careful. Sounds like a business and you need to be a sponsor to advertise. Check the rules.

Not a business, I've posted a couple videos on here before and never had a problem.

I went to his channel (some great vids!) and I don't see ads on the vids.

His pike and brown trout one is my fav.

Giveaway or not, lots of AO folks share and promote their vids and channel here on AO.

I love it!!

Keeps me sane in the office when I can't get out to put a rod in hand.

Should be fun to see how this goes for you. I have been on Youtube for a little while now and I only have 826 subscribers as of today (Though it is going up better nowadays.)

I have been debating doing the same thing on my channel for a while.

Let me know when you get to the million view club. I got there just this month.

To make money as a business on YouTube you need 1000 subscribers and 10,000 views.

Yes I know because YouTube sent me a notification. There are lots of people making money off views as well as free product.

They are nice videos. It was just a reminder.

You must not need 1000 subscribers if you have a certain number of views though, because I don't have over 900 subscribers, yet I am still making good revenue. Mind You, my most famous video has over 1 million views.

They (YouTube) just recently changed the rules. In order to monetize(make money on ads) your videos, starting February 20th, channel must have 1000 subscribers and 4000 hrs of watching time of your content over last 12 months.

Thanks man! I appreciate the kind words and hoping to have some new content this week. Otherwise will be Sunday or Monday once I have a chance to put content from the Gull Lake derby on the 27th together.

It takes effect February 20th. So you're good until then. I personally have a LONG way to go!!

As an attempt to help out the youtuber's, maybe they should all link their youtube accounts and fellow youtubers can sub!

I just got the email today......well......I think I can round up the remaining subscribers that I need before then. May do a prize like you have done. Only need a little less than 200 more. I've had over 600 000 hours of view time this year, so no worry there.

If you wanna subscribe to my channel, the link is below. I will do the same for all those that have posted theirs in this area.

600K HRS seems to be a little too much for your channel. I bet you got this number of channels stats, but read careful, they show it in minutes. You are still good, as you divide 600K by 60, so you must have just over 10K HRS.

Look again and let me know if I'm wrong.

I just realized that I added 1 too many zeros. For the last 12 months as of today I have 5 725 687 minutes of views. Divide that by 60 (60 minutes to the hour) and you get 95 428.12 hours.

I had intended to just put "Over 60 000 hours" rather than put "over 600K hours." Complete mess up on the number of zeros, my bad....lol. I didn't want to say I had 95K hours of views in an attempt to not sound cocky, but that slip of the extra zero made my attempt fail miserably. Anyways, back to the stats. A little over 89K of those hours come from my one video with over 1 Million views which has obviously ended up being very popular as you can see from the number of views: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80DSbZQrzb8

So ya............... I guess my channel is doing like 10 times better than you had thought and not near as good as I accidentally said before......lol

Just in case if my stats still seem too high to you, here is a screen shot of my stats for the last 12 months. I don't care to share my earnings amount with you.....but you can see some of the other info freely.

So.....I guess we both stand corrected. lol

My best is .5 million over two feeds. My best videos are the whale videos. I am not managing mine for revenue...just passive fun. Did set up for revenue however just cause it was there. Now I am punted but doesn't phase me for the above reasons.

Thanks for catching it. The minute I read your message I saw my mistake. I had to give an explanation for the mess up.
