I started this channel in January of 2021 to share my knowledge of selling digital downloads on Etsy, or any other platform, as well as my experience with Print on demand. I do my best to bring you the most relevant content about selling print on demand and printables, creating interesting print on demand designs, testing myself print on demand products and their quality, as well as provide you with marketing tutorials, and so much more! I recommend many services and websites in my videos, some may contain affiliate links- which means that you can have a discounted price, or the same price, while I earn a bit of a commission for the referral- to help support this channel and the costs of producing the videos.

    While taking tutorial notes tap the screen to see the ▶️ then tap the pause to note instructions and it will change to⏸️ and tap that to start playing the video. If you want to go back 10 seconds tap to the left of the◀️symbol not on it (on it goes to the video before the present one and if you accidentally tap it you have to wait 5 seconds for the automatic commercial to hit the skip button and then tap the ▶️ button to get back to where you were and tap to the right of it) tapping to the left of the ◀️ symbol more than once goes back 10 seconds per tap. This is on an iPad-on a laptop or computer it should be the same or you may have to use the mouse and pointer-it’s been 5 or 6 years since I’ve used anything except an iPad or iPhone with an iOSystem.

My goal now is to create a new paid-subscription Blog (I've had a free one for years on TMD hosting), and I need all kinds of help to create the web site. This video has finally convinced to me choose Hostinger, and begin from there. I may have lots of questions. Thank you Mey.

    Hi Mey, Would there be a series on how to create a store for digital products on Hostinger via WordPress by any chance, please? It would be a huge help. I tried the AI and the website builder for the same but they have very limited options for themes and templates and I didn't like any one of them 😁

    I haven't done that yet... However, the website design parts are the same no matter what you sell... Hostinger might have more limitation in pre-made templates, but wordpress has 10,000 templates out there. Not sure how one can check all of them... the ones I love most are in the themes Kadence, Ocean and Astra. But with both of these builders you can drag and drop and design whatever you want.

    Yeah That’s the plan for the part 2. Just waiting for people to suggest ideas (as I mentioned) I am, however, surprised you can’t find information about that… there are probably over 20,000 videos on how to optimize blog posts for SEO and the other topics you’ve mentioned. I can squeeze it all in one video, SEO optimization has about 70 different factors, but I can explain how to do it in the written part of the blog, which is about 20% of SEO.

    You can't use Fourthwall for your blog, they don't have a blogging feature. I prefer Fourthwall for SO MANY reasons, most specified in the video about how to sell printful : kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqVq0MaGaLudn7g.html The blog concept is a way to get your products out there, as well as affiliate marketing. for example, I sell a cow painting pillow, I can make a blog post on pillow covers for cow lovers and feature 2-3 of mine, and 10 others that I am an affiliate of. OR - lets say I wanna promote jigsaw puzzles, I can make a post about ways to keep kids busy during the summer break without screens, and one of these is jigsaw puzzles- with a link to mine. There was a video on how to market using a blog explaining 6 methods in which this works: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qoCIr5qJmcTTiJM.html

    Do you have to apply for LLC when you build a website?

  • @MeyTribe

    @MeyTribe

    3 ай бұрын

    Yes & No. As far as I know- you only need an LLC when you make money, and as many people build blogs for themselves - they are not a business. BUT if you do affiliate marketing, POD, etc... you'll need to open a company in order to legally operate. I can't tell you if that is an LLC or not. I am not American, my business is not USA based, so I don't have an LLC. I have "osek Patur" license, which is relevant to my country. In order for you to know if you need an LLC you need to consult a tax accountant in your own country/state and explain to them what business model you'll have to get all that info.

    I noticed that your own laptop Mac is set to dark mode which I use too. However, there didn’t seem to be an option to make the background of any the templates dark with white text or light color text- and that is what I want-deal breaker. I don’t like reading the screen with all of that glaring white background-no one does that is why dark mode is now an option, because everyone wanted it for ease of reading. I have a blue light blocking screen but I still don’t like white backgrounds glaring while squinting to see thin black text. I didn’t see an option for changing the background screen color with the ai website builder, so is that option available when not using the ai builder? Or is WP the only one with that option?-and is that option importable into Hostinger? It’s a deal breaker because a dark background is pleasant and easier on the eyes to read so the reader will read more. The templates should include at least one dark mode theme or allow the background color to be chosen as a dark color instead of glaring white. Please let us know if this option is possible on Hostinger ?-and how?

For marketing, branding and consistency I want to use my business name. Should I buy my same domain name with a different extension like (dot)blog? Should I use a (dot)shop or (dot)store on fourthwall? Can I use a sub-domain on fourthwall if my main domain is hosted on hostinger? Any advice? Maybe this could be a topic for a video?
