My YouTube poll on facts only versus opinion/commentary

I ran a poll yesterday on my YouTube channel asking people if they wanted my opinion on particular issues or topics or cases about which I make videos. Or did they just want the facts. This morning, 86% have indicated that they want the facts and my opinion or my opinion. That is a pretty… Continue reading My YouTube poll on facts only versus opinion/commentary

YouTube membership-in two minds

I have a regular internal debate about creating a YouTube membership scheme. This would allow me to obtain support for my YouTube channel from my subscribers and anyone else who cares to support the channel. To be frank, I don’t need the money. But there is a particular video I have made which will be… Continue reading YouTube membership-in two minds

I reached 30,000 subscribers to my YouTube channel yesterday

I smashed through the 30,000 YouTube subscriber target yesterday. My video about the army private, Cathal Crotty, who was handed a fully suspended three-year sentence for beating a young woman unconscious generated over 500 new subscribers for me. Whether these subscribers are of any benefit to me or my channel is doubtful, to be frank.… Continue reading I reached 30,000 subscribers to my YouTube channel yesterday

Heading for 30,000 YouTube subscribers

My YouTube channel is heading for 30,000 subscribers, which is a nice landmark type of target. A nice round number. At the moment I have over 29,000 subscribers so it should not take much longer, touch wood, to reach 30,000. I know the type of video that will propel my channel more quickly to this… Continue reading Heading for 30,000 YouTube subscribers

My experimental video tanked (so far)

I published a video on my YouTube channel at the weekend as an experiment. The video is 45 minutes of me riding my Vespa around the roads at home. I don’t think I say anything and certainly make no comment about law or business. It was just a lot of footage I had taken with… Continue reading My experimental video tanked (so far)

Heading for 30,000 YouTube subscribers

My subscriber count on my YouTube channel stands at 28,623 today. My next obvious goal is the target of 30,000. This would be an achievement, if I make it, of great satisfaction and pride. I watch a lot of YouTube videos on a wide range of topics. But many of them are about making videos,… Continue reading Heading for 30,000 YouTube subscribers

Seeking support for my YouTube channel (still on the fence)

I have been thinking for a little while about setting up a “BuyMeACoffee” for my YouTube channel. This service is similar to the Patreon service to seek support for your YouTube channel, but I think the big difference-I may be wrong-is that the “BuyMeACoffee” system is entirely voluntary. In other words, whether you buy me… Continue reading Seeking support for my YouTube channel (still on the fence)

A surprising trend in YouTube viewing habits

Some top executive in YouTube has made a lot of noise recently about a surprising trend to do with YouTube. A surprisingly large, and increasing, number of people are watching YouTube videos on their televisions. Not on computers or smart phones or iPad devices but on their home tv. In fact, nearly half (45% of… Continue reading A surprising trend in YouTube viewing habits
