[@PenguinCatHybridDev]

WWWWW the update is insane keep it up

[@copterchronicles]

Well done..im slightly far away from it but working on it. However congratulations so pleased for you.

[@ArianaMMR]

Congrats!!! I have about 2000 watch hours to go but I have hit the sub count lol

[@Flightspotters]

Great I want same

[@claudiacastly]

Congratulations! I hope all small KZbinr gets monetized this year ❤

[@Kaurcreates22]

thank you i hope i can get there by the end of this year its been hard and some days its hard to stay focused when the results arent there but i will keep trying to reach 1000 im currently at 207

[@claudiacastly]

@@Kaurcreates22 I know it’s but don’t give up 🤍

[@im_aaria]

Thank you for sharing this, I felt inspired when you said you don’t need a viral video to make your first $100

[@learningtogetheredu]

For any small KZbinr not yet monetized and not yet to 1000 subscribers yet like me who is watching here, dont give up keep pushing its evident from here that it will get better with consistency. Lets keep going there is light at the end of the tunnel.congrats 🎉🎉

[@rigelr5345]

When people mention low views, they always talk like several hundreds or thousands, so when you said '56' I was soooo happy and like "YESS!! that's me 😂😂" Thanks for giving the perspective of a small youtuber!

[@joanjustin2988]

Motivating! Still long way to reach monetize but i won't give up! New subs here✨🙌

[@nalahwright]

I applied to the KZbin Partner Program yesterday and it was an incredible feeling. I watched this video to get an idea of what’s to come. This was informative and I appreciate you for creating this. Congratulations to you!

[@pilatesonthegreen]

Thank you so much and congrats to you as well!!

[@AJourneyFromNothing]

Finally got monetized myself about a month ago. So far, I think I’ve been making a dollar a day. Took me about 1 year to be monetized. Waiting now on the dollar to turn into at least $20. Ha. Love your style, clear. And also loved that you included how your past sort of tied in. Can definitely resonate. Appreciate the video, if you love it, keep doing it! Much peace! Thank you!

[@Kaurcreates22]

this is great! i cant wait to reach 1000 so i can get there too im currently at 207 hoping to reach 1000 by the end of the year without quitting hoping i make it! 🙏❤

[@raihana.onfilm]

Congrats on 2K! 🧡

[@pilatesonthegreen]

[@cecy_italian_and_criminology]

Thank you for this video! I've started my channel a while back but only made my first long form video like a week ago or so. I am trying to be more consistent now and posting what I'm passionate about and I found this video really inspiring x

[@wiktoriadulas5001]

Your videos are really interesting and i’m waiting for more!

I’m so glad I found your channel on my feed. It’s very refreshing. I started my journey as a KZbinr this year! Sharing my passion for traveling/ travel guide. 💚

[@TiarreaB.Naturally]

Congratulations on making that $100 threshold in the first month. That's not easy. I'm struggling to reach it every 6 months. 🙏🏽New subbie here. 🥰

[@Buildcabins]

U have to hone in on one subject and stick with it. With the ability to branch off once u get traction

[@BStride]

Congratulations, keep it up :)

[@eileentara]

great advice!

[@robienillosistoso628]

Thank you for sharing, I’m far from monetization and very inspiring. will go over the rest of your vids for Pilates ❤

[@pilateswithkenz]

I’m on this journey too! Constantly clicking that refresh button 😅 congrats!!

[@pilatesonthegreen]

[@tayo_Odusoga]

Well done and thanks for the video

[@nutanwagh3673]

Thank you for sharing this. This is very inspiring video for those who wants to start YT channel.

[@ARBOLISTAEdgarGarcia]

Thank you for sharing this

[@back.on.track.]

wow congrats ❤ i recently started my channel and sometimes I'm obsessed with numbers. U gave me a totally different perspective to be honest. thank you❤

[@Kaurcreates22]

just became #697 for you and even watched some videos to give you the watch time! you goth this i am also obsessed with numbers right now and i just want to get to 1000 already im at 207 but i need to enjoy the process too i want to get to 1000 without giving up hopefully i can

[@nicoletiana]

i feel like youtubes monetization is at its absolute lowest!!! i used to make $500+ but now it's down to like $170.. :/

[@pilatesonthegreen]

$170 is better than nothing though! look at it from that perspective 🫶🏼

[@OfficialGuessQuiz]

It happens all the time, usually when your videos are becoming let's say "boring" KZbin CPM can increase and decrease all the time but main thing is to keep improving videos each time. Keep work up and remember 170$ is also something!

[@antno_2064]

Congratulations

[@michael77d]

you are cool and pretty keep it up!!

[@BrothersandGuns]

Congratulations 🎉 im still way off from the 4,000 hours. Great video

[@ThePowerOf762]

Congrats

[@janelcorbett751]

Clicked on the video to learn cause I want to start a channel, Subscribed cause I actually have been wanting to do Pilates after my back injury. 💗

[@pilatesonthegreen]

Aww yay! Pilates will absolutely help you heal. Just take it easy and listen to your body

[@lsworldtraveler590]

[@richardhyatt-beekeeping]

Thanks for sharing your story.

[@TansZen]

This was on point. I recently started my channel 6 months ago and decided to make my channel about my passion :travel and football. Easy content for something you love. I'm also on a journey to follow newbies like myself to watch our growth so you have another new subscriber here 😁. Have an Awesome Day!!

[@pilatesonthegreen]

[@Natalie-wellbeing-guidance]

I have only 3 subscribers and very little views I started about 3 weeks ago so hopefully I will slowly increase soon, well done on getting monetised

[@ndakule1]

Let's keep moving Natalie. Congrats

[@ROSADIANA-DSB]

Thanks for sharing I’m so close hopefully monetized in May❤❤

[@drivethrutours1916]

What do you think about those who use ad blockers?

[@TheCatsofVanRaptor]

It asked if this was a good video for what I searched. I put the ultra smiley face, so… you’ll prolly get a surge soon

[@TravellingMug]

Team refresh button 😂❤

[@pilatesonthegreen]

But actually 😅🤣

[@ndakule1]

In my third month and encouraged

[@Geeking_Out_On_Stem]

Hi ya. Thank you...I am always wondering how quick it takes to start off as a small creator.

[@sustainlifejournalyoga]

This was interesting and encouraging, thank you! How do you turn off the ads in the middle of your videos? I teach yoga classes and I want to turn mine off as well but I think I read somewhere that you have to be monetized to turn them off. Thanks!

[@pilatesonthegreen]

That’s correct! Once you are monetized you can turn off mid roll ad placement

[@sustainlifejournalyoga]

@@pilatesonthegreen Oh gotcha! Thanks for confirming. It really frustrates my yoga students as ads play in the middle of the flows haha Can't wait to be able to turn it off!

[@pilatesonthegreen]

[@Tair_Omari]

Great video - im on this journey - not monetized yet 💪🏽

[@LookWhatJesFound]

i feel like im kind of in your range ... i wanted to start leaving this comment before watching your video to see if how close OR FAR i am from your current "ranking" ... so i just made a video talking about my analytics and 5:58 so im a bit ahead of you at this point , but your editing skills are off-the-hook ... i wish i had those 🥲 ... so crazy though ... your RPM must be high (maybe i missed it) because you are making a lot of money for so few views / hours / subscribers ... 7:27 , yep, your RPM is like $10 , thats double mine ... i have to work twice as hard for half the money ... congratulations !!!!!!!!!!! keep up the great work, jes

[@lanalana-lf5nj]

Can you make a video on what equipment you recommend to start please ✨

[@pilatesonthegreen]

Start with your phone!! It definitely gets the job done to begin. I can make this video down the line if I get enough requests for it ☺️

[@lanalana-lf5nj]

@@pilatesonthegreen that would be great ✨thank you for replying 💕

[@Spendinglifetogether]

This is a great video! I'm a smaller KZbinr and just received my first check for $145....I was thrilled. Thank you for putting this video together.

I just reached the $100 threshold for the first time. It was a journey for sure.

Yayy congrats!! 🤩

[@Amani-uw4qy]

Hello i want to ask you something .. the youtube give me monthly money or once only ? Now i have 105 dollars so they will send the same amount and maybe more monthly or just onec? Please tell me

[@GavinJDsilva]

I need just 160 hrs to get to 4k 😅 feels like forever
