I'm glad your still uploading Jake.
Your kindness and wholesome humour give me comfort in a dark world.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your content, I find you really enjoyable and genuine. I’m just in the portion of your audience that doesn’t watch all your videos. Most of the topics don’t interest me, but anything about UA-cam always intrigues me, so I’m happy to be here for things like this 😊
I would even pay to see Dr Jake on stage, I love the way you present information
The algorithm is a mysterious beast to say the least. But I would say the more subs interested in different subjects means that when a video goes out and your CTR is lower, you'll generally have no chance of it going viral. That's why you see those channels based on one niche like Minecraft for example do well because they have a high CTR and watch time. Their audience is focused. You can still have a video go viral but it's a lot harder. Usually a video will go through a test period to an outside audience and if it ticks enough boxes it will get moved onto the next stage, tick enough boxes again and it will move up again. It's all done in stages. That's why sometimes you might have a video go viral and then suddenly die. It failed to tick enough boxes for the next stage. This is why click bait still works well. It get's that high CTR. You then need a high watch time. Pretty much golden from there. But that's easier said than done.
Of course, you have to focus, Jake. UA-cam analytics has already told you not to be a Jack of All Trades! I subscribed because of your first, and very successful, "how much do I make" videos, and then you dropped the ball! If you want to make money on youtube, you need to focus. Don't go from "I will show you success secrets of youtube" to "Legos, wheee!" cuz it's irrelevant. I subscribed for a reason, and if you don't upload content I want, I'll change the channel. Good job so far, by the way, and I wish you success, but please find your path and follow it!
I have to say, your videos are now part of my Saturday morning routine, the wife and kids go out to the various clubs etc on a saturday morning so im left at home with some valuable quiet time...maccies breakfast in hand i always pop you on as im stuffing my face with a sausage and egg mcmuffin..please never change
Great video telling it as it is not many do that and it is important for new you tubers to now what they are getting them self into and how much effort people really do put in. I was really surprised how little you actually got for all your effort. Don't be disheartened like you said hopefully things will pick up in the future for everybody. I guess it's really tough times for everyone at moment hopefully next year will get better. 👍
Nice to see plain numbers. Looked it up after seeing your short. I check my subs page regularly but don't click on everything in it.
Interesting and very honest video Dr Jake. I've just subbed, so hopefully you'll get to 66K subs soon. I mainly watch your revenue videos as I have not much interest in Lego. I do think that niche is very important. The algorithm needs to know who is going to be interested in your videos. If you release a video that isn't your usual type of video then the algorithm is still going to push your video to your usual viewer type. If they aren't interested because the subject has changed they may not click. I think it may take the algorithm a while to catch up if you change the focus of your channel completely, but that might require a new subscriber base. However I'm very much a novice when it comes to the algorithm, and I hope it learns your new??? focus soon. Thanks again
It's a predicament and a puzzle. I believe you have the ability to solve it (if you choose to). In the meantime, we are still behind you 100%. Carry on Sir!
I really like your stuff. I do hope you continue doing it as I find your sense of humor and personality endearing. Good luck!
As long you enjoy doing it as a hobby. The Paramount vid brought back a lot of embarrassing memories of putting the awful stuff in. The analytics are interesting as is the time it takes to put a vid together and publish it.
The notification bell from what I can see is irrelevant. I have clicked the bell on a lot of channels I follow who don't show up in my home screen.
I think the issue is really with the 'Home' page on YT. Most stuff on my 'Subscriptions' page doesn't ever appear on my 'Home' page unless I have watched the channel very recently.
@@matthewc1m2m3m2 Yes same I follow allot of small gamers channels so always try drop by to leave 👍 very rare they appear on my home page much depends on timing of notifications for me (only watched this vid because I was bored ) 😂
I always enjoy watching the good doctor on a Saturday morning. I think the problem is simply that there are far too many people on UA-cam now with so much content being uploaded that it's become a victim of its own success. UA-cam success now comes from shock videos, reaction videos and people that scream and shout as they dance around looking like idiots. It's what I call the You've been framed effect.
You've been framed was a TV show in the 90s where people sent in their home videos of funny things happening, back in the days when it was rare to have a video recorder. The first series was brilliant and so funny but then once it got popular and they started paying for each clip, you could tell that many of the clips were faked. People would set things up and pretend it was an accident and the whole value of the show was diluted.
I've been through a similar thing to you on my channel where I changed from being a driving instructor to a hypnotherapist. I lost a lot of views and it's crazy how people would rather watch mindless car crash videos than learn how to change their whole life but that's the sad state of the world today.
Couldn't agree more 😊👍
I only watch a handful of the videos you upload but stay subscribed for them rare gems. To get more constant views (engagement) in my opinion you need to stick with a niche or you’d be better off having a second channel and separating your content, 2 videos a month on each. If you are planning to stick with the one channel think about 2 videos a week (yes it would be more work) so you can capture all your subscribers.
If it’s just a hobby then the payments are just a bonus and should be treated as such? Hope you keep going and find what works for you!
Have just started uploading videos and I am still learning the basics, so your video caught my eye.I always appreciate honesty and transparency thanks for the insights.
I am here for the asmr. Keep it going Jake.
I love your videos. They cheer me up...
Hi Dr Jake, I am a long time subscriber. Today for the first time in ages, your video was in my suggested feed. Normally I have to search for your content manually.
does it not appear in the "subscriptions" tab on the left of the youtube page?..
I don’t have the bell hit but because UA-cam knows my habits I get your videos promoted to me every Saturday. I also try to watch the ads every time.
I don’t remember how I started watching your videos but my wife asks me almost every week if I have watched your videos. No matter the video I always feel like it was worth my time. Keep up the great work!
See you next week for another video!
I think your personality of being a geek has an advantage toward being a friendly approachable person! Make more videos as I will watch them. All the best mike
Don't get too down hearted Dr Jake, personally, I enjoy your videos but yes I have to agree with some of the other comments here. Try to focus, choose a subject matter and stick to it. Good luck
Subscriber here - this showed in my feed for the first time today. 3 months after it dropped... Lesson learned, bell clicked.
Keep up the great work Jake. Even though I am huge LEGO fan, I still find your videos interesting and they always seem to put a smile on my face.
I ike your style, Jake. A little bit of everything.
Suggestion for a video: Pineapple on pizza... yea or nay?
Whatever you choose someone would disagree. It'll be a hoot :D
I for one love a paramount wall partition!
Surprised the chocolate video didn't do better. Maybe a direct comparison between 'plant' and dairymilk?
This was a really interesting video. Thanks for sharing.
Fyi doc, your videos are earning 2 to 5 times as much of the amount of income that I get from my videos! So all depends on the type of adverts that are shown, the view time that you get and other factors that are difficult to quantify.
Cosidered unlisting your old videos so your audience changes?
That's an interesting concept. I wonder if it would work?
The subscription feed is how I interact with UA-cam, but I’m old.
I'm not surprised. The UA-cam market has got a lot more competitive. Your long term viewers will likely have subscribed to lots more channels, so they'll be seeing your videos recommended less, just because there is so more content. I used to see your videos being recommended to be a lot , but less so now, and I suspect its because (a) I've subscribed to so many other content creators (b) UA-cam recommends the creators who get lots of traffic (c) like you say, the subjects your channel covers are so broad
I eventually get around to just about each and every one of my subscriptions. It may take a month or so to do it as I have around 2300 videos in my "watch later" folder, but I am determined to watch all of them. Sometimes I will watch a channels content to completion in a binge.
As somebody who has 20,000 watch hours but still not hit the magic 1,000 subscribers after uploading consistently for the last two years, I can definitely relate to the UA-cam shenanigans and its impact on small channels. That said, I'd be delighted with a few £ for every 1,000 views because currently I get nothing, although hopefully that will be changing very soon.
Still enjoy your videos and thanks for sticking with it.
My pity subscription will stay with you for the time being, Dr Jake 😘
I'd say to look at your highest view videos and try to make videos of that type. Some people will make separate channels for different types of videos. So you might want to consider that as a possibility
I started making videos this year. This summer hardly any new subscribers but while I’m enjoying making the videos I’m happy to carry on. I get absolutely no money from it all
No video on the Queen? The monarchy, republic? That could be a banger 😄 and I would like to hear your thoughts (I'm not from the UK).
Not surprised, unfortunately. Unless your god-tier, it's pennies per video. And getting from small to big on what you make is a lo-o-o-o-o-ong grind. However, I enjoy your videos and appreciate the work you do for so little return
You look jjst like James cordon cheers bro 🤝
Not sure if anyone else does this but the way I use UA-cam is I watch it in the evening. I add every new video from my subscription feed to watch later, then watch some of them but often I do t have enough time to watch all of them so I’m left with a backlog of like 3k. I almost never even look at recommendations unless I’m very bored. Hopefully that’s useful or interesting.
I also only have notifications on for just a couple of channels which don’t upload often but when they do it’s always a really good video.
Don't ever say you're a rubbish youtuber.. You most definitely are not rubbish. But you've hit the nail on the head with your disjointed audience hypothesis for sure which is without a doubt damaging your view count. I myself am currently in a perpetual financial crisis and cannot donate monthly until at least 2027, then (I hope you're still uploading) I'll join your patreon. Until then, I've liked the video and hit the notification bell (Yours is the ONLY notification bell I've activated on youtube and I'm subbed to nearly 600 channels)
At least you covered the cost of the chocolate bar.
🤣🤣🤣
This is very interesting but also depressing, so much is at a mercy to an algorithm. I just don't like the idea of a channel that's just some very specific topics and nothing else as its playing the chasing algorithm game. How much revenue do you get on these videos after the first 48 hours. How much is recieved for old high performing videos or has they tapered off as well? So if filming and editing is about 2 hrs in total I wonder how much the lifetime earnings from those, 2hrs used is.
In terms of growth I've heard many people (even shops) do the whole make it big on tiktok as its easier and then push people to the UA-cam channel or wherever else as the way to grow themselves
I used to watch your non Lego videos, but then they stopped appearing in my feed. Recently I thought, what happened Dr Jake, and refound you. Maybe you did several Lego ones I didn’t click on and UA-cam thought I wasn’t interested. With my own Love Decanters channel, I’m only dreaming of hitting a 1,000 subscribers. Lol
I watch a lot of UA-cam videos but only Dr Jake and Atomic Shrimp are the ones I rush to watch
So what you're saying is that if you want to make money on UA-cam with this channel, 3 of your monthly videos should be lego videos and the fourth should be some random DIY shit that might still be useful in 2027?
Thanks Jake for your honesty. It is a lot less money than I thought. Just a question and it doesn't apply to you, but if you hit the dislike button does that seriously affect a you tuber's income or does it not make a lot of difference?
It used to help the channel..but the "dislikes" now are no more..
@@sentimentaloldme but there is still a dislike button?? But they don't show the numbers but you can still press it?
As far as I'm aware any interaction with the video, hitting either button or making any comment (even a negative one) is still seen as engagement and is all seen as a positive thing for the video. Even though the number of dislikes are not publicly displayed the video creator can still see the number of likes and dislikes. The algorithm doesn't care and sees all engagement as a good thing.
@@LearningCurveSciencethanks!
What happened to your patreon Magnanimous Meg? She was a feature of your videos for years?
i was literally thinking this after his last video, him reading off the names was almost ingrained in my memory and i noticed Meg was missing...threw me right off lol
@@madgebishop5409 Me too, in fact I even considered unsubscribing ... but I didn't 🤣👍
@@antiquescentral it was touch and go tbf
@@madgebishop5409 I may just start randomly saying 'Magnanimous Meg' on my little channel as I'm sure it will attract views and subscribers. What do you think? 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe the loss of Magnanimous Meg is linked to the decline in views???
UA-cam is now "recruiting" creator's from other platforms and paying them a premium. No doubt they push those creator's more than small channels. They'd be stupid not to push who they are paying extra just to get them on the platform. Once the dust settles between all the platforms and the creator draft it might return to normal. I think it's probably gonna get worse first because the process is really now just starting.
Do not forget to factor in the no stay at home Covid rules, less time on people's hands = less time to view UA-cams
I am subscribed and hit the bell, but I still don’t get notifications 😢
You hit on the main problem about half way through the video: a lack of consistent subject matter. If people can't identify at least in a roundabout sort of way why they'd want to stick with your channel and UA-cam's algorithm can't easily point viewers to another related video of yours then, yeah, they're going to click away. Add in the utter randomness of some of the topics - a plant bar, really? They cost next to nothing so people can just try for themselves - and you're going to struggle. Generally people care most about researching and thus watching videos about stuff that's expensive or costs enough that there's some pause for thought. Otherwise, if you're going to review food items, it has to be a regular thing that people can reliably think you an authority on - it doesn't have to be all that you do but at least be a regular thing once a week or every other week that you do alongside other topics. Also, your thumbnails could do with some work - there's too much text obscuring the image of the thing the video's about and often the images aren't clear in the first place. It's nearly always worth taking a separate picture in good lighting of the thing, not relying on a video screengrab. My commission is 10% of all future revenue. ;)
yh, you have to stick to a niche really to grow faster and get more views as a poportion of your audience. my tiktok grows fast for such a small neche because its just knex roller coasters. so my views on tiktok are in the millions per month. and anytime i upload a skit or meme somthing not to do with knex the views tank. I allways knew that the same thing happends to youtube. you grow an audience based on personality over time. years. but you cant reach that dedicated audience if you dont stick to a set type of videos long enough for youtube to show your videos to thoes people. every time you switch topic or meche its like youtube is resetting your "place in the algorythem que"
Definitely true 😁👍
Click the bell icon, set it to "All" and switch on UA-cam notifications in your phone settings. It works then.
PS: Yes it's a labour of love for us non-monetised small channels with complicated editing (but YT still shows adds, grrr!)
hi the lego is over at this time you are just fun man
You need to put out one video per day
Then outsource the editing
That will free up time to film
Then you outsource the filming
And then you're on a roll.
What you need to stop doing
Making videos about how little views your videos usually get.
I want to see you do a full day of lego
Nope i'm not surprised at the money value. I get it all the time at work, 'you must be thinking about retiring as your channel is getting so many subs!'. It's only when people get to that 1K subs mark and 4K hour watch time they starting getting some money and then it's only like pennies a day across their whole channel in the early stages. They start throwing more and more videos at the channel and nothing really moves, you then realise that your watch time is going down so you have to maintain that initial freshold otherwise your channel become demonitized but you still earning pennies. Then the truth surfaces of why they are doing it, is it the love, or is it just the money? Like yourself I have Patreon and Ko-fi and that helps soften that blow but if it wasn't for the love I would of quit and got myself a second job of a couple of hours flipping burgers as it will pay more. I see a lot of channels in my niche just get abandoned at 1K. They spend years and years building that audience only to end their commitment after that first first payment comes in (and you have to hit a certain freshhold to have the money released so I bet some have just gone before getting a payout). I wasn't prepared for that day and it was a kick in the teeth but you realised then at a psychological level why you do it, and I am still doing it :) I believe if you keep going and run it like a business of love then one day you will be able to quit your day job, but it takes a certain mindset to do that.
Wow I didn’t know you were still doing videos. Strange little channel chugging away
Sure if you're into it for the money you'll need to stream line your subjects. That aside I find your presentation and topics great.
Subscribers means NOTHING when it comes to youtube. Its all about views. There is one youtuber i watch, has 2 million subs, but on average, 1 985 000 of his subs, do NOT watch his output
On the whole I enjoy your content but I think you’ve done this particular video or very similar a few times now and for that reason, I’m out 😀 Sorry #dragonsden
