Ben Hardy

[Tribb]

Why does misinformation Ben Hardy have so many videos on YouTube?

Fools watching him and uToob ad payments fund his lifestyle.

 

[DanZman]

There is no accountability for what he says and people watch his videos. So, he makes lots of them to make lots of money.

I tried watching a few of his vids a while back. After a couple minutes of him speaking at 100mph while spitting at the camera and staring at his huge forehead, I had to quit. Not to mention the information in his videos is either trash or has already been covered by other YouBoobers.

I watched some of his videos when nothing was available to watch because of COVID and he couldn’t have been more full of shit. He contradicts himself left and right and kept talking about his time selling cars. I think he was 22 and was trying to figure out when he had all the life experience from. I saw his vid again when someone posted it here about lying about the forum discounts and the best part was when @KnightMare called him Benjy

Has an established audience and views = money. You don't have to say something true, just say something interesting enough to get clicks.

Real question....what's someone like him make $$$ off those videos?

 

[@JC]

Looking at his number of subscribers, videos per month and total views, somewhere around 10k-12k/month just in adsense revenue. Not including any sponsor placements inside the videos which I don't watch so I don't know if he does that or if he sells merchandise (I fucking despise the word MERCH).

This is probably about right.

His videos mostly don't get an obscene number of views. He has a gazillion under 5K view videos (heck I mess around with YouTube as a hobby and with 16 videos, 300 subscriber lol and about half of dozen of mine have over 5K views). That said, you only need a few "viral" videos that rack up 500K to make some real coin. He pumps out so much volume that the low viewed videos add up, and he has a few "viral" videos that have over 1 million views and a respectable number of 100K view videos.

I watch Millennial Farmer (yea, I like farming videos lol), and he has over 1 million subscribers (Hardy has like 176K) and most reports I've seen is MF makes between $150K-$200K/year on Ad Sense. However, MF makes a lot of money off of sponsorships, free stuff (farming equipment ain't cheap), speaking engagements and such. Reports are he makes more money on YouTube than he does farming 2600 acres.

Not hating on Hardy I appreciate his hustle (though I don't like his videos). But he must be investing a ton of time into this for a a barely middle class career. But if he's happy good on him.

Once I get to 1000 subscribers and start getting paid will be interesting to see how the numbers work out (just a hobby, though I've considered getting serious about it when I retire - though I doubt anyone really cares what I have to say lol)

He had 2 of the best rigs in bright colors (Rex & Raptor 37) so naturally he caught the eye of many of us. He’s really terrible at making content though. The close-ups of his acne every video, his annoying voice (and face) and his obvious bias in favor of raptor/Ford really made me hate his vids.

exactly what I was thinking. Lots of time and making a fool of himself for amount of money that can be made in a fraction of the time with more focus of effort and talent. But some people just want to be on YouTube and known. F that (IMO)

Depends on a lot of factors but you can payed per 1k views. So if you used $10 per thousand, that'll give you an idea

 

[Superbrowndude]

Side note, I make no money doing videos. I've made a few how to vids, please check out my channel and subscribe
