer people watch,   the more watch time you have, the more you will  be shown in the search results. So that's why  

[2:03:23] it is really important to do everything possible  to make people watch. So good audio, good video,   good lighting, but especially be good at what you  do. Yeah, go straight to the point. Don't talk too  

[2:03:37] much in the introduction because people are like,  okay, 20 minutes or 20 seconds in the video still   talking about, not about the subject. Bye bye.  So what I do is, hi, my name is Ferdy and in this   video I will show you how you can turn your face  into an animation like this and then I show the  

[2:03:52] animation. I'll do it in editing the video. Let me  show you how it is done. The first thing we need   to do, we need to go to ferdy.com forward slash  change your face, and then a shorter URL, and then  

[2:04:05] people go to the link, and that can be a pay tool,  and when people pay for the tool, I make money. So   I'll be straight to the point. So I was talking  about audio. I'm all over the place. I'm excited.   And at the other hand, I'm, I'm a little bit all  over the place. I hope you bear with me. Let's  

[2:04:22] go to the second option. You can have a wireless  camera or microphones like this. You can put this   one over here. You link it to your computer or to  your audio interface. We're going to talk about  

[2:04:34] audio interfaces. Those are a step in between the  microphone and the computer so we can enhance the   audio a bit. You can put this in your phone, so  it will be going directly to your phone and when   you've done that, your audio is here but your  video can be over there and then you still have  

[2:04:49] good audio because it's wireless. There is this  option, 169. If you want to go for the better   option, there is the road wireless pro two. I  think I have this one road wireless go gen three,  

[2:05:05] $259. You just put it over here and it starts  recording automatically. Uh, man, it's, it's   doing an amazing job. It's really easy to bring  it from the device to your computer afterwards in,  

[2:05:17] Afterwards, in the editing, you can put it next  to each other, below each other. Really nice tool   this one. It makes it really easy also to record  outside and when you just put it here, no matter   what you do, the audio is there. And there are  millionaires on YouTube who have great YouTube  

[2:05:32] channels with more than a million subscribers  and they just use this and they see a big thing   over here. But since everybody's doing it, it's  perfectly fine to do that. And then if you want   to go next level, there's the Rodecaster Pro. I  use that one. I have the Rodecaster Duo because  

[2:05:47] it's smaller. And in this device, I already set  up a lot of settings like how to deal with if   it's silent, then it cuts away the low noise and  you can set it up like that. And then I link my  

[2:06:01] road coaster directly with my computer. And when I  record my computer screen using ScreenFlow, which   is screen recording software, which I kind of talk  about later, then everything will be in one fell,   my computer screen and the audio of that. And  then I grabbed my camera files. I put it in,  

[2:06:18] I sync it in Adobe premiere, and then everything  is working perfectly fine. This is what's more   expensive. Um, so it depends on what you want to  go with. If you use those wireless things, you can   just direct them into your computer, do some audio  editing with it and then you have also an amazing  

[2:06:34] result and you don't have to buy this one. If you  buy this one, you also need to have a microphone   and then there is one that goes with it. The Rode  PopMic Pro. Rode PopMic Cardioid Dynamic Broadcast  

[2:06:47] Mic. It's just $99. The audio quality is insane.  Sometimes I consider to get that one but I don't   want to have a microphone in the frame anymore.  So if you would get the Rodecaster with this one,  

[2:06:59] you have super, super, super good quality audio.  So that's what you can do. And as I said before,   I have the Sennheiser MHK 50, 1600 euros. I linked  it with my Rodecaster Pro and then it goes into my  

[2:07:18] computer. I'm happy with the results. I'm happy  that you don't see it. It's just over here. I   like the whole setup. So that's the next level and  man, you can take it as far as you want. The Shure  

[2:07:32] SM7B, Shure SM7B with an H is also an amazing  microphone, 400 euros. It's doing a great job.  

[2:07:44] It's right in front of your face. So those are the  audio options, and then we can talk about light.   So what I will do, I'll turn off all the lights.  Some I have to do manually, some I have to do with  

[2:07:58] my phone. So I turn this one off. So what I see  right now is two backlights. I have one light   that's focused on my YouTube button and there's  my one backlight. Now I have only one light that's  

[2:08:12] from behind. I like the cool effect if I turn  it off. I hope you were able to hear me. So now   I have nothing, only my computer screen. So there  are three lights you can use. There's a key light,  

[2:08:25] that is this one. If you have this one, you  already have something. It's a bit dramatic. So   oftentimes you can fill it up with a fill light.  So just a key light, it's the main light. And the  

[2:08:38] bigger the source, the more, less harshness you  have in the shadows. So if I would turn this off,   and I would use my phone, which is a really small  source, and it would look like this. Really hard  

[2:08:53] shadows. Hey, but there's also a nice opportunity  and look at this, if you go have a light from   the back, you get a nice glow. Yeah. So I really  like to play around with this. I recently moved,  

[2:09:06] so I played around a lot with it and this is my,  so far how my studio looks. So there's the key   light. I can have a fill light, this one. If I  turn this off and I turn on the other lights,  

[2:09:21] you get a really dramatic look. So this is my  backlight, so this shines a bit more. Already   really cool to make it more dramatic. This is  also a really cool look because this is quite  

[2:09:33] dark and then there's light, but I prefer,  I don't know if I prefer it. If I do this,   this is also really cool. I don't know, what  should I do? Let me know in the comments. And  

[2:09:48] then I use two Philips Hue lights to give the  background some cool lightning, not too much.   And I have one light that's pointing towards my  blue computer. It's a blue light, it makes it a  

[2:10:01] bit more blue, otherwise I just like it if it's a  bit more blue. So this background gives a little   bit more dynamic in the frame, but I have to say,  I really like this without the second light. I'll  

[2:10:18] think about what I will do with this. But man,  yeah. While doing things, you learn things.   But let's talk about what kind of lights. The  bigger the source, the softer the shadow. So what  

[2:10:30] my suggestion is, use one big softbox and have  it as close as possible, but not in the frame.   I have it in the frame a little bit, I'm okay with  it, but don't make it be over here. So you can use  

[2:10:43] this one that's 90 centimeters. Oh no, no, that's  not true. This is the budget option. So for $40,   you have a light like this, put it 45 degrees  like that and 45 degrees like that and then it  

[2:10:59] shines. Super cool. You get a nice triangle is  what they say in the shadow. Then you can have   a smaller fill light, it could be the same light  but a little bit less power and then one light. It  

[2:11:11] can be a small light from the back. So you could  search for small backlight, best small backlight.   That's how I roll just for YouTube studio. Well,  there's a small one, 70 euros. I use this one,  

[2:11:31] something like that, but then with Philips Hue,  yeah, you can learn so much things from this. I   learned things from Ben Johnson, who's really good  in making cool studios, cool lighting. So I have,  

[2:11:46] what I already told you, I have a softbox over  here. Let me just show you how it looks. This   is my main light, really big, 90 centimeters  in diameters. Then there's the second light,  

[2:11:58] really it's not that bright. Computer screen,  there's the backlight for the blue thing. Then   there's this one, really ugly how I made  it and then there's this light that shines  

[2:12:11] on my YouTube button and two backlights  which are almost not visible on the video.   Then my camera is all over there. But the light  needs to be powered of course. So it's really cool  

[2:12:29] if I can have a softbox like this one. This  is a really cool softbox, relatively cheap.   I use Aputure, but it's more expensive, three  times as much, but this would also do the job.  

[2:12:43] But then you need a light source and that, yeah,  if you don't have a lot of budget, it's still $239   or you could just search for cheapest light for  YouTube studio and there are some great lights. So  

[2:13:03] 15, 15 euros. Timu, I don't get it with Timu, you  have to gamble, skip the promotion and to cart,   well, take a look at the reviews, but you can do  something that's relatively cheap. But if it's  

[2:13:24] possible, I would go with the Nanlite FS30B and  you have a lot of power and if you put a softbox   on top of it, the one from Neewer, then you get  something like this. Then you can also have a  

[2:13:37] have a smaller softbox for the second light and  maybe softbox for the lighting on top. And if you   have more money, you could buy three of those.  I use three of them. I use the Aperture Storm,  

[2:13:51] something too expensive, $2,000, $1,000 and two  expensive sub boxes from aperture. So a three   light setup will be great. Then you have the key  light, the fill light, the second one is to fill  

[2:14:04] up your face, the shadow and then the third one  is the opposite 180 degrees from the key light   and that is the backlight and those three together  give a really beautiful look. I know it's a lot of  

[2:14:19] money but with this you will be done except for  the soft boxes that you need. I have this package   and I'm really happy with it and the great thing  with those lights, you can have RGB lights. So the  

[2:14:33] blue one is not possible with my aperture, but  with this one I can have all the colors in the   world. So that's it for lighting and remember  the bigger the source of the softbox, the more  

[2:14:46] soft it becomes. That's why I have a softbox on my  backlight, otherwise the shadow over here will be   too harsh on my desk and now it's a bit softer as  you see. So that's why, oh man, I love that. The  

[2:14:58] bigger, man, if I will be a photographer, I would  buy the biggest softbox there is. And then if you   make pictures of people, it becomes so beautiful.  I hope you like this style. I was also really   happy with my older office, but there you could  not see my hands, there I had a microphone. So  

[2:15:13] I think through the months, through the years, I  will make it better. But that's it about lighting.   So we already covered the camera, audio and  lighting. Then we also have environment. I don't   have anything about that over here. But yeah,  if the environment is smaller, you could capture  

[2:15:32] yourself with a wide view, a wide angle fish eye,  they also call it. Then put it over here and then   this and this. If you have a bigger space, you  can zoom in a bit more. Then you can put it on  

[2:15:45] one or on two or on five. And that's what I've  done. I use an 85 millimeter lens. It's totally   at the other side of the room. I need to walk to  it in order to make sure it works and be creative.  

[2:16:01] What I would say about environment is make sure  that you're able to make it completely dark, so we   can do all the lighting with artificial lights,  with lights, not with the light from outside,  

[2:16:14] the sun or the clouds, because if that's the case,  you're always, you don't have complete control.   So if the sun shines and then it can become too  bright, and then if it starts raining, it becomes  

[2:16:26] too dark. If it's night, it's darker. So make  sure you are able to be in charge of the light.   But now I use the 35 millimeters. I use another  camera with another lens, it's the 35 millimeters,  

[2:16:40] it can zoom in until 70. So let me continue with  this and now you see I'm a little bit, the camera   is a little bit closer but I zoomed out a little  bit more, so now the whole frame is different  

[2:16:54] than with this. So I'm still figuring out what  do I like the most. I think, I don't know. But   as long as I'm in the picture, the quality of what  I show, what I tell, what you hear, what you see  

[2:17:07] is great. And what I teach you is straight to the  point, then I think I'm good to go, no matter if   I use that zoomed in lens or this lens. So I  continue, what I want to talk about right now   is screen recording. Because if you want to show  people how to do things on a computer, you need to  

[2:17:23] record your computer. So I'll close all this stuff  for now, and then we go to screen recording. Yeah   there's a free version of OBS studio. I have  to be honest, if I see software and it costs  

[2:17:37] money and I really like it, I tend to stick with  it. Even though if there are free alternatives,   well, there is a free alternative. It's both for  Windows, Mac and Linux. And what I like and really   like about my current software scheme, screen  flow is that I can make my pointer bigger. So  

[2:17:55] people can see where I am in the video. Otherwise  it can be such a small thing and people are like,   where is he going? I don't know if that's possible  with OBS studio. If it is, it's great, but I   stick with the one I use. The thing I like about  ScreenFlow for a Mac is that you only pay once.  

[2:18:13] I pay $169. If there's a new version, I need to  pay for it. But oftentimes that is not necessary   because it does exactly what I want it to do. Um,  but I like it. That is one price for one time,   not every year. If I would go to Camtasia for the  PC or Ben, let's go to Benny cam and you click on,  

[2:18:34] buy, you pay per year. And it's not a lot, it's  $49 or it's $33. But what I don't like is the idea   of paying every time again for software I use.  I prefer to pay at once. So if you're on a Mac,  

[2:18:48] I would definitely go with ScreenFlow. That's  also what I will use in my tutorial, my course.   If you're on a computer, you can go with Bandicam  or I would go with OBS studio, and then you can  

[2:19:00] go to YouTube and search for how to record your  computer screen using OBS studio. And there again,  

[2:19:14] link your audio with OBS studio. You can link your  computer screen with OBS studio. You can even link   your computer with OBS studio and with screen  flow so that you can push on a button and then   you see yourself in the full view. The next thing  is you push another button and then you see your  

[2:19:29] computer screen with you in the corner. And the  third option is to only show your computer screen   without you being there. So there's a lot of,  there are a lot of cool options. I want you to see   a lot of people want to learn this. So I could  also make a website and a YouTube channel and  

[2:19:43] social media about how to become a video maker.  That's actually what I'm doing in this tutorial,   but normally this YouTube channel is focused on  focus on helping people to make a website, but you   see how many people are searching, are watching  this. So if you want to learn people how to make  

[2:20:00] videos, you get a lot of, you can get a lot of  views if the quality is great. So this guy has   probably made a beautiful video. If I would make  this, I should make it better. That's my role. So,   um, um, yeah, it's up to you. You can go with the  free version, both for Mac or PC. For the Mac,  

[2:20:18] I would go with ScreenFlow. For the PC, I would go  with Bandicam. I've used it. It was really simple   to use. So that's it about equipment. If you want  to use a free version of OBS studio, that means   that if you install it, you're going to use it  that today you can start to make your video. If  

[2:20:36] can use your phone, you can use one of the things  I've shown you over here, and if you go with a   microphone that goes directly into your computer,  then I'll show you later on how you can link that  

[2:20:48] with your software. So now I'm going to show you  how I will make a video and I want to show you   the process. So it's not like, okay, now I'm going  to record something, now I'm going to do research,  

[2:21:00] I'm going to watch a few tutorials and I'm going  to take you with me so you can see exactly how I   come up with an idea, how I prepare, how I record,  how I edit, how I export, how I put it on YouTube   and all the other things. I'm going to show you  every single thing. If you can appreciate it,  

[2:21:15] then please like this video, feel free to  subscribe for more upcoming videos. And hey, why   not? If you want to share this with someone else  that can maybe benefit from this, feel free to do   that. Thank you. And let's continue. It is time to  start preparing for my first video and also this  

[2:21:38] part is something that I did not prepare. Why?  Because I want to take you along with me. If I   would come up with a perfect idea, with a perfect  outline or script of the video I want to create,  

[2:21:50] how am I helping you? So I've not prepared,  I only saw something on YouTube and I'm like,   hey, that's something I would like to create  and that's how it goes. As I said yesterday,   I created this e-book myself, so from now I can  write my own book and publish that and show that  

[2:22:09] on an e-reader so I can read it myself or let  other people read it. That's how my life goes. I'm   in the car, I get an ID. So when you read Think  and Grow Rich, listen to Jim Rohn, to Brian Tracy,  

[2:22:23] you do your best to develop yourself as a person,  sometimes IDs pop up. So sometimes I search for an   ID, like hey what is hot topic right now in the  niche I'm active in, but most of the times it's  

[2:22:36] just when I'm just doing life that I get an idea.  So I was on the internet and I saw a video like   how to turn yourself into an animation. So that's  what I want to search for and see if people are  

[2:22:49] really interested in that. I thought that video  had already 200,000 views in a few weeks. And   then again, yeah, other people are already doing  that. Well, I'll do my best to do it better. And   then the goal of course is to sell or promote  tools that have an affiliate link. And sometimes  

[2:23:06] if they don't have an affiliate link, that's  also fine because then you can get more views,   more traction, and your YouTube channel  can grow. If people watch videos from you   that don't have affiliate links in it, but people  watch it for a long time, that can also help you,  

[2:23:21] your other videos to be shown more. So in the  end, I promote everything that is helping other   people. Keep in mind, that's what we started this  whole course with, it's about helping people.   How can I help people as good as possible with  the videos I'm about to create? So this video  

[2:23:37] I'm recording right now, I want to use an  animation for that. So I'm going to find out   how to do that. So I will search on YouTube for  how to turn your video into an animation with AI.  

[2:23:53] Okay. Something like that. It's already a year  ago. This is something that looks really cool.   A lot of views. It was not a short, but there was  an other video that I saw. I got a lot of views.  

[2:24:11] It's less than a month old. Wow. This looks cool.  This looks really cool. So I need to start out. It   was this one. Oh, it was this one. Look at  this. Oh, wow. Emmanuel crown. Super cool.  

[2:24:29] So that's why I'm interested in. So what I'll  do, I will click on it. And what I will do,   I will open my notes, make them a bit bigger.  And I say video to AI animation tutorial. And  

[2:24:58] I'm gonna watch the video and make notes of what  I see, So here, consistent character. So you can  

[2:25:22] even make a whole video movie out of this since if  the animation will stay the same. So that's really   interesting. By the way, I really like a studio  cameras close by a little bit of fish. I know.  

[2:25:37] Yeah, you see a lot of the backgrounds, really  nice. I don't want to make all scripts and all   storylines. What I want to do is make this  shot into an animation like this. That's it.  

[2:25:53] So, but I keep the, I take time for this because  it's really important. I want to make a really   good video, not go through it too quickly. So I'll  just watch the video, maybe I will fast forward a   bit, make some notes and then I will be, I'm  not sure if there's an affiliate program. So  

[2:26:26] I'll say affiliate program, creative partners. I  could apply pronouns, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube,  

[2:26:38] portfolio. I do want to become a member of CCP.  Then I can say, I want to make tutorials. So,   but first let's make a video. So what I will do,  I will search for more tutorials on runway. So  

[2:26:56] I get the hang of it and then I'm going to try  it. Tutorial. I see people are watching it. Also  

[2:27:10] six months old, five months old, four months old.  Oh, look at this one. In this video, I'm going to   show you how to create and animate an expressive  character. So I'm going to watch multiple videos  

[2:27:26] and then I'm going to make one video. That's  really good. What I thought about the first video,   I thought it was really good video, the content,  but maybe, maybe I shouldn't say that, maybe it  

[2:27:38] could be a bit less boring. I don't know, but  okay, what I can do, I can do it the way I will   do it. I like to make it shorter, go straight to  the point so people don't have to wait. So I will  

[2:27:54] see if I can differentiate myself from others by  making it shorter and more straight to the point,   and I'm going to watch this video and that's  how I roll. I'm going to take my time for this,   as I said before, that's why I'm not going  to show you everything, but I will keep my  

[2:28:08] computer running so you can see what I'm writing  down over here and then there comes a time that I   want to try the tool. So I'm going to watch this  video and then I'll be back with you. So what's  

[2:28:21] happening right now, it says you can use runway.  So there's runway, but you can also use cling.   So I will note all those other ones. So I can  also make the torrents about those other tools.  

[2:28:44] So I converted an image to a video  using my own audio. If you're seeing   this video has the potential to completely change  your life. My name is Ferdy and in this tutorial,  

[2:28:58] I will show you everything I know on how  to get started and become successful with   affiliate marketing. In my opinion, the best  way to make money on the internet. Let me   show you what we will cover in this tutorial.  Okay. Interesting. Weird backgrounds. Okay.  

[2:29:18] Nice try. And that's how I keep rolling. I  keep trying things and if I'm like, yeah,   this is what is happening. So I  continue. Okay. What I will do,  

[2:29:43] I will go to iStock photo and I search  for a beautiful, beautiful girl or woman.  

[2:29:58] Let's see if we can use this one. Okay. Now I  go back to Hey Jen, to the homepage, photo to  

[2:30:11] video. I drag this on over here. Okay. I can also  create a script so I can say surprise me. Okay. I  

[2:30:24] get the script. I've chosen the voice. I click on  generate video. So let's take a look at this one.  

[2:30:50] Wow, I'm impressed. I really like this. So what  I want to try now, to see if we can also make it   horizontal. So what I can also do, I can create  a tutorial how to turn any image into a talking  

[2:31:06] avatar. But again, then I'm not going the extra  mile. That's like, okay, I'm going for the easy   stuff. So I'll dive deeper, continue to see what  is possible. I still want to create something  

[2:31:20] like this. So I'll continue to do research.  Look at this. There's so many cool things you  

[2:31:36] can do with runway and I can make tutorials about  them. This one is two months old, already 108,000   views. Two months ago, 14 of the 43,000 views.  Interesting. I think this one is really what I  

[2:32:10] was looking for? Yeah, there was the video I was  looking for. So now he's talking about cling AI.  

[2:32:23] So let's search for cling AI. Okay. Awesome.  The question is, is there a Kling AI affiliate  

[2:32:40] program? Let's skip the sponsored stuff.  So there is an affiliate program. That's   great. Let me see what does it cost Kling AI.  I will make my first tutorial about Cling AI,  

[2:32:55] but as I've already seen, there are so  many tools I can promote. I really like it.   So it's now a day later, I've watched, I think  three hours of tutorials, not three hours of  

[2:33:10] tutorials, but for three hours I have been  going through the internet, watching videos,   seeing what I like. I made a lot of notes. So  if I take a look over here, yesterday I made   a lot of notes and this is how it is. A little  bit chaos, but for me that works. So right now,  

[2:33:27] this is what I have for my tutorial. How to  turn yourself into a 3d animated character. I   want to give an introduction, this is what we're  going to do and then I want to go straight to the   point. Create an avatar using chat GPT, you  need to have a reference picture of yourself.  

[2:33:42] I'll show people how to do that. Then we need to  go to ferdykorper.com forward slash cling AI and   that will be an affiliate link in the future.  Then at cling AI, we're going to turn an image   that we create using chat GPT into a video. Then  I'm going to give it a prompt like how should it  

[2:33:59] behave. Then we're going to add lip sync, so  I'm going to upload a file, an audio file of   my introduction, bring it to Cling AI so that the  animation character will do exactly what I say,  

[2:34:12] use hands, gestures and stuff. And then people  will have a final result and to give the extra,   to go the extra mile, I want to give something  extra like, hey, we've done this, but you can also   create something like this or this or this. What  I should do in the tutorial, I should refer to  

[2:34:28] another video because if people watch two videos  of you on YouTube, then you will be in their   algorithm. That's what you want. So give a lot of  value over deliver and then refer to other videos  

[2:34:42] so when people click on that, then they watch the  second video of you and then YouTube will show   your videos more and more. So this is how I do  it. Of course, I could make a perfect structure,  

[2:34:55] but this is just how I do it and it's working  for me. So feel free to do your own thing. What   I should do, I should practice this first, so I  should create another account, play around with  

[2:35:09] everything, see if everything works and if I get  stuck, I need to fix that, watch a few more videos   until I practice it until the point that it's  completely working. Because what I can do now,  

[2:35:22] I can do the tutorial without practicing, right  now it's all theory but then when you get stuck,   you will come across less confident. So first  I'm going to make myself confident by practicing  

[2:35:35] what I'm about to show in the tutorial and when  everything is working, I adjust my notes and then   I will be able to do it. I have a second computer  over here. What I really like, they're both Macs,   so I can go with my mouse over here to my other  screen. Really simple using Bluetooth or Wi-Fi,  

[2:35:55] I don't know. So here I practice and then here I  record it. And then the question is, do you want   to show your face during the whole tutorial?  That is a bit harder. What I normally do,  

[2:36:09] I record my intro, hey in this video we're going  to turn yourself into a 3d animated character.   blah. Let's get started. And then I stop the  recording of my video, then I'm only going to  

[2:36:21] record my computer screen and then I use my second  monitor over here because I'm not recording myself   in the camera anymore because I don't like this  when it's in front of me while I'm recording,   but then I just take a look at my notes and  then I'm like, okay, we're going to do this and  

[2:36:36] this and this. We're going to do this and this  and this. And then at the end of the tutorial,   please like it. Feel free to subscribe for more  upcoming AI related tutorials. And if you have  

[2:36:48] any questions, leave a comment and you the best  in what you're doing. Bye bye. Something like   that. In my tutorial, I will do both. I will  both record myself, the whole tutorial and my  

[2:37:00] computer screen and of course my audio. So I will  prepare, do everything, what I want to do in the   tutorial and then if everything is working, I will  come back to you, show you my setup and show you  

[2:37:12] how I will record my tutorial. I'm excited.  Today, I'm going to create a tutorial. Yes,   I hope you will also record your tutorial very  soon. I hope you're excited. If you like this  

[2:37:24] video, feel free to like it and subscribe for more  upcoming tutorials. Okay, I'm going to prepare.   Before I get started, I want to really quickly  show you one more thing. There is an affiliate   program with Cling AI, but right now I don't have  it. So I search for clingai.com, I copy this link  

[2:37:40] and now I go to my website ferdykoper.com, I  want to log in. I want to make a redirection to   an affiliate link. So I go to plugins, add new, I  search for redirection and then I click over here,  

[2:38:00] redirection more than 2 million installations  from John Godley, I activate it and now I want to   set up my redirection setup or finish it, start to  set up, continue, finish it up, continue, ready to  

[2:38:20] begin. Now, the source URL, I want people to go to  ferdykoper.com forward slash, so forward slash and   then Cling AI. And when people do that, they will  be redirected to ClingAI.com, but later I can  

[2:38:35] to become an affiliate, I will do that after the  tutorial. So I can, I'll do it after making the   tutorial. So I add the redirection. So when people  go to ferdykoper.com, forward slash, clingai,  

[2:38:53] they will go over here to clingai. And then  now go over here to cling AI. And then now   it is time to start recording. What I will do,  I will turn off all the lights and then I will   show you step by step how my setup works, show you  exactly what I will do, what I will turn on first  

[2:39:08] etc. And then I will start the recording of the  tutorial. I'm excited and I hope you are too.   Hello people, it's very dark over here. I'm  going to show you how I start my recording. It's  

[2:39:21] tutorial time. Within 20 or 30 minutes, I hope to  finish my recording of my first tutorial but first   let me show you what I do. Right now there are no  lights at all. So I have my key light over here,   now you can see me. Then I have my second light,  I'll turn it on. I have a few back lights,  

[2:39:39] let me turn it on. Then I have my Philips U  lights, they give the background a little bit   of color and the back of my computer screen,  so I turn those on. So all my lights are on,  

[2:39:52] you hear that the audio is not good because I'm  using the audio of the camera. I want to use this   microphone over here. I practiced over here.  Also over here. What I want to do now, I want  

[2:40:06] to turn on my computer screen and modules here. I  use ScreenFlow for that. I just click over here,   hit record and if I don't have open ScreenFlow,  I just search for screen flow, then there pops   up something like this and I can hit record and  then it will, as you see, it will record my audio  

[2:40:22] from here and my built-in display. So I click on  record and when I do that, what you will hear is   that the audio will drastically improve. Why? Now  I'm not using the audio of the camera anymore.  

[2:40:36] I'm using the audio of this microphone and I'm  recording my computer screen right now. So now   I want to record the front, right? Right now this  is just for reference. If I turn everything off,  

[2:40:49] this one will still be running. So I will grab  this SD card, I make sure I have enough space   and I go to my camera over there, the Canon R6 and  I make sure I use an iPad as a reference monitor.  

[2:41:08] It's not necessary. I can also just hit record,  but I prefer to do it this way. It will link now   with the camera so I can see what is happening.  So in a minute, I will have good audio, I will  

[2:41:24] have my screen recorded and I will have good video  from the front. So if I hit record, now you see me   from the front. So I put it out of the frame,  I put my drinks in the frame, I put my phone  

[2:41:44] out of the frame, I close this one. Everything is  rolling. This one is also still rolling. How are   you doing? Nice to see you over there. And I will  keep this one rolling because sometimes I turn   off the camera and I still want you to see what  is happening. So it's tutorial time. I'm really  

[2:42:00] excited, but I can understand that when you do  this for the first time, it's super hard. I'm   doing this already, not only for 10 years, but so  much longer. I've been making videos since I can   remember. So I made notes and I'm just going to  follow those notes, intro, create an avatar and  

[2:42:19] chat GPT, okay. So I'm ready to get started  with the first recording and then it's really   going to happen. So this is how I will do it.  I'll just record and if something goes wrong,  

[2:42:31] I record it again. I keep everything rolling and  then afterwards I will edit it and I will show you   how to edit your videos. So the introduction  is how to turn yourself into a 3D animation  

[2:42:43] like this. So let me show you how I would do the  introduction. In this tutorial, I will show you   how you can turn yourself into a 3D animation like  this. I'm going to do it again. In this video,  

[2:42:56] I will show you how you can turn yourself into  a 3D character like this. Let me show you how.   Another one. In this tutorial, I will show you  how, this is what happens when I take a sip. In  

[2:43:12] this tutorial, I will show you step by step how  you can turn yourself into a 3D character like   this, and how you can do that for free. Let me  show you how. What I need to do, I need to clap   because then I can sync. Now there's a peak in my  audio, I can sync that peak with my camera audio,  

[2:43:30] my computer audio which is from this microphone,  so that makes it easier for me. So I want to get   straight to the point. I don't want to blah,  blah, blah, soon subscribe, like, no straight  

[2:43:42] to the point. I need to cough. Yeah. There's also  a peak in the audio. So I'm getting right into it.  

[2:43:59] The first thing we need to do, we need to turn one  of our images into a character. Let's do it again.   The first thing we need to do, we need to turn  our, the first thing we need to do, we need to   turn one of our images into a 3d character. We can  use chat GPT to do that. So I go to chat GPT.com,  

[2:44:17] hit enter, you can sign up for free. What I will  do now, this is included in the free version. I   have two images over here. One is from my studio,  this one, and the other one is from my phone,   which I took five minutes ago. So maybe you don't  have a studio yet, but you just want to create a  

[2:44:33] cool effect. Well, let me show you how you can  use this in order to put yourself into a studio.   But first I want to drag this one over here and I  want to give this a prompt. So I will say, okay,  

[2:44:45] now I'll go to my prompt because I don't know the  prompt anymore. Turn me into a 3d Pixar character,  

[2:44:59] blur the background, show the YouTube  button at the right and a plant at the left.  

[2:45:11] Wow! That looks very cool. So what I can do, I can  download this and I can also download this one.   What we're going to do now, we're going to turn  this image into an animation. So in order to do  

[2:45:23] that, we go to ferdykoper.com forward slash Cling  AI, hit enter and with this tool, you can do so   many cool things with AI and video. It is crazy  and it's developing like crazy. Look at this.  

[2:45:39] So in order to create what we're going to create,  I click on create. So what happened is that since   I already used this tool using a different account  on my other computer, because of the IP address  

[2:45:52] of the Wi-Fi probably, I had to wait 40 minutes  instead of one minute. So I had to wait 40 minutes   and that's discouraging, but I waited for 40  minutes. I already exported a few files. So those   things can happen. There are setbacks and then  the question is, do you continue or do you give  

[2:46:08] up? I continue and I suggest you do the same. So  I will continue with the tutorial as if there was   no 40 minute delay. So let me get back into this.  That always helps. And there it is. I click on it.  

[2:46:47] So that's the way the cookie crumbles. If you  want to learn more about Kling AI, how to work   with that, then follow this tutorial  and then you can learn more and I wish   you the best in your AI journey. My name is  Ferdy and I'll see you next time. Bye-bye.  

[2:47:02] So I finished my recording. So what I do, I start  to record at once again. So I'm recording again   my screen. Now I want to show you what I will do  when I upload a new or I export a new video. So I  

[2:47:14] finished the tutorial, what will I do? I say CMD  S, so I save it. Then I want to go to my finder,   to tutorials. If you don't have the folder, you  can create that one, new folder and I call this  

[2:47:28] one 701. I give every tutorial a name and I  say video to 3d character. Then I'm going to  

[2:47:40] create seven folders. The first one is a video.  I put all my video files in it from my computer   screen and from my camera. The second one is  audio, all the audio files I export. The third  

[2:47:52] one is images. Sometimes I place images in my  tutorials. The fourth one is images. Sometimes   maybe a reference video. Five project files,  that's for my video editor. The sixth one is  

[2:48:07] all my screen flow files and the seventh one is  the finals, when I export the final tutorial,   finals. Okay. So I save this to tutorials, screen  flow, and I say 01, video to character. Okay. Now  

[2:48:35] I want to grab my video fell. So let me get  it. There it is. Now export this. So come on.   E four K four K I go bring it to the tutorials  for our seven Oh one video open exports. Now I  

[2:48:57] go to the finder to video commands. And then I  go to the video fell, the camera fell this one.  

[2:49:17] And then I want to give it the same name as  this one, enter command C and here I paste   it and I say R6 because that's the name of my  camera. And I go back to the folder for videos  

[2:49:32] and I drag it over here. Normally I like to  do this at the end of the day because then   it can take some while to export everything  and to copy everything. And sometimes I'm like,  

[2:49:45] I want to do it immediately to keep the  structure, keep everything organized. That's   the main thing for me, keep things organized. I  never want to lose files or like that I, yeah,   to lose files or like that I lost files. That's  really not cool. If you put a lot of effort in  

[2:50:00] something and you lose it, not cool. So that's why  I keep everything organized and this works like   charm. Shout out to Rob Adams, credit where  credit is due, a videographer for weddings,  

[2:50:13] he told me this 10 years ago, 11 years ago, and  I had to keep this with a lot of structure. So my   video file is copied. So I will do this with  everything and then I will be back with you.  

[2:50:35] So ladies and gentlemen, it is time to edit  our video. If I go to tutorials 701, I have   my video files over here, both the camera videos  as the screen recordings. Okay. So what I will do,  

[2:50:53] I use Adobe Premiere. In order to get it, go  to ferdy.com forward slash Adobe, hit enter.   Not everything I have through ferdy.com is in  the affiliate link, but I like to keep track   of how many people click on the links I have in  my tutorials. So you can start a free trial. If  

[2:51:10] you're going to make sales, it's worth the money.  It is $59.99 per month. But if you're a student or   you have a business, you get some discount. Let's  see if you're a student. If you're a student,  

[2:51:27] you can do this for $20 per month and man,  you get everything. Look at this, Photoshop,   Adobe Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects. You  get everything you need in order to make amazing  

[2:51:39] videos. So you can go for the seven day free  trial. So if you want to, you can create five   videos in the first week and seven days without  having to pay anything. Then you click on continue  

[2:51:51] I have already done this. So when you've done  that, search for Premiere. That's what I will   use and I'll start from scratch so you can see  exactly what I will do. So I click on new project,  

[2:52:10] I go to the folder, choose location and then I  go to tutorials, 701 project files. And there I   should call this one video to 3d character create.  I, by the way, use a Mac. You can also use a PC.  

[2:52:32] Okay. I want to skip this. So I click over here on  skip. Okay. Now I go to my finder to tutorials. I   want to go to 701 and I want to drag audio images.  Those first three folders, I want to drag them in,  

[2:52:50] click on the name. So I have video, audio, images.  Then I create a new folder for after effects,  

[2:53:04] five sequences and that's it. Now I go to video,  I want to make sure that I grab the double click,   double click, the files from my computer screen,  because that's the frame rate I want to have,  

[2:53:20] 60 frames and I drag it over here and then I  will create a sequence. Awesome. Then I have   the sequence over here, I click on name, let me  see. That's fine. So then I go to video again,  

[2:53:43] to the second one, the third one, the  fourth one, all with small capitals,   no capitals. Those are all my screen files. Okay.  Then I want to drag them all a bit to the right,  

[2:54:01] select the last four, drag them to the right,  select the last three, drag them to the right,   the last two, the latest one. Because now I want  to add the R6 files, the video files. First one,  

[2:54:15] holding CTRL, or you know what, I can do it one  by one. So I drag it on top over here. So we   have tracks, first track, second track. Then the  second one, the R6. The third one, R6, the fourth  

[2:54:37] one and the fifth one. What I like to do, I like  to keep things organized that's why I create this.   All the R6 files, all the files with my face on  it, I want to select them, right mouse click,  

[2:54:53] label and you can give them a certain label. I  created my own label, so you can go to Premiere,   think settings, labels, and then you can rename  them and give them another color. So I set orange.  

[2:55:07] Okay. I want to go to Adobe edition. That's  also in the Adobe collection, Adobe edition 2025   and all the files I created with my desktop,  my screen, those I want to drag them over  

[2:55:27] here. This is a bit tricky because depending  on the microphone, depending on the settings,   you can adjust the sounds. So  right now it sounds like this.  

[2:55:51] So I want to make this better. So what I've  done, I've created a template. I always say   last applied rec. When I hear this now, it's so  much more vibrant, the audio is so much better in  

[2:56:09] my opinion. So what I've done, the first effect I  added was dynamic processing. You can take a look   at these numbers, try to rebuild them. I've done  so because I had those settings on my laptop. So  

[2:56:21] I recreate them over here. So that's what you also  can do. So here's a point, here's a point and then   I have the second parametric equalizer. You can  just use the exact numbers, but you can also play  

[2:56:35] around with it until you think like, hey I like  this. The best thing you can do is use headphones   and see how bright, how nice the audio sounds.  Then there's a third one with some other settings  

[2:56:49] and the fourth one, the hard limiter, that means  if the sound is a bit low, it will make it harder.   But if it's too loud, it will make it less loud.  So the audio waves, I will show you what happens.   They will be more on the same level. So if I talk  soft or I talk louder, everything will maintain  

[2:57:06] the same audio. Otherwise, sometimes you're like,  I can't hear you and then the other moment you're   like, whoa, this is too loud. So when you've done  that, you can apply it. Look at this, what happens   to the waves? They all become bigger and more even  like that. Then I say command shift E, I click on  

[2:57:27] browse, I go to tutorials, 701 audio, save it and  then over here, I rename it by getting rid of the   underscore 01. Okay. Second one, last upright,  plight rack. Third one, last upright, plight rack.  

[2:57:48] Fourth one, this is how I roll, this is how I do  it. And then I go to the second one, shift command   E, arrow right, backspace, backspace, backspace,  three, command export, four, export, five,  

[2:58:10] export. Then I go to Premiere, to the Finder, to  Audio, there they are. I drag them all over here   and then I want to replace them with these ones,  the upper ones. They're exactly the same length,  

[2:58:27] like that. If I hit arrow on the keyboard, arrow  down twice or three times, I end up at the second   one and I drag that one over here. Make sure it  snaps. If you don't see that, there's an icon   over here. You need to turn it on. Arrow down,  the third one, the fourth one and the fifth one.  

[2:58:55] Okay. Then I click on the name or I click  on the, let's see, number one should be on   top and then I want to click on the label like  that. I select all those and I direct them to  

[2:59:11] the audio. Okay. Now I want to sync the computer  screen audio from the microphone with my video,   because right now it's not the case. So you see  they're not synced. So I do this manually. So  

[2:59:30] oftentimes I clap so I can sync it because then  there's a high note somewhere. If I cannot find   it, I just take a look at a peak and I make sure  that the blue audio lines up with the green audio.  

[2:59:45] There's a peak over here. So what I can do, I  can drag this to the right, click over here,   click on the plus, plus, plus, drag it to the  right, plus, plus, plus, drag it to the right and  

[2:59:57] then a command or control, right, right. And now  it's exactly matching. Then I get rid of the blue   audio, if that's linked. So if this is selected  and I select this one, I also select this one. So  

[3:00:13] make sure this is turned off, linked selection,  so I can get rid of this one. So now we have the   video and audio in sync and the audio in sync.  So there's the video camera, the computer screen  

[3:00:26] and the audio is all in sync. So we're going to  do it a second time. I click on the orange one,   I hold shift, I click on the blue one and then  I'm going to sync it. There is this one, I bring  

[3:00:40] it over here, zoom in, command left, left, left,  left, left, left, left. Yes. So if I clap, yeah,   it's perfectly in sync. Get rid of the lowest one.  Then I go to the third one, plus plus plus plus,  

[3:00:57] hold, grab the orange one, hold shift, grab the  blue one. You can also make this bigger so you can   see better if it's aligning and you can also play  around a play to hear if it's aligning. So there  

[3:01:14] it is. And then I can say CMD left, CMD right  two times. Awesome. So again, everywhere we have  

[3:01:26] the orange one is the camera, the blue one is the  computer screen and the green one is the audio. So   what I will do now, arrow up, make sure that all  the tracks are turned on here are all blue arrow  

[3:01:42] down, shift commands. Okay. And everything in  front of it, backspace selected arrow down, shift   so everything will be cut from this point  on. Arrow down, arrow down, shift command K,  

[3:02:02] get rid of this. Then I click on the empty area,  there's a white area and if I hit backspace,   it snaps. Arrow down, shift command command  K. A bit of this one, arrow down twice,  

[3:02:16] shift, command K, select it, arrow down,  shift, command K, arrow down twice, shift,   command K. So I know it's a lot, but you will get  better at it, as you see how fast I can do this.  

[3:02:41] So what I see over here, there is 32 minutes  of video and I need to bring this down to a   shorter tutorial. I hope I can make it less  than eight minutes. So arrow up. I know I was  

[3:02:58] also preparing for this tutorial. So let me see  when the tutorial starts. Okay. I already started  

[3:03:11] here. So let's see what I do. Always a command S  that's over here. I have the timeline. I already   I can scroll through it with the mouse clicking  on and then dragging. So I want to search for  

[3:03:24] the beginning. And when I play, I hit space bar.  When I want to play it fast forward, I press L   if I I want it to be even faster, a lot of times  L, but I always do L one time. So play, spacebar,  

[3:03:40] L. And while I'm going through the timeline,  I zoom in and I zoom out so that my head,   this area I call this the head, will always stay  a bit in the center. You don't have to do that,  

[3:03:55] that's something I already have done for 15 years,  so I don't know. It's just a tick. Zoom out. Okay,  

[3:04:11] I can skip this. So if I'm over here, everything  before this can be gone, how can I do that? Using  

[3:04:27] Q, that's it. If not everything snaps, make sure  that all those tracks over here are blue, V1,   V2. So this, uh, what I will do just before the  audio starts over here, I can drag this down,  

[3:04:41] zoom in just before it. So at once the audio  starts like this, I'm going to do it again. So Q,  

[3:05:03] so everything, because the first take was not  good. Okay. When it is done, I do shift five  

[3:05:16] times to the right. One, two, three, four, five,  command shift K. And then I go to the next part.  

[3:05:30] I think that one is better. So just before, Q and  I don't need this one anymore. So I select it,   option delete. So it snaps at once  to the right. Okay. Shift 1, 2, 3, 4,  

[3:05:50] 5. When I am happy with a recording, then I do a  clap and then I can see over here, oh yeah, that's  

[3:06:18] the beginning shift left. 1, 2, 3, 4,  5, command shift K option backspace.   So now you don't see my screen. If I would say  shift command E, well I select the orange one,  

[3:06:35] then you will see my screen because it's beneath,  it's in the track beneath it. What I want to do,   I want people to see me in a circle over here  at the right when people see my screen. So what  

[3:06:47] I will do, I will select all the orange areas,  command C, then I press the home key or arrow up,   click on the plus. Now I lock this one and this  one and I paste it. So I have twice the same  

[3:07:03] row. Then I want to hide the upper one, lock it.  So over here, I want to make this a circle around   me and I put it in the corner so behind me, you  can see the screen. So before there was a really  

[3:07:17] cool effect, it was called circle, but they got  rid of it, but I still got it. So what I will do,   I will help you to get it. So we go to ferdy.com  forward slash circle, hit enter, they will  

[3:07:31] download something. You can keep it, it's safe.  Go to the finder, open it. So there it is. Now   I can open this by double clicking and then over  here, there's the file. I go to effect controls,  

[3:07:50] I want to copy the circle effect, then I go over  here to video to 3d character or the name of your   sequence, click over here and paste it. Oh, now  I can adjust it. So in that way you can get it.  

[3:08:04] I want to make it smaller, make sure I am in the  center. You can scroll a bit to see if you stay   in the center. Okay. I'm happy with this. So now I  need to go to motion, scale, bring it back to 50.  

[3:08:25] So it's a lot smaller. Then I go to the right by  the position. Let me drag this down a bit. I want   to drag this down. Maybe it's quite big. I can  also go to the circle, make the radius smaller  

[3:08:51] and then play around with it like that. I like  to keep the aspect ratio the same. So over here,   it's over here. So maybe a bit higher. Okay. And  now I can hit the tilde key, it's next to the Z  

[3:09:11] and then I see this panel as a whole. Okay. Let's  bring it back. Also bring it up a bit. So what I   want to do, the settings I have over here, here at  the effect controls, the motion, command C, I want  

[3:09:25] to paste them everywhere. So I want to paste them  over here and I want to make a selection of those   four and paste it. Okay. Then I want to go back to  the second one. I want to copy this circle, paste  

[3:09:41] it over here. So it becomes a circle and paste it  over here. So everywhere I have a circle. So now   when I get rid of this, what I can do, if I want  to show myself, I have this one active. If I don't  

[3:09:57] want to show myself, I do a cut and then from  that point on, command shift P, new. So I paste   it and I say, make the aspect ratio 16 by 9, 1920.  And if I want to bring myself back full frame, C,  

[3:10:17] click CMD shift E, pi, and I like that. So let's  continue. So I will go over here, shift 1, 2, 3,  

[3:10:34] 4, 5, command shift K. Get rid of this. So I go  to chat GPT, hold C, want E. Okay. What I will do,  

[3:11:03] both the orange tracks, I'll select them, do  option up, like that. And I want to use after   effects. After effects are really cool effects  that you can use to create special effects. So  

[3:11:16] when I want to use special effects, I bring the  track up. So I know at the end of the tutorial,   when I edit everything, okay, those areas should  be used with after effects because I will do the   after effects later. Why? Because it's called  after effects and not during effects. That's  

[3:11:33] why. I need to turn off my camera because it's  getting too hot. It's also very hot in here. Hey,   I'm on the roll. So I will continue, but without  the face camera. Okay. What I see is that I did  

[3:11:45] not rename the video files. So they're still from  the big affiliate marketing course. I'm making a   course where I show how to create a video. So  there's a lot of overlap with videos. It feels   like inception. So that's why I did not rename  this by accident. So because I dragged this video  

[3:12:00] into a sequence, into a timeline, that's also the  name over here. So I want to change the name to   video to 3d animation or character. Double click.  So I want to continue to do that. So I go to chat  

[3:12:17] GP. When I go to chat GPT, let me make the audio  wave less high. Then I do a right mouse click over   here, delete tracks. I want to delete all the  tracks of audio and video that I don't use, oh,  

[3:12:33] except for those two, I'll also drag them up,  option up, or I select them all and I drag them   up like that. Okay. Now I want to zoom in. So I  go to chat, I say, see based or a cut. Yeah. So  

[3:12:58] I go to check the GPT.com. I do a C over here and  then I select this one option up. So now I know   at the end of the tutorial after the editing, Hey,  there is an area that I need to adjust with after  

[3:13:11] effects. And if your computer is not handling  the two tracks on top of each other, the computer   screen 4k and a 4k video format, then I can turn  the eye on, we turn it off. And then that way my  

[3:13:27] computer has to load less and can work faster.  So I'll continue to show you how I edit my video.   Let's bring this down a bit like that. So I can  make this a bit bigger. Okay. There I go. So I  

[3:14:10] want to zoom in over here and I want to give  this a prompt and I want to use After Effects   for that. Maybe it's not necessary, but After  Effects gives a style that's a bit better than   Premiere and I want to make it better. A lot of  times people ask me, how do you do those cool  

[3:14:25] effects? I'm about to show you. I'm going to give  away everything for free. And until this point,   it has not disappointed me in what I get back from  it. So let's go all in. So I will say, Oh, what I  

[3:14:41] do? There's, there's, I see there's nothing over  here. So I say, come on, shift K until it begins.   And then I Q and I continue. Okay. Now I'll go to  my prompt because I don't know the prompt anymore.  

[3:14:56] That's not part of the tutorial. That's part of  the bigger tutorial where I explain what is going   on. So this should not be in the tutorial of this  tutorial I'm going to create for my AI channel,   but it's for the tutorial of my other channel.  It's maybe a bit confusing. Turn me in. So Q  

[3:15:15] then over here, I lift up shift arrow up because  I want to zoom in for after-effects. If it takes   too long, come on, shift K L L Q character L one  shift K until I start typing star style character.  

[3:15:40] Q turn me into a 3d. All arrogant. Yeah. This all  era can be gone. Well, you added to the same day  

[3:15:53] the same day that you record, sometimes you can  remember it. So that that's going to be handy if   you edit it soon after you record it. Turn me  into a 3D Pixar style character. One shift K,  

[3:16:05] LL, Q, blur the background. Show the YouTube  button at the right and a blank at the left.   Show the back of my computer. round.  I started all over again. I think so.  

[3:16:20] That's what I remember. This is all getting  So I can skip this whole four minutes stuff.  

[3:16:48] Okay. Now I'm missing a lot. So I need to finish  this. The background, show the YouTube button at  

[3:17:06] the right and a plant at the left, show the back  of my computer monitor. Make me super attractive.   Okay. Make the background, make it 16. I'm almost  there. In my editing, I wanted to look like there  

[3:17:21] was no background. Blurry. Make it 16. Perfect.  So after I say enter of a video, so I say, see,  

[3:17:37] click, bring this down. So this whole area  will be created in After Effects. And then   I zoom in and that's a cool effect. Let's see  what will be cooked over here at the GPT. This   is what I will skip. Fast forward. Okay. I like  this one. So that's the first one I also can do  

[3:17:52] prompt. Web account. Okay. So... Web account.  Okay. So... I will zoom in again. What I'll  

[3:18:09] do over here, I'll change this to... Put me into  a YouTube studio about how to make AI tutorials.   So I was able to finish the editing of this  video. I think it took me one and a half hour,  

[3:18:24] maybe an hour. I don't know. I'm doing so many  things, but I've done everything in one day,   the preparation, the recording, the editing. So  now what I will do, I will show you what you can   do with After Effects. So first I do a right mouse  click, delete tracks. So I keep it organized.  

[3:18:42] Okay. So what I will do, I will close. Let me see.  I bring this up one track. I close 4, 3, 1 and A.  

[3:18:55] Then I do an arrow down. Sorry, I also get rid of  the blue thing. So only V2 is blue. Arrow down,   then I go to the first After Effects file. So  what I do, right mouse click, replace with an  

[3:19:08] After Effects composition. It needs to load After  Effects and when you do this for the first time,   it will ask you to save the file. And what I  always do, I go to tutorials, to the project files   and give it the same name, video to character.  Save it. Okay, there I go. Now I will drag this,  

[3:19:30] all the way to the right, not all the way. Then  I bring this to the left. What I will do now,   arrow down twice, one, two, and zoom out a bit,  select this whole area, right mouse click, replace  

[3:19:46] with After Effects composition. Then the next one,  replace with an After Effects composition. The   next one, and if they are next to each other,  I always make them one After Effects file,  

[3:20:00] right mouse click, make a composition, right mouse  click, make a composition, right mouse click,   make I select it because there are two in a row.  Okay. Arrow down, right mouse click. Thanks to  

[3:20:23] video copilot, I learned how to work with After  Effects. Thank you Andrew Kramer, you're my hero.   Right mouse click, replace with After Effects  composition and that's it. So I save the Premiere  

[3:20:37] file, double click over here, I save this one. And  when I have two compositions over here, I always   say command shift C and make it a composition. So  this looks different than a Premiere. So let me  

[3:20:52] show you what I do. And in the beginning, it can  be overwhelming. I do my best to show it to you   really easily. So what I do mostly is zooming  in. So I click over here on the block and on  

[3:21:04] the motion blur, then I hit P of Peter from Peter  on my keyboard and shift and R, Roy. Then I create   a key frame with the composition by clicking here  and clicking here. And then I say shift page down  

[3:21:20] five times or six times, one, two, three, four,  five, six, until I am at a second. Then over here   at the position, the third option, that's the zoom  option. I zoom in and if I hold shift, I zoom in  

[3:21:32] faster. Then at the orientation, the middle one, I  go to minus five. So I get a cool tilt. Then with   my mouse, I click to the right to the area where I  want to be. Okay. Then I say page down, shift one,  

[3:21:50] two, three, four, five, six. And then here at  orientation in the middle, I do arrow down a   few times. 1, 2, 3, 4, not too much. I hit the key  frame of the position. Now I select the first key  

[3:22:06] frame. Oh, right mouse click. I make this a ease,  ease. then I say, I select them both, command   or control C, page down, command and control V.  Then I go to the second area, right mouse click,  

[3:22:25] keyframe assistant, easy ease in, the other one,  right mouse click, easy ease out. What I do,   normally I like to work productively, but when I'm  doing this for a large tutorial, I really watch a  

[3:22:39] movie on my other screen because this is just,  when you get used to it, just doing it. For me,   for a long tutorial, it takes me one and a half  hours. So what I do, this is the animation I   create. You see it scroll, you see nice tilt and  then go back. Okay. When it's done, command S and  

[3:22:58] command or control W, and then I will do the next  one over here. I zoom in, hold space and then I   click this to the center. Then over here, layer,  new adjustment layer. Then over here, I create  

[3:23:15] the use the rectangle tool and I can select  this area and I go to effects, Gaussian blur,  

[3:23:33] command shift C, enter. This one, this one, and  sometimes I can copy it. So I go to project,   to comp 11, copy those two and go to nine, paste  them, U so I can see all the key frames. Then I  

[3:23:52] go to 11 again, latest to command C, close it  over here. I paste it. I think I should not do  

[3:24:07] this. So, okay. There I go. One, two, three, four,  five. What is, oh yeah, I see it. Okay. If it's  

[3:24:20] too short, if the clip is really short, I do one,  two, three. One, two, three. So I have second,   I zoom in again, then I go to this area.  I say three, page down, one, two, three,  

[3:24:36] maybe two, two in value difference. So from three  to five, select this command shift or a shift six,  

[3:24:48] copy paste. Here I do shift seven, shift eight,  but it's because I changed the shortcuts. So easy.   So I went to after effects, edit keyword  shortcuts, and then I search for ease,  

[3:25:08] easy ease in. So I select this one. And then I  said, shift seven and this one shift eight. We   double click and then create it. So come  on W. So let me do this real quick. Pam,  

[3:25:23] pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam,  pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam, pam,   pam, pam, shift on two, three, four, five page  up. I bring it down a bit further, six months,  

[3:25:40] placed, select seven, select eight. That's how  I roll. The script again, so I can go to 11,  

[3:25:53] paste it, U, paste the latest one, drag  it to the right. So I come because it   was at the same place. Okay. Close this  one. Close this 6. Zoom in, middle 5,  

[3:26:16] paste down 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, paste 7.  Okay, that's it. So now when I go to,  

[3:26:34] let me save it. When I go to After Effects  or to Premiere, everywhere it's pink,   there's an After Effects. So you see me  over here and then you see that I zoom in.  

[3:26:49] I love it. So we're almost there. What we need  to add is some cool animations like swooshes. We   need to add some music in the beginning, maybe  a subscribe button so people can subscribe,   like an invitation and then we're going to export  it. I'm going to do that tomorrow. Looking forward  

[3:27:05] to it. Thank you for watching this video and good  luck making amazing tutorials. It's a new day and   it's time to continue with the tutorial. I'm so  excited about everything I'm going to record today   for you. So the first thing I want to do today, I  want to clean up my Premiere file. So over here,  

[3:27:24] all those files you see over here are After  Effects files, those pink ones or red ones. So   I select the first one, I hold shift, I select the  last one and I drag it here in the after effects   folder and I close it and I go to the wave files  and bring them to audio and this one to video and  

[3:27:45] the work files also to video. I want this to be  below, so let me see how I can do that. Yeah,   that's how you can do it. One, two, three, four,  five, and then the current sequence over here. So  

[3:27:58] that's the first thing I wanted to do. Now I want  to spice up our video a bit. I think it's really   cool with our face over here, the animations, the  audio is good. The video is good. What I want to  

[3:28:10] do now, I want to spice it up with some swooshes.  So over here for free, the first thing we need to   do, we need to do for free. So I want to have a  swoosh over here. What I do for every new chapter,  

[3:28:30] I make a mark using one or M and then over here,  if I want to go to the next mark, I say shift M   and then I go over here right, I double click,  I wait till I see over here that it's imported.  

[3:29:08] It's imported. Okay. Now I zoom out, minus, minus,  minus and now look at this. For free. The first   thing we need to do, don't you think that's cool?  For free. The first thing we need to do, so again,  

[3:29:21] shift M dot com, hit shift M. I think there's  no, it's not necessary anymore to do it. Maybe at   the end. End result. In this tutorial, I'll show  you how to do it for free. So yes, so over here,  

[3:29:43] I want to do it also. Plus, plus, plus, plus. Warp  right. Okay. But you don't have this tool. So in  

[3:29:55] order to get it, do that for free. So that's okay.  I go to Google Chrome and I search for ferdy.com   forward slash V H video. Hi. If I hit enter and I  will be redirected to Envato markets. Let me see.  

[3:30:17] I want to go to the video area and then I want  to search for swoosh or transitions, transitions,   transition pack. I think it's this one, this  from Envato. Okay. I will scroll down. This one,  

[3:30:36] $69. So it's up to you if you want to buy this.  You have to buy it only once. Look at this,   28,000 sales. Look what this guy made. Calculator,  let's say 28,000 times 69. Maybe I should make a  

[3:30:55] tutorial on how to, it's $2 million on how to make  a tool or software. I use this, I love it. So if   you want to buy this, click over here, add to  the cart, keep browsing. The second thing I want,  

[3:31:13] I want to have a subscribe thing. So what I do, if  I ask for people to subscribe, I go to my finder,  

[3:31:26] tutorials, misc, and I go for a subscribe MOV. If  I drag it over here, look at this, what happens?   How to work with that, then follow this tutorial  and then you can learn more and I wish you the  

[3:31:41] best in your AI journey. My name is Ferdy, really  nice animation. I just drag it wherever I want.   So I can also do that halfway through the video,  like, Hey, subscribe. I can drag it. It would be  

[3:31:54] better if I would take a look where I place them.  So if I do something really nice, then after that,   like, hey, maybe this is the right moment  for the subscribe thing. So there it is. I  

[3:32:07] click on play. And then the third thing, oh first  let's search for that. So I search for subscribe  

[3:32:19] animation. Yeah those things for instance. How  about this Envato elements again? That's also   cool. That is a subscription and then you  can use everything that's in it. Millions  

[3:32:35] of files. So this could be good enough. Yeah,  this one, you see the one a lot. Let me see.  

[3:32:49] Something like that. I like it to be, I don't  like this. It's totally not in the would be  

[3:33:22] great. So you can buy this or add it to the cart,  add it to the cart. Is it added to the cart? Yes.   Keep browsing. One more thing. I want to have a  song in my video. So I have a song. I think it's  

[3:33:43] called the channel song. See, where is it? Channel  song. Okay. What I need to do, I need to drag it   all the way down. Okay. Then I bring the audio  gain to minus 20. Let me see. Let's start there.  

[3:34:09] Maybe audio gain, set it to minus 15. Let's see  what happens. I'll show you how to turn yourself   into an animation like this. Let me show you how  you can do that for free. The first thing we need  

[3:34:23] to do, we need to turn one of our images into a 3d  character. We can use chat. Okay. What I can do,   I can unlock this and I can mute my audio, hit the  tilde key, bring this down, zoom in. Okay. From  

[3:34:47] that point on, the new higher wave, I want to give  it a nice fade, so I also search over here. Yes.  

[3:35:02] So also here, see, click, remove this and bring  this all the way here, zoom in. So let's see   if there's a fluid transition. Not too fluid. So  what I will do, I make this blue A4, arrow down,  

[3:35:24] command shift D, then I make it a bit smaller.  Listen to this. Awesome. So I have a small  

[3:35:43] intro. So now everything together, arrow up or  page up. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to   turn yourself into an animation like this. Let me  show you how you can do that for free. The first  

[3:35:55] thing we need to do, we need to turn one of our  images into a 3d character. We can use chat GPT   to do that. And to be honest, I think after the  introduction, the audio can be gone. So I will   get rid of this. Not only use this one in this  store, I'll show you how to turn yourself into an  

[3:36:12] animation like this. Let me show you how you can  do that for free. The first thing we need to do,   we need to turn one of our images into a three. I  love it. Channel song goes to audio. So in order  

[3:36:25] to get a channel song, we go to audio and then all  items are music, popular items. And I can listen.  

[3:37:01] I understand why this is the most popular one.  So you can click on add to cart, add to the cart,   go to the checkout. But now, we have only one  thing in the shopping cart, so we need to But now,  

[3:37:15] we have only one thing in the shopping cart, so we  need to go back to video. There I have two things   and I want to go to the checkout. I can continue.  And then you can pay with PayPal or credit card  

[3:37:32] or other ways. Then you'll download those,  unzip them, then you drag them into Premiere,   just like I did with the subscribe thing and with  the check thing. And the seamless transitions is  

[3:37:44] something that needs to be installed, but there  are really clear instructions on how to do that.   So now we've spiced up our video with a few  things, with a subscribe button now and there, now   and then, or here and there, with some transitions  and with some music. And the great thing is with  

[3:38:01] the transition, there's also sound. That's for  free. The first, you should see over here. So,   um, I'm happy. So we're going to the next part  of the tutorial. We're going to export the video  

[3:38:20] and in order to do that, we click on command, so  while there's a blue line, file, export media,  

[3:38:41] then I go to presets and I want  to go for YouTube high quality,   YouTube ultra HD. That's it. So the entire  source, then I click over here on location,  

[3:38:58] I go to tutorials, 701 finals, and then give  this a good title because that's also something   that YouTube takes a look at. So if I would go to  YouTube and I search for, turn your video into a  

[3:39:18] 3d animated character or animation. Let's see what  pops up first. How to create a full animated? No.  

[3:39:38] I could say create a 3D avatar for free or create  your own. It's about what people are searching   for. So what will people search for? Create your  own 3d avatar for free using AI. Everything with  

[3:39:57] AI is super hot and interesting. Now, since  you have premier pro, you also have the media   what I prefer because then I see the progress  of where I am in encoding the tutorial or in  

[3:40:12] exporting the tutorial. So there it goes. I love  the whole Adobe creative suite. Everything works   together. It works with Photoshop illustrator in  design, even though I don't use in design only  

[3:40:25] now and then wanting to put things together for  PDF. So ready? I click on play. And I think since   the video that's 10 minutes, it will take also 10  minutes. So congratulations. If you follow along  

[3:40:41] and you did all the steps I said, then that means  that you're exporting your first video right now.   I hope you can appreciate it. If you do so, please  like the video, give a comment to appreciate it.  

[3:40:53] Or if you have any questions, let me know. I will  be back with you when the export is finished.   Right now, what I see is that it's taking longer,  22 minutes, 23. That's because the after effects  

[3:41:05] use, I use motion blur in that and that will slow  down the export like crazy. If it's up to me,   I export long tutorials. For instance, this one  I'm recording right now is probably six hours,   maybe longer, I don't know. But that export will  take a whole day, so I prefer to export at night  

[3:41:20] when I stop working. But when the video is 10  minutes, I'm like, okay, let's go for it. What   also makes it really longer is that I use myself  in the video, as you see over here with the round   thing. So that's also what makes it slower. But  at the end of the day, it's all adding up to  

[3:41:37] the quality of the video. I'm really excited to  upload this today. I hope people will see it and   think like, hey, I want to subscribe to this. So  I've also seen a lot of AI videos that I'm like,   there's so much you can do with AI. I have this  YouTube channel already, but if I would start  

[3:41:53] over from scratch, I would give this my all. I  would go all in and I know that in six months,   I can do this for a living if I go all in. Maybe  I can combine it a bit because I really like AI   and explaining things to other people and in the  same way, make money with it. Maybe I can combine  

[3:42:08] it with my current YouTube channel. I don't  know yet, but for now, I stopped the recording   and I will be back with you when the recording is  finished. While our video is exported, we can also   export the audio and I will tell you why I will do  that because we're going to create subtitles and I  

[3:42:22] have a tool that will help you to do that. You can  do that with YouTube if you want to, but you can   also do that using a tool that is really cool and  helps you to get really good subtitles. So it's  

[3:42:35] not mandatory, but I always do this. What I will  do, I will mute all the sounds that are not from   my audio. So I don't hear the music anymore. Then  I say command M again or export. And this time I  

[3:42:48] want to use the format MP3. I want to go to audio  and I want to go for the best quality. I go to   the location and I say the video to 3d animation.  Okay. Then instead of going, sending it to media  

[3:43:07] coder, I can export it at once and it will take  probably five seconds. Now I go to the internet   to ferdy.com forward slash ko-ka-to. And now we  can sign up or we can get started for free. No  

[3:43:24] credit card required. Then you need to create an  account with your email address or password. I   already have that. So I click on login, continue.  I use this for every single video I create. Now,   I go to the finder, to tutorials or let's  see, 701 finals audio. I drag it over here.  

[3:43:44] It will be uploaded. Now I can view the files  and in no time, the transcoding will be done   and I have amazing subtitles. The great thing  is I can use those subtitles to use chat GPT  

[3:44:02] to create a beautiful description for my YouTube  video or create the text for my YouTube video or   create a blog post based on what I cover in the  tutorial. So that's also really great advantage   of using this method, but at the other hand,  you can also do that with the subtitles that  

[3:44:17] are created by YouTube. So again, it's not  mandatory, but as you know, probably by now,   I want to use the best tools, the best cameras,  the best lighting, and this is, in my opinion,   the best tool. Look at this to create the best  subtitles. In this tutorial, I'll show you how  

[3:44:32] to turn yourself into an animation like this. I  almost never see an error. The only thing is when   I export it, let me export it as a txt, I check  nothing, export. The only thing I have to do,  

[3:44:50] let me click on it. I need to go to edit, find  and replace and everywhere there are two spaces,   I need to replace it with one. Add some 80 places,  all and then the first one I get rid of the space.  

[3:45:08] Okay. Let me save it for now. Now later I can  use it in YouTube. So now we also have beautiful   transcriptions. So as you see over here, our video  is finished the export. So I go to tutorials,  

[3:45:27] the final folder over here, this store,  I'll show you how to turn yourself into   an animation like this. Let me show you how  you can do that an animation like this. Let   I also have the audio. So ladies and  gentlemen, it is time to put our video  

[3:45:45] on YouTube. And in order to do that, we need to  have a Gmail account. If you don't have one yet,   let me show you how to get one. So in order to do  it, we go to accounts. You know what? I'll use an   incognito window. That is a window as if you're  never, if you're a never logged in yet. So your  

[3:46:01] new incognito window, then I go to gmail.com  and I can sign in or continue to Gmail. Well,   I want to create an account. So I click over  here or my personal use or worker business. I  

[3:46:18] say personal use. My first name is 30. I lost name  is optional. So I leave them at what my first name   next I'm from June, the 28th, 1986, really 30.  Thank you. Yes. I am a male. I want to create

[3:47:58] turn off and turn off. Okay. Now I want to go  to YouTube and create a YouTube account. So,  

[3:48:16] ask me in a week, here's my account Ferdy Korper  AI. Now I want to create a channel and the name,   I want it to be Ferdy Korper. It's both available,  I want to select a picture from my computer. I'll

[3:48:50] we have our own YouTube channel. There you go. It  can take some while, take a while before the app   becomes a picture or just to make things sure, I  can click over here again, continue. There it is.  

[3:49:04] So for now, I want to create a video, upload my  video. So what I will do, I will click on create,   upload videos, select files. Then I want to go to  tutorials 701 finals. I want to upload this video.  

[3:49:24] Since I already have a YouTube channel, I want to  have my second YouTube channel in the same account   as the first one. So I showed you how to create  it from scratch. Now I will create a new one,   a second channel. Let's see if ferdy.ai is still  available. Ferdy.ai, create channel, awesome. I  

[3:49:42] click over here to see if that's the same thing  that my picture will be added automatically.   Yes. So it's time to upload my first video. I  click on create, upload videos, select files,  

[3:49:59] then I go to tutorials, 701, finals and there  it is. 2.81 megabytes or gigabytes, so it can   take a while. My internet connection is not that  fast over here, but it is what it is. 12 minutes,  

[3:50:15] that's doable. But in the meantime, we can create  a title. So create your own 3d avatar for free   using AI. And now our subtitles come into place.  By the way, what you see over here is vidIQ,  

[3:50:29] how I create, how I made a three day, maybe  that's even better. So I get suggestions from   vidIQ. If you want to learn more, you can go to  ferdy.com forward slash vidIQ. That's the tool  

[3:50:46] I do not suggest you get it. You can get the free  version right now, but first it's time to get our   content out there. So what I will do, I will go  to chat GPT, remember we created subtitles. So I  

[3:51:04] copy this and I say, give me a perfect converting  YouTube video description based on the subtitles  

[3:51:19] of the video below. Okay. So that's the  description that I will place over here.  

[3:51:36] No studio, no problem. Really nice. So I copy  this, paste it. This is so cool. Then I want to  

[3:51:50] have three hashtags, AI video, AI 3d character or  3 I say over here, based on the information above,  

[3:52:27] give me max 500 characters of YouTube video  text related to the information above. I already   said that but hey, just in case. So now I get a  different format. Look at this. Copy and it says  

[3:52:48] Pixar style animation, chat GPT tutorial, Kling  AI. So I just paste those over here at the text.  

[3:53:00] Over here, I have to say it's not made for kids.  It's made for kids. That's what I mean. No, no,   it's for adults. Playlist, I create a new playlist  and I call this one AI tutorials, create done.  

[3:53:26] I should upload a thumbnail. I'm going to talk  about it in a minute, I click on next, subtitles   that will be activated when we have confirmed  our accounts. So right now it's okay. Checks,  

[3:53:43] we are checking things and then I can schedule  this PM. Schedule. Okay. It needs eight minutes  

[3:54:04] yet to upload the video because my internet  connection is really slow. I go to content,   so there it goes and now it's time to create a  thumbnail. Let me show you, I go to Photoshop,  

[3:54:21] that's my favorite way and we can make it really  simple. What I can do? I can go to my tutorial,   I can go to this one, images, are  they here? Let me go to downloads,  

[3:54:40] this one and this one. I copy those, go to  tutorials, images and I say any or caret,  

[3:55:03] zero one, zero two. So I can do a few things. I  can do something like this and then a big text,  

[3:55:40] create this for free. Command A, I use Avenir as a  font. I'll make it bigger. Now what I like to do,  

[3:56:00] maybe there's a better way, but I like to drag  a selection, no, no, no, no. I like to go over   here to rectangle, drag it over here, the bigger,  okay. And then I go to the text over here, I make  

[3:56:22] it bigger and I change the line height. So I bring  it up and then let me see. I click over here,  

[3:56:38] I make sure it cannot go anywhere anymore so I  lock it. So I can drag this one here, then it a  

[3:56:51] bit bigger. Okay. I can change the color, make  it stand out. So what I do now, I hold option,  

[3:57:09] hold shift and I drag it down again and again.  Then I click over here, edit, transform, scale,  

[3:57:29] click over here, transform, scale, bring it to the  left and then this one, and this is a matter of  

[3:57:41] trying. What is converting better? I have a tool  that can do split testing, I love that. So you can   always optimize your logos. I can also bring it to  the right a bit like that, have a dark background.  

[3:57:57] Let's say, let's grab a color, this one  for instance, and I paste it here. Okay,   and then what I want to do with this over here,  I want to create a mask by clicking here. Then  

[3:58:14] I want to go to the brush tool, to black, right  bracket so I make it bigger. I click over here,   I make the hardness really soft. I hold shift  and I drag it down, up and down like that. Then  

[3:58:32] I go to the rectangle, hold shift, let me get rid  of this text block, try to unlock it. Hold shift,   rectangle one, shift right, right, right. And  this whole area can That's great how it is.  

[3:58:58] Okay then I want to do something with  this picture. Okay. So I click over here,   then I go to single adjustments here at  adjustments and I want to go for curves,  

[3:59:10] layer over here. Make it pop. Okay. And then I  want to go over here, lighter or make a gradient  

[3:59:41] by doing this. Blending options, gradient from  left to right and then the first color is this   one. And the second color, which can be here, is  this one. Let me see. Okay. So that pops a bit  

[4:00:08] more and sometimes what is working is to create  a line. So I right mouse click, blending options,   stroke at the inside. Does it work? It only  works when you have content over here. So I  

[4:00:25] create something with this tool, I click over here  and then I go to the fill and I get rid of it.   And now I can use the same red 20 or 25. Okay.  Create this for free. Okay. Then I do file,  

[4:00:50] export, save for web, 100% totally fine, save it.  I call this one, create this animation for free.  

[4:01:09] Okay. Now I click over here, details, scroll down,  upload files, unlock more on YouTube to add custom   thumbnails, verify your phone number. So I click  on verify, text me the verification, confirmation,  

[4:01:30] submit. You can close this window and go  back. Okay. So now I can upload a thumbnail,  

[4:01:43] refresh the page, upload files tutorial, or I go  to my desktop. There it is. And I click on save.  

[4:02:00] Now in 49 minutes or 39 minutes, my video will be  published. So let me continue from this point on   because that camera is overheating. So I will use  this camera instead. So I want to show you that  

[4:02:17] there are no restrictions. And if I take a look  over here, it's not live yet in this, but I can   see it's in HD already. And it's also in full four  K. So full resolution. So my video is finished.  

[4:02:31] Now I want to play some, um or subtitles. So let  me show you, I can go over here at subtitles,   set a language. Well, by default it is English.  Let's see English. I do English United States. No,  

[4:02:52] I just do English. Make this default language  for my channel. Okay. Well then there's automatic   captions. I want to upload my own captions.  So I click over here, subtitles, English video  

[4:03:04] language, click over here and then I can go to  auto sync. Then I want to go to my text file, copy   it and paste it and look at this. Automatically,  I used to pay a lot of money for people to do this  

[4:03:19] manually and now it's all done the right way.  Okay. The only thing I want to do, I want to   check the links I use. So if I say to people go  to Ferdy Korper, I want it to go to Ferdy Korper.  

[4:03:36] Ferdy Korper watch slash cling AI, chat GPT. I  click on publish and it can be handy if you also  

[4:03:58] give different subtitles. So the automatic one,  I remove it. I can add another language. Well,   if you get more statistics, you see which people  watch your videos the most. So I could say  

[4:04:10] Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Dutch, and then I can  click on Dutch, auto translate by Google, Hindi,  

[4:04:36] auto-translate, publish. And as soon as somebody  said in the comments, says, do you want to, okay,   also add this language. I always do that for the  upcoming videos because then I want to help people   to follow my videos. Auto-translate, and then it's  almost time that we're going to publish this. Auto  

[4:04:58] translate, publish. Okay. I go back, everything is  looking great. So what I will do, I will click on  

[4:05:13] this on details, and then I want to scroll down,  change the visibility from schedule to public,  

[4:05:25] done. And now I want to save it. And that means  that we are live. Our first video is live. So in  

[4:05:37] this tutorial, I'll show you how to turn yourself  into an animation like this. Let me show you how   you can do that for free. The first thing we need  to do, we need to turn one of our images into a   3d character. We can use chat GPT to do that. So  I go to chat GPT.com hit enter. You can sign up  

[4:05:54] for free. What I will do now, this thing. So let  me tell you what happened. I uploaded the video,  

[4:06:06] but before I uploaded the video, I exported  the video, but then only the audio. And when   I exported the audio, I turned off all the other  layers. So if I go to the video, the background   music, the swooshes, they were all turned  off. So after I uploaded the video to YouTube,  

[4:06:22] I had to export it again, wait for an hour. I  uploaded it again. Now it's an hour later and   those are things that are things that just happen  sometimes. Yeah. So I could think, you know what,  

[4:06:34] I'll just upload it and publish it, but then it's  not, it takes an hour and now for the rest of my   life, this will be my first video that I upload  on this YouTube channel and I can feel good about  

[4:06:47] it instead of, oh that was the video that was  not perfectly. So that's what I wanted to share   with you that sometimes things go like that.  So what's happening now in four minutes, the  

[4:06:59] video will go live. So what I will do, I will use  all my resources, all my social media channels to   share this video with people. So I have an email  list, I have my Instagram, I have my Facebook,  

[4:07:14] I have LinkedIn and I'll do my best to make people  watch. So the first people start to watch, so the   statistics can start and YouTube can see how well  my video is doing and decide if it will share this  

[4:07:27] video with more people. The first thing I want to  do, I want to click over here. Let me see. I have   four minutes left. Okay. So what I will do, I'll  go create a new broadcast based on the information  

[4:07:49] above. I want to tell my email list that I made  my first video for a, let's see what it comes up  

[4:08:02] with. Okay. I'll just write it myself and let's,  um, Hey, I make it better. Hey, I say, make this  

[4:08:18] text better, it's my most used prompt, the video  is live. So let's see. So let me copy this.  

[4:09:13] people. Continue, send broadcast.  Then I want to go to chat.gpt,  

[4:09:36] Copy, paste. Also use it for Facebook.  

[4:10:02] Then I go to the video again, share, copy. So the  game has begun. When I have my first subscriber,  

[4:10:17] I will celebrate. When I have my first view, I  will celebrate. Okay. Let me see if it pops up.  

[4:10:29] Next post, then I go to LinkedIn,   paste it. There's the preview post. Okay.  So I place it over here. no, no, no, no, no,  

[4:10:59] it's posting. So I sent an email, I posted on  Facebook and posted on LinkedIn. And I can also   post on social social media, like Instagram. So  now we have published something and it is online.  

[4:11:19] Now the journey can start and we should not stop  here. Of course we need to continue. I already   have an ID for a second video. So not a lot of  views yet, but let's see how it will go. I have  

[4:11:35] the idea that everything is quite dark over here.  So maybe I should lighten it up for my next video   and so I can keep on improving. So we have done  so many things already. Congratulations with that.  

[4:11:51] It's now a day later. Let me refresh this  studio page from YouTube. What I see 578 views,   11 comments, a lot of likes, but what I need to do  now, if I go to my website ferdykoper.com to the  

[4:12:08] backend and I go to tools, redirection, I see  that four people already clicked on Cling AI,   but I have no affiliate link yet. So let me show  you how to apply to become an affiliate. So I go  

[4:12:20] to clingai.com. The first step, this first place  I always look is on the homepage, all the way   down program, become a cling AI affiliate. Apply  now. I need to sign up. Really important to read  

[4:12:42] this. It is, they with impact. This is different  for every single program you want to apply for.  

[4:13:09] So I just go through these steps, let me see which  one should I take, I don't know, I'll do this one.   I agree, I approve the contract. Okay. So  now over here, when I will be approved,  

[4:13:34] I can create a link by selecting Cling AI,  then I grab this link, then I go to my website,   edit this, paste it and then when people  buy something through my affiliate link,  

[4:13:50] through my tutorials which I created for free  on YouTube. I make money. So as I said before,   this is different for every single affiliate  program. So that's why I just went through it.  

[4:14:02] I cannot explain how it will work with your  affiliate program, but when I'm accepted,   I get an email and then I will change this  redirection link and I can start to make   money. Now, I want to turn my video into a blog  post. I want to share my video on my website and  

[4:14:23] I want to have a blog post below that. So in order  to do that, I click over here and go to the video,   copy that link, then I go to my website, to post,  add post, I need to give this a title. Let me ask  

[4:14:43] for chat GPT's help. I go to post based on  the transcription of a YouTube video below.  

[4:15:04] Look at this. And since we are the owner of this  video, this is perfectly fine to use AI to write   a blog post for you. How to turn yourself into a  3d character for free, step by step tutorial. So  

[4:15:19] I can grab this copy, okay. What I could say if I  want to, I could say rewrite it and use Kling AI  

[4:15:40] and 3d animated character a few times as keyword  in the tutorial, in the blog post. Absolutely.  

[4:15:59] So awesome. Let's use cling AI as keyword. So I  do it again and here's the blog post. I want to  

[4:16:12] copy this whole thing. I love it. I love it. Copy,  copy. I paste it here. Then I need to see if the   format is okay. Change it to a paragraph. It looks  really good. So if I publish it and I go to the  

[4:16:53] homepage, let's close this for now. I go to the  website, I scroll down, I see this and if I click   on it, it looks like this. Well let's spice this  up because this can be done better. What I will  

[4:17:07] do, I will go to tinypng.com, drop your images  here, then I go to the desktop and I grab this   image, which is now 1.4 megabytes. I want to make  it smaller. We want to maintain a fast website. So  

[4:17:25] it will be optimized, 263 kilobytes. I download  it, I already have it over here. So now I want   to go to the blog post by clicking here, edit  the post, set a featured image, upload files,  

[4:17:39] select files, then I go to my downloads and I grab  this one. Then I get rid over here of the dashes.  

[4:17:53] What I should have done or what I will do, I  delete this. I will copy this. I'll go to my  

[4:18:05] downloads and rename it because I can be found  based on the images. So if people search for   Cling AI tutorial, sometimes Google shows images  and then if you have not renamed them correctly,  

[4:18:23] this will not appear over here in the  search results. If your image is called   0001, it will not be shown over here.  But if your image has a keyword in it,   then it can be found in the search results. So  upload files and then we have this beautiful  

[4:18:42] image. I copied a title with beautiful text. I  paste it in the alt text and in the description,   set the featured image. Okay. Then I want to  scroll down, go to Yoast and I will use cling AI  

[4:19:01] as the phrase I want over here to the post, go to  categories on to create a category. AI tutorials,  

[4:19:27] tutorials, enter. Okay. I can also have a  new category, Cling AI. I can also have a   subcategory. So I can have AI tools and then  as a subcategory Cling AI, but for now it  

[4:19:58] 3d character movie to animation. So now I  can also be found based on text or I can,   the structure of my website will be quite easy  when you use categories. So if I click over here,  

[4:20:15] I go to the website, I go to the blog post, then I  see I use those two categories. If I click on this   category, I'll see all the blog posts that  have this category and in that way, people  

[4:20:29] can navigate through the website more easily.  Okay. I'll get rid of blog posts too. Edit post,   move to the trash or I go to the backend to post,  select those two, bulk actions, move to the trash,  

[4:20:46] apply. I go to the trash and then I click on empty  the trash. So now if I go to the homepage, I have   only one blog post with a tutorial in it. No, the  tutorial is not YouTube studio, content, view the  

[4:21:26] content. Okay. I paste it here. There you go. What  we can do now, we can add images and we can do  

[4:21:41] that based on Adobe Premiere. So what I will do,  I will get rid of my face like that. Okay. post.  

[4:21:55] You can do it all for free. So I will grab, um,  I can go to tutorials, um, images, character one,  

[4:22:12] and let me see, I can go to Premiere. So I  can do two things. I can go to the desktop,  

[4:22:31] open this in Photoshop, then I  open the character I created.  

[4:22:44] Okay. Then over here, I like to work with aspect  ratio of 16 by nine. If you go to Google, it can  

[4:23:00] be anything. So this is more square. You see a lot  of 16 by nine. So that's what I also want to do.   So what I'll do, I will, let me see, edit.  Let me uncheck this. Then I go to edit,  

[4:23:18] transform, scale. Let's see how we can do this.  

[4:23:40] Copy. You know what I will make? Okay. I will make  this one smaller and I will make sure they have   the same size. They don't have to have the same  size. What I will do, I'll just place them next  

[4:24:01] to each other, make this one smaller. Okay. And  then I will make a selection. You cannot be ranked  

[4:24:47] for text in an image at this moment. Then I say  CMD option, shift S or over here, file, export,   save for web. And then also this should have a  name that people can search for. So I say video  

[4:25:12] to 3d character animation. Okay. Then I'm going to  create a second one. And I want to go to tiny PNG,  

[4:25:30] drop those two images because they're 1.4 and 1.5  megabytes. And this is also, I will take quite   some time for this because I want it to be a great  experience for the viewer to read this blog post.  

[4:25:50] So in the store, I'll walk you through the studio,  no problem. Okay. So here I'll say forward slash   image, upload, then I go to the downloads, this  one, and then I can have an alternative text. I  

[4:26:48] turn your photo into an animated character with  chat GPT. Okay. So what I can do, I can go to  

[4:27:29] Okay. I'll make a picture by clicking  here. Okay. And I want to open  

[4:28:02] PNG, to the desktop, I drag it over  here. Then I go to my blog post,  

[4:28:16] image. as I said in the beginning of the  tutorial, it's hard work. This takes time.   I'm taking the time because in the long run, I  know it can make you a lot of money. What you   put in it is what you get out of it. download the  image, upload downloads. There you go. Anyway,  

[4:28:48] it would cling. And then I can share the result  over here, forward slash video, upload, open it.  

[4:29:11] Okay. I save it and that ladies and gentlemen is  how you can create a blog post. So I go to it,   people can watch the video from here. And the  great thing is that if they watch the tutorial  

[4:29:23] from your website, then it will also count as time  that people are on your website which will rank   your website better. So a few images, nice example  and then people can leave a comment. And over  

[4:29:40] here, I can have an affiliate downloads, Cling AI  and then link it to https://ferdykorper.com.com.au  

[4:30:13] in a new tab. Update. So now if I go to the  website and I go to the blog post and people   start reading, they're like, okay, interesting.  I want to use it. I click over here and then my  

[4:30:29] affiliate link will be used. And that is the way  the cookie crumbles. Remember that I told you that  

[4:30:42] when people watch two of your videos on YouTube,  you will be in their algorithm. So your videos   will pop up as a suggestion on their YouTube  channel. That is for me, the main reason why I   create shorts. I have to say, I do not focus a lot  on making shorts, but I know if you get a short,  

[4:30:59] create a short that will go viral, it can  tremendously impact your channel and that   will also reach your boost for other tutorials.  So I have tutorials, not short form but long form   tutorials that will generate me the money but with  the short form, I can grow my audience. So that's  

[4:31:16] I want to do when I want to create shorts, I want  to do market research. So I go to YouTube,8, a  

[4:31:40] half a million. So if I watch this, well, that was  actually a very bad short. It did not say a lot.   Let's take a look at the comments. Okay. So let's  go back. What I can do, I heard that AI voice,  

[4:32:04] sometimes I think, hey, how can you create  that? So I can search for how to create that   AI voice because everybody should know which  one it is. I want to get the viral AI voice,  

[4:32:19] 400,000 views. Okay. I go to my notes. First short  AI voice 11 labs.com, I think, tens of thousands  

[4:32:54] of credits. Choose Adam, voice. Wow. The short is  like 15 seconds. So 400,000 views. And what you,  

[4:33:27] the great thing is you can click over here and  then go to a, then you go to a long form tutorial.   So I can create a short of every tutorial I  make. So I made a tutorial on how to do the   3d character animation. I can make a video about  that or about this voice. Let's go with the one  

[4:33:42] that can refer to my longer tutorials. So that  will be a 3d character animation. That's how I   do research. Just go to YouTube. So what I will do  now, I will start talking about the text I want to  

[4:33:57] say in my script. I can go 3D animation. Then I  can right by script and make the script better.  

[4:34:28] Make this script for short, better. So I  can start the script. So I start typing,  

[4:34:40] maybe I will fast forward. Well, there it is. So  what I want to do, I want to show my face in the  

[4:35:02] beginning of the video and then I want to overlap  that with the 3D character I'm going to create.   And after that, I'm just going to read what it  says in a really nice way. Then I'm going to cut   the audio into a maximum of 60 seconds short,  and then I'm going to add a video files and I  

[4:35:18] will show you how I will do that. So I'm going  to start with the video right away. Want to turn   yourself into a 3D character like this? Want  to turn yourself into a 3D character like this,  

[4:35:30] or like this one, or something else. Here's how to  do it quickly. Here's how to do it quick and easy.  

[4:35:46] I'll put it all into computer and then I  will be back with you. So what I've done,   I've imported all the files, the camera file,  the computer screen file and the audio. I put  

[4:36:01] it all in one place. Actually, I can get rid of  the screen file because I did not record anything   on the screen. So what I want to do now, I want  to change the aspect ratio. Right now it's 16 by   9. I want to make it a format for a short. So I go  to sequence, sequence settings and I bring this,  

[4:36:18] the frame size to 1080, the horizontal size to  1920. I'm aware that I'm cropping the video and   then I go to the beginning, select this, then  I go to the effect controls. I bring this down,  

[4:36:34] the scale, until I see the edge and then I bring  it a little bit to the left. So let the left.  

[4:36:56] Want to turn yourself into a... So now I will,  it's a two minute, 43 second video. I need to   bring it under a minute. So I will fast forward  and then I will be back with you. Look at this,  

[4:37:12] 48 seconds. So I have this whole video, it's  in 48 seconds. So now I need to add images,   the video files or the screen files on  the places where I talk about things. So   if I say go to chat GPT, I should show go to  chat GPT. So what I will do, I'll just walk,  

[4:37:30] go through the video and then start adding things.  And I will show you how to do it. And after that,   I will ask for it again. Want to turn  yourself into a 3d character like this?  

[4:37:42] I make a mark animation, animated, animated  character. One, one to turn yourself into a  

[4:37:54] 3d character, like to this or like this three,  this one, or something for one. So I will have  

[4:38:15] four different things. So people can see in the  four first five seconds that I four different   character types. Anything else? Here's how to do  it quick and easy. Okay. Here's the first one. Uh,  

[4:38:29] jet GPT. Go to jet GPT. And for every mark,  there's a new video. There's a new, um, new,  

[4:38:42] uh, screen area. So over here, open chat.gpt.  So I want to share over here. So'll fast forward  

[4:38:55] again. So, so, so what I will do, I'll go over  here. Let's say nothing else. Here's how to do   it quick and easy. Go to chat GPT, go to chat GPT.  So I have this area over here in the beginning. I  

[4:39:13] copy this and over here, I lock this, these both  go to chedgy. So, or something else, here's how   to do it quick and easy. Go to chedgy. So what  I'll do here at the facts, I'll zoom in a bit. Go  

[4:39:46] to go to chat GPT. I go back to the video. I will  fast forward from this point on. So I created a  

[4:40:17] short, just added things, adjust a few things  in After Effects. I think it took me two hours,   especially because I had to wait for all those  animations to be exported. And now I want to add   subtitles in the screen. In order to do that,  I select all the text over here, then I go to  

[4:40:36] window, text, if I don't see that, it's over here.  Then I go to transcripts and I click on this blue   buttons, transcribe. And it will transcribe  all the audio, make text of it based on what  

[4:40:51] the audio says in the video. There you go. Now  I can go through this to see if it's working.   I want to get rid of all the points. So double  click, get rid of the point. It says Jiboo not  

[4:41:07] something. I should make a chat and double click.  Okay. When I'm finished, I click on CC over here,  

[4:41:21] create captions, subtitle default and I want  to set up a little bit. So what I want to say,   maximum length and character want it to be 30,  minimum duration wants to be two and I want to  

[4:41:35] have single lines if possible. I click on create  captions and what I'll see, those captions will   be created over here, really small. So what I  will do, I will double click and then this pops  

[4:41:48] up. Let me drag it over here so you can see the  result. First I want to change the font to Avenir,   medium and you should see the change at once.  I make it capitals, make it bigger. Okay. So  

[4:42:05] the line height. Now scroll down. I want it to be  in the center, but a little bit below the center.   Then I want to have a background, which  is dark blue and fully opaque. So no 75,  

[4:42:24] but 100. I want to make it a bit bigger and  create some corners. I want the text also to   be a bit bigger. Okay. Now I want to click on the  plus, create a style and call this one shorts,  

[4:42:43] subtitles. Okay. And now if I go to another  place in the video, I see it. So I can check it,   go to the video. If something is not aligning,  I can zoom in. I can make it shorter or longer.  

[4:43:07] And then when I'm finished, I need to export  the video, command M. It's still on MP3,   so let me bring that to H.264, then I go for  YouTube 4K Ultra HD, then I go to video and I  

[4:43:25] say match the source. Okay. I want to have  the range, uh, entire source. I click over   here. Then I go to tutorials, seven Oh one finals  like over here. And then after that, I say short,  

[4:43:46] I go to the media encoder. Then I click on  play and then the video will be exported. Well,   this is going on, I go to YouTube,  I'm already there. And over here,  

[4:44:02] I click on create, upload video, select  files, I go to the finals and then I wait   until the video is exported. It goes quite  fast now. Awesome. Now I go to Google,  

[4:44:25] I select the file, the short, I click on open  and then it will be uploaded. So in this case,   we don't have to create a thumbnail. When it comes  to playlists, I like to create a playlist list  

[4:44:39] called shorts. And for the description, I want to  keep it short. What it will do, I will go to chat   GPT. I'll also go to Adobe Premiere or even, even  better. Just go to media encoder, duplicate it,  

[4:44:59] change it over here to MP3, 256. Then I want to  go to KoKA 2, login. I go to tutorials 701 finals.  

[4:45:22] There you it. Then I go to chat a  YouTube short, give me a perfect  

[4:46:30] this, paste over here, cling AI and a few titles,  

[4:46:51] create your own 3d avatar. Yes. Okay. Next. It's  not made for kids. Next. At a related video. This  

[4:47:09] is so cool. I edit and here you go. I can add  subtitles. They're already there. to publish it.  

[4:47:44] Publish. Awesome. So if I refresh the page,  we have one video and we have one short. I  

[4:47:56] hope it will get a lot of views and when people  watch this, look at this. There is a link to the   complete tutorial. What I like about this video  is that within two seconds, you see already the  

[4:48:14] results. I love it. If I could do it over Quick  and easy. Go to chat.gpt. So let's see how it will  

[4:48:39] perform. I don't have to place it on my website,  so that's okay for now. And if I take a look   at my analytics so far or my channel, I got 71  subscribers, more than 500 views already, 40 hours  

[4:48:57] of watch time. This is also interesting because if  you get 4,000 and you get a thousand subscribers,   then you can monetize your content and then you  can also start to make money with advertising.   I make around $4,000 with advertising per  month with all my YouTube channels. It has  

[4:49:14] been 12,000 dollars and it was during Corona.  Twelve thousand dollars in one month, only with   affiliate, not with affiliate but with ad revenue  from YouTube. That's crazy. And then you also have  

[4:49:26] the affiliate revenue from things that people can  buy through your tutorials. So congratulations   with creating your first short, but we're not  there yet. What you can do now, open a TikTok  

[4:49:38] account, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat,  and place your short on all those platforms. If   you already have created it, why not share it as  much as possible so you can reach more people?  

[4:49:55] This part of the tutorial, we're going to talk  about email marketing. One of the most important   things when it comes to affiliate marketing, the  money is in the list is a saying, and it's still   true. I have made hundreds of thousands of dollars  with my email list. So what I want to show you is  

[4:50:11] how to create an email list and how you can fill  it up with people and how you need to do that is   by the following. You need to give something away  for free that is helping your visitor or your   viewer. So in this tutorial, I shared with you  my free template. I shared my website template,  

[4:50:28] I shared some stuff for Adobe Premiere, the  circle thing. And what I've done in my own   YouTube channel is I gave away images and I gave  away Elementor templates in exchange for an email  

[4:50:44] address. So if I go to kit.com, log in, if you  take a look over here at Elementor templates,   more than 42,000 people, they follow my tutorials  and in the tutorials, I said, hey, let's make a  

[4:50:59] 42,000 people did that and they were all on my  email list. Then I can send broadcast emails to   them, to the whole list and then people watch  my tutorials, people can buy things because  

[4:51:14] sometimes Elementor Pro had a certain discount.  Then I could send an email to all the people on   Automatic Pilot with the message, hey there is  discount for Elementor Pro and all those people   use my free Elementor template. So I knew there  were users of Elementor and a lot of people bought  

[4:51:31] it. Sometimes my best day was $7,000 in sales in  one day by selling an affiliate marketing course.   Now I'm giving it away for free, but that shows  you a bit about the power of an email marketing  

[4:51:44] tool. So what I would do if I were you, make sure  that you have an info at your domain name.com.   If you want to learn how, then go to YouTube,  search for Hostinger tutorial Ferdy. There it is,  

[4:52:00] three months ago and there you can learn how to  create an email account. I have mine over here,   then I want to go to ferdy.com forward slash  omnisend because you can get a free version for   that and you can use this with affiliate marketing  with kit or convert kit, they can do a little bit,  

[4:52:16] they can make it a bit hard for you to use  affiliate links in your emails with OmniSend,   that's not a problem. So what I will do, I will  start for free and I want to sign up with email,  

[4:52:28] my business email is info at ferdykoper.com.  I need to create a password, my business   I can always add it later. I agree with the terms  and I don't want to sign up for this. So I click  

[4:52:41] on sign up. Now I've got an email. So over here  at my inbox, complete your registration. Then I   click on verify the email address. Now I need to  fill in some details. My first name, my last name,  

[4:52:58] my business name is Ferdy Korper. My website  name is hpsferdykoper.com. I click on continue,   my business address and then I click on continue  to OmniSend. Awesome. It says connect your store.  

[4:53:17] We don't have to do that. What I want to do,  I want to go to forms. I want to view other   types of forms and I want to create a simple  form. If you want to learn everything about  

[4:53:31] OmniSend, go to ferdy.com, search for  OmniSend. I have multiple in-depth tutorials,   you can watch one of those tutorials over here,  more than two hours long. Right now I will just  

[4:53:46] show you how to create a signup form so people  can fill in their details and send their email   address to you in exchange for something you  give them. So I will go for a really simple form.  

[4:54:03] Let's go with this one, use this template, then I  go to input over here, I drag it here and there I  

[4:54:15] want to go to add label, turn that off, enter your  first name, enter your email and then over here I   can say, get the best prompt to turn yourself into  a 3d character using chat GPT. I can change the  

[4:55:05] layout if I want to. Right now I want to get rid  of step two. So I click over here, delete. And if   I go to success, I get rid of this and I can say,  go, bring it to the center. Okay. Save and close.  

[4:55:41] Then I open it again. I click over here at edit  and I say opt-in form, free roms with chat GPT.  

[4:55:56] Update. Okay. I click over here, button. I want  to go to the button settings, primary button,   change the color to the one from my website. So I  go to colors, the second color, copy it, paste it,  

[4:56:21] hit enter and I want to change it to this one.  Okay. That sounds great or that looks great. Save   and close. Now I need to open it again. I want to  enable the form. I want to stay on the free plan,  

[4:56:38] continue. Okay then I click over here again on  the prompt or on the, sorry on the email and I   go to theme settings and I change the form layout  to a landing page. Update the live form. Now I  

[4:56:55] click on the form again, now I have this external  form. So if I paste this, people can fill in their   details over here. So what I will do, I will go  to ferdykorper.com, to the backend, to redirection  

[4:57:14] and then forward slash prompts and then the  landing page. So now I can do two things. I can   send people in my tutorials to ferdykoper.com  forward slash prompts. Then I can fill in the  

[4:57:32] details or you can create something over here,  which will make people opt in to your email   list. So let me show you how you can do that. In  order to do that, we need to go to plugins, add  

[4:57:44] a plugin, we need to download WooCommerce. Even if  you're not selling things on the internet, install   now, activate, then I go to Omniscent, update  the form, click over here or click over here  

[4:58:03] on Omniscent, connect your store. I want to use  WooCommerce, download the Omniscent plugin, then   I click on download, plugins, add a new plugin,  upload a plugin and then clicking here. I approve.  

[4:58:41] Okay. Now I can adjust the style. So I can use  the colors of my website, save brand assets.   I'll do this later. I'll do this later and  I'll do this later. So now I want to go back,  

[4:58:58] let me clean it up a bit. I want to go back to  Omniscent, then I want to go to forms. I rename   this one to landing page, update, update live  form. then I want to click over here and copy the  

[4:59:18] form. I give this a new name, opt-in free forms  with github. Pop up, website, update. Then I go  

[4:59:31] to the theme settings, form layout and I change  it to a pop-up. Where should it appear? Well,   I want it to be in the center. So I go back, I go  to behavior, when should this pop-up appear? We go  

[4:59:47] to display and it says the rules. When somebody  is two seconds on our website, then I want it to   appear. So I go back, I want it to appear one time  per day. So if they click it away the next day  

[5:00:06] again, they will see it. So update the live form.  Okay. Since this is connected with our website,   if we go to the website, after two seconds, it  appears. So people can enter their first name and  

[5:00:21] their email address, then they click on get the  prompts, go to your inbox to check the prompts,   but we have to fix this because at this  moment, nothing happens. So now we need to go  

[5:00:36] to automation. I click on explore all workflows.  Let's start with a simple one. Welcome. And when  

[5:00:48] this will be triggered is when it is submitted to  marketing and I can filter a trigger, I get rid of   all this and the filter, the trigger is when they  filled in a form and the form is the pop-up form,  

[5:01:08] save it. I want to add another trigger when the  form is the landing page form. Save it, update.   So when people fill in their form, both in the  pop-up or the external page, then they will put  

[5:01:23] on this automation. And I call this one, get the  free prompts. So when people fill in that form,   which I just did, what should happen? Well, we can  wait for more one minute. I prefer not to wait.  

[5:01:40] No, an email should be sent. And right now it's  called welcome to blah, blah, blah. I will change   this. Here are your prompts and I want to make it  personal. So I click over here and I go for the  

[5:01:54] first name, insert the pre header. These prompts  can be used for chat GPT. The sender's name is  

[5:02:09] Ferdy Korper. When people reply, I want them to  reply to info at ferdykoper.com. Let me update   this. Now I can adjust the content over here by  clicking on edit content. Yes, save it. And now  

[5:02:22] we can change this whole content thing. So I can  get rid of this and I say, Hey. So what I can do,  

[5:03:03] I can duplicate this. Yeah, I can get rid of  good luck and cheers. Here I can get rid of the   beginning and then over here in between, I want  to have a button, drag it over here, bring it to  

[5:03:19] the left, go to, it can be anything, it can be a  PDF. So if you would go to your website to media  

[5:03:48] and you would upload something, anything, let's  say this one, you can copy the clip, copy the URL   to the clipboard and you could paste it over here.  What I've done, I create a blog post, you can also  

[5:04:00] create a PDF or something else. I created this  blog post and click over here. I copy the URL,  

[5:04:12] so I redirect them to my website. That can sound a  little bit cheap, like, okay, you could also send   me to the website. Now I have to leave my email  address. So I would prefer to put it into a PDF,   make it stand out. For the sake of the tutorial,  I will just do it like this. And I click on finish  

[5:04:33] editing. Okay. Start a workflow, really important  to start it. It was not started yet when I opted   in. So I will do it again. In incogn My email  address ferdykorpershoek at gmail.com. I click on  

[5:05:01] get the prompts. Okay. Now I will go to my Gmail  account and then over here, I get, Hey Ferdy,   below you can find the prompts I promised. Use  them in chat dpt in order to turn yourself into  

[5:05:13] a cool looking avatar. There I go, people can  use this and now if I go to Omnisent, I close   this and I go to reports or audience, contacts, I  see I have two contacts already, George and Ferdy  

[5:05:28] Korpershoek and that way I can grow my email list  and now if I want to send something to everybody I   can go to campaigns and send an email to everybody  that is in my list or to a specific segment.   There's so much more to OmniSend, so if you want  to learn more about that, again, go to ferdy.com  

[5:05:46] and then search for OmniSend or go to YouTube  and search for OmniSend tutorial 30. And there  

[5:05:58] you go. Migrate to OmniSend, start building your  email list. This is the best one, two months old.   This is more for people that want to start with  WooCommerce. This is if you don't use WooCommerce.  

[5:06:10] So a lot of value. And now in your tutorials and  in your blog post, you can refer people to this   thing you offer and then you can grow your email  list. And then when there is a certain deal for  

[5:06:22] a special AI software thing, in my case, I can  send that, use my affiliate link and in a short   amount of time, I can make a lot of money while  at the same time helping other people. So let's  

[5:06:37] talk about another really interesting subject,  about making money with revenue from YouTube.   Let's talk about a really interesting  subject because besides affiliate revenue,  

[5:06:52] you can also make money with YouTube itself with  ad revenue. When people watch your tutorials and   you are able to use or place advertisements,  you can make money with that. I made over  

[5:07:05] $400,000 in ad revenue from YouTube. So I'm not  talking about affiliate revenue. No, besides that,   there's also revenue through views. So the better  the quality of your videos, the longer people will   watch, the more YouTube will place you in  front of other people to watch your videos,  

[5:07:21] the more money you can make with advertising. So  I have turned on my phone. If I go, by the way,   if you go to the app store or if you use a  different device, you should search for YouTube  

[5:07:35] studio and download that, then log in and then you  can see all the statistics. So over here, you see,   I have a million, 240,000 subscribers. The last  four weeks I had around $3,000 in revenue. That  

[5:07:53] has been a lot more, but I don't know, things  happen. If you take a look at the last 365 days,   it has been decreasing. If you go to the glory  days that was COVID, I had around $500 per day  

[5:08:06] sometimes in my really the best days. So you see  540 was the top, a little bit below that $500 in   one day with ad revenue. My best month was $12,000  with revenue from YouTube views and these days,  

[5:08:20] now it's back to $3,000 in the last four weeks. It  is what it is. I focus on creating content. I've   also, I've been moving the last year, so maybe  I created less tutorials. I don't know exactly  

[5:08:32] what happened. Maybe there's more competition,  maybe there's more other things, I don't know.   But if you take a look at the lifetime, the  total, you see almost $411,000 in revenue.  

[5:08:45] And I live in the Netherlands, so I pay taxes. So  let's say that it's $200,000 in real money that   I can keep after taxes. In euros, that's let's  say 180,000 euros. Quite cool for someone who  

[5:08:59] uploads free videos to YouTube. But what I like  if I take a look at the videos that I created,   that's why I was transparent in the beginning of  this tutorial. With this video, I will make a lot   of money. Even though I give everything away for  free, I could sell it as a course, I could make so  

[5:09:15] much more money with it, but I decided to give it  away for free so I can make revenue with affiliate   revenue from this video and from ad revenue. So  my best working video is also create an affiliate  

[5:09:27] marketing website. So $20,000, but what I really  like, take a look at this one, contact form 7,   this video took me one day to make. I know what I  remember is that I really did my best to bring it  

[5:09:43] to the next level, but it earned me $8,000.  The video is around 30 minutes. Right now,   I should make a new one because it only has 40  views in the last 48 hours. So the last hour only  

[5:10:02] one view. So I think it's seven, six years old,  so I should make a new one. But here you see all   the videos that make me money and yeah, that's  what I, I hope to inspire you with that, that  

[5:10:16] besides affiliate revenue, that you can also make  tutorials for things that do not have an affiliate   program. So even if you're promoting videos that  do not have affiliate programs in it, it will  

[5:10:29] still help your channel grow. If I take a look at  my own channel, I go to the oldest video. Let me   see oldest. This one brought me revenue from the,  the, the end fault theme, as I talked about in the  

[5:10:42] beginning. But after that, look at this, maybe it  was my seventh video. This was as 178 views on a   thousand, one on a thousand, one on a thousand.  Look at this one, 341,000. This one went viral.  

[5:10:57] This one blew up my YouTube channel. And it's a 56  minute video without any affiliate link, nothing.   But what happened, people started subscribing  through this YouTube channel and they saw my other  

[5:11:13] videos with affiliate links. So this video has no  affiliate links, but it helped my channel to grow,   get more subscribers, get more views. And then  that way, YouTube started showing other videos   online, including affiliate links to viewers on  YouTube because they saw, Hey, people are watching  

[5:11:28] this for such a long time. This channel must be  good. So all the videos are 30, we'll share them   with more people. So again, don't focus on making  money, focus on helping people. And if there's  

[5:11:40] something that people can really benefit from,  and it has no affiliate links, just go all in and   share what you can share with them. And then left  or right or up or down, some way it will come back  

[5:11:53] to you. People talk about karma, I don't know.  What I believe in is what you reap is what you   sow. If you sow love, you will reap love. If you  sow money, you reap money. I started giving away  

[5:12:08] money in 2011. I made a really conscious choice  from now on I will give away so much more money   than what is normal. So to the church, to charity,  but on birthdays I did not give 5 euros, I gave  

[5:12:22] 20 euros. I wanted to go all in with giving even  to the point that sometimes I was not wise and   I lost all my money or I had no money left and  then I borrowed it so it's not one big success  

[5:12:34] story. But I believe now 15 years later, thanks to  all the sowing in money in other people's lives,   now I reap so much more money. So I also do that  with this video that I give to you is for me  

[5:12:47] sowing in other people's life and I believe that  when I do that, I will also reap from it and that   will make me really happy. There's a really nice  quote from, I don't know from who, but it says,  

[5:13:00] success without fulfillment is ultimate failure.  Man, that struck me. There are rich people,   there are famous people who commit suicide.  They're successful in our eyes, but they are not  

[5:13:14] fulfilled. And when you don't have fulfillment,  success is worth not a lot. So I want to feel   the fulfillment. Now do I get that fulfillment  knowing that I'm helping other people even while   I'm asleep? I see it in the comments, I see it in  the emails, people are happy with what I'm doing,  

[5:13:29] they think I'm a nice person, I think so too.  And that's really, really rewarding. And the fun   thing is when I'm on vacation on a beautiful area  and I'm not working, I still make money. So yes,  

[5:13:42] even if there's no affiliate program attached  to the video you create or the blog post,   you're still helping other people and that will  not be forgotten. My God, maybe you think it's the  

[5:13:55] universe. I think it's God. Let's not discuss it.  Just take my word for it. No, just kidding. Hey,   um, that's it about the revenue. You can make a  revenue with videos. $400,000. I think that's a  

[5:14:09] lot of money. Even after taxes, still a lot of  money. Why? How? By offering value. It's more   money than I ever made with all the business I did  combined, I think. I'm not sure. Yes, I think so.   So that's why I'm so excited about Philip Mart.  Let's talk about what is next. What should you do  

[5:14:26] next? So dear people, we've created so many things  already. We created a website, we created a video,  

[5:14:39] we created a short. If you put everything into  practice, you already should have some views.   So what is next? After I created my first video  10 years ago on my YouTube channel, I decided to  

[5:14:51] create a second video and a third one and a fourth  one. And as I've said before, it was the ninth   video or the seventh video, my WooCommerce video  that made my channel took off like crazy. I know   in the first six months I made around $6,000, but  that video, I think I made it after six or seven  

[5:15:07] months that made my channel go viral, kind of  like that was the moment that my channel started   growing. So instead of waiting now for views and  sales, make a second video, make a third video,  

[5:15:19] keep on going. So in the time I was making my  first tutorial last week, I saw that there is a   new video of, um, Google VO three. And if you take  a look over here, eight days ago, 80,000 views,  

[5:15:39] five days ago, 41,000 views. So what I should  do, I should take a look at all these videos,   10 days ago, 63, look at, oh, this is crazy, four  days ago. And I should make videos about Google  

[5:15:53] VO because now it's time to start making content  about what is relevant. I could make a tutorial   about something that's totally not relevant right  now. I should not do that because if I want to   grow my channel, I need to be in the game. But  what YouTube wants is more views because the more  

[5:16:10] people are on this platform, the more money they  make. So they are trying out every single video to   a certain audience in order to see if people  are watching that. So when you make a video,  

[5:16:23] Google will test it to see if it's performing  well. That's why I said in this whole course or   in this whole tutorial that you should create high  quality videos. Well, if you take a look at this,  

[5:16:35] what people are searching for, man, you need to  take a look at what is relevant and I use YouTube   for that. So what I do on my YouTube channel right  now, I'm on my YouTube channel of Ferdy.com, but  

[5:16:49] if I would use my brand new YouTube channel and  I search only for the things I'm interested in,   I start to subscribe to a lot of people that do  the same thing as I do. So I would subscribe to   all my competitors. Then the algorithm will show  me more videos about, um, the, in my case, AI and  

[5:17:05] what I also see, let's just do it. I switched  my account to Ferdy AI, 82 subscribers already.   So, okay. This guy is talking about AI. I  subscribe. Then I go back to search Google VO,  

[5:17:23] VO. My internet is slow. I already  subscribed, so let's go back. Planet AI,  

[5:17:42] subscribe. So now if I go to the homepage, I can  go to subscriptions and I see a list of all the   people that uploaded things recently. So if I  see, okay, three days ago, 3000 views, okay,  

[5:17:57] not that interesting. Two days ago, 66,000 views.  Okay. This is interesting. It's just a four minute   video on what I should do now. I should dive deep  into video. And I already heard that this is only  

[5:18:09] for the United States. So then it depends. Then my  thinking decides if I will be successful with this   or not because I'm like, I'm not from the United  States, so I will not try it. Or I start thinking,   hey, what can I do to still use this so I can  make a tutorial about it? So what I could use is,  

[5:18:25] I use a VPN server and using a VPN server, you  can do as if you're from the United States,   So that's what I will do. And then it  only has to be one video that goes viral,  

[5:18:40] that will make your whole channel go like crazy.  And that's when the exponential growth comes,   maybe that's when your first sale will come.  So now it's a matter of creating more content,  

[5:18:52] repeating the whole process. And if you really  go all in and after months and months and months,   nothing is working, then I would go back to  step one. That is the decision step. Like,  

[5:19:04] hey, I said I will go for it. And in some cases,  things just don't work. Then you need to change   your plan. Start over again. And what I would  do, go to ferdy.com slash Jim Rohn and then watch  

[5:19:21] this video. And watch this video from Brian Tracy  and start reading Think and Grow Rich. And what I   found in my life and what I see in other people's  lives is when you keep on improving yourself, that  

[5:19:33] idea will come. That brilliant idea for a YouTube  channel, for a business and affiliate program,   it will come. And sometimes it fails and then  you need to start over again until it goes. And  

[5:19:46] there's a really nice saying, maybe a bit cheesy  but I believe in it 100%. Winners never quit,   quitters never win. If you never quit, if you  keep on doing this, you keep on trying new things,  

[5:20:00] you keep on improving yourself, becoming better  in making tutorials, becoming better in front of   courses about that, you can watch videos about  it, improve yourself until the point then all  

[5:20:14] of a sudden success will come your way. Success  is not something you should pursue, success is   something you attract by becoming an attractive  person, how to by developing yourself. This is  

[5:20:26] literally from the video from Jim Rohn. Success  is something you don't pursue, but it's something   you attract. I've been reading a lot of books.  I've been watching that video from Jim Rohn,  

[5:20:42] from Brian Tracy over and over and over again. It  motivates me. It starts to believe that I can make   a difference in this world and even though I can  think English is not my main language, who am I,   other people are better. I decided to go all in  and now 10 years later, exactly 10 years after  

[5:20:57] I uploaded this video, I'm super successful with  YouTube. I can spend more time with my family, I   can go on vacation, I don't have to take a look at  price tags anywhere and I'm so thankful for that.   But it all started 10 years ago with a decision,  I will go in. I will not stop. I did not stop and  

[5:21:15] this course, the ability with the knowledge I  have to give to you for free so you can start   doing the same thing. Winners never quit, quitters  never win. Are you a winner or are you a quitter?  

[5:21:32] Well I wish you sincerely the best of luck in this  journey. I hope you can appreciate that I created   this tutorial for you all for free.

[5:21:49] I mean e-commerce and affiliate marketing.  Good luck with your journey. God bless you   and may he give you peace in everything and may  you experience his peace in your life. I think  

[5:22:01] that's the most important thing we can have in  life. Peace of mind. I believe we can get it   from God. He wants to give it to us. Other people  get it from other things. There is one piece, the   Bible says, that's beyond understanding. Like wow,  how can we experience that? And the great thing is  

[5:22:17] that we can experience that also when we don't  have money, when we only don't have success in   this world. And that's what I wish you. The peace  of God that surpasses all understanding. Well,
