Re: Making money on Youtube
^ I was doing the "Today" filter, so I'd get a few hundred results. I did your same pizzagate -"What They Won't Tell You" search, then applied the Today filter; 273 results. I only went back 3 pages of results, but no WTWTY. :) Without your boolean search, there'd be several WTWTY bandit re-ups every page.
I didn't enclose WTWTY in quotes before, when I only got 11 results.
What do you make of YT's ghosting comments? It seems to me they're "sneaky" about it, leading the commenters to believe their comment is visible to all. This means the vlogger has to approve/moderate your comments? That vid in my reply #18 above, says he's forced to approve every new commenter, but you could approve them once, & after their junk would go straight through. But his gripe was, he didn't have it set this way! His vlogger handle is #Pizzagate, so that prolly attracts extra YT scrutiny/censorship. But he also has very few subs/views.
Re: Making money on Youtube
yes I definitely think they manipulate both the YT channel creator and the commenters. Subs don't show up. Strange fluctuations in published sub numbers and views. I've also heard new post alerts don't get through to subscribers for some channels. All sorts of shenanigans.
Some issues are clearly manufactured by YT, however I think sometimes things like sub numbers can be explained by the timing of recalculations being done against databases. It may be that some statistics are updated in batches rather than real time. So Subscriber numbers or view statistics might not be instantly updated but done on another trigger, such as uploading a new video or logging into the channels back end to look at stats etc... or maybe just a scheduled time. Some kind of order might be applied. Oldest accounts first, highest subscribers first, highest views first. Country X then Y then Z. It could be any number of priorities.
Re: Making money on Youtube
Seems like the party is over at YT. Content makers are reporting between 40% and 50% drops in ad revenue. Advertisers are pulling their budgets because their ads are appearing with hate speech and fake news content.
Anyone experiencing a 40% to 50% reduction in the number of ads they have to watch through? Are YT just keeping the cash?
Re: Making money on Youtube
my partner told me recently that ads start paying off after 20K views now
Re: Making money on Youtube
^ 20k views... that's a lot! I doubt that's true, as it would rule out, guessing 95+ percent of "monetized" vids! Any YT vlogger is doing quite above average if they can break, guessing again, 10k sub's.
There've been too many vloggers I follow to list here, who've put up vids bemoaning jootube's demonetization of their not (((PC))) viewpoint videos.... ostensibly in response to an abrupt & unanimous array of YT corporate ad buyers who all had the same thought at the same time, about not wanting their product/service appearing "alongside not (((PC))) videos!" :o
Obvious sham 'reason'; and obviously a 'deep state' orchestrated clamp down on free speech, masquerading as a capitalist (advertiser) response to 'deplorable' thought/speech... similar to deep state's whole "Fake News Crisis" psyop in response to the tip of the pizza-pedogate iceberg emerging last Fall... which all the (((big social/media corps))) instantly fell into line with "fighting."
David Seaman's put up a few such vids, calling for an investigation of joogle-tube as unlawful monopoly. Seaman shows his "benign ignorance" here again though, as he imagines joogle-tube (& FB, twitter) to be a private corp in the capitalist model, rather than the arm of the deep state which they are!
3 recent Seaman vids:

The person who is topic of this one, struck me as a click bait pimp. I think I watched 1/2 of 1 video in total. Also commented before their MO seemed to be - sucker born every minute. Seems like that assessment was 100% spot on. Appears to have been renting super cars and claiming as own. I thought it dubious, the number of videos suggesting "this is my new XYZ super car", Bought wife a new $200K car. A tour of my expensive house (*which I only rent"). Guy would have to be a son of a sheik or something. Some people think he's a son of something else.

Re: Making money on Youtube
I guess the really really big yt money makers are not going to be the kinds of subjects that many on this forum would be really in to. Certainly not me as one who is trying to be not conformed to this world system, materialism etc, as much as possible.
I find certain yt subject areas interesting and psychologically healthy such as homesteading, off grid living, survival / preparedness and I like traditional Catholic sites that explain traditional Catholic teaching like True Restoration and novus ordo watch channels.
There is a subset of homesteading subjects by those hosts/channels that are part of the
http://www.thehomesteadnetwork.com/channels/
These homesteading/preparendness channels started slow with their channels but then got bigger and bigger subscribes and views and realized they could bring in pretty good yt income from their farm / homestead operations, especially of homesteaders who do not have outside regular job income but rely solely on small fixed income and their homesteading production income -- like from about $300 t0 $1000 a month. But they have to start doing at least one video a day to keep up the income and that takes someone who can spend about two or three hours of each day filming / editing / uploading. So this homesteading topic area is never going to be a huge income stream for them but since it looks to me like making a living off of strictly what you produce on your smallish homestead is impossible, many of these people have started getting more and more into the yt channel / money making game, and they seem to accept click bait titles as legitimate part of the game.
What I have noticed is that the real tangible and important gains they get from doing these channels is that you establish "community" and relationships that translate to real face-to-face, real names, meetings and collaborations and help from nearby rural neighbors that they never would have known about because of yt. Sometimes people call for prayers. Sometimes people need help with animals or watching the farm while they have to be away on emergency etc. Sometimes calls for money donations seem legitimate like poor hardworking homesteaders who have bad storm damage their greenhouse plastic covering or whatever. So all of that seems good to me but it is not cyber kind of good - but connecting real people that you can meet with and help each other in real life.
As for my traditional Catholic teaching channels, well that is not about yt money at all and I would not watch any that ever got in to that.
But since I am an infojunkie and have eye probs so can't read much anymore, like audio video format for my junkie needs.
I find the more a channel owner gets hooked on making yt money, the lower quality the content is for my need to learn facts and truth, not audio/visual eye candy stuff. I think there need to be new platforms for poorer people to somehow get income from their video production efforts but whole yt way is no good.
What is so funny is that the yt channels I like do not seem to realize that we are the kind of audience that is divorcing from PayPal, GoFundMe, Amazon, and Patreon because it requires automatic recurring credit card debits. They need to accept one time donations purchases of items via a snail mail method but most don't catch on to that.
In a way, accepting money from youtube as a channel owner is looking more immoral to me everyday because it is like taking money from Soros.
It is so easy to see how YT is controlling content on certain channels. Just watch certain subjects are religiously not mentioned at all or are dealt with an non-objective agendized manner.
I have heard that number of views on a specific video is where the money is, not subscriptions and likes. I have also heard that ad money income depends on viewing the ENTIRE ad, but not clicking to go to the ad site. Do not know what facts are on that info but yt has changed a lot in last six months and it is clear yt is into destroying First Amendment free speech. Those who want big yt money will have play their game and work their system and sacrifice First Amendment for bucks.
I really do not buy the idea that individual corporate advertisers are squawking about their ads being placed on certain kinds of subject sites. No this yt game is connected to CIA/Corporations THEM kinds of games. Corporations and businesses are no longer going to make much via advertising. It will be more about whether Big Brother deems that their business can still exist - fascism American style.
Desperate need for non-youtube platforms that are impervious from infiltration and takeover by THEM. I see more of a month to month subscription of reasonble amount that does not require automatic recurring debits and credit card charges or several month subscription up front. Somehow asking for donations or selling stuff needs to be kept separate from video production and subscriptions. Red Ice, audio only, seems to do a good job on this for now.
