Fantastic. People never talk about their failures, so it's nice to hear that you had other failures prior to Tumbler. Overall my takeaway from this is: * recognising and seizing opportunities. * acquiring skills that will enable you to grow and hiring to your weaknessess. * Seeing the bigger picture and knowing when to pivot. * managing profits well to facilitate new ventures and create a safety net. * using knowledge and experience gained from project A to drive B,C and D..... and upgrading where needed. * Back to point 1 You legend!
I've watched / listened / seen your content and work on and off over the years. Every now and then I see a video from you and think "Yeah let's see what Oliur's up to" and it's always enjoyable to listen to you and see what you're doing and hear about old work/projects that I saw you working on back in the day. I used to build WP themes on ThemeForest and made a living on there a few years ago, and I did used to take a lot of inspo from your work / themes / style. Cheers Oliur, til next time
Seeing all the videos on how you made your money and built your business is super cool and refreshing! Being so open and helpful really makes you a most follow! Keep it coming
Great to finally to hear the story in full! Incredible man! The fact that you have built on your early success and not been crushed by it, is amazing. It's true what they say, 'once is luck, twice is skill' 😎 Great insight!
There's so many things in life that push me to keep learning to code, but your videos man, your videos really inspire me to keep pushing, it'll pay off. Keep doing what you do!
yeah its mad, i once met a 19 year old in 2016 who told me was a millionaire from selling themes for wordpress, i didnt believe him then he showed me themeforest and i was blown away!
Hey Oliur. I've been following you since, basically, from the beginning. I remember, in the old days, every day i run to your site, ultralinx, to se the news. To see the new inspiration pics. And see you today, after fighting a beast like cancer, and see you continually achieve the success... There is no greater inspiration for me. It's the first time in years that i send you a message. Sorry for my bad english, it's a little rusty. Greatings from Portugal.
Thank you, really inspirational. Something I’ve considered for a long time with themes that I’ve built for clients so really helped me make up my mind on whether I should sell the themes I’ve been creating.
It’s always enjoyable to see your video, it’s nice to hear how you started and how you build up. Pretty much the behind the scene. If you ever do get the chance, would love to see a video of your workflow, and a daily life.’
I've really been enjoying these types of videos. I hope you continue to make more content about personal finance, development, and your story as a creative. Thanks!
Great video as always Oliur! I’m curious as to why do you consider that Instagram is dying. Maybe you could make a video around that topic? Btw, I’m so happy to see you more frequently after beating cancer. You’re really inspiring :)
I dont even remember what made me subscribe to you originally man but keep it up because I'm still watching every video without fail. I would love to see a little series on the basics of web design / HTML if you ever have the time :)
So super happy to see this video... very informative. Though I wasnt doing website design and themes I dabbled into music blogging and doing reviews for people. i built my own website with Wordpress me am super proud of it. It worked out pretty cool in the first year but as with most businesses, it died down. People don’t like reading music reviews lol. So I’m at point where I’m trying to pivot into my next business venture. Very motivational video, thanks dude!
Very inspirational financial management video. I believe I need to do something with my time and existing Mac setup and don't let them sit in the dust. Thanks, bro. Very helpful.
Thank you for sharing so much of your insight into business and building different sources of income. Really inspirational and motivates me to do more.
Great video! Thanks for sharing all of this. It is inspirational. It also shows how ideas or things can be real. it is just about trusting and applying our ideas, efforts and dedication in order to succeed. Stay healthy and keep up the good work, mate. 🙌🏻
I enjoyed it! I have a similar story making online courses. There is nothing like seeing how your work is helping thousands of people (and money pouring in in buckets!)
Loved this video. All of your business vids are awesine, I learn a lot from them. Would love to see a video about how you run ULX, Ultralinx, MinimalSetups !
Nice video. It's the first time I watch your channel. It would have been interesting to know what you do now for living and maybe also in which projects you ended up investing during the years.
I'm addicted to your channel and content! High quality, very useful. I've been discovering a passion for design but i don't really know how to start. Back in time Tumblr was so much popular than now, do you think it's worth it making these themes nowdays to make some money? What do you think is useful for making money nowdays? Presets? Thanks indeed.
Love this! Really inspiring, trying so hard to build products and share value on social media to have a consistent passive income. and your channel has helped me so much! Thank you
You were very reasonable as a young person earning that kind of money. It’s awesome to see young people who are not wasting their potential when they catch the wave.
This is great and inspiring, I need to replace my current minimum wage here in the U.K. by making money online, you did very well with all those sales of themes!

An excellent summary.
Great video. Illustrates how lucrative it could be to get in early with new technologies/trends.
I'd say it's tech that's so bad that noone wants to touch it, so crazy profits. Both with Wordpress and Tumblr.
@@bioloom9654 yeah. magento and wordpress have some of the messiest codebases I've seen.
@@pjcollazo8318 ^^ facts
60% of the tumblr userbase vanished overnight just because they banned porn. Cracks me up everytime.
There wasn’t just porn.... there was a lot of artistic photography which was misconstrued as porn
lol
@@peterkelly8357 have to admit it that was the day I last used tumblr.
@@PiyushJena Same tbh. I was using tumblr for cartoon porn XD
@@neo_aliaga You couldn't even torture this sort of information out of me.
Definitely keep making these videos. Extremely interesting and its 90% you talking into the camera 🙌🏻

There's something so calming about your voice. It's enjoyable to listen to...thanks for the content dude
God bless you man, wish you the best of health!

Great insight!
There's so many things in life that push me to keep learning to code, but your videos man, your videos really inspire me to keep pushing, it'll pay off. Keep doing what you do!
Damn this video was amazing, didn’t expect those numbers from just selling themes
yeah its mad, i once met a 19 year old in 2016 who told me was a millionaire from selling themes for wordpress, i didnt believe him then he showed me themeforest and i was blown away!
great insingts, didn't have the website build niche on my mind at all!

Congrats to you on defeating cancer. And thank you for sharing your personal story.
Productize your skills -- that's the key. Building something once and selling it twice.
Thank you, really inspirational. Something I’ve considered for a long time with themes that I’ve built for clients so really helped me make up my mind on whether I should sell the themes I’ve been creating.
Definitely, keep doing this kind of videos. You are such an inspiration! Thank you!
