New Videos from TFP-Help us out some!

[Leebo]

Well you read that right, we need your help, again. One thing Rebecca and I kept asking ourselves over the years was “what’s next?” Where does TFP go from here? The answer that kept entering our heads was almost always the same, YouTube. So it’s time we make that happen. Last night we launched our first two videos with hopes of adding more in the future. We have NO idea the path these videos will take as the future shows itself, but these are a start.

Trouble Free Pool

With over 200,000 members, TFP is the largest and most influential pool & spa website on the Internet. The reason is simple: TFPC (Trouble Free Pool Care) is...

We ask that you please click on the link above and give these first two a view. If you enjoy them, please subscribe for future content. We’re gonna surely be one of the slowest content providers on your list but we hope that in time we evolve into something enjoyable. As always we thank all of you who have Supported TFP with your donations as it’s your funding that’s allowing us to enter this new market.

DONE!

Love the animation videos....they’re almost as good as your personal, amateur pole-dancing workout videos ?

The SLAM video is great. I just sent it to someone who is battling a green pool but is currently "pool stored." Fingers crossed they will stop going to the pool store and SLAM that green monster.

I never knew that you were such a good artist!
Well put together videos.

Hi Lee,
Great start on the TY channel. It will surely be very useful.

I am just curious, are you guys going to merge the TF100 test kit channel and the Trouble Free Pool one. Or is the plan to keep them separate?

 

[Steve_in_C]

The pool video shows the OTO chlorine test instead of the FAS-DPD test. Other than that it's very well done.

I’d like to thank @Texas Splash and @YippeeSkippy for TFP’s newest video. I tossed the challenge to these two of describing the FC/CYA Ratio and how to use it........and what an amazing job they did!

Nice start but TFP wasn’t the one to recognize cya/cal relationship. It was the old Pool Forum.

 

[Steve_in_C]

Well done!

 

[YippeeSkippy]

Nice start but TFP wasn’t the one to recognize cya/cal relationship. It was the old Pool Forum.

And as the video says: "TFP learned early on..." and remember that TFP people were a part of that forum too.

 

[Leebo]

One of our main goals for these videos are to supplement the forum as these videos will never be able to completely paint the entire photo. Truth be told each of these animations will be about 300 words and in honesty, most of you won’t even watch the entire 2 minutes. In the future we hope to use these videos as a basic guide for new users and give these users general directions where to surf the website to learn more about a certain topic. We would love to link back to the website at various parts of the video, but YouTube won’t let us. ?

Truth is almost every website would love to have links all over YouTube as they’re HUGE for a site’s SEO score. YouTube in the past has been flooded with spam so awhile back they put in safeguards to block Spam. Now YouTube requires so many views and so many hours of view time and so many subscribers before they allow you to insert links into a video to your website.

I ask that you please help us get these requirements. All we ask is to watch the videos and subscribe if you enjoy. Free and hopefully you’ll learn a bit along the way. In return hopefully TFP in the future will be able to use these videos to further guide users learn all about pool care.

Thank you!
