      This. YT are pushing people to Premium (ad free) - basically, Google create an artificial problem and then sell the solution for £££. Sucks that the creators don't get a cut of the ad revenue, I wonder if they still get the cut from Premium viewers...?

      yeah, and its much worse on the TV apps. most ads are now 60 sec before you can skip, then when you skip they show you 1 more ad after the skip. also there are typically several 60 sec ad breaks per video.

      @@uscgkenny Have you tried backing out of the video and then replaying it? Sometimes that makes the current ad break end in the app. Unfortunately, it often starts at the beginning of the video, too.

      One of the things I’ve noticed on UA-cam at least is if I’m watching a lot of it, I get a lot more ads. If I take a break for a few days, It slowly increases the ad count probably in some way that follows a brain pattern.

If it wasn't for my consistency and hard work (and a little bit of Famester), I wouldn't have made anything.

    The value of being on UA-cam has any ad revenue. It’s the ability to give a call to action to your product, like your course or a product you’re getting paid to promote. So I look it UA-cam as a way to build an audience, find out how you can serve them, and promote your product to them.

    I'm happy you mentioned that it'd be more revenue if it were a long form video, because a lot of people are leaving that out when they're talking about shorts nowadays. Don't get me wrong, shorts revenue is bonkers low (I've made $208 on a short with 2 million views), but longer form is considerably better in the RPM department (although we'd all argue it should be higher... 😂).

  • @ClearColorCloud
    @ClearColorCloud 2 місяці тому +1

    It seems to me that the UA-cam views probably are more important as advertising for the other revenue streams, than as a revenue stream itself. I think that's something that people overlook when they see that you make more money from Patreon, for example.. people have to know about you before they get to your Patreon.

    Normal people have no idea what it's like to stand on stage and not hear what you're playing because the speakers are radiating towards the listener.

    someone did something and the following happened. But yea, if you have analytics setup right, now you got a real hotlist of each who were engaged for the full video that went viral. Like it had the production value, from your investment in skill, tools, and mind; but also "it just resonated".
    So that 2k feels like peanuts with all the effort you put into it, but i'm saying 20% of the mass that were engaged, could prolly buy that patreon of yours. And you have a pointer to their profile, if you had google analytics set up right.
    Prolly all over the world, prolly would buy tickets. I'd have free...

    Well done, good video, as a singer, in ears are great, mainly my voice and guitar, my highest rating video was over 2 million for a video I did of a humongous Dog we had in the Rescue I used to help at, which went viral. I have over 80 published songs on Spotify and all the streaming platforms, I think, as a way of getting music distributed they are great, but, unless you get millions of listeners, artists are getting totally ripped off, no change there, I perform music for enjoyment, as a day job, it sucks, been there done that, can sell you a T-shirt.
