I’ve been considering upgrading the RAM and storage on my computer, and I’ve been gathering the necessary components to do it. However, the RAM has to be purchased, and the storage is from older laptops and PCs.
09/09/24 — YouTube update:
The new goal is 1000 ZAR because it is now in South African Rands. This is only on the mobile version of YouTube Studio and not on the desktop.
10/09/24 — Weekly recap:
12/09/24 —
I had to wait for the parts I ordered to arrive before I could complete the upgrade, but the HDD are now in.
The upgrade consists of 4 new HDDs totaling 2.3 TB and 2 RAM modules 32 GB, for a total of 64 GB.
Today, I managed to boot up the computer, and as of right now, everything appears to be operating as it should.
However, the channel has not had any new videos posted in the last two weeks, and as a result, it is doing poorly.
I’m hoping to be able to upload some content and resume work in the next few days.
13/09/24 — New YouTube statistics sent via email for the previous month:
I’ve finally resumed work, though there is still some work to be done at the office. Nevertheless, it is almost finished, and I’m delighted to see that work on the channel has resumed after a hiatus.
17/09/24 — New YouTube info:
Weekly recap:
New milestone reached more than 100 followers on x.com
This goal has been really difficult to achieve, but I am gaining followers thanks to my new tactic of sharing free game codes that I got from Amazon Prime.
Currently standing at 106 Followers.
Not much work will get accomplished today as there is no electricity here.
22/09/24 — Google sent me an email, Stating that I must update my Adsense account information because they want further details, failing which the account would be canceled. All they have to do is confirm that it is me. I’ve provided them with the information, and they should respond to me in a few days. I’ll keep you informed on this development.
I just discovered this when I opened my earn tab on YouTube Studio:
I shall have to wait till the letter (PIN) arrives. I’m hoping it arrives soon!
23/09/24 — My account is now verified. Now I just have to wait for the PIN.
24/09/24 — I decided to use a new design on the thumbnails. The wording is all that has changed.
New design:
Depending on the thumbnail’s backdrop, the new thumbnail’s text will either be red, black, and white or red, white, and black. It will adjust to fit the coloring so that it will appear on all thumbnails.
The previous thumbnails:
The letters are now red, black, and white (New design) instead of white, black, and red. As you can see above from a previous thumbnail.
Please share your thoughts on this with me.
19:00 —Received this via my Adsense account:
I’m not sure when I’ll get this, but hopefully soon.
In My Email:
Found this on the web:
All we can do now is wait for it.
We’ll see what occurs, and I’ll keep you all informed.

Here it is:

The last Panel I occasionally won’t display this for privacy concerns.
02/10/24 — Monthly recap:
03/10/24 — New milestone hit:
Currently at 850 subscribers; 150 more to reach 1000.
04/10/24 — Today, I made some updates to my merchandise store, including a few new things and a new layout. I’m thinking about adding some of my merchandise to the end of the shorts in the hopes that it will attract more attention and clicks to my merchandise. We’ll see how it turns out. If this works out, I’ll keep you folks informed.
This video still needs a lot more to be included. These are photographs since I’m unable to post the video here, which prevents me from showing it to you.
This is the merchandise store’s link:
07/10/24 — New milestone:
Almost made 1 dollar today!! 🤣
But it is an achievement nonetheless.
Which I am very happy about!
Finally.
The thumbnails I created have utilized 2 separate apps.
These apps are called Gimp and Paint 3D. I had to pick up some new abilities in Gimp since, as some of you may know, Paint 3D is being deprecated. From now on, I will solely use Gimp as my primary thumbnail editing program because I now have the know-how to utilize it and produce faster and better thumbnails.
Here are the stats for September:

Subs Total 852
I did not reach my goal of 857 this month.
I am going to place another goal of only 20 subs, we will see if I can hit this goal for next month.
Goal total subs = 872
I like to add another new goal which is to make $100 (Total)
Goal = 100$
Total Made = 17.49$ (+13.07$ from last month)
I’m very certain that privacy considerations will prevent me from displaying this in the future. For the time being, I will, but I’m not sure how long I’ll display this data.
With Rennes advice and the help he has given me I hope to do better!!

“Anyway, do that and you’ll start seeing great follower growth. It’s true that a lot of those followers won’t interact with your stuff- but don’t think like it’s supposed to be everyone reading everything. That’s silly. Instead, think about it like advertising- they’re all now going to see your articles from time to time on their feed. That’s free advertising. If 10 people out of every 100 click, be that’s a 10% conversion rate. In advertising, 10% is pretty standard. Don’t think small- reach for 10,000+ followers.”
