This channel has been steadily pumping out 20 videos per month for the last 5 years and apart from their top 3 videos which got over 1000 views the rest of their 1,200 videos only have an average of about 70 views each. It looks like a Boomer figured out how to import 90s-era gifs into a video editor back in 2018 and just never stopped

It's from a tiny channel that usually only posts about wrestling, anime and action movie fight choreography. He did an April Fools video about musicals and how they all suck (except RRR)

I understand the long 4-8 hour videos to try and monetize the people who sleep to videos, but 38 hours? Who the gently caress is going to watch that? Comatose patients, wtf? And Beverly Hillbillies? It was memorable only for being on at a time when there was gently caress all to watch.

If you reeeeeeally want to know then the Online Creators thread in RGD has several years of lore about the guy but the basic gist is that he started out as a regular Youtube review guy but got his first big viral hit with a very long video and he just kept leaning into it harder and harder until it got to ridiculous levels

Also that Beverly Hillbillies video is apparently only part 1 of 2

Can't believe it's actually being made and not just a crowdfunding scam. Maybe it is still a scam, just with too much effort.

The initial cost is $700 to $800 depending on which colour you get but there's an ongoing $24 monthly subscription on top of that so I'm leaning more towards it being a scam.

They desperately wanted to invent a Star Trek communicator AI badge but the tech just isn't good enough yet

Etc etc etc etc etc etc ..... this account started in December 2020 and has already posted 4,790 videos, all of them lasting only a few seconds and silently asking for a person to make a specific pop culture costume. A handful of the videos have inexplicably racked up tens of thousands of views but the huge majority of them have next to no views.

There is actual data that shows the thumbnails matter a decent amount to bring in more views

And in this specific case a viewership increase of only a few percent might gain tens of thousands of dollars in ad revenue, if not more. Plus increases or decreases in views compared to your previous output also directly affects whether the Youtube algorithm increases or decreases the number of recommendations your video will get, and if you drop below your average views too badly Youtube will basically stop featuring your video in the 'recommended' sidebar. There's a metric shitload of advice videos on maximizing your thumbnails for optimum exposure yadda yadda yadda, Youtube tips & tricks videos are practically a cottage industry all on their own


Additionally, if you keep changing your thumbnail around there's also a good chance that some people might assume it's a new video and click on it again. :ssh:

a lot of big tubers also have an editor, it amazing how social media/pop media in general keeps tricking people into thinking these type of entertainment jobs are all one person ops(also ignore the nepo babies using their family wealth to brute force the first few years before they finally grow enough to be self sustaining)

Even mid sized channels have editors and the really big ones often have an entire production team because they're multi-million dollar businesses. The Youtube channel Watcher (made up of ex BuzzFeed people) had over a dozen staff members listed on their last video and they recently announced that they're going to dump Youtube and start their own video subscription platform. (That announcement went ..... poorly.)

2.4 million views :eyepop:

The video is over an hour long so it would've made a ton of $$$$ in ad revenue alone, that's crazy
