[@heynate3083]

Dina! I NEVER comment on videos but I just have to say you deserve all the credit in the world! As a fellow etsy seller its so refreshing to see someone posting their journey and inspiring others entrepreneurs to start their shop. We're all rooting for you!

[@DinaLu]

Omg Nate thank you SO much!!! I just checked out your channel! Congrats on the youtube growth :)

[@realmoneystrategies]

Very impressive 👏

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!

[@lornakelleherart]

So happy that your channel was suggested to me! I found you in January when that video blew up, and I just love your honesty and how your personality shines through. It's also really inspiring for channels like mine and others who are trying to invest in their channels more and not quit when it seems like it'll never happen! Thank you for the informative video, and congrats on hitting over 22K!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much Lorna!! ❤️

[@JoywithPlants]

Thank you so much for your encouragement. Just found your channel & I was so down & discouraged with the lack of growth over the past 2 years but you just helped encouraged me to keep going. Thank you so much!

[@DinaLu]

You got this Milly! 💪 Thank you so much!

As an OG sub - congrats yo!

[@DinaLu]

Awwww!!! Thanks for following along since the beginning! ♥️

[@veec.3367]

Hi Dina! I commented on your last video telling you how I’ve lost motivation. Well guess what? That same day, I actually got my first sale on Etsy! I just made my shop last month as well so I was very surprised. Along with your videos and my first sale on Etsy, it’s definitely got me so pumped! Im excited to see where this year takes me. Thank you so much again for sharing your journey 🙏

[@DinaLu]

OMG!! That's amazing!!!!!! CONGRATS!

[@alandeb]

7 months into our travel vlogging journey. Loved watching your vids - it’s especially beneficial to see how long it took and how much you make once you’re making money from your channel. Still working on that! 😊 And congrats 🎉 on blowing up! 👍🏻

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much! And congrats on starting the channel! I see you're in Southeast Asia - maybe we will cross paths one of these days!

[@alandeb]

@@DinaLu Yes, that would be great! 👍🏻😊

[@lamaro218]

So so happy and proud of you Dina!🎉 I believe the effort we put in doesn’t go “nowhere” and although we may not see the rewards of our efforts, energetically it goes somewhere and we eventually will see it come to life! Thank you for inspiring us to never give up! 💖

[@DinaLu]

I love this! Thanks Lamaro!

[@Zdrowe_Zmiany]

thank you girl ! I NEED THAT 💖 I think I will have the same analytics sooooon 😁

[@DinaLu]

You got this! Thank you!

[@Bieber.World.]

Nice dear keep it up your 100k subscribers very soon 🎉

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much!

[@Easy_Forex_Strategy]

Even your editing is amazing i have been following you since 1k . You grew so fast in the past few months. I think i got lucky to reach 1k subs and 4000 watch hours on my second video in 1 month

[@DinaLu]

Oh wow that's amazing! Congrats to you too and thank you!!

[@RondelleDesigns]

Another great video! You’re so personable and fast becoming my favourite channel

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much Rondelle!

[@sarastilleke]

This is so inspiring. I’ve been following your channel since you “blew up,” and it’s so exciting to follow along on this journey with you. I hope to experience the same thing for my own channel someday!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much Sara! ♥️ Keep going on your channel, I'm rooting for you!

[@sarastilleke]

@@DinaLu thank you! The KZbin community is so positive and supportive!

[@MikeBSalazar]

Beautiful work. Thank you for always sharing Dina

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Mike!

[@LearnEnglishWithJess]

Thanks for sharing all your insider analytics by the way!

[@DinaLu]

My pleasure!

[@jamie5252]

Subscribed coz I’m literally on this journey with you haha. Etsy is like $400 a month shy of letting me quit my job + starting a KZbin channel this year 🎉🎉

[@DinaLu]

WOW that's huge Jamie! Congrats to you! 🥳

[@jemsfloralstudiotheacademy7091]

Thank you Dina! Your video was recommended to me when your Etsy video blew up and you are totally inspiring. I’m trying to grow my channel and hope to one day have the same outcome as you. Keep smashing it girl! Xxx

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much!!!

[@caz_wilson]

Congratulations! This is so inspiring! I’ve just rated my YT so this is great to hear that it is possible!

[@DinaLu]

You got thisss 💪 Thanks Caz!

[@stylerefinement]

Inspirational! Thank you for sharing your journey. It's encouraging to hear from someone with experience in "blowing up" that dedication and hard work eventually pays off! Hello from Vancouver 🥰

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Jenn! ❤️

[@shannonw5999]

So happy for you!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Shannon!

[@danthesafariguy]

Success is dependent upon asking the right questions! Using your data effectively is essential to understanding growth and leveraging those KPI's to continue growing! Great Job Dina!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Dan!

[@karmen1265]

Thank you so much for being real, growing is so hard! It's good to know everyone has different paths and it will happen when the time is right! I hope everyone else has good luck this 2023 year, we've all totally got this!☺

[@DinaLu]

Absolutely! Thank you Karmen! ❤️

[@LennyYT]

Go all in breaking everything down in great detail 🙏🙏🙏

[@DinaLu]

🙌🙌🙌

[@MotifMusicStudios]

It's so wonderful to hear these behind the scenes updates! Huge congrats, Dina!

[@MotifMusicStudios]

SO excited to see that growth for you and income coming in!

[@MotifMusicStudios]

Love your conversational topic and that's so wonderful it's a style that feels most yourself too!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much!! That means a lot 😊

[@TaylorHaselton]

Love this video so much! Thank you for the transparency and tips. You deserve to have your channel blow up even more. That RPM and CPM is great! Mine is so low and it can be frustrating ($9 and $3) and I don't get why. You give me motivation to not give up because you never know when a video can take off! THANK YOU!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much! Yeah I'm actually quite surprised my CPM/RPM are that high lol. I don't know how it works haha!

[@TaylorHaselton]

@@DinaLu welcome! And I don’t really either haha.

[@ellie-jane]

So inspiring Dina ❤️ i actually discovered you and your channel through your 1 month of etsy video and ironically, I have no interest in selling on Etsy. But I watched it and I just enjoyed your energy, the way you speak - so I subscribed. Happy that I get to learn from your perseverance on a difficult platform to grow in. Keep doing your thing girl!!! (Hope to be a digital nomad someday too 🤓)

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much Ellie Jane!! You got thisss 💪

[@asimbehar]

You are an inspiration Dina 🐱 and yeah it does feel like we are friends 😁😊

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Asim! 😊

[@asimbehar]

@@DinaLu ma pleasure 🥰

[@AlexAndMars]

Hey Dina, thanks for the inspiration. I really appreciate how open you are about your journey and I can see that with your level of focus you really deserved this. It’s also nice to see your genuine excitement about “blowing up”. My wife and I left Canada in 2015 after quitting our jobs and selling everything to travel full-time and our first destination was Vietnam as well. Although we haven’t returned, it was one of our favourite countries to visit so I’m really excited for you and hope you enjoy your time there. Thanks for the tips and keep doing what you do. As an idea for your channel, maybe you could do one of these videos every month to track your progress and share your insights so that people behind you can learn how to roll with the ups and downs of YT. Good luck! 👍 - Alex

[@DinaLu]

Hey Alex, thank you so much for your kind words! Haha oh yes I always say "blowing up" even though for some people my level of "blowing up" isn't considered "blowing up" for them haha. But it is for me. I'm really enjoying Vietnam so far! Congrats to you two for quitting your jobs and travelling! That's so many people's dreams!

[@AlexAndMars]

@@DinaLu No worries. Please don't mistake my use of the quotations around blowing up as diminishing your success. It wasn't my intention but looking back at it now I can see that could have been perceived that way and I most certainly agree with you. It's all about your own perspective, "compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today". I think this quote is especially important for KZbinrs. If you're making your way north in Vietnam, I highly recommend Hoi An, Hue, Ninh Binh (it's like Ha Long Bay on land but less touristy) Hanoi and Sapa.

[@anesthesia101online]

Thank you for the transparency and wishing i will be there soon enough 😅

[@DinaLu]

You got this! 💪 Thank you!

[@zohabali7130]

YOU should have made a separate video about "How much I earned from youtube after my channel blew up" and I am pretty sure it would have gained more attention than any of your video. As I have seen it on many channels that their highest viewed video is the one in which they show their income. Give it try :)

[@DinaLu]

That's actually a great idea haha thank you! And I think you're probably right. I added it to my list!

[@seketestudio6488]

thank u, u gave me motivation in this hard time!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!

[@somo.digitalart]

Just keep going that what i do and thank you for sharing^^

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!

[@MrJustin-MiniLessons]

Hi Dina, I think I came across your channel when you blew up (what are the odds?.... hahaha). And it's around the same time I decided to start a youtube channel. Just wanted to say that your channel is super cool, and I hope you continue to grow and evolve :)

[@DinaLu]

Oh wow congrats to you Justin! Thank you!

[@helentsokana]

Such a great video! 👍

[@DinaLu]

Thanks so much!

[@erikvojtko9446]

So watch this video next! But I already watched it :(. Good job on the attitude towards the up and down trend on views and new subs. Some people would take the dip very hard. I am currently in the process of gathering courage to create an English channel with focus on personal finance, investing and making money online, because I have one in my native language, but there just isn't that much interest here I feel like. But that would require gathering up the courage to do it on camera I think. But videos like this are slowly pushing me further, so thanks for that! Best of luck to you.

[@DinaLu]

Thank you so much! And good luck to you :)

[@kinga2402]

Awesome! I love your content about Etsy

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!

[@LifeOfAshlynOng]

Glad that you grew so fast! Keep it up! May I ask will you do a schedule for video upload? As I am looking forward to your videos everyday!

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!! I usually post a long form video on Friday 😊 and maybe a couple of youtube shorts here and there (trying to be more consistent with shorts LOL). I'm traveling right now so sometimes the long form video doesn't go up until Saturday, Sunday, or even Monday 🤣🤣🤣 if you follow me on Instagram dinadlu you can see my latest updates for when I'll have videos come out

[@LifeOfAshlynOng]

@@DinaLu Alright! Thanks for the update 😘

[@jambulancedj]

i like the analytics reviews

[@DinaLu]

🥳🥳

[@LearnEnglishWithJess]

Dina! You inspire me and make me feel like this is possible. I gave up on my essential oil niche (Jessential Life) because I think it was a hopeless cause, but I'm hoping to grow on this channel :)

[@DinaLu]

That's awesome Jess! All the best to your business 🥳

[@leahlovee]

This is so inspiring 🥰

[@DinaLu]

Thank you!!

[@theflipacademy]

Hey Dina, so did shorts help your channel or hurt your channel? Thanks for sharing your journey

[@DinaLu]

Didn't hurt my channel at all. If anything, it helped! (But not a huge amount lol)

[@lifesprinklesbytamara]

So inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

[@DinaLu]

Tamara, how did you even find this video? It's unlisted and not published yet 🤔🤔

[@lifesprinklesbytamara]

​@@DinaLu wow really! It was on my page and showed it had only one view aven after a couple of hrs so that seemed strange but I just watched it and assumed YT had a glitch. I can still watch it now, no idea why and it has 8 views now. Sorry that I accidentally got to it😊

[@DinaLu]

@@lifesprinklesbytamara Hahah that's so weird!!! It's ready for publishing except I just haven't finished the thumbnail... I'm going to look into this hahaha thanks for letting me know

[@auntylou1000]

Thank you for sharing. Did you do any marketing of your channel?

[@DinaLu]

I promote my videos on my instagram, linkedin, email list and personal facebook account!

[@MrTmac916]

Hi Dina. Please help me? I'm stuck on the create listing. I went Canva to create something and got an error message when I put it in the create list.

[@hayleeanderson1786]

Can you do videos of editing KZbin videos and what you use? You are amazing

[@DinaLu]

Thank you Haylee! I have a video editor for that!

What your analytics say about your demographic and other attributes pertaining your audience?

Hi do you do 1:1 consultations?

[@DinaLu]

Hey Marquetita, can you send me a DM on instagram about this? (dinadlu)

[@LearnEnglishWithJess]

Wait... you think this happens on average 2-4 years... haha, maybe I should go back to my essential oil niche haha

[@DinaLu]

Might be! 🤔

[@TestimonyQuarters]

It's funny with KZbin journey. How can one take 1 or 2 years to accumulatea 1000 people and right after that just triple of that in less than a month?!!its well

[@DinaLu]

I know right? 😅

[@LeahWithTheList]

Hi Dina! So happy for your growth do you have a email to connect with you?
