Here is a list of Deaf and hard-of-hearing content creators. Since I am aware of no existing list of Deaf or hard-of-hearing content creators, I decided to create one using JoshiesWorld. JoshiesWorld’s website receives several thousand viewers daily, so these Deaf and hard-of-hearing content creators can gain more recognition. This list is not exhaustive and will be updated periodically as I identify additional items. If you are a Deaf or hard-of-hearing content creator and didn’t see your name on the list below, please let me know so I can add you. If you aren’t a Deaf/HOH content creator but know someone who is, please let me know by leaving a comment below or emailing me. If you are on the list but want to be removed from it or would like to update, correct, or add a personal website or a link to your social media list (a page on your website that has a list of your social media, an example like mine here), please let me know, and I will do so. I need your website address (personal, blog, online diary, a website that represents you, online biography, your photography/artist/author/writer website, creator/influencer website, etc., not commercial, an online shop, etc.), Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, and a link to your social media accounts list.
