Clip Replay: Channels my viewers watch - 2023 in Review

0:00(static)

0:02If you ever wanna know what channels do

0:04people

0:05who watch my channel watch,

0:06so if you're a subscriber of mine

0:07and you're thinking, oh, who else should I

0:09watch?

0:09Well, Andy Crevel is absolutely at the top

0:11of that list.

0:12Andy's been making a ton of content for

0:15years,

0:16well before even I was.

0:17Andy is the original YouTuber.

0:21He's the OG tablet YouTuber, as it were,

0:24and I think he's just left the information

0:26lab

0:26and he's gone full-time on making content.

0:28So I can't wait to see what he achieves

0:31next year

0:32with all the time he's got now

0:33to put into just serving his audience, as

0:36it were.

0:36That's now his full-time job.

0:38Very jealous.

0:39Maybe I can follow in his footsteps very

0:42soon.

0:42But nonetheless, after that, you've got

0:44Alex, the analyst.

0:44Alex is super popular.

0:45He's a, I kind of go back and forth with

0:48Alex.

0:48Alex is a cool guy.

0:50He focuses on lots of different things,

0:52SQL, Python, Tableau is one of them.

0:54He does make Tableau content,

0:56but he makes what I would call introduction

1:00Tableau content.

1:01It's very obvious that Alex has learned

1:05Tableau

1:05through other resources.

1:07And so when you watch one of his tutorials,

1:10it's very much designed to sort of pair

1:12Tableau

1:13with something else or pair it as part of a

1:15workflow

1:15or really pair it as a more realistic sort

1:19of setting

1:20to being an analyst,

1:21whereas I tend to just focus on like the

1:23technical features.

1:24I'm almost too technical for a broader

1:26audience.

1:27Alex really appeals to that large audience.

1:30You've got Donebell Santos, who's literally

1:33fantastic.

1:35I can't think of anyone who has more bang

1:36for buck

1:37in terms of number of videos to subscribe

1:41account

1:42and view time and watch time and all that

1:45stuff.

1:45I think for every 10 videos I make,

1:49Donebell just needs to make one

1:51to have the same sort of impact.

1:53So she's a great teacher.

1:55She's a great educator.

1:56Her style is really unique to her.

1:58You can't really replicate what she does.

2:01She's very clear.

2:02Her tutorials take you through stuff

2:04like 40 minutes at a time.

2:06It's always detail.

2:08You leave her videos feeling like an expert

2:10.

2:10It's the kind of content I aspire to make

2:13in the future

2:13if I have more time and I have a little bit

2:15more

2:15sort of what I would say,

2:17craft to the way that I plan my videos.

2:20But I just don't have that sort of time and

2:22balance

2:22that it's clear that she puts into the

2:24video.

2:25So super, super useful.

2:26Data Science Roadmap is new.

2:28I have not seen this in here,

2:30maybe 'cause I've never gone to 365 days.

2:33But yeah, Data Science Roadmap

2:35is a kind of like a new channel.

2:36Penguin Analytics is always in here

2:38'cause people watch their YouTube videos

2:41for Tableau introduction and stuff like

2:44that.

2:44Then we've got Stanley George Joseph,

2:46who's making a new channel, I think, as

2:49well, super popular.

2:52But this says, I see this says 365 days at

2:55the top,

2:56but it says 28 days down here and 90 days

2:58down there.

2:59So I have no idea what's going on.

3:02But it's not all in the same timeframe.

3:04So that's just something to bear in mind.

3:06But anyway, super interesting detail.

3:08Most people watch around about my lunchtime

3:11or my afternoon, which is generally where

3:13you have

3:13the most overlap between all the time zones

3:16.

3:16The mornings tends to be Asia,

3:18Asia mostly watching.

3:21The middle of the day tends to be UK, Asia,

3:24and America

3:25watching all at the same time.

3:26And then the evenings is sort of the West

3:29Coast of America

3:30and everything like that.

3:32So yeah, super interesting.

3:34Revenue for go to the last 365 days,

3:36essentially another detailed version of

3:39that dynamic.

3:39So this is all before tax.

3:41So I do not get to keep all this.

3:45I get to keep none of it as a matter of

3:46fact.

3:47(laughs)

3:48Unfortunately, it all has places to go.

3:50I'll talk a bit about that later.

3:51And then research.

3:54This is a new thing that YouTube are

3:56starting to do saying,

3:57"Hey, make videos about this rather than

3:59that."

4:00And so it's kind of interesting that like

4:03the videos that get thrown in here

4:04kind of come from the places

4:06and the kind of content that I don't wanna

4:08make.

4:09So, you know, go make content about Python.

4:12I don't make content about Python.

4:13Okay, let's look at videos related to

4:15tablet.

4:15Hey, look, look at this video that Simply

4:17Land is making.

4:18Look at this video that Donovan is making.

4:20And, you know, two of these are from

4:21Donovan Santos

4:22and I keep saying that her videos are

4:23fantastic.

4:24If you look at the duration, 23 minutes

4:27compared to mine, which is typically 10

4:29minutes.

4:29And then you've also got Tableau

4:31you've got putting a video there.

4:33So that makes sense.

4:34If I go and see all and it shows me sort of

4:36the general gist of what's going on.

4:39So it's kind of telling me make videos like

4:42this

4:42rather than just the ones you're making.

4:44So that's pretty much that in a nutshell,

4:47that's sort of 2023 summed up.

4:50(silence)
