The aftermath of GOING VIRAL (my first viral Youtube short & how much $$ I made + Youtube tips)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- So my TH-cam video went viral after almost a year of uploading it. This was my first TH-cam short (and generally my first video) to reach 1 million views. So I thought I'd do a dive into TH-cam analytics, how my channel is doing after, what was the revenue and my tips on making viral content for social media.

I am not new, I am here watching this video because I'm surprised that you've only "gone viral' once. I've been watching you for years.
I have, too!
Yep
Me too!
As am i
Same. Back in her blonde days.
I'm not new here, I've been stalking you for years. Years and years
I'm not surprised you didn't have a strategy because my impression was you were just having fun and letting your creative, genius humor flow. You have cracked me up so many times.
i have watched you for a long time because i like your sense of humor ❤
TIKTOK IT'S HORRIBLE for the content creators, that's why the people there always ends making channels on TH-cam.
I hope you keep the strength Barbara and alwats have better times on your future 😎👍
No.....I didn't even see the viral short....been a subscriber for years. Cheers!
Congratulations, Barbara...
Long time viewer, and also surprised this was your first and only viral video. You deserve to have tremendous success, and for every video to generate at least that much revenue to 10 times that amount. I do think the universe was trying to send you a message. 😊
Take care and never give up.
Congratulations Horvat on your first viral upload 🙂
Those eyes 👀 💕💕💕
No i’m not here because of the short I’m here because I’ve been a long time subscriber and genuinely enjoy the content you upload, and you have a great sense of humour.
But you have been appearing in my short feed more often lately but before you didn’t.
Burn them on a disc lol I feel you I still have a large stack of burnt disc’s were there still horse drawn stage coaches being ridden around.
No idea why TH-cam ever suggested your channel to me, 3-4 years ago anyway. Always enjoy your content. Keep keepin on young lady. You make people smile, maybe laugh.
What's better than a million views? Two million, of course. Barbara, good luck!
I am glad for the little bit of viral success you’ve had Barb. I’ve been following your posts since 2015 and always find your work entertaining, hilarious and sometimes informative. You’re a natural comedic talent and have a very endearing personality. I hope you keep posting and enjoy what you do.
I miss the animal suits and hats though
Been here for years actually.
I started following you because a friend of mine fron the USA visits Slovenia for business and he coudn't say enough good things about your home country. I started snooping around on TH-cam and you popped up. I like your sense of humour and now I want to visit Slovenia more than ever. Cheers.
You deserve to go viral. Hope you keep blowing up (in a good way!) :p
Long term subber. Congrats on that viral video!
No, i'm not here for that viral video.I've been a fan a long time. Luv ya
Hell yeah.... Bout time!! Been following you forever! You deserve more attention!!
This is so cool for you. 😀😀😀
I've been a sub since before the major channel(s) change of focus.
I was unaware that vrbvrbvr was a meme, I saw several of your videos even before that one.
Subscriber since Barbara was living in the states and before the hiatus...so been following for many highs and low. Love the sarcastic humor and blunt views shared.
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good for you! Rudi.
Thanks!
Well Barb I think you know I’ve been a subscriber of yours for about 10 years now and that you’re my favorite TH-camr. I just imagined that you’ve had viral videos in the past. You’ve had many that deserve to be of course ❤
Well deserved! I have watched you for years. I enjoy your videos.
That is awesome! I've been on your channel for quite a while, not because of that short. I am a fan of all your content and enjoy seeing new posts by you. You are extremely talented and funny, bringing much joy to many, as I can tell by the comments. Thank you, and I hope this continues to grow for you, Barbara.
Congrats, Barbara. I've been watching your longform videos for a LONG time. Love your dry sardonic humor. ;)
Long time subscriber here. Congrats on viral. Didn’t realize you had a viral video 😉
I’ve been watching your videos for a long time, and I’m actually surprised this is the first time you’ve gotten that many views. It’s been a journey and the content has always been well done and entertaining. Hope things continue to build for you Barb, you deserve it. 🍻
Been here haven't seen the short yet.
I subscribed a few months ago, right about the time of the short that blew up because, coincidentally, I had decided to try to learn Slovenian right around that time (I'm slowly making progress and your Slovenian content is extremely helpful in that pursuit, so thank you so much for that). I found your comic timing irresistibly funny and subscribed immediately. I am actually the odd bird who gets super psyched when I get an alert that you've posted content [8:40], especially shorts, because I know you're going have me laughing in short order. I swore off the big platforms, like BookFace and the Ex Twits' Nest in 2016, and never had an Instagram or TikTok account, so TH-cam is the only way I get to watch your fabulous videos. Thanks for sticking with it! Uspeh vam!
Hi Barbara, I don't think I have seen that short video yet. I started following you not so long ago, and it was because seeing your videos and how you tell stories about your country brings me a lot of really nice memories of when I was almost living there. I visited Slovenija in 2001, I was there because I was sent by my company to implement some software in some of the Slovenijan banks. I was travelling and living like 9 months per year until late 2007, and I was really amazed and loved your country. It was not part of the EU at that time, but I immediately fell in love with the lifestyle and the landscape. Being myself born in Uruguay, South America, it was pretty difficult at first to deal with the language, but fortunately, as you have said many times, I had no problem communicating in English (ok, maybe not so much with some older people in some "remote" villages). I am still in contact with some friends, which after some time being there, and breaking the first wall of being a foreigner, I started to slowly being integrated to their circles (I even spent a couple of year spending Christmas in their homes). Ok, so many histories I could share, but I just wanted to let you know the reason I am following you, and I truly hope you can have fun with this that your are doing, and that you can also make a living from it. Lp. Eduardo.
Not new here, initially wanted to move to Slovenia and searched for TH-cam content revolving it. Now staying for the cool personality :) Happy for you going viral! Much deserved.
As for your comment on "the universe giving you a sign", I can tell you from experience that once you let go of something (in this case you thinking/deciding to move away from the platform) is when things happen. 😄 If you observe this "pattern" in life you'll see it's comically true. 😉
Wow! I didn’t even see the viral video. I remember the 4u2c and the 2.0 days later on. I’m surprised this is the first thing to get so much traction. You were always a great storyteller.
I have been here for years. Found you through a colab you did. Forgot the girl's name. Stopped watching her before she ran herself off the platform. Stayed with you all diring the acting school thing in the US. You are generally very entertaining. So, go you be viral and may success be thrown at your feet.
Congratulations on the success of the short! I am elated to see you get some recognition, as the effort you put into your content always shows.
It may have been how I discovered you. I'm just not sure. But I'm sure glad I did!
I have been a fan since you first went to Hollywood to be in the movie industry. Congratulations on the Viral Video!
It’s hard to believe after all these years you just now get a viral video. Crazy world we live in, huh?
Take care 🎸🤓👍❤️
Been binge watching since July 3rd. There's a woman at work from Slovenia who seems really mysterious and intriguing so I decided to watch videos about Slovenes and Slovenia. Plus I have been off work because of sickness since July 3rd. And I really enjoy your content and humour.
I've been following you for years(even before you disappeared for a while and came back). Congratulations to you and the viral video. Keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing, I always enjoy your work.
Been following forever !!! ❤️🇸🇮❤️
I've been watching you since the first video of you dancing with a mop. You should bring back some of your funnier early videos from barbara4u. You've done some really great work that no one has seen.
I prefer your long form videos Barbara. My favorite ones have not received many views. I hope this new attention will change that.
Grew up in a large extended Slovenien family, I can remember always seeing my aunts or uncles making things to keep themselves busy. When I watch your videos I see that same trait in you, being creative by making and sharing your videos.
I've been following you for ~ 6 months, but not religiously. Not sure I saw the "Big (numbers) Video" - sorry. But congratulations to you for it's success & I hope that more people will watch your long videos. You have a unique style that I very much appreciate - thanks!!
I am not new but I am glad that you went viral that is very cool. I have mostly been watching you since back in the day like 2016.
I’ve been watching your content for many years and I do watch your shorts. I know that shorts audiences are not always drawn to long form, but I’d bet a lot of your long time, long form watchers, like me, watch yours shorts as well. If I like a short, I’ll let it play 4-5 or more times in a row. Your viral one was like that. Great and repeatable.
Nope. I've been here for a number of years.
Side note: This video is an example of why I want to follow you. We get a chance to see the things that interest you not really what you think we want to see. Sometimes you're funny, sometimes thoughtful but they always seem genuine.
Congratulations on the viral video and thanks for sharing it with us.
Your comment nails exactly why we follow this amazing human known as Barbara.
Found your channel a few years ago, think it came up in the feed after watching shoeonhead, really like your descriptions of Eastern European countries. Makes me want to visit.
Been watching all the way back when you were in the US and blond(ish). Even before that one little girl started copying you 😂. Even your other channel... Its good to see you finally taking off!
That was weird as hell. I mean the clone, not being blond and in the US.
@@stevealford230 😆
I have followed you for years, even when you started in Slovenia. I do so because you are a funny girl!
I watch you in the long time TH-cam from and the short time TH-cam, Barbara. I had never seen you on TikTok. I enjoy your humor for a long, long time! ❤ Keep on humor me! 😂
Bright, insightful, funny and serious, all reasons I've been watching Barbara's videos for many years and look forward to watching many videos in the future🤩
I’ve been watching your channels for at least a decade. I’ve always loved your contact, because you are such a warm and funny person.
Haven't even seen the short, been watching since 2018.
Yup
I saw your Croatia video. Really funny and informative at the same time. Binge watched your stuff ever since.
i am here because i have been a follower of your channel for years. i am happy to see you get the recognition you deserve
I've been a subscriber for a long time. I watch because you're hilarious and interesting, and, best of all, because you're Barbara!
It couldn't have happened to a better, hard working person. I hope it leads to sustained growth for ya, kid. You've earned it a dozen times over.
I have been watching your channels since "Squirrel". Thank you for the entertainment down through the years.
Yep, saw that video and then started binge warching your stuff. Love the eyebrows effect and side looks. Fine sense of humour and improv. You are cool person makes me have more hope in humanity
I watched that short when it first came out. Grats on having it go viral. Better late than never.
Found you mid of Juli 2024 ecactly over that short. Then started to look you up. What I love about your work is what I get as slightly self-ironic way of pulling my ear about what I don't know about Slovenia and setreotypes I might have.
Yes, I looked Slovenia up (though I'm German, so living quite in your neighbourhood). Not all of the great landscapes were unknown to me. Due to Biathlon-Worldcup at Pokljuka. There is no coverage of it without showing the lake and it beautiful isle.
I have not seen the short referenced in this video.
I've been subscribed to multiple channels of yours.
Proud of you, B
Been watching your channel for a few years now. Glad to hear this happened to you. Cheers
I love the language learning videos. End up confused and laughing. 👍Keep on trucking. We'll enjoy what you want to do.
I followed you since the days of "what's up internet?"
I've followed you on here and Instagram for about 5 years now, and you always make me laugh! Keep up the good work, Barbara!! 😁👍🇬🇧🏴
I am not knew, I have been watching you since 2018
I've been watching you on and off for years. Happy that you had something grab so much attention. You're a beautiful human and keep your head up
I saw one of your long run videos first and then your short video popped into my feed.
Back in my day, going viral meant a trip to the emergency room 😂. Do what makes you happy Barb.
I'm here because I wanted to know more about Luka Dončić's homeland and stumbled on your channel.. anyone else? Go Mavs!
Happy for you 😊
Congrats luvly Babs!!!

OWN, stay unique! 👍💖😁
Been watching you for a few years now. About time the algo recognizes greatness!
I've been here for many years. It's good to see you get more visibility.
Barb, I don't even know how long I've been subscribed to you. It's been a long time and I'll admit I don't watch every video, but I really do appreciate you and the way you've stuck with it all.
I have been watching u for years.
Thanks for this video. It gives me hope that some if my old content can one day resurface and blow up too. 😅
I've been on this ride for a very long time.
At least 6 years
Oberkrainer glasba za vedno!! 🇸🇮❤️❤️

Congratulations. Been watching for a decade or so.
You earned it. Ride the wave baby.
Been here since there were about 10 of us.!
Well done!
Congrats Babs, may your videos be viral and loved……..
As far as I'm concerned, every video of yours is viral :)
Kar se mene tiče, so vsi tvoji videi viralni :)
I’ve been watching you for years. I remember when you were Barb4U2C :) Congratulations on getting more people to see your work!
Same here 😃
My first Horvat video was the one where she does a skit about being mistaken for a Russian during her first stay in America.
"yes we also have electricity"
"no there's no Russia in there"
"just because I'm from Europe doesn't mean I like black guys" 🤣🤣🤣😭
Viva Slovenia 🇸🇮
Been subbed for a long time this popped in my feed so clicked on it.
I've been watching your content since you had like 2000 subscribers. I'm ride or die at this point love your channel!
recently saw some funny language themed shorts .... really enjoyed those
i like your based style ^^
These days, I am encountering many tourists from the USA in sLOVEnia. 🇸🇮 The very positive portrayal of our small country in the TV show The Amazing Race has also contributed to this.
