Love your honesty - wish others were the same about freebies, what they're paid to advertise etc because I feel people are mis-lead and it makes me cynical. Anyway, keep up the honesty we respect you for it! All the changes sound good. I don't like any ads on videos (mostly because they're often not genuine places I trust so it seems pointless for viewers) BUT I think it's your choice so do what's best for you :)
I think the way to love video thing will be awesome! please do them! and your hair too! please do that video because I really want to style my hair differently and stuff! thanks for this vid! <3
i like your hair like that! It looks like you styled it actually :] & those "way to love" videos that i seen before, i thought you were suggesting ways to love products that werent so great haha silly me. & also i like the ideas you had for the fav vids! i cant wait to see some more :]
i love alton towers :] x i love your chanel i dont mind if you miss something out, you have better things to do lol, i dont mind adds you deserve to get something for all your hard work , LOVEYOU BABE XOO
i personally find the ads really annoying, but it doesnt bother me so much that i would unsubscribe. and you deserve to make money of the videos you make, because they take lots of time and effort.
you're using youtube's features the best they can possibly be used - so i think it's a great idea. i think any people who oppose to it completely and refuse to watch your videos are being a little silly.
you give us your time making these videos for us to enjoy ,so i think any money you make you should treat yourself , just my opinion ,thanks for the honesty :o)
I agree with others! I think your honesty is great! Have to say i never knew much about youtube partners until your video! The adverts i just click off anyway so not a problem! I appreciate asking the subscribers first! (not many do they plunge right in with getting the money!) So thank you! ;)xx
Gemma, you must be one of the nicest and most genuine people on here. Firstly I do not mind long favourite videos, I actually prefer them to videos where only one product is discussed. I don't particularly like adverts but it wouldn't put me off watching a video. Some other gurus should learn a lesson from you and your honesty. I don't think you need to make any changes to what you already do. xxx
wow u are so nice by asking people what they want personally i think your channel is fine and if your making money and you want to use it to benefit us then i think thats fine but if you need to money then use if for yourself
<3 the honesty. I would not stop watching your vids just because of an advert . the only feedback i can give is that i do think shorter vids are better ( well 4 me) i have sometimes started watching a vid and had to go somewhere n thought " ow i will watch it again later" but then forget (reminds me i need to watch part 2 of ur haul lol) . i love your video's and find you so easy to relate to so keep up the great work and please dont be so hard on yourself
You should do the adverts cause they benefit everyone in the end. As for the long videos i actually prefer longer videos, maybe i'm in a minority?! At the end of the day you should just do what makes it easier for you and i'm sure the majority of people will support your decisions. x
I dont see why your apoligising at all for sertain things
i think ur an amazing guru ive watched you from the start on my old account then changed to this one for makeup,i just really think you should just do what you do and if people dont like if tuff
i dont see why people are so picky? its your channel you can do what you like and its working because your an amazinggggg guru and i love your idea about the product reviews =] xx
Aww Gemma i love your videos so much, watched you on my other channel since you had a few subs :) And now i made a new account for makeup, so please check my channel out, im from the UK :)
I love how your honest in all your videos about being sent products and stuff x And go for the adverts at the beginning, it's no big deal!! Your true viewers will watch them x Love your videos so much, take care, Fay xxx (sorry for the long comment!!) xx
i laughed so much at managable chunks of people :P So nice that you are honest. i really dont mind you making money! you are great and deserve some money for doing what you love :)
Hey. I think that for the share the love thing.. you should add one persons name at the end of each video or at the side bar because then people will have more chance to look through their page properly and the advert thing is fine by me. xx
its nice that you have been completely honest about this! i havent seen a guru do this yet. in regards to the adverts they are slightly annoying, but we can choose not to view them? and i think in the long run people would appreciate better contests and that! :)
I think people have unrealistic expectations when it comes to advertising on the internet. This is your channel and if you want ads up it's your decision and if people don't like them they can choose to not watch (but that won't happen). I am biased on this topic as I work in online advertising.
Because the questions being asked are mainly questions about what specific eyeshadow or clothes I am wearing, I couldn't answer them in a Q&A video, and the other questions about my age and where I'm from are all on my profile on here.
If you get more money for the ads then go for it! Everyone here would do the same thing! I know I would! I was just surprised because I'd never seen one before and it was a little weird at first. :)
Excellent video Gemma! Agreeing with most other people here - adverts don't bother me in the slightest :) loving all your new idea and can't wait for the video about your hair! :) x
you are so thoughtful! ads and long videos are no bother to me. if something doesn't interest me, i'd either go to another video or just fast forward. that is my choice. also, it is your choice what you want to do with your channel... i am also in agreement with all your ideas! take care!
I like the idea of doing individual product vids for monthly favourite videos because sometimes i don't have time to sit through and watch a 15 min video and then i can pick and choose which vids i want to watch personally.
The big rolling ads don't bother me at all, so i wouldn't mind if you kept them.
All your changes sound fantastic, I don't mind the adverts at all...
but I was just wondering, since I'm only 11years old and obviously do not have the money to be splashing out on MAC products etc...could you try buy affordable products? I mainly adore Eyeko or E.L.F, but unfortunately you can only order E.L.F online...
Hi, Gemma! I don't mind the ads at all, I'll still watch your videos because they're great! Plus all the changes that you've mentioned sound good to me. :)
Just one question: I've checked your profile and it doesn't say how old are you - can you tell me? :)) Thanks!
The adverts are fine, you just ignore them. I watch your videos to watch you not to enjkoy the adverts lol. Leave them it doesn't matter, if peole really like watching you it wouldn't bother them
new ideas are great i feel that it helps people who are finding the right product and gurus by just doing very detail review thank you love the new ideas. your doing a great work !
I liked the idea of your clothes/make up etc in the side bar too.
Im not too fussed about the adverts at the beginning. There's adverts everywhere you go these days and I think that a 5/10 second one before isnt going to make much difference and if it does give you more money then thats great too. I think all these changes are good ideas and thank you for making this video. Hope this helps :)
30 second ad...thats BS >:(
