    I think the biggest surprise is never quite knowing which video is going to suddenly rocket - no amount of planning can seem to really predict that one. Hence - we all just keep rolling the video and trying to give these ideas a slightly different spin and production. Good to see you have yourself a nice little Evergreen Video in your collection :)

    • @TheBonsaiGarden
      @TheBonsaiGarden  9 днів тому +1

      You are so right - sometimes the great video with days of filming and editing can be a stinker in terms of views, which is a shame.
      Onwards to the next video in my to do list… So many ideas, but just simply not enough time…🤗🙏

    We broke the bank at just under two dollars last month. Of course, UA-cam doesn't let go of cash like that all at once, so we're waiting for the total to be enough to total the service charge for forwarding.. Jason, that was honestly inspiring.

    • @TheBonsaiGarden
      @TheBonsaiGarden  2 дні тому

      Yeah, in the UK there is a lower threshold for payment of £60. UA-cam holds onto the money until it surpasses that amount, then pays it over at the end of the month.
      Bonsai UA-cam is both bonsai and UA-cam and for success you have to play the UA-cam game a bit.
      Keep at it Patricia. I always say watching your content is like popping round for coffee and a relaxed chat with your bonsai obsessed neighbour. 💪❤️

    Thank you for sharing your insights Jason. I know how much time and effort even making my little hobby videos takes. Without quality Creators such as yourself UA-cam would not exist. It does make me feel sad that peoples creativity and hard work is never rewarded fully and the big corporations make so much money of the efforts of others. Take care 💚

    Thank you Jason, this has been a very interesting video. I especially loved the delivery graphic!! That was really funny! I have been grappling with the decision to start a channel for junk journals, not bonsai as I only started bonsai this year and only have a handfull of trees that have survived to this point in the year. But I do a lot of crafts, (quilting and paper crafts) and might start one with that. Not sure but I would love to see your video on your process of putting a video together.

    • @TheBonsaiGarden

      It’s difficult to indicate what income and revenue from different genres and niches might be - a lot to do with how big or specialist the market is, and yet budgets for the sort of people and businesses that might advertise to your potential viewers. Finance, health and fitness, cars and holidays will attract big marketing budgets and consequently advertising income. Bonsai is somewhat niche so relatively low income.
      That behind the scenes making of is in the pipeline. Bear with me. 🤗👍

    • @TheBonsaiGarden

      There are lots of videos on UA-cam suggesting how to get started. Look for something like “how to start a UA-cam channel in 2024”.
      ua-cam.com/video/Lk_4GUymeOI/v-deo.htmlsi=N0ssJBlrpAu4N06t
      From there it’s a matter of deciding on your niche, style and content. Start by filming, experimenting and learning how to improve something with each video. I do ALL my scripting, shooting and editing on an iPhone.
      I will be going through my own process at some point shortly to show each step I go through from start to finish.

    So, if I’m hearing you correctly, the best way to drive your revenue is to watch (without skipping), like and comment, correct?
    Does watching at x2 speed effect your “hours watched” matrix?
