“Don’t vlog for views, vlog for your viewers,” — vlognation.com

Our way of communicating with each other has changed drastically in a short time. We used to keep our thoughts in journals, but now Internet users are turning to blogs to share what’s on their mind. If done right, blogging or video blogging (vlogging) can turn into a very successful career.

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting with Alisha Marie, one of the top social media vloggers on YouTube, as she took part in a meet-and-greet at the JCPenny at the Superstition Center Mall in Mesa. I was able to witness first-hand the much anticipation of her fans – also known as “Macbabies” – who traveled from all over to meet her.

Alisha Marie, also known by her username macbby11, has created a solid foundation with her work. She started her vlog with makeup tutorials and has gradually added comedy and lifestyle videos as well. In her clips, she shows us how not to take ourselves too seriously by making fun of herself throughout her comedy sketches.

At the event, she said she feels most proud in having been able to hit 4 million subscribers. “I never want to forget where I came from, and I constantly remember that!” she said.

She stands with only a few vloggers who post new videos every week, which means hard work and countless hours of editing. With her popularity growing so fast, she’s already had the opportunity to work with huge companies like JCPenney, Keds, P&G, just to name a few.

Alisha is a great inspiration to her viewers on never giving up on your dreams. Her message is positive and has been well received. She is currently out promoting the tour “Girls Night In” that kicked off in Mesa, and will be concluding in New York City in September, hitting a total of 24 cities. The tour, styled by JCPenney, also includes YouTube stars Niki and Gabi, Jessie Paege and Alyson Stoner.

Tickets are available on FullscreenLive.com. The tour is also being streamed at live.me
