I’ve been avoiding going live for so long, but you’ve convinced me that it’s time to get over the nerves! Love your videos Salma! 😊
I'm sold - there's only so many times you can ignore the advice about live video! Thanks for being the straw that broke the camel's back! :)
Hah! And this is why you should make a video on a topic you care about, no matter how many others have already done so ;)
James: good luck!! What will be the topic of your live stream?
Hey Salma, I work for a software distie (Zen Software) so there are quite a few topics there potentially. I'm totally sold on video but I'm yet to take it live. It's time! (Ps. I was at CMA Live for your video talk too btw!)
James Steel Sounds great! Don't think, just go live and see what happens. Oh and thanks for that added context, cmalive was a lot of fun, even long distance!
I am pumped to start planning my live streams. I am very grateful for all you value. Thank you 🙏🏼
Are you all fired up to GO LIVE on UA-cam? What possible challenges might you face? Tell me in the comments so I can help!
No scribers
@@bennyomoedo3169 lol
Another great video! I've been binge watching your content 😉 I've been hesitant about going live due to being a newbie with a tiny amount of subs..... The fact that UA-cam treats live streams as just another upload is really a good thing! Not only will going live help me get more comfortable on camera it will also allow me to practice engaging with my audience in real time! I'm sold and I'm ready!!!
Thanks so much for your time and effort you put into educating the masses. Love & blessings❤
Exactly!!!
Thank you for your help
Thank you for the tips 😊
Thank you!!!💜💜💜⚡️⚡️⚡️
Never thought of it. Will plan a weekly day...thanks :))
That's a plan :)
Thanks for giving me the go-ahead to start making live content 🥰😍🤩😘
I loved this video I am going to be trying this soon & will share with you how did it go 😀✌️👍
Wow. Ur so informative, havent seen a video with someone giving so much actual knowledge in soo long. subbed.
Thank you so much for watching and leaving a thoughtful comment :)
Thank you, I'm thinking about incorporating a regular live video and this is definitely helpful!
thanks alot,sis going live daily a good thing to do!
Great voice! Thank you for this great info Salma!!
Thank you! What are your thoughts on live streaming on UA-cam?
I have been putting off the idea of going live for quite awhile now but thanks to you I am motivated more than ever to go live every Sunday. Thanks again.
That is awesome Harold! Going live is a whole new experience. Lean into it.
@@SalmaJafri thanks for the insight. Blessed day!
Yes !!! I’m so fired up after this !!
Thank youuuu
i love it
love it go live salma thanks yes
Wow amazing ❤
I am noe hooked to your videos! You have a gift! I watched so many just tonight...well it's 2.26 am and am still watching! U gave me the desire to get back on it! I created my intro and outro already following your advice! Thank you sooo much!! I will go Live this week !!
nice video very informative
Thank you for the information. I been thinking that I should go live, once I come up with something to film, I will go live.
That's great to know Bonnie. I'd suggest jumping off the deep end with live video and doing one even if you don't quite have a topic worked out. It could be the general theme of your channel: handmade crafts. Good luck!
Salma Jafri thank you for the advise. Question, would it be a idea to let people see me working with making some handmade jewelry?
Bonnie's World. That sounds awesome! Go for it!!!
Salma Jafri thanks. I am currently making some jewelry, so I have a friend film me live on UA-cam.
yes you got me fired up and ready to go as Obama would say. Im sitting here brainstorming ideas now.
I will use your video as my template, and step by step give it a try. Thank you.
I just did my first live!! This definitely inspired me
I think I’m going to push pay my fears of going live and just do it! You’ve inspired me 😀
Yay 🎉 do it!
You’re so awesome❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much!
Great idea of scheduling your live videos ahead of time and using a standard thumbnail. I've been going live on FB however looking forward to going live on YT again as I get much more engagement
Yes going live on UA-cam helps build your channel too! I still like Facebook lives for selling products though. It's both for me, not either of. What would your thumbnail be about Herman?
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Very informative and motivational vedio thnx dear
What a great idea and, more importantly, your leading by example! I highly appreciate the info you share here. Thank you very much indeed, Salma!
Thank you Stanislav! Yes the aim here is to share what works for me and why, so other video creators can learn from my experience. So happy to have you be a part of the journey!
I really enjoy watching your videos, thank you for your lovely easy explanations... you make it all sound so easy & doable. I would like ot know the actual process of going live, the ""How To"'
Awesome video Salma. I have been doing live streamings from Facebook, but I will try UA-cam, thanks for your great info!
Thank you! It's just as easy to go live now on UA-cam as it is on Facebook. With the added advantage that YT livestreams build your channel and search authority. You should have no problem!
What would the topic of your livestream?
Thanks for this Salma- it was very helpful!
Happy it helped
First time I will go live for tomorrow, wish me luck 🙈
The boost your channel got is awesome, and congratulations, you deserve it. But, how can you tell if the amazing result is due to the videos being live, rather than just being an extra video a week, with the longer run time?
Hi Judy, great point! The cool thing is that there's no difference in how UA-cam sees a video upload - recorded or live. So once your live is over, it's treated as a normal video upload.
So to your point, the result might have been the same had I just added another scheduled video.
However, it was much easier for me to add a live stream than do another recorded video because of the time involved in scripting/production/editing of recorded videos. So in terms of time savings, live videos give me a better return on my time.
That said, what are your thoughts on going live on UA-cam?
That is kind of a relief to hear for someone who is reeeal nervous about going live. Heck, I'm nervous about going on camera - live or not, at least at this stage. I'm sure it will become easier with time and experience. A paperbag with two holes for the eyes might help, lol.
I get your point about the practical advantages, which alone makes it worth trying, as does the direct interaction with your community.
The upshot for me is, I will start without live once a week to build confidence and at least a small community, then add a second (non-live) video and see if that makes a difference (opportunity to experiment and give feedback), then swap the occasional second one out for a live video and increase those if I find them to be worth doing.
I'm fired up to go live
Thanks for advice!!! I subd ya💗
Great tips!!! You can also go live using Chrome. 😊 You inspire! 😎
Thanks for the input Mighty! Yes you can go live using your desktop :)
Great info Salma! :D
Thanks Andrew! I'd done a few lives on my channel before, just never this consistently in a show format. The latter is really paying off!
Hi Salma, thank you so much for your content. I am a Songwriter/Musician/Performer/Livestreamer with a good following on other platforms, gratefully. I have been avoiding going live on You Tube because I have such a large audience on TTok and am afraid of having too small group of listeners on YTube. However, I am open minded to learning and do want to grow my You Tube channel. I realize going Live here will help grow my channel. Advice? What is the optimum length of Live? Thanks
Invite your tiktok audience to come see your yt live and chose a compelling topic. You'll get some overlaps and will grow from there. A small audience is a blessing when you're first starting out because it allows you to connect deeper with people and they are more forgiving of any mistakes. You got this.
Great video. We went live last night for the first time. I struggled with tech issues in the beginning - but overall it went well. My question is NOW WHAT? I edited the title & thumbnail and uploaded it to my channel - but people aren't being notified that it's there - like when I put up a new video. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong? Like I said - brand new at this! thanks
Great job going live!!! 👏 Live videos aren't meant to perform like typical uploads. Use the lives to interact with your community, share info in real time and build rapport. You can then repurpose the livestream for nuggets of info, or unlist it since people will rarely watch the full replay. Use livestreams to connect with your audience on a much deeper level.
@@SalmaJafri Thanks for the information.
HI Salma - thanks for the advice again. Love you structured way of doing things. Good for a freestyler like myself ;-) My Q is - how will you organize your live videos within your channel - are you making a separate playlist? Or do you keep them off playilsts?
Great question Anja! So I have 3 options:
- put the live videos in a separate playlist but not share the playlist on home
- share that playlist on my home page
- Not put the live videos in any playlist
For now, they are not in any playlist. But maybe later I'll put them in a playlist, just to find them easily, but not share that playlist on home page because I don't think many people will go back to watch 1 hour broadcasts months/years from now.
What are your thoughts around going live on UA-cam? Will you try it out?
Thanks you very much I will appreciate your support and help I am a UA-camr myself
Am not able to use mobile live but my live is on on laptop i have 1000 sub but still show some pop up in mobile
I'm intimidated by being in front of a camera. Not going to happen for several months.
I'm intimidated I might say the wrong thing and it will be it the forever or I'll need to delete the video. Can you edit after the livestream is over?
I would literally encourage you to get on camera with the intention of deleting it later. I have several videos that are deleted or made private because they were my early efforts. Only way to get through the fear is to go through it.
Hmm... I assume you can do this when you're going to a park or a tourist trap or daily parts of a trip you're on... That's a great idea. Maybe. My brain is churning now!!! :) (Much thanks.)
Go live you mean? Yes absolutely, you can go live on UA-cam using just your phone so from literally anywhere :) I agree - a ton of possibilities!!! So what will your first live be about? :)
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
👍❤️👍
I think it helps if you have something to do or your cute I think you have both also I would like to see live stream. data for males and females analytical data
Unfortunately Case I have no such gender or demographic data! All I can tell you is that if your content is valuable to your audience, then your videos (live or recorded) should do reasonably well. The rest will happen with time and practice.
Hello Salma thanks for sharing..Can I ask for an update regarding live streaming like is there any restrictions as to how often you can do the Livestreaming? Can I do it every even though I don't have 1000 subscribers?
Thanks a lot.. watching you from the Philippines 🇵🇭😘
Yes you can go live when if you don't have 1k subscribers but you have to do it using third party software such as obs, restream, stream yard, etc. And not directly via UA-cam.
another great and useful video mam, i just need one help i want to know which music u use during starting of video..please let me know its very nice to hear.. please reply
I bought the music from Envato's AudioJungle. Don't remember the name but they have thousands of tracks you can choose from at affordable prices. Thanks for liking it!
Thank u salmaji, keep it up .. when ever you upload video i never miss it , thanks for being there
Om Raut so grateful 🙏
How to plan a live stream
I have a whole playlist on making live videos. Find it from the home page on my channel.
Why we follow ur commands or moreover is it fully benificial ?????🤔🤔🤔🤔
Hmm? Not sure what you mean? I'm just sharing what I've learned. You can choose to follow or not.
Great Salma. I'm going live for the first time tomorrow. Could we collab sometime?
Sure! Email me using my About section. I won't be able to do one before October though.
It says I can’t until I get 1000 subscribers...
Yep, you can't on desktop (unless using streaming software) But you can via mobile.
Is this still relevant in 2023?
