6. Why would someone read your posts or listen to the YouTube over already available alternatives?

Taking this as a sample of your writing, it has serious flaws. It is repetitious and the lack of paragraphs makes it hard to read.

I have no idea how old you are, but this writing would get a poor grade in a good high school English class. If your goal is to be a journalist, you probably need to take writing and journalism classes.

As to content, it might help to link to a sample or at least explain your expertise.
