Small Channels Video Update.

[@l.e.phillips]

The subject matter also makes a huge difference in how much you get paid, all calculated by “per 1000 views”. Channels that talk about finance will make the most money per 1000 views (figures! 😂). It’s really interesting to look up “how much KZbin pays me” videos, especially from smaller channels. Sometimes you’d be very surprised at the channels that are making $2-3k a month. You definitely don’t need a million views a month to get there. It just all depends on so many factors. (They show all their stats on their YT Studio account to prove their income) But making SERIOUS money is of course a lot less common. I have a couple small channels (not on this account. This is my super old personal account, haha) and I have the follower count needed, but not the 4000 watch hours yet. It’s too hard for me to post consistently enough at this time, but hopefully soon that will change. I’d be thrilled with an extra $50 a month! 🤣

[@wildernesshermit]

Excellent comment L.E. Very true and informative. KZbin can be a bit complex and this defiantly adds some clarity. Many thanks. I'm going to attempt to pin this to the video.

[@rodgereckert5241]

It is such a pleasure to hear your positive comments and building other channels up! You're the best.

[@wildernesshermit]

Many thanks Rodger, it's one of my favorite things to do.

[@cargotrailerkenny]

Good talk Mike. I'm all for small channels helping each other out. Don't ever worry about self-censoring yourself and don't worry about the effect that it has on your audience. What I like about you is you say what comes from your heart and your sincerity and you're not worried about how much money you will make.

[@wildernesshermit]

Hi Kenny. I just found this comment in the 'Held for Review' section for whatever reason, but quickly approved it. As always many thanks.

[@dennis78382]

Thank you Sir. I appreciate your kind words. My favorite "small" channel is RV Living with the Geezer. Really enjoyed your pace and positivity. 14:23

[@wildernesshermit]

My pleasure Dennis and thanks. Geezer's channel link is in the first videos description box.

[@rvlivingwiththegeezer7791]

Thank you so much for putting the link to my channel in your description of your last video. I appreciate you promoting the small channels!

[@wildernesshermit]

Indeed Geez, my pleasure.

[@makeartmoreart]

"Life is meant to enjoy. " is a message I don't think we're hearing often enough! ❤ Thank you.

[@wildernesshermit]

Thank you make art. We don' hear it enough, so I say it at every opportunity

[@trustedliving8131]

I enjoy your videos. It is good to hear what you think of our political system. Its a mess. Please comment about the following. Our Declaration of Independence states our very first Right. "That when any Form of Goverment becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and institute new Government"

[@wildernesshermit]

It's interesting isn't it. I often wonder if the general populous will ever be truly heard.

[@shadowband70]

​@@wildernesshermit I think the general populace are heard Mike...but that's as far as it goes 🤨 Juvenal said 'give them bread and circuses, and they will never revolt'. YT and socials in general are the circuses, and they're also being used to surveil the populace. The system has been very clever when you think about it, and the grip on the masses is growing. That's why I like channels such as yours... people who have managed a place to call their own, and are living on their own terms. Priceless 👌✌️

[@wildernesshermit]

@@shadowband70 Indeed Shadow and thanks. Man, I always enjoy your insights.

[@shadowband70]

@@wildernesshermit Thankyou...that means a lot to me Mike. As a 'work in progress' I always respect people who are much closer to inner peace than me. I think that philosophy will always be a thing that AI can only mimic, so it becomes more important than ever... and you're a great example of human progression ✌️👌

[@wildernesshermit]

It takes a while to find these responses from KZbin. Very kind words Shadow. Yes it's a progression that's taken me years.

[@rh5591]

I'm really liking Randall's Modern Life. Really appreciate what you are doing for small channels.

[@wildernesshermit]

I enjoyed their work. Many thanks, I prefer promoting others over myself. It's way more fun.

[@Foodthoughtsandcrime]

That 40 bucks is well deserved. I love the smaller videos that are real basic. I’m not all about too much editing. Some is ok.

[@wildernesshermit]

Thanks Maven and I agree, small channels simply presented are the ones I watch. I'm adding a link to your channel in the description box.

[@Foodthoughtsandcrime]

@@wildernesshermit very kind of you. Thank you 😊

[@wildernesshermit]

A pleasure to do so Mavin.

[@MarinoK9]

I subbed to the hippie chicken channel. Off grid for 18 years here. I'm in New Mexico.

[@wildernesshermit]

18 years. Perfect, a fellow "traveler" and New Mexico is a great place to off grid in. Thanks.

[@ruthespy1576]

Thank you for sharing. I sure enjoy hearing what you have to say, so glad you may be posting more often. I really appreciate the people who take the time to respond to comments like yourself.

[@wildernesshermit]

Many thanks Ruth. I don't take my viewers or commenters for granted. I appreciate every one of them.

[@sonyageorge7290]

I like that your sharing about other channels, I’ve enjoyed watching them

[@wildernesshermit]

Many thanks Sonya, I enjoy promoting my fellow small channels.

[@NukaVaultReadiness]

Great video sir! Appreciate you watching other small creators who are here to share their passions and projects with the world. Looking forward to following you!

[@wildernesshermit]

Thanks Nuka. I agree.

[@sheilanorthwood547]

You indeed have something to offer here. I enjoy your experiences and opinions, and I will check out some if those small channels. Btw yes, Canada is even surprising us Canadians. Better times are ahead.

[@wildernesshermit]

Thanks Sheila. I've always viewed Canada as being very open so I was surprised. Better times ahead is great to hear.

[@TheBackwoodsHermit]

I for one would love to hear your opinions on the personality types that seek power video you proposed. Also, thank you for so many recommendations to go check out. I've been really enjoying a small channel called Miscellaneous Me. They're a younger family that have been living off-grid for a few years and she does a really good job showing how they do things. Alas Babylon is my go to for great storytelling which always challenges how I think about the world. And I watch Ernie's Cabin whenever I need a little reminder to slow down and appreciate everything life has to offer.

[@wildernesshermit]

Thanks Steve, I'll check out Miscellaneous Me, Alas Babylon has great story telling. I'll be adding a link to that channel as well as your channel in the description box. good to see you again hermit.

[@TheBackwoodsHermit]

Thank you for that. Hope you guys are doing very well out there.

[@wildernesshermit]

Certainly, glad to help promote a fellow hermit.

[@FatGuyinaLittleWoods]

I don’t think you’d call him a small channel with 250k subscribers, but Kyle’s Cabin is probably my favorite channel on KZbin. He has a great homestead and amazing work ethic. He’s probably in his 20’s, has a wife and is expecting their first child. A great dog named Skeeter. He’s always building something or going on cool camping trips. Definitely recommend

[@Foodthoughtsandcrime]

Kyle has some good stuff!

[@FatGuyinaLittleWoods]

I'm working on a video with a little more visual and narrative regarding our hermitage. Thanks Jim.

[@michaelmckelvy8182]

I love your videos. Please be careful with political videos. You risk dividing your audience. Keep up your wonderful channel.❤

[@wildernesshermit]

Many thanks Michael.

[@Bawkr]

I have a channel I planning on moving everything over to one eventually but this is the one I ended up doing my watching on. Don't know what I'm going to cover yet I'm the dreaded jack of all trades tho. Work on vehicles, sell online and have other hobbies too. Maybe that's what I'll do cover how I'm able to live the way I do and every little thing that makes the whole picture.

[@wildernesshermit]

Bawkr I think that channel idea of yours would be very enjoyable.

Hey thanks for the shout out! 🌲🌵🐕‍🦺🐕

[@wildernesshermit]

My pleasure.

[@rainbows-r-us109]

I have never seen a commercial when watching videos on this channel. I think some channels have commercials, others like this one don't.

[@wildernesshermit]

There are a few that KZbin includes, most are click through. I'm not sponsored by anyone no will I ever bother pestering viewers with ads for companies who give me anything free or otherwise. When I'm watching someones video and they launch in to an ad for a sponsor I click out. Thanks Rainbows for your great comment contributions.
