I am much more interested in video content generally and want to find more on blurt media, so far I just get the same four creators show up, perhaps I need to follow the rest of you? Who is using blurt media?

I think we need to get more Filmmakers to join Blurt.media via the Blurt Matrix Chatroom ….
Matrix / Element Blurt Chat Room : https://matrix.to/#/#blurt:matrix.org
Share the link and let people know that they need to go there and ask @kencode and @agorise to set up their Blurt.Media Channel.
I feel that ppl need to have built up earnings tho rly want to join. We are here because we want the platform to grow and been here since the start but realistically ppl don’t want to make videos for £2. On YouTube there is the realisation that they accumulate over years.
Yeah ….
But it took me 10 years to reach 1,000 subscribers and millions of views on YouTube and earn my 1st $100 dollars …. It’s a little easier now with YouTube Shorts
With Blurt.Media you can earn $ 4 with your very 1st video ….
I started my travel YouTube a year ago and I have one video on YouTube that’s almost at £400 but yeah it took a year to get there. YouTube shorts hardly earn anything my 10 k view ones have 15 p so you rly rly need to get a lot with them whereas I have full length videos with only 1000 views that made £15. My 7-11 k videos from last summer made around £50 I have some with 2 k that are on £16-£20. and by the end of summer I imagine they will be doing a lot better. I don’t know all the algorithms quite but some do better than others. I mean you’re just filming your dog walking etc so it’s non brainer to get a cup of coffee for it but any actual filmmakers it’s not the case. Just for my videos i spend a whole day filming, two days researching and editing sometimes. I also use YouTube so I can also stick them on blurt media but it’s not actually worth it on its own so that means ppl only share the same stuff they are sharing elsewhere or they are just putting up stuff they can make in 2 minutes. You won’t get filmmakers creating stuff for blurt that gets £2 and no chance of growing. Ppl might however, have more interest if like YouTube they knew that in 5/10 years time that video could be worth a decent amount and the residual from their old videos keeps coming in.
Yes. But the idea is to create one film and share it many places … YouTube, Blurt.Media, Pixelpoint.tv etc etc. …. Earn $2-$3 from every video on every platform and you are soon making $1,000 a day… $365,000 a year … that’s a pretty good Retirement or Hobby Income.
you realise to earn £1000 a day from £2 would mean posting on 500 platforms the same video. That in itself would take days to upload and keyword. Plus anyone making an actual good film would take months to make one video. Even a good travel blog takes a few days assuming you’re not travelling overseas. A film maker prob has to pay for euipment sets and maybe actors and locations too. To create good videos can’t be done as a hobby. You can create shorts sure but not 7 good videos a week 365 days a year and post it on 500 platforms lol. The idea of residual build up means you can graft hard for 10 years etc on YouTube then pretty much if your content is evergreen slow it right down. Notice most big creators now make 4 a month rly max but they are great quality. This 2 dollars or even £50 a video stuff as a one off will never attract filmmakers period . Even £200 and done isn’t really enough to be serious about it.
Yeah… but the idea is to start.
This guy started with one video from his iPhone on a tripod.
7 years ago.
He is set for life.
Yes but he started on YouTube and every year that goes by he’s making money from new content and his original old content.
Keep in mind ultravioletmag that in 3rd world countries, $4/day is a LOT. As the new fiat currencies get rolled out (some in CBDC form), those first world countries will experience the biggest value drops for their money, while the current 3rd world countries will feel the benefits of their currency going farther. I live in Mexico now for example and even $2/day is a really nice side-hustle for many laborers, taxi drivers, etc.
I was making over $7000 per post when steem came out and the word started spreading fast about the platform, so the goal here is to get Blurt as much exposure as possible to people worldwide and that is why I have built blurtmedia to syndicate to as many places as possible so that you get discovered, as well as blurtmedia. I love your videos by the way. :)
Youtube is chock full of ads and everyone is annoyed by them, of course along with their horrible algos, censorship and shadow-bans, worldwide searches on google for youtube alternatives has DOUBLED in the last couple years:
Not sure if you guys (ping @offgridlife) knew this or not, but the videos that you upload to blurtmedia can also be syndicated via your rss feed to your existing youtube channel, giving them even more exposure:

I think you both live in 1st world countries, so yeah, $2 doesn't buy much. I firmly believe that Blurt is the best network in the world for SocialFi though, which is why I chose to leave Hive and start building here. Good things take time, slow and steady wins the race.
At the week-long Anarchapulco event this year (it just ended yesterday) I taught a CryptoKids class and introduced the class (adults as well) to earning online and Blurt of course was at the top of that list, along with staking and other ways of earning online.
The big corporations are dying. Hive is dying too. The underdogs like us are clearly growing, but we need your awesome contributions and spreading the word to really kick this into high gear.
Blurt is the #1 best SocialFi network in the world now.
Yes. According to GROK3 …. Elon Musk latest AI Tool …
Blurt has the most potential to succeed. It is better than Hive and Steemit.

Do you really only want users from third world countries though? I mean if you do that’s fine I guess. 2 dollars here doesn’t even buy half a coffee lol.
My point is tho of the videos were allowed to accumulate over time it becomes more valuable and also makes ppl more invested in the platform long term as they think wow in 5 years my residual income might be quite good. I’m no where near the best travel blogger obviously as just started but my videos take a loooot of effort I spent a day filming and 1-2’days editing and researching the voice over and clips.
I also have iPads and iPhones and laptops worth £1000s that run out etc. just giving the reality of blogging. If every video we made had the potential to incrementally create a residual like on YouTube it’s makes it far more valuable. Just my two cents.
I went to the wrong places in mexico for sure as didn’t find it that cheap lol
It also gives incentives to post when the platform is low in value knowing those videos can still do well in the future. It could rly be what sets blurt apart from steemit and hive s the seven day pay out window is very limiting Imo.
I totally absolutely positively agree 100% :)
..and I'm on it.
Of course not, that's why I mentioned the differences between 1st and 3rd world countries. Making Blurt your full-time income is already a reality for some and as we grow together it will encompass the "richer" countries over time as well.
Exactly and that is why I (at agorise) am working so hard to implement a more chain-agnostic approach to tipping and passive income for Blurt. Stay tuned because nearly every week we are releasing new features and updates on blurt.media.
I live in a nice 2-bedroom apartment literally right on the sand of the beach for 10000 mxn pesos per month in acapulco. In mazatlan, it's about the same and we will be moving there next month since there is more to do up there for my kids.
