Just go shopping and do research on the hottest styles. For example, maxi dresses are worn by lots of people now. Since teenagers love the prom, post an article about the newest prom dresses.

Question

I love the idea of sharing my ideas and skits on the Internet. My best friend and I have made social media accounts and a YouTube channel, but we're having trouble with helping our channel grow. Any advice?

Community Answer

Growing a channel is hard to do when you're just starting out. Share your channel with your other friends and your family and ask them to share it with others as well. Share your channel on Twitter, Instagram, FB, Tumblr and others. If your channel is not growing fast, don't give up; if you keep posting what you love, people will come. Just be patient and keep putting out the type of content you enjoy.

Question

What if I have a limited amount of social media time?

Community Answer

Use the time as wisely as possible, and don't stress out about it. Look at Ryan Higa, he releases YouTube videos only once every couple of weeks. Just live your life, and if anything eventful happens, try sharing it on social media, or if you did something spectacular, share that!
