holy stuff there's a lot of posts i wanna reply to :x
hey guys
what if i told you
most of the money you make as a youtuber is not from the ads
but from views
so please stop this bullstuff "they need money1!11" argument
I'm not 100% versed in the program but the youtube partnership deal allows google to run ads on your video, giving you a cut of the ad revenue.
It's chump change until you start getting 1 million+ viewers regularly. After that, you could start merchandising your screen name but a lot of youtubers who make money off of their videos do so through ad revenue.
some youtubers don't really deserve the amount of money for what they do yet some other youtubers do deserve money as they spend time editing, writing scripts, animating, etc.
If they're getting the views, they're most likely appealing to some crowd and therefore do deserve the views. It takes a fanbase to make them rich :v
This is the most backassward logic I've ever seen. Let me rephrase what you just said for you:
"For video entertainment, it makes the most sense to obstruct the entertainment."
The point of intrusive ads is not to inconvenience you, but rather to get the ad to be viewed as easily and as often as possible. Since youtube is a video-hosting website, running video ads guarantees that they'll be seen without adblock. At this point, viewers aren't really seen as people by the advertisers, just as consumers.
you're preaching it like it's a fact
It would take an entertaining person to make a video worth watching without putting in their share of the effort. If they provide quality videos with no effort at all, all power to them. The unfortunate side is that Oasis is right in the fact that those who do put more effort into their videos end up making better videos than those who don't.
He must not be good then because I never heard of him.
He has 1,221,095 subscribers. He must be doing something right.
