RANT - Ad Placement
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- I see comments about ads all the time. Wether it is about a video sponsor or RUclips ads, people don't it but they still want these free videos. How is this supposed to work?
#youtubeads #ads #adsense
I often get paid for my videos and the video itself and the links should be considered advertising!

Premium user here 👋 I watch more RUclips than I do TV or netflix etc so makes sense for me to pay to get to watch exactly what and who I want and support them so they can still make that content 🙂 both my wife and I love you Henning so don't ever change!
@@carwynvan premium user here too. Never see ads either. And you’re right, this is the single best way to get content.
Same boat. I mainly switched because of RUclips Music. It's pretty much the same price as a premium spotify account, but I also get ad free videos with RUclips premium, so it's a no-brainer
@@JacubWhite38 RUclips Music was an added bonus for me at first but I've had to stop using it. I can play the exact same playlist on music or video and the music app drains my battery twice as quick, is constantly hard crashing, and makes my phone hot AF...
Once upon a time website ads were a still image at the side of the page that you could click on if you were interested. Then they added animation. Then there was banner ads. Then big pop-up ads that you had to click away from. Then loud, flashy ads. Then ads that repeatedly interrupt. Then ads that take up more time than the video. Then ads that are for scams, or just downright abhorrent crap, or lies, or propaganda....etc. or ads that are drive-by malware. And it just gets worse and worse and worse.
Now, you can pay for no ads, but next week it'll be pay and you get some ads, but you can pay more for no ads....but we're gonna add ads to that too along with a higher, more expensive tier...and it just keeps getting worse.
Creators should get paid, but platforms broke their end of the deal. Ads should be unobtrusive, checked so they're not scams or worse and if you want a pay to opt out option, it should be fairly priced and actually remove ads, no extra tiers, no crap.
It's not the fault of creators, but the platforms trying to extract every last penny. If it weren't for their greed, we wouldn't even be having the conversation.
Ads in 2024 are tracking you and selling your data and capable of linking to malware, these are the primary reasons why adblockers are so popular.
Great statement. 100% agree.
Yes, I pretty much agree but on RUclips it actually works (so far), doesn't it?
There are no tiers, you get Premium and there won't be any ads, worked for me.
Sponsored block ads in the middle are the best ones! They are easiest to skip😅
For me an unbiased review from you is the best advertisement for a product I can get.
I don't mind if you get paid for a review as long as the review is honest, and I watch your reviews since i trust you to be honest.
I pay for premium so I don't get the annoying random ads. That's the price you pay if you don't want ads.
There are so many moving parts to why this is the way people think. All I can say is that, as crazy as it sounds there are people who value what you do, but still don't think they should have to pay for it. It's similar to what the world is saying to musicians for 30 years now, which is some version of "your music isn't worth anything, but please keep making it, cause we wanna dance". You can replace music with pretty much anything creative or artistic. AI will likely make it even worse. This situation is but a symptom of a much larger problem.
Thanks!
You’ve just increased his revenue on this video at least 50%!
Mr fancy pants McGee over here…😂😅
@@crave809 😂🤣
i bought youtube premium because i just can’t take the ads. i did the same decades ago with tivo just so i don’t see ads. it’s worth it to me. i may even have more inner peace.
Or use a browser with an ad blocker, as some do.
Damn, honestly, just bought something from Thomann (a Pentatone gate) and did not think of using your link... But this video will stick in the back of my mind, so the next times, I will remember it... Keep up the good work and the way you handle ads is highly appreciated...
Thank you for keeping out youtube ads at a rate maximum possible! ❤🎉
You and Landon are both hilarious. I’d be happy to give each of you $1 a month. Also my kids still ask me to play your Riptide John Mayer vid. Thanks for all the laughs!
I write books and make audiobooks of them for people with dyslexia, sight problems, whatever. I make no money from it. It annoys me that YT now puts ads in the middle of my videos. It spoils the experience for viewers. That means I get fewer viewers and wouldn't be able to monetize of I ever wanted to. I can't give my creations away because YT have decided to be more greedy. They used to put ads at the start and end - that was fine
I bought RUclips premium when it first came out and have kept it. I don't watch TV and the amount of time and headache it saves me with ads is worth it. Plus if you ever fly anywhere or go places without Internet you can download videos to watch later. I don't know how people are willing to pay $15 or whatever for Netflix, but not for RUclips.
I don't have any problems with the "sponsored by Ads" in the middle of a video or with youtube ads at the front and end, maybe one in the middle. But I came across videos that lasts maybe 10 minutes with up to five youtube ad breaks that lasted from 30 seconds to two minutes. That's what I would call unwatchable.
Here's my take: I have absolutely no issue with content creators being directly sponsored, even if it means there is product placement in videos. That's just life. Most of the time, these sponsors are related to the things I actually enjoy, and most of the creators I follow vet their sponsors to an extent (unless they're taking money from BetterHelp). 90% of creators integrate their ads in a thoughtful way that doesn't disrupt the flow of the video or is at least amusing, so I don't even mind the product I don't care about most of the time. You want to run a "RAID: Bug Spray Lesions" ad? Cool. No complaint from me.
I think the Patreon or RUclips membership model is great and love it when the creators I follow are able to lean on those streams. I am not in a place, financially, to be a patron or RUclips member for most creators at the moment, but would be more than happy to contribute when I am more stable. I am also more than happy to click on affiliate links on the rare chance I want to buy something.
All of these things directly support the creators I enjoy.
I am much less happy to get blasted with 500dB of garbage generic oonts music advertising products I couldn't care less about, or, as happens much more frequently in my market every 2 years, BS rhetoric from far-right political candidates espousing the superiority of their master race over people who, like me, were born from the "wrong" breeding stock, and then the creators barely see a pittance of that revenue because 99.9999% of it goes to Taylor Swift, Mr. Beast, and the record labels that caused this music hellscape in the first place.
I'd consider premium, but then again, you run into the problem where you're supporting the big boys and hoping a tiny sliver of that income trickles down to the creators you actually care about. Even then, I think premium at least contributes to paying the bills at RUclips, who obviously need to keep their own lights on.
I'd much rather see creators build relationships with good brands and do product placement with them. I've been turned on to a lot of great products that way.
Anderson’s music has Victory And Chapman connections. (Not everyone knew about it though)
Just be open and transparent.
Don’t HIDE your involvement, with companies. Period.
it has always been my understanding that youtube was a platform for people to display their videos, etc. Now it has evolved into a money making machine that is out of control. Yes, some videos have an excessive number of ads which make the video impossible to watch. And yes, I understand some people need to put food on the table and pay bills but cramming ads into videos just to make money was never what youtube was for initially. Everyone has become too greedy to make a profit.
People want art, music and videos to be free for their enjoyment. Period.
Getting the mid-roll from YT during your call with Landon= priceless!
Nothing wrong with not liking ads. I use BRAVE so I don't see ANY ads. BTW, I love me some Lord Henning.
Even back in the day when we paid for magazines, the magazines where at the mercy of the brands who paid for page ads.
Readers just didn’t have the chance to share stories of how editor X was fired for writing an honest review of a company paying for page space.
I don’t want onions in any of my ads. Do you get revenue from clicks from RUclips Premium - is it better or worse than normal clicks with ads?
now you will get EVEN MORE ONIONS
Premium is worth it, I get to watch Henning rant with no interruptions!
I’m on his Patreon for $1/month like *EVERYONE* should be. Low amount to be able to support many creators. Go do it now! Just do it. He deserves it. The quality and value he provides for us is ridiculously high compared to most others in the same category. Imagine a *completely* independent Henning. Even better. Do it, sign up.
The creator should be able to place the ads. Often the ads come at just the wrong time. A complex description is interrupted so you have to watch it twice. Henning or Michael Lemmo are doing some great guitar solo thats destroyed. Knowing when theyll be wouldn't interrupt continuity
My problem with ads is seeing the same ad 100 times and despite skpping it every time the algorithm still thinks I give a rats arese. I didn't want it the previous 100 times I want it even less now. Or ads that have zero relevance to the content of the video I am watching. I might be more interested if the ad was at least somewhat relevant to my interests but no matter how many times Raid Shadow Legends gets rammed down my throat I am not. In fact I am a spiteful little wanker that once an ad annoys me even if I were interested I won't use that brand, I'll find another.
As for if you are paid for a review. I actually trust you for your straight talking and don't think you would be heavily bias towards it if at all. This is unfortunately not something I feel most people are honest with though
The problem with ads is that they are annoying and repetitive. Everyone loves super bowl ads, you’d think they would do more of that.
Man, I'm with you on this, but you do come across a bit strong sometimes. There might be many watching who do struggle to put food on the table. It sounds a bit strange to hear you say, "You don't want us to eat?" when it's clear you have options. Anyway, full power to you, just ease off the throttle a little! 🤣
He’s a looooooong way from worrying about eating
That's a perceived vision on that tho. He basically says it's his job and he needs to be paid. It's the same as for all of us. It's not like he's wrong.
@@marvinrockon When I get my raise he gets his and not one moment sooner.
Getting paid is indeed the same as for all of us.
@marvinrockon Nah, he IS a l-o-n-g way from that. Dissing his audience (while repeatedly scrambling to clarify he's only pissed at some of us), ain't a good look - a bit like his not-free hoodie! 😂
@@milesjury49 I don't feel called out or dissed in any shape or form, so it indeed is a perception issue. I think you're feeling called out for it and since I don't know your personal situation, I won't judge about it.
Also I'm not feeling dissed either.
A lot of people here don't, which proves too, that it's based on a biased perception.
Anyways, here are the facts:
He says some people want the videos without advertisements, which is a huge entitlement issue on side from these viewers.
Also there are 2 things to consider, that are known by every man:
1. Advertisements on RUclips are neither new nor unusual. They are totally normal.
2. Nothing in this world is really for free.
So what exactly is the problem with the points he's making here?
Which points he talked about don't make sense?
You mention some people are financially barely passing by, but then demand people work for less or no money, did I got that right?
This confuses me a bit...
What is your point exactly?
Does he have a lot of money? Maybe. You don't know, I don't know. The thing is:
1. Does it matter?
2. Who cares?
3. If he does, maybe he wants to keep it that way?! Makes sense?
4. It misses the point entirely, so it's redundant anyways...
What are you doing? Getting all mad about RUclips having ads? Him explaining the situation to people who dont know his situation or this platform?
The fact is: We are not gonna get anything from this discussion. Maybe now you understand the situation a little bit better, which is my goal here. Worst case: You're mad at me. Anyways, no hard feelings from me.
Thanks for the links tip.
I thought for you to benefit I had to purchase that particular product advertised. As far as the ads go. Sitting through a quality video of content I am interested in, a couple of ads is no annoyance. I will either be interested and watch, or delete it. 👍👍🍺🍺
I'm not even sure if I have *free* will.
Did I click on this willingly, or is my behaviour programmed and predetermined by society, genetics, algorithms, and fluffy animals? 🤔
I want to hear Paul Reed Smith talk about tonewood!
I support what you are doing now. I'll be an early subscriber until you hit the tipping point. To be fair, I'm a RUclips Premium subscriber.
I learned a long time ago that if you value something, you have to support it. If you don't support it, it will go away. Don't go away Henning! I love your work too much.
Some honest thoughts: Paying per channel is the same problem with streaming, in the beginning people were very eager to pay for content, no more pirating, it was awesome... And then all content was distributed on a billion different services and if you wanted it all, it cost a small fortune now.
Then there is RUclips premium, people also want RUclips to not get a penny from them because it's a somewhat corrupt company, I can't count the times RUclipsrs call RUclips an evil company that boycotts them.
Not saying it's okay or honest but trying to shed some light onto why people do what they do (or don't do)
Nobody likes ads but the ones that piss me off and make me leave are the ones that appear in the middle of music or sound demos usually they are louder too.
I personally don't have any problem with sponsorships or ad reads at the beginning of a video.
I am not a premium YT user, just french standard user. I see ads, I skip them when I can (most of them actually). I think it's fair to see ads when I don't pay anyone (I already had to pay my fiber connection). I like your channel, the way you make your video, your honesty, etc so don't change anything in your way to do it. Maybe some interviews, or more cheap hardware (if I had more money I will pay a Premium YT!), and less "F" word ;-) . It don't bother me at all hearing you said "this videos is sponsored by...", nor "I get paid to do it".... I understand you have to get money, it's fair. I don't work for free neither (well, even if playing music is almost working for free :-( ).
Make us be informed, knowing new tech, and make us dream :-)
Continue your job as you do it :-)
Do you make any add revenue from a premium member watching since they don’t see the adds?
Yes
Unfortunately RUclips Premium lumps together a number of benefits besides ad removal (e.g. RUclips Music, downloading videos...). I've no interest in those, so I'm unwilling to pay the full price in order to remove ads. If only you could pay a smaller amount per month just to remove ads.
True words on a lazy Sunday afternoon (t least for me). I'd like to see these guys walk into a bakery and wanting some cake for free, because it was so much fin for the baking man making them ... Anyway, keep up your great work and never forget: The mother of the dumb is always pregnant ...
I pay for RUclips Premium, so ads are not an issue for me. I don't have a problem with the concept of paying a creator 50 cents or a $1 per month for content that I REALLY like, but I would then seriously narrow down the number of channels I watch and therefore pay for. It would work as a filter for getting rid of channels that aren't providing content that people are willing to pay for. I think the bar goes up when you are paying each creator separately for the content - you are going to keep your list much more curated. So - I am down with the model but it will be MUCH more competitive for the creators.
I dont click "Skip Ad" on channels i really like unless it's a reaaaaaaally long ad
Thaaaank you!
I've seen RUclips ads on my own videos when I watch them after they've gone up for 5th round upload QC. I have 20 subs, there is no monetization. Please don't blame the creators for RUclips ads, RUclips is gonna RUclips. Also, as always, don't complain that people make a living, this is a job period.
Keep doing what you do. Stop reading the comments. I baught a revv generator mkiii. Your demo put me over the edge to buy it. It is the only expensive amp I will ever own. If you need ads and sponsors, go with it. I can hear what the thing does watching the show despite what is said.
I don't mind ads but RUclips is getting fucking ridiculous. Two 20 seconds ads to start with, another two during the video at the most breathtakingly inconvinient moments right in the middle of a sentence.
It's not the ads sir, it's the ridiculous number of them AND the stupid loud soundtrack that they have.
I don't mind a sponsor block in the middle. Between that and aggressive advertising from youtube itself, it's the lesser evil. Having BOTH is where it gets ridiculous. I just wish there was a cheaper version of RUclips Premium without RUclips Music.😅 Only offering a bundle of both together seems like a dirty tactic to make people move away from Spotify.
Great video! Thank you!!!
Thanks for your thoughts on this Henning, as someone who watches RUclips but has little understanding about how these things actually work I appreciate your insight.
I don't mind the level of ads in your vids - yet I do often turn off videos which have a higher level of ads placement unless I am very engaged in the subject matter.
With regard to affiliate links I had a dilemma recently - I purchased something moderately expensive from Thomann but I didn't know whether to use your link or Ryan's or Andy's or Tone Talk's. In the end I couldn't decide so I didn't use any, which is probably pretty silly. (Next time I'll draw a name out of a hat) I guess I thought that you guys only make pfennigs on the affiliates so it doesn't matter.
I hope you get less of a hard time in the comments, it seems to be pretty hard on you.
another premium user here. RUclips ads dont affect me. Creator made ads dont bother me. I understand you need to eat. Carry on doing what is best for you. Your content is awesome. you deserve to be paid for it.
Here is something weird. About a month ago Zzounds set up a 30 minute conference call to tell me that they’re basically making all my gear dreams come true. What I mean is they are providing all and any gear I want. And they really didn’t even care a whole lot if I mentioned them in the video it was extremely low-key so I’ve taken them up on that and I still work with a local music store but Zzounds is providing 75% of the gear I’m reviewing. If I like it I can keep it and get a 1099 for it. Which means in the US that value will look like income for tax purposes. It is a dream deal and I don’t know why they work with my tiny garbage channel but they do. So I don’t have to build any vendor relationships and they will connect me to prerelease stuff so I can do curtain up videos on release day like the big boys. Again I have no idea why my channel was picked. They work with others too and their affiliate fees are better than Sweetwater
Who even see those ads, everyone with a brain used adblockers.
What works a lot better for other channels is regular channel sponsors regardless of featured gear; examples are all over RUclips.
This is a non intrusive method, pays better, can even be actually useful to the viewer.
I think you also inadvertently/brilliantly summed up the oblivious consumer-ist cheap guitar market that at nearly every turn is vapidly paradoxical…..
My channel is non-monetized and they place ads on it all the time, especially on my playlists of original relaxation music. Nature of the beast of YT. The Deadpool Old Spice ad in the middle of this was ironic given your hoodie and made me laugh 🤣👍
Once your channel is above a certain size, RUclips just monetizes the content and takes the money if you don't.
@@TriPedalReviews
But someone around here says they're way below the monetising mark and YT put on ads anyways.
I like everything you put out. I am now employed, and will be able to do Patreon soon. Please DO NOT CHANGE what you produce. I purchase YT Premium so you can collect that way.
It’s not an enviable position that you are in. I pay for premium for the same reason you gave 😂 The ads are annoying, but there are ways around it for the viewers, like you said. People need to get paid for their work. I’ve been saved lots of money because of finding the right review for a product. There is a value in these things. I’m guessing the people complaining about ads are less likely to actually buy any or most of the products they look at reviews for. I’ve bought older gear on the used market because of some reviews I’ve seen. There is a level of trust with this. I tend to watch your reviews of relevant things for me and I watch Phil McKnight. I watch a few others here and there, but more so the two of you. Keep it up Henning. I like these rants too 😂
I think a alot of people want back the time when there were no professional youtubers, but people just did reviews etc as a hobby. Not saying I agree as I like high quality videos, which require the maker to be a fulltime creator.
And ye premium is must. I don't mind skillshare and whatever ads especially if it is at the beginner or the end, then I can just skip it
I'm a Premium user and doesn't care to pay my share to keep the platform alive. I love your channel, and be willing to pay for a subscription to continue to have great unbiased and honest reviews like you do. There's not so much around. When I want the truth, I always come to your channel if you made videos on it. Being able to be a paid member and have the opportunity to ask for some products or members only live sessions, well here's take my money.
Danke!
I pay for youtube premium. Like others here I watch more RUclips than TV so that's why I pay for it. The people who scream paid shill at everything are generally inarticulate. What I think they are actually expressing is a real anxiety towards how content is often used to manipulate consumers and lord over them. I am old enough to remember when RUclips was people speaking into low-res webcams. There was something democratic and appealing about that format. I have a tremendous respect for channels like Henning's that give a shit about production and do very good production. Some audiences just get irritated by content creators who have a certain access/advantage/availability of gear and opportunities. It has a lot more to do with personality and messaging. I'm of the opinion that if you don't like a certain personality, just vote with your feet by not watching.
13:26 the bells !!!!! Ahh the bells.
I thought we were having a nice coffee in the balcony listening to the birds but this fella just kept talking about math or something.
At least he’s entertaining.
Use the links!!!! The animals need food!
19:11 there a lesile who also requires funding and daily maintenance to tolerate her herr.
Lesile rules
Just because it it made me laugh. The first ad i got on this video was how cinnamon makes you 💩 better.
I wonder if creating a subscription based self hosted subscription service with a bunch of your youtuber friends would a viable alternative. something like truefire for reviewers?
I don’t mind if you get paid by a company. Better than having ads when I pay for premium. As long a you say it’s paid, I don’t think most would mind.
I understand the need to make money . Honestly the thing that bugs me the most is I will be listening to a RUclipsr and then all of a sudden they break into a marketing thing about Sweetwater. Honestly I have been doing everything I can not to buy from Sweetwater because they obviously have a hold on RUclipsrs. If they would a screen add in the corner of your video I would prefer it more. There is no need to have a RUclipsr stop mid subject to tell me about Sweetwater. Also when a RUclipsr does this action they look like a shill. The very thing you do not like people saying to you. - I am trying to be honest. Yes, I do understand you need revenue. I feel there can be a better way to improve the delivery of the ads.
Sweetwater does NOT have a hold on us. Their marketing team are good people who respect what we do and want to support it. If you wanted to support us and what we do, you'd support THEM... they are good people with the heart in the right place. Boycotting them because of it makes no sense.
@@EytschPi42 Henning, I did not mean to upset you. I was trying to look though the eyes of people that think the way they do. The best way sometimes is to put yourself in the shoes of the viewer and try to understand where they are coming from in order to solve an issue.
@@EytschPi42 I feel bad. I really should have structured my reply better in the first place. I respect everyone in the community including Sweetwater. I just wish there was a better way to make everyone happy. Sorry to everyone. There has to be compromise. Hopefully a solution will come to somebody that makes sense and every can come on board.
you do a great job henning... some people you can not help.
when Ads come on while the presenter is halfway through a sentence I find most annoying. After the ad finishes, having to go back and hear the start of what they're saying. If the ads are placed well it's not really an issue to sit through them
👍
Danke für deinen Content. 😊
Werd zukünftig versuchen an die Affiliate Links zu denken.
Hiya, I would be happy to pay a few pounds a month to watch your channel. You have fantastic content and I really enjoy your honesty!
There is a answer, and it will eventually occur when the clients realize their advertising dollars are being squandered, I know I don't mind watching guitar related ads on a guitar site. But you know the chances of targeted product is not possible because they want ALL of the money. Of course a better RUclips can't support everyone having a channel like they do now with "how to make a Greek Salad" with Ty-De-Bol ads thrown in every 5 minutes so the answer returns back to when the clients realize their advertising dollars are being squandered
Just don’t shill for crappy companies. Enough said. Glen Fricker use to do REAL reviews where he gave his real opinion. Then if it was junk he would destroy it. Except for his Gibson V he loves, but pretends to hate on… over and over and over. He should really destroy it if it’s SOOOOO BAD. Don’t be a hypocrite. Like Glen.
I’ll watch 2-3 ads per video. Doesn’t bug me at all. Love sponsored videos. Etc etc.
Just be HONEST.
When you have to Watch 14 ads in a 20 min video. Or 45 sec ad to Watch a 30 sec . Video . It is getting frustrations .
👍🙏
Generally, people can't see beyond their own bubble. Couple that with the fact that *everyone* has a voice in the internet age, and you get a very noisy and crabby environment.
And Landon is my favorite guitar-related troll, by far.
Another thought struck me... The irony is not lost on me that a creator that makes content about the gear the musicians use to make the music that they get paid next to nothing for...is complaining about the expectation that the content should be free. I would guess that a significant percentage of your subscribers are musicians or have affiliation with creating music content, and they have the same expectation of your content that the consumers of their content have.
Ohh and.... i would prefer video sponsors... cause as always i trust you to be honest if its sponsored or not
I know it can be frustrating on your end and people can be overboard and annoying but I think it is good for the general people to be skeptical of how a products described. Personally I have come to trust your reviews and opinions on your channel after taking everything in for so long but that trust isn't unconditional. If someday you go bad, I will move on.
But in the mean time, I think the commissions and ads are fine.
I love the bloody sweater
I’m a premium subscriber. Problem of RUclips ads solved.
Used your affiliate link to buy the Millennium mps-1000 a couple of weeks ago, that should take care of a few 1 euro months 😉
Ads are a necessary "evil", back in the day we were okay with commercial breaks on television channels we already paid to get.... People are weird and entitled
Also the ltd edition tonex a while back 🤔
The answer is: run RUclips ads and ignore the bitching.
The platform allows watchers to comment. They bitch about the realities of the platform. They are entitled to bitch: the platform is bloody greedy. The average watcher might even contribute to some patreons, but few can reasonably afford to support all of the creators they would like to, especially as most creators don't want 50¢.They are mostly dependent on bigger contributions from a smaller, fanatical fan base.
And we're already paying the internet company or the phone company to get these amateur TV channels in a platform with more ads than old broadcast TV. So it's pretty annoying to have to subscribe to a bunch of different streaming services if you don't get a lot of usage from them
Should they bitch to the creators? Not much. Should the rant at the platform instead? I think so. But they get the chance to bitch at you, so they do.
Blame Alphabet inc
Premium is so worth it!
I see nothing wrong with your approach. I don't think these people will stop complaining though and it's not like they want you to earn nothing - it's that they don't even care to think about it. I'm not sure which is worse and I don't know how to fix it.
Takk!
I pay Utube a premium not to see ads. I Rather have zero advertisements. BUT...I don't mind you stating that the video is sponsored by whomever. I simply dont want to watch a 20 minute video that turns into one big ad for the product, disguised as a review or whatever intent to deceive me into wasting my time. Time is money on my side also. If I think you have helped me...then, I will give you a thumbs up and/or check out your affiliates. If people love and wish to support your show, then they should consider Patrion.
Danke! Mal sehn, wie viele mitmachen... 🙂
I like these vids by you Henning, it's good to see youtubers complaining about winging viewers, who don't want ads
don't want you paid to review, and don't want you to earn from sponsors? 50p a month would be the best way?
I am a member of a number of channels that I watch regularly, and subscribe to their memberships, paying them directly
each month, for the appreciation of their content, and It's nowhere close to 50p a month? try £5:99-£7:99 a month
Here is an Idea. Trying to be pro-active here. Not sure how this would work but why not make some kind of subscription based community where a bunch of RUclipsrs can join and get paid from it with very limited ads and such.
You can get pain on OF.
pain?
@@EytschPi42 Le Bread?
15:10 You're describing my experience watching Rick Beato's videos 😂 that's one of the reasons I stooped, but the decisive reason is that I just didn't find his content interesting or exciting anymore.
People just need something to take their day out on. Ignore the crap and keep truckin. You can't please everyone.
We don‘t make money with music, so why should you? 🤣 Just joking, people will always bitch about something, so don‘t care too much about it… 😊
Tell me more about the pyramid scheme from the insurance company :) Thanks, Henning, I'll keep clicking and watching - great insights.
I don't get it... People get content for free. They are able to pick the channels which they trust and like. Still people complain about sponsored content and affiliated links. It takes work and time to shoot these videos. It takes work and time to prepare for those videos. If you don't trust a content creator, if you get the feeling a creator is lying to you, simply stop watching the channel. Watching one of Hennings videos never made me think he isn't an honest person. Just go and check out the reviews of this midi-silicon-strings-practicing-guitar-thingy. I think it was called Aeroband MIDI Guitar. You don't have to agree with everything a content creator tells you. You may have your own opinion. I think there are some youtubers out there who won't review a product which totally sucks. Except they are allowed to say it in the video and tell their audience about how bad the product actually is. So go and look for the channels where you have trust in the creator and enjoy the content. But if you entertain yourself with content you get for free, allow the people creating that content to earn some bucks.
You do what you need to make your money, thats cool, sponsored or ads whatever thats your business. Then ignore the trolls that grumble. I would love it all free, no ads woohoo, thats not going to happen so I watch the ads (kind of) really I ignore them but the ad was displayed, great. Got to ignore the moans and bitching as the truth is those people have watched the video and the ads and you've got paid, they may bitch but they keep watching. If the content is great you can have more ads, that would work on this channel.
they want you to work full time in a 'normal' job and make videos on top of that for free. 🥴

Take my 50 cents.
You not gonna like this, but I'll type it anyway.
If your business makes enough money for you is as much my problem, as much my music not being listend to is your problem. I understand that idiotic comments grind your gears etc. , but that's the disadvantage of reaching lot of people. The encounter with the stupid is inevitable.
I got Premium as I got so annoyed with the adverts. Enjoy my $0.001 🤣
The reason you can’t win is no one actually cares if you’re making money or not. People just love a moan. The two things are unrelated.
So are my comments just going to keep getting deleted here because my username and meme frogs are too offenseive for Germans for whatever reason?
No, comments are not getting deleted, but what often happens is that they don't even show up for some reason... that is a RUclips thing and definitely not me.
I will delete comments, but only the most offensive stuff... it takes a lot for me to delete a comment.
@@EytschPi42 cool, and i kind of took you as someone who wouldn't do that, which is why I was surprised my comments kept getting deleted (like 4 of them), as i think what i said was pretty innocuous; just that the majority of youtube users are still a bit "older", unlike its newer competitors, and that specific bracket of people yearn for a time past when it was "You"tube, not "corporate"tube, which is what it seems to be becoming to those people.
That bracket of people also tends to have more money now, which is why they watch "gear reviews".
So i think the divide comes from the fact that the general audience for this kind of content, though theoretically having the money to spend on gear beyond some basic setup, is used to a more "free" internet, and they (i say this because I'm one of them) know there's always going to be another up-and-coming guy with stars in his eyes looking to review products just for the sake of getting gear, so there's not much incentive to actually pay to watch these kinds of videos nor sit through more ads for them than one might feel like watching.
That environment wasn't created by the viewer, it's all YT/Alphabet's doing.
