Hey guys, another fun thread here about my Youtube stats. I figure it's fun to see since there's not many (known) Youtube people that really ever release their stats...
All time stats:
Total views: 1,116,751
Total likes: 2,994
Total dislikes: 141
Total comments: 3,940
I got 100k views on my channel, most viewed video 27k views (firebat goes kamehamehaaa, 76 likes, 6 dislikes. -_-' ).
At one point I tried to get subscribers to my channels since it would be great way to promote maps since you need to promote maps to get people notice them. But I cannot really provide constant high quality content, Ill just post more random stuff. With hots I might try to create some better quality cinematics that could even attract people outside sc2 :/.
I think the statistics are somewhat interesting. I wonder if some tags would really help to get views...its probly quite random what people view.
edit* rofl debates of the ancients :D. Thats quite hilarious
Funny to see. My one old WoW video got about 580 views before I removed it, the majority of those being from France. Brrrrr. Somehow, 15% of those views were from an embedded version, which is odd as I've never embedded it anywhere myself.
Edit: Debates of the Ancients Sixen's idea? My ass! He'd wish he could come up with those awesome jokes =P. Iirc it was a combination of mods, Zeldarules28 coming up with the idea to combine Debates with another map for April Fools.

Okay I withdraw my statement then haha. He came to me with it so I assumed it was him.
WoW, i thought people can earn money on youtube only if their channels have several millions of views. How you could get about 143$? When i tried to join youtube adsense, he says that you must have 10 millions unique views per month LOL.
$143 from 16 months of ads isn't really 'earning money' lol. But you guys can do the math and extrapolate to see how much money Husky or VEVO makes. And my ads don't even do the 15s/30s pre-video ads (if they did, I would remove them!).
You DO need to have 50k+ views PER DAY to make any living off of it. But even coming up with that much content, recording, editing, and uploading takes way too much time.
As far as how I made the money, Youtube asked me to revenue a few vids, which they approved. Then they finally made me a full partner (I guess since Blizz condones it now), but it took almost a year to get approved.
I have a really bad video showing off an AI script I made that uses force fields somewhat intelligently and uses it to beat 1000 lings with 16 sentries(on a flat map, no chokes).
The quality is horrible but it seems like if it keeps getting a few views every now and then it'll pop-up on side bar on similar videos and suddenly you have a ton of views streaming in. I have ad revenue on that one and I've earned like $30 in like 2-3 months(it's at 75k views now)
In any video I have ads on, I am using music by only Blizzard themselves, which is allowed.
Weirdly enough though, on my trailer vids, Youtube actually forced me (kindly) to turn off my ads after about a month. They seem to only want me to have ads on my tutorials.

Probably the most interesting (or depressing lol?) stat for people... this is since I've had ad revenue:
On 72,636 page views, I've made $143.39.
Gender:
94.6% Male
5.4% Female
Top Geographies:
US
Canada
Germany
Sweden
UK
Top Traffic Sources:
View referrals from Youtube: 57.1%
Mobile apps and direct traffic: 33.4%
View referrals from outside Youtube: 9.5%
20% of my video views are from embedded sources (hint: sc2mapster lol).
Canada provided only 1/4th of the views that the US did. However, Canada has 1/10th the population of the US.
I have 33k views from South Korea.
Anyone have any other stats they wish to see that I missed? I'd be happy to provide it.

@zenx1: Go
Haha we both have one video that makes up 20-25% of our views.
I'm having trouble keeping up with content honestly. I'm not really interested in SC2 right now (nor have time) so naturally my channel will suffer.
Lol how come you picked out debates of the ancients all of a sudden? By the way it was Sixen's idea if I remember right.

How does youtube make it? They send you message on youtube?
Too bad that all my high viewed videos are copyrighted.
@Hookah604: Go
It seems random I don't know. But yeah they email you with an automated system.
Btw do you use any music in your videos (like copyrighter or so)? I sure do....but I wonder if they care about that when you come a partner.
It seems youtube is smart enough to tell when music owned by a comppany is being used anyway...
