I made a free course on Douple King Pawn openings

I put a lot of time into it (few hundred hours at least), 44 videos on every single reasonable variation for black against 2. Nf3

Like I said it's 100% free tho I do have a companion study with like 10x the variations plus I'm looking for students. Freemeium you could said, or as old-schoolers would say, Shareware.

Let me know your thoughts.

Note : I am aware the audio on the first 12 or so videos isn't great (was using laptop's internal mic before I sprung 15 quid for a plug-in mic), I may go back & re-record the initial videos at some point

Cheers.

Even if it's 100% free, I'm fairly sure advertising your channel in the forums goes against the ToS/forum etiquette.

Is it considered advertising if it's for something free? I see people share their websites & chess tools often here.

There is a whole subforum for sharing chess analysis & that's what I'm doing.

Also, LiChess has a whole section devoted to sharing chess YouTube videos : https://lichess.org/video so presumably there is no issue with YouTube unless someone is sharing spam which I'm not.

"Douple King Pawn"

I heard of the 'Double King's Pawn' opening, but that? Looks like that is the newest opening in chess I've never heard of!

"Is it considered advertising if it's for something free?"

Even posts like "join my team" asking people to do things for free are considered advertising.

"I see people share their websites & chess tools often here"

I try to tell them that this violates the forum etiquette.

The official Lichess video library consists of content "carefully selected" by the content team.
