Escaping the Algorithm: Why You Need to Own Your Audience and Content
As an independent creator, it's crucial to take control of your content rather than relying solely on platforms like YouTube and Twitter. In this episode, we discuss the importance of owning your creative work by building your own website, diversifying your content distribution, and monetizing directly with fans. Learn why you should centralize your videos, posts, music, and more on your own site to escape algorithms and potential censorship. Discover how to leverage social media to drive traffic while retaining control of your content. We talk about various options for building your creative hub from WordPress to Ghost and beyond. Don't cede power as a creator - own your distribution, audience, and destiny by taking charge of your content ownership.
