I can confirm that this works. I've been doing this for a year, and my RPM has increased by more than 50%. And so far, I've read exactly one comment that complained about too many ads 😉

[@FilmBooth]

Thanks for letting us know

[@RodHerzstrom]

@@FilmBoothsame for me 50% more. It’s sick 🙌🏻

[@Marcus-Jones]

You know it's probably gonna flop in terms of views because the info is irrelevant to the majority of your viewers (unmonetised creators), but you posted it anyway to help people out. Respect the boldness posting a video like this.

[@FilmBooth]

Thanks, thought it was pretty cool so wanted to talk about it, we're still gonna change the thumb though ahha it can do better

I am a regular viewer and am so thankful for this video and shared it with all of my YT friends!! Thanks Ed. @@FilmBooth

This was one of the most instant gratification changes I've every done to my channel.

[@TonyLightTravels]

Did you recently do this or have u been doing it for a long time? Because I'm wondering if I should just start doing this with my new videos or go back and change some other vids, thanks

[@RileyColeman]

@@TonyLightTravels Probably made the change 4 months ago. I changed all of my videos that were still getting traction and views.

[@TonyLightTravels]

@@RileyColeman thank you for the reply!! I will do a couple and see what happens! Have a great day and God Bless

[@HairyTornado]

I never really comment on videos BUT I just wanted to say that I tried this and it actually worked way better than I expected. Posted a new video yesterday that was 48 minutes long. I’d normally do one ad every 5 minutes or so, but I did one every 2.5 minutes this time. Video got 40k views the first day and made $1100 in revenue! Normally we would have made around $400-$500. Average CPM for the channel is $24 but the CPM for that video came in at $45 (and the topic was very similar to all of our other videos). Just a huge thank you for this video. One of the true “hacks” that actually works.

[@RanulHashika]

Wow your RPM is already high

[@izzyk1998]

You're actually a genius putting ads in a cliffhanger moment haha. And I had no clue KZbin was clever enough to know who would sit through an advert and who wouldn't, swear you actually know so much about the ins and outs of KZbin so I'm always forever thankful for these tips!

[@thewestcoastwizard1]

❤

[@FreshSqueezedLightning]

Ed, you have been my favorite channel on KZbin for the last year. I've watched all of your videos multiple times (with 100% retention, don't worry!) and your advice is all gold. It's always been a little tricky adapting it to my action/suspense comedy short film channel but I do my best!

[@SpareMango]

As a creator I can genuinely say this works. I used to have an RPM of ~1 USD and after some testing, my latest video last week was the first one I'd launched with ads every 2 minutes and now the RPM is ~2.5 USD minimum. Feels REALLY amazing knowing I'm getting so much more out than before. Imagine telling some average person their salary could be doubled or more on the spot for free.

[@JustAnotherArmyVet]

Wow! But, I wonder why the RPM increased …. 🤔

[@ThatJohnstonLife]

Was worried when you said turn on mid rolls as I already do that, but pleased when you said don't trust the algorithm. Going to add them in manually for all my videos and see what the difference is

[@OutlawGarage]

Well I've given this a go, the medium approach. I've also put a post on my community page to ask if people are seeing the same ads, a few more, or are they being swamped by ads and at this stage the results are looking good. Thanks Ed, I'm going to keep trying this as every little bit helps.

[@phoenyck]

I like this, getting community feedback to see if it is negatively affecting the videos

[@LidiaExplores]

Thank you! I was just searching for a good video about mid-roll ads a few days ago, but I couldn’t find anything. This video came to me at the perfect time! My channel has only been monetized for a few weeks, and I’ve been confused about best practices for ad placement and frequency.

[@RyanNagy]

Bro you are getting better and better. And funnier! How does this video not have more views?

[@jonwhite9069]

I've just checked my stats after changing ads like you recommended. My most popular video had an almost nine-fold increase in revenue, from $20 a day to $170, and only a couple of complaints. Thank you!

[@FilmBooth]

Wow thats great!

[@SuperDevenMadness]

One of the most popular videos on my channel started had an rpm of $5-6 for the first 12 days of being live. Then it dropped to under $2 out of nowhere and continued like that for months until I did what you showed in this video (I did the aggressive option) Now my rpm is back to the $5 lvl on that video

I have videos that are extremely long, my longest so far is 2 and a half hours, it has 350k views, 45 minute average view duration. I always just put my ads every 10 minutes without caring at all about the placement, because when I was a viewer I never cared even a little bit about ads, I just skipped, and now I'm premium.

​@@Synchronizado17 i guess

I've been including about 1 midroll per minute on every video for almost a year and haven't had a single complaint about them. 🤷‍♀

Nice one Ed. Gonna test on a 270k video and will report back 🥰

[@JokullFrosti]

you're going to really like the results. When we created the midroll guide and refined it over years, we've seen only good results except in 1 particular case out of hundreds. and even then the impact wasnt on views, but since that channel had 80% TV viewers, it did cause more disruption than they desired and so they used the ight method and it was all good.

[@RomanTheFreeMan]

Incredible job keeping the pace of the video! Not that you need an advice from a channel with under 200 subs, but I found the sound of those whoosh effects a bit excessive and distracting. To my ear, lowering the volume of the sound effects *just a bit* would make it perfect. Thank you for the great value you provide!

[@Romans-1221-]

Maybe make a video surrounding the length of a video and how it shouldn’t be the main focus. Your video was 4 min 32 sec long and I was 💯 engaged. You didn’t bump it to 8 minutes for extra money, instead you provided us with a high quality, engaging video that makes me come back for more.

[@SleepyLatino]

My real concern is as a ASMR channel you can’t necessarily place a mid roll add because it might ruin the user experience.for example what if the person is watching a relaxing video only to get a random add that is the opposite of the content presented 😅. I wold not want to be half asleep only to be woke op to a high octane add idk if I’m expanding This well but that’s my main concern.

[@alexlantz]

That would be such a bomer!

[@SleepyLatino]

exactly i love all these ideas and strats but i feel like asmr is one of those that just dosent fit in the general fit of regular content hopefully we can get a video addressing somthign like this because in really asmr is a wieard niche @@partneredyoutubecommunity

[@JokullFrosti]

Unfortunately this is something our community has found during the time weve been refining the guide the video is based on, that ASMR channels are not suited for mid-rolls because people wont even tolerate one ad in the middle, let alone possible 2, no matter the length, and because youtube ads are always so darn loud.

[@ocdandanxiety]

I used to make sure my videos were 8 minutes long, just so I could do this...but then realized, it will filled with unnecessary fluff, which hurt the channel. I like that you talk about doing this with your 4:31 minute video. 👍

[@BigNastyKail]

I think having a strategy for your content is important. Giving the content to the viewer and not filling it with fluff will definitely satisfy and get them to come back. I do think you should strategize which content is going to be a quick fix and what content is going to be a binge.

[@internetshaquille]

“I used to add filler my content for money until I realized it was adding unnecessary filler”. What?

[@WhatchaGot2Say]

And if you’re smart you have KZbin premium so you don’t have to worry about ads and you get KZbin music which is much better than Apple and Spotify 💪🏽 *This comment is not sponsored 😅

[@TomPetoTraining]

I have a follow along fitness channel so don’t have any mid roll ads running. Some videos are 45-60mins long. Is it reasonable to put an ad into one of the longer rest intervals? I used to have some running on first few uploads & got a bit of hate for it.

[@FPSpsychoYT]

I had the exact same issue recently and a friend/fellow KZbinr pointed it out to me. I've had videos break 100k+, even a video get nearly 600k views - NO MIDROLL ADS! And if there were any, they were at the very end of the video during my OUTRO! Can't stress it enough, check your midrolls and manually place them. I do every 5/6/7 minutes depending on the length of the video.

[@TravelingwithKristin]

The same thing happened to me - I realized 80-90% of my videos had no midroll ads despite them being turned on 😭

[@HighFiveFriend]

You are literally one of the ONLY channels I can watch at 1x. Almost everyone else I watch at 1.5 😉. Thank you!!!

I watched this video expecting it to be awful. Cringed at the explanation of mid-roll ads (how... revolutionary), but was still mildly intrigued, so glad I carried on watching, and was horrified when I looked at my own data. 300k+ views in last 90 days - average of 1.8 ads per video (out of an average of 5 possible ad slots). Everything you shared makes total sense, and I have already implemented it - thank you so much for this engaging video that kept even the biggest skeptic watching until the end!

[@JokullFrosti]

take out display ads since those don't interfere with the video, and the avg ads is actually much lower. he didn't mention this from my guide, but the 0.9 to 1.5 ads is actually just video ads only.

[@GinnyDi]

How did you find the data on how many ads were being shown per video? I'm hunting through my analytics and can't find anything like that!

[@JokullFrosti]

@@GinnyDi You want to make sure you're only calculating for views that had ads. So, take Monetized playbacks/ (# of Skippable ads + # of non skips ads) that will tell you how many ad sessions you're viewers had. You don't add bumpers since those are the 2nd ad after another one. But you can still keep it in mind to know how many of the ad sessions are a double ad. Which isn't a huge deal since bumper ads are only 5 or 6 seconds and go away on their own. If you really want to make it easier. I did make an excell sheet where you enter your data and it gives you that number and a few more.

[@KellyRossouw]

@JokullFrosti thanks for sharing! Thats almost exactly what I did! I added estimated monetised views, but hadn't considered bumper views, so ill double check my data to see what an impact it made! (Thanks for mentioning that!) I estimate a 151% increase in rev based on the data I pulled, so super interested to see how it improves over the next week!

[@GTARecreation]

I have one question that i think a lot of small creators are interested in. If i have 0 views, 0 subscribers and i want to make a video about a topic that doesn't exist on KZbin, where will my viewers find my video? If i want to make a video about how people life's changed from 1950 to 2023. There are no keywords or specific audience for this. How can i make this work? Or how will this work on KZbin, how KZbin will find me viewers for my video, assuming it's a good video for everybody

[@cutlaps]

I tried this with one of my videos currently getting about 3k views a day. 5 day trial. Video retention dropped by 1 minute (15 minute video) and the daily RPM was slightly lower. I got scared and removed the extra ads. It could have been a coincidence as the video has hit a huge audience and maybe the latest group of viewers are less interested...

[@cutlaps]

I have also looked into views by device and found that 60% of my views are on TV. The extra info surrounding this technique says for TV views its better to go for the light implementation instead of aggressive.

[@danielevensen5539]

Great stuff! Happy that I've found your channel. Excellent advice!

[@TyphoonMC]

[@FilmBooth]

[@TyphoonMC]

@@FilmBooth 😳

[@WildlandExplorer]

If you have youtube auto-apply mid-roll ads without manually moving them to natural breakpoints, you're turning off potential viewers and maybe losing subscribers because of the asinine way youtube inserts them. I recently forgot to move them around on a recent upload and KZbin decided to place an ad smack in the middle of a 1-minute long intro that had music running through it. Imagine how jarring that is for the viewer. I have a policy that I'll run an ad at the beginning, the end of the video, and then one each at natural breakpoints which - on a backpacking channel is easy because each night I camp out and fade to black before the next day - you run an ad. these are built-in breakpoints that do not disrupt the flow of the video at all. Always be putting yourself in the viewers' shoes.

[@1TalesFactory]

As far as I'm in one of the highet RPM niches, deffinetely going to test it!

[@ASMRDrDawson]

Yeah that's great but in the ASMR niche midroll ads are surefire way to lose subscribers and not gain anymore and overall watch time would TANK.

Bro where you find stock video. Please please 🙏🙏🙏🙏😢😢😢😢

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

I can't believe this works... I mean we have viewers that specifically watch ads because they know it helps the creator and this seems like this would really drain our most faithful viewers. This seems like it would target viewers with shorter attention spans which really isn't my target audience.

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

Got the end and that is a more viable option in my opinion. Thank you.

[@TheIndigoEscape]

This has been tried and tested on another discord channel with hundreds of KZbinrs and have been doing this for years. It works 100%, I do this on all my videos

[@JokullFrosti]

The cool thing is youtube has an algorithm to know the ad tolerance of each viewer, and what ad types they prefer such as skippable, non skip, etc. and after the years of testing we aw that most channels actually, even with implementing our ad guide as shown in the video, only see 0.9 to 1.5 video ads per video session. before doing midrolls this way, its usually 0.5 to 0.7, sometimes better, but not often. so really, a lot of your viewers may not even be seeing an ad at all right now. You work hard to make content and deserve to get paid, so them taking 15 to 20 seconds during your video to see 1 or 2 ads is not that much to ask.

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

We just started running midrolls and previously had none. There was a definite issue when we allowed YT to place ads on its own where they placed 5 ads in one video for midrolls. My husband came home and told me how many there were in my recent upload and I asked my community about it and they said YT placed a lot. It isn't worth the community damaging risk for me to make a couple more bucks, we do more than fine as is and for us, the alternate income streams work best to pay the bills vs running tons of ads. But loyalty has to be sustained for that to work too. My people noticed an uptick and were not pleased and that wasn't with putting them every 2 min either.

[@OrbinHD]

​@@JokullFrostiHey! I have a question, how long will it take until I notice a difference? Will the RPM increase overnight or will it take some days/weeks?

For a small channel targeting growth more than the very small amount of dollars that ads would bring in, would it be best to just turn ads off completely for a while?

Keep them on the beginning and end of the video but turn off midrolls when you are new and building.

[@TheIndigoEscape]

Why? Why would it be a problem that you are a small channel?

When I wrote the guide over 2 years ago, many thought the same thing. but its been tested hundreds of times, and proven to work. The reason is because KZbin has an algorithm that knows he ad tolerance of each viewer. each midroll is only a chance that the viewer will see the ad. not a guarantee.

Can you give a link to the guide? Thanks! @@JokullFrosti

UPDATE tried this im my latest video and got 2 comments already saying too many ads .. so not so sure

[@JokullFrosti]

@@WalkWithMeTim out of how many other comments that aren't about ads. It comes down to annoying 0.5% of your audience vs making 50% more. That 50% more allows you to make better content, hire people, do greater things. In exchange your viewers might see 5 to 10 seconds more ads on average. That's a small payment compared to the work you put into each video.

I actually looked. 340 comments. 2 about ads, that's a super low ratio.

Love the video 😊

I usually remove my mid ads for the first few weeks because I was always worried about the engagement factor!

OK so mixed results so far. The first two videos did much better than before so I booked a cruise and popped a bottle of bubbly ..... but the last two have slipped back again. Not sure if the algo has reacted badly as I also got hit with the 'invalid traffic' banner. This only lasted a day and YT docked some money from my last months revenue as a result. Anyone want some cheap tickets for a cruise? 😎😎

Gonna give this a go and see what happens. ❤❤

I once got shamed to the oblivion by a viewer because of too many ads and even tho i put multiple midroll it wasn't insane amount as you did in the example. So i don't know why that happened to me.

[@JokullFrosti]

1 comment of thousands is merely a blip. We have also found that even on non-monetized videos, that sometimes people complain of ads, which seems to suggest some people are just complaining about ads on youtube in general during their session and wrongly attributing their complaint to your comment.

I’m noting this down…until I eventually get monetized 😂
