Social blade tells me how much everyone earns from TH-cam through adsense pay so no suprise there. Yet thanks for sharing. TH-cam is not worth it for the time you put in. Or hardware and software needed. Unless it takes 1-2hrs to make, edit and publish a vid and to please the pretty particular algorithm. Takes me an average of 4-5hrs and my vids are basic and designed not to take up too much of my time or the viewers telling my life story but to impart useful info that will improve the trade or their life. I think once one qualifies for adsense pay, it's probably best to sit back and enjoy the crumbs they give you, post one vid a week at best. If it takes no more than 3hrs of your time. I've learnt that TH-cam should not take a priority in ones life. Unless you have no other commitments. Yes you can get fortunate and make 1-3k a month yet those fortunate people still have to be a slave to TH-cam. Unless you are doing it for other motives, like to help others, find work from viewers, or its your hobby. Google make a fortune from the free labour of every poor soul trying to be famous from doing little and getting paid. Then instead actually have to work hard to make vids and maintain a tv channel of your own. Then viewers also don't get whats involved, or don't care and send unhelpful comments. Also not all do send unhelpful comments yet you know what I mean. That time making and maintaining a channel is best spent with your family, studying and doing private work. Thats far more profitable use of ones time than TH-cam. Its good for helping others, networking, learning yourself and promoting ones business. Yet income, not really. Better off waiting for google who own TH-cam to drop in price, buy shares and profit from the global free labour people put in to keep them rich. If you can't beat them in making actual real money from Google join them in the stock market. Then sell your profits when they rise. Then buy them when they fall again. As this money printing machine isn't going to drop with its system of free workers. More money can be made that way than killing oneself making vids nonstop. All depends on what you think your time is worth and what your motivation is behind posting a vid. All the best to the ones that make good money from it and the ones that benefit from the content. Hope that helps Keep supporting the channel and keep posting. All the best
Well all these will compound into a big payday real soon. Also you probably helped a lot of homeowners like myself to try to figure out plumbing problems or even fixing it. Also the amount of new kids you have inspired to pickup the trade it’s all gonna thanks to your hard work and videos Thank you buddy for all that you do ❤
Love your videos Dan so I’m pleased to hear you’re going to continue and I hope the rewards increase as you obviously put an awful lot of effort into them. I’ve been a heating engineer for 32 years, self employed for 17 or those and I’ve learnt so much from both you and Luke recently. Could you try reaching out to your favourite tool manufacturers and try to negotiate a discount code you could give your viewers like other content providers do, there must be some kick-back in that so everyone’s a winner👍 Thanks again and keep up the excellent content.
Thanks mate, glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos and learning! However I recon I’d learn more from you! Than you from me! Haha. But thank you… as regards to sponsors, I might look to contact a few but feel i need a few more subscribers to make it appealing to them :) also I don’t want to make the channel to become a sales ones if that makes sense. So happy either way, with or without sponsor :)
Mate TH-cam is 100% about the long game. It can be a bit de-motivating when you rack up the hours put in compared to what you make from it. But like you said, you have to enjoy it. I'm nowhere near Bundy's level, but I've noticed my stats & revenue increase year on year. I'll prob do a similar video towards the end of the year. Keep it going man, and most importantly enjoy the process!
As a retired Plumbing and Heating contractor I have to say I appreciate your openness and honesty and I enjoy your videos. Maybe its in one of your older videos but I'd love to hear how you got started in plumbing and how you have ended up self employed. Anyhow, I hope you do better than you could ever have expected in the coming months and years both in your business and on ytube.
Thank you very much mate. Appreciate that a lot! I have done a how I got into the trade etc on an older video, but could definitely make a better one these days! I’ll get it on the list! Thanks again mate!
Love watching ur vids, content is just rite for me, whatever the money, it’s a bonus. Keep posting, I enjoy em. Perseverance pays off and a sponsor will come along sooner than ya think 👍🏼
Appreciate your honesty. Certainly not a fortune maybe channel sponsor will come forward certainly should do. Wish more people would subscribe to help the numbers. Hope you continue to enjoy making the vids. Keep up the great content all the best Pete 👍
Thanks Pete, maybe a channel sponsor will come forward one day. But at the same time I don’t want a sponsor to ruin the channel, so I’d prefer if people just subscribed, as it’s free for them 🤷🏽♂️😂 thanks for your support as always Pete!♥️
Really pleased for you and I wish you all the very best in acquiring many new subscribers every day take care and kind regards Mark from Billericay 😃😃☀️☀️👍👍
Thanks for this video mate, really interesting, as a tradesman myself it’s always good to know prices and different approaches to work. Keep sending your videos, great to watch and very informative 👍🏻
Better than a kick in the teeth but finding out myself, it’s definitely a labour of love 😂 it’s so much more stressful than what people think, but like you, it makes the job a little more enjoyable!
I really enjoy your videos they are very well put together. I thought you would have earned a bit more for all the work you put in. It must be quite frustrating at times that your subscribers hasn’t increased as fast as you would like. Your content is good keep up the good work. 👍
Thank you Ian, yeh the money side of things. I’d of expected more. But overall I do it to gain subscribers at this stage, the money should come as the channel grows. But converting views to subscribers is where I struggle haha. Thanks for the positive words mate 🙏🏽
Another great video Dan but tbh I expect nothing less from you! I see a lot of creators using click bait but if you’re honest about it who cares, I hope you have success in the future as you are definitely a genuine person who deserves it, glad you’re sticking with TH-cam Tuesdays wouldn’t be the same without Stacey 😂
Save up jobs for Christmas Dan, cash it in lol. I am glad you still enjoy it, I’ll keep watching. It is a bit sad that a lot of plumbing related sponsors are on TH-cam. Keep up the fantastic effort. 👍
Cheers mate. I’ll keep it up. Yeh I do enjoy it more than the other platforms and it makes me enjoy the job too! Thanks for your support as always mate
I’d be interested in a TikTok revenue video, keep doing what you are doing mate, money isn’t everything but I do get the time and effort that goes into the video’s
From my perspective, I'm looking for content and who the audience is. I've been self employed since 1972 and my current ACS expires in 2025, so I'm only looking at content and how it provides information that helps plumbers across the spectrum.
@@Heatking From watching a wide range of plumbing content, here and in the USA and also Roger on Skill Builder; I'd say that you'd have to view your competitors content to gain an idea of why people might be drawn to them. The likes of Tom Kat, Andrew Millward and John Ward's channels who tend to receive fewer views on more technical subjects. If you look at the comments, you'll get a better idea of the audience of your and other utube channels.
Im quite surprised that the amounts are not massive considering how much effort you put in. About a bag of scrap per month🤷🏼♂️😂 nearly at 5k though so going in the right direction.👊🏼👍🏼
Interesting vid mate less than I thought it would be ,thought revenue from ads would be more , do you get extra for number of likes per vid? Keep up the content mate 👍
Shame you don't get better compensation, great videos and always look forward to an upload. Maybe need to push subscribing more, it does get annoying as a viewer, but its part of the system the enables people like you to create content. Thanks for your hard work for peanuts! (Premium user, so you earn a lil more from my views i think 😂)
Haha cheers mate, yes I do believe we get a little from you premium users haha. Not sure how Much like. I do mention in every video to please like and subscribe but oh well haha. I’m not going to do much more than that as I don’t want to annoy my already subscribed ♥️♥️
Overall it’s not as much as I thought, suppose it could pay towards the family holiday, but viewing numbers are good. Some videos have more than filled out WEMBLEY look at it that way. I guess you gotta enjoy doing it rather than try and live off it
Tbh I don't see that your video titles as all that clickbaity, even the more obvious attempts :) if anything you could probably go more full on even for a short spell just to experiment? People have a very strong emotional reaction to the thought of a drama so overly dramatic styled video thumbnails always do better, as annoying as I find them. As an aside, if you were local to me I'd have been calling based purely upon your videos, I suspect many others too, so there is that.
Haha here’s me thinking I was clever using click bait and you say I could go more full on haha. I’m going to take that advice and test it out like you say mate! Appreciate the support and advice ♥️
Was this more or less than you expected? Let me know below 🎉
Just remember those videos will keep paying Dan that’s just all they’ve paid so far , I was miles off 😂 £2.5k
@@stephenfanthorpe2708 haha, you’d think that! But unfortunately A lot of my videos after a week or so just drop off. 😂
