As a beginner, you should start by studying these links we’ve posted in the guides section. Are there for a reason, not just to be posted.
You would find there some very good video tutorials and talks exactly about how to run your LN node.
My direct advice for your question:
- don’t let the greed consume you. LN is like a living organism and need time to grow
- for a starter you will need more than just 4 channels
- you would need inbound and outbound channels
- I suggest to start with 0 base fee and use more ppm fee. Start low, let the channel grows and slowly increase the ppm fee when you see that your side of liquidity dried up.
Consider your LN channels as water pipeline and you are the master of the pipes controlling the flow and be sure the water always flow.
