 Oh right everyone what is going on welcome back to another video this is going to be the first of possibly a series of of you know back-end style videos showing you guys a few stats a few analytics from my YouTube channel now one of the questions I get asked a lot is how much money does YouTube give you how much money do you earn through YouTube how much how much revenue do you get and well it varies greatly you know one thing can happen as soon as you upload a video if your video has copyrighted content in it it gets flagged and you don't get any revenue that happens on basically every single one of my reaction videos unless I do it to videos on a channel that is clearly monetized such as Joseph Vincent such as KTO such as you know highlight heaven I believe things like that if I'm going for channels like NFL NFL films NHL NCAA things like that nah I ain't gonna work I'm not gonna get anything now today's video we're gonna focus on one one video it is my most viewed video it has over 1.6 million views and it's not monetized but it was now the reason I want to make this video is because I've seen a whole lot of other people make videos about their their most few videos their one million view videos 10 million view videos how much money you get people love talking about money people love figures facts and figures and you know what with the way that my channel goes the way that I create videos I don't like I don't like too many smoke and mirrors you know I like telling the truth and that's what you always gonna get through this channel so that's what we're gonna do now I've talked about in the past copyright claims I've talked about how they work I've talked about how they they take your revenue and what I'm gonna do right now is I'm gonna show you guys on the back end which of my top 10 most viewed videos which is probably accounting for about 7 or 8 million views probably about well probably about 6 or 7 million views but I'm gonna show you guys which ones eligible for revenue which ones aren't then we're gonna pick out the top one of the list which has a total of 1.57 million views rugby player reacts to NFL football's most savage moments fantastic video one of my first but unfortunately one of my least paying but I did get some and that's why I'm making this video in the early days when I put up a video the NFL obviously didn't know about me I don't know I don't know what's happened but basically for the first like three or four months that I put up reaction videos to the NFL they weren't getting flagged and then lo and behold every day I might get a couple more and a couple more would get flagged and a couple more would get flagged and then lo and behold you know basically they were getting flagged as soon as I uploaded them so I don't know whether the NFL on the back end had more staff looking for these copyright claims or whether you know some sort of algorithm change happened but what happened with this particular video I got it monetized for probably the first two or three months and then just like that it was cut off so I'm gonna show you guys exactly when that happened I'm gonna show you guys how much I may have missed out on due to the views coming after that point and let's get into it so here we are on the back end of the channel you're most likely never gonna see this again in your life unless I've got another million viewed video which I tend to think that's probably never gonna happen due to the views on my channel falling off a cliff about a year ago but you know we press on and I'm not gonna give up so with that being said here are the top one two three four five six seven eight nine ten videos on my channel okay by views we've counted it by views if I go like that it's gonna go to the bottom those are videos I haven't put out yet by the way and if I click it again it goes to the top so top video fifth one point five seven million views the second one seven hundred seventy nine thousand third six hundred forty eight thousand six hundred thirty nine thousand four hundred eighty nine thousand four hundred sixty two thousand four hundred fifty one thousand four hundred thirty thousand four hundred fourteen thousand and three hundred and seventy two thousand let's have a look at monetization top one rugby player reacts to NFL football's most savage moments one point five seven million views and it's not eligible for monetization because of a copyright claim which is fine the second one rugby player reacts to NHL hockey's biggest hits of all time now this video is an anomaly this is an absolute anomaly this never happens but I have a video at this point that has nearly 800,000 views and monetization is still on so really I should probably show you how much I've earned from that video but I'm not going to I'm gonna keep that a secret third on the list rugby player reacts to martial and lynch beast mode now this video now this video this this one is extremely important to the success of my YouTube channel over the past 18 months this video was the one that popped this is the one that's honestly it got to about 500,000 views within three days now that is crazy and I was sitting at home with 10,000 subs grinding away for the last five years and I saw that video do that that was a feeling you know I can't even explain I was on adrenaline I didn't even need to I didn't need to sleep for days I was like what is happening with my channel this is it you know I've been waiting so long I've been waiting years for this to happen and it finally happened and the only reason it happened is because I put the work in to make the videos now that video unfortunately no money fourth on the list rugby player reacts to NFL biggest football hits ever this one it says I'm getting revenue but it's you know it's a small fraction of what I should be getting and the reason that this one's claimed is because of the music that I used in the intro and that's one thing I got caught out big time with I probably made about 200 reaction videos with the song all the way up by fat Joe at the start fantastic song I used on my channel for years never got caught with it because it was a clip that was under 10 seconds long and lo and behold a few of my videos start getting claimed and a few more get claimed and a few more get claimed and basically it's because these copyright claim owner these copyright owners the artist or the management company of the artist wait till your video gets maybe 10 20,000 views and then it hits claim because videos under 10 or 20,000 views are pretty much obsolete they don't earn fuck all and so basically what was happening is that any of my reaction videos that got anywhere near you know 50 or 100,000 views were getting claimed and it was because of the music and unfortunately I couldn't go back in and change the music so those videos you know I had no I mean basically I had to be happy with whatever revenue I earned before the copyright claim came in and that's exactly what happened with the NFL football's most savage moments video and that's what we're gonna cover anyways number five this is a different story altogether this is blocked okay rugby player reacts to Barry Sanders NFL career highlights YouTube video nearly 500,000 views and it's blocked and it's only got blocked very recently and I'm fucking pissed off about it but one thing I have mentioned in the past is that when I tried to dispute a blocked video the NFL has a choice whether to ignore my dispute or take down the video and recently that's happened with one of my full-length match reactions to the Jaguars it got taken down and I was issued with a copyright strike if you get three copyright strikes within three months your channel is terminated and I've got one currently effectively what could happen is I can go and dispute that blocked video try and get it unblocked it backfire on me and then I could have two copyright strikes so for now I'm just leaving it but it's a video with 500,000 views over 3,000 comments nearly three you know nearly 4,000 likes and it's blocked for what reason why is the NFL blocking that video why can't they just be happy with the revenue that they make I don't know anyways it's an algorithm thing honestly you can't explain it number six on the list rugby player reacts to Ray Lewis the greatest NFL career feature film now this video went crazy this video is probably probably got me you know the better part of maybe 5,000 subscribers just from this video it was one of my earlier ones one of my most genuine reactions because it was very very early in the piece and it was my first look at Ray Lewis and you know back then I didn't know how legendary Ray Lewis was but clearly he is now with that video it's once again ineligible so don't earn anything from it but thank God it's public number seven on the list Troy Palomalu once again blocked once again after nearly five hundred thousand views over 2,000 comments and you know nearly 5,000 likes that video deserves to be out there for people to watch but it's not and I can't do fuck all about it number eight in the list here is where it changes this is a piece of content that is solely mine it is me it is no one else I'm not using any music nothing and those are the videos that you've got no worries about people claiming your content nothing like that you reap the rewards of your content and that's that and that's the kind of content that I started on my channel with now these reaction videos brought in a whole whole different type of video but it also brought in these these copyright claims that I never had to deal with before and this video is an example of that how to sidestep like the pros 430,000 views 400 comments four and a half thousand likes and I have kept all of the revenue I believe it's probably around five hundred dollars and for 430,000 views 500 dollars is probably a decent amount but unfortunately that is you know and I have to admit that's the only video that I've created solely myself in my top 10 most viewed videos so it is what it is I've never used YouTube for revenue I've never thought of it as a full-time job although I would love to do YouTube as a full-time job one day but I think for that to happen I'm gonna have to increase my memberships on the channel which you can do for a certain price per month you can support the channel or I'm gonna have to increase my patreon membership because you know with ad revenue as you can see you know if I was keeping all this revenue from my my top view videos maybe things will be different but I'm not so anyway at number nine we've got rugby player rex, Saquon Barkley top 10 plays of PSU and you know this video has probably brought me in about 3,000 subs but no money unfortunately 414,000 views nearly 3,000 likes 3,000 comments nearly 6,000 likes and I don't earn anything from it it's fuck it's it's heartbreaking and then we've got number 10 rugby player reacts to JJ Watt NFL career highlights and it's ineligible for monetization because of the copyright claim which is fine I use the NFL's content and we've got 3,000 comments 5,000 likes but no money it's a travesty anyways let's get into the top view video this is what this this video is about how much how much how much really did YouTube pay me for my most viewed video 1.5 million views we're about to find out let's do it so as you can see on the back end this is what I see I'll show you this once and for all we've got the title we've got the description we've got the thumbnail we've got the tags over here we have a little preview of the video we've got the visibility it's public we've got playlist that it's in cards which is those little annotation screens that come up the top suggesting other videos which I never use and an end screen which comes in in the last 20 seconds to give you an opportunity to subscribe or watch another video so that's what you see on the back end and if we go to analytics this is what you see here so this is the last 28 days we've got nearly 7,000 views it's gave me 15 subscribers which is you know pittance and no revenue so let's take it back to since uploaded so the lifetime of the video and there we have it the video came out on the 9th of August believe it or not we had 11,342 views in the first day from there it went down to 1,800 on the second day and then it started popping off and it probably took about a week and a half for it to really hit its peak that was on Tuesday August 21st where it had nearly 100,000 views that day from there we had a day of 50,000 40,000 60,000 then it popped off again to 83,000 and from there it sort of tapered off went down for another week halfway through September it went off again averaging about 40,000 views per day and since then you know it's it's had one one particular you know good period at the start of December last year where it was averaging probably 5,000 views a day and since then for this whole entire year it's probably averaged you know probably a few hundred to maybe 500 a day but unfortunately I've earned nothing now that's the views okay so look at that graph take a good look at it and then we're going to go over to your estimated revenue now as you can see this whole entire video 1.6 million views netted me a total of $745 and 50 cents I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to show that but I'm going to there's gonna be no pixels or there's gonna be no blurred out sections of this this this video okay you're seeing exactly what it is exactly what I see and exactly how much it got paid that's what this video is about that's what this channel is about 745 dollars and 50 cents from 1.6 million views the most important thing about this video is the amount of subscribers I gained which was 5.4 thousand five and a half thousand subs from one video that's amazing okay so we got here 1.6 million views as you can see the the peak was on August the 21st 2018 the second peak was a week later on August the 26th 2018 and if we look over here we click on the revenue we're gonna see exactly when the claim was created and when the revenue was cut off so let's do that now there there we go August the 26th the second peak of the video we earned $84 on that day from how many thousand views from 83,000 views so basically basically a dollar per thousand views if we go back over here the set the first peak was on August the 21st which as we can see here we got 96,000 views and we received a total of $80 so throughout the time that this video actually earned me money it was probably tracking along at about a dollar per thousand views so what that tells me is that if I did keep all of the revenue from this video throughout the whole entire time I'd most likely have made you know about $1,600 $1,500 $1,600 what I did make was 745 so as you can see 26 of August $84 what do we got here can we zoom in here a bit oh shit not like that so as you can see August 26th $84 $0.46 August 27th $33.24 and August 28th we got a total of $0.03 and from August 29th 2018 on we received nothing
