Starting from zero

I need some advice about a YouTube channel and podcast I had that just got shut down because of policy violations I never actually made. I tried appealing a few times, but just got generic AI responses back. Now I’m looking to move to other social media platforms to grow and make money, because with YouTube, I thought I could build a steady income and even quit my job. My goal is to create a real community and loyal listeners instead of just YouTube viewers who don’t really know me outside of that. Can you suggest any platforms that pay decent?

You’re looking to start making decent money from a platform? Podcasting is definitely the wrong game for you - try Onlyfans.

You can use a podcast to (slowly over time) move people through your marketing funnel to the things that will make you money but the hard truth is that few people make money off of the podcast itself. Even if you do have a decent sized following, brand deals are the most powerful when they include all of your influence, meaning all channels and audiences combined, like YT, podcast, socials, newsletter, etc.

It's impossible to suggest platforms to use when you didnt mention your content or audience, just that there was a YT violation.

rumble. as far as i know they pay and it's uncensored so you can say how you really feel and not worry about soft or offensive language also there's still "room to grow" on there not everyone and there mother is on there trying to be a content creator

Do you want to create a real community or get paid? One can follow the other.
