>>12719134Ah, okay. Lemme copy-paste and digest the points on ad-rev then
- Hal himself is pretty surprised after finishing the chart. He knew Ad Revenue played a big part into his income but didn't know it was this significant.
>This shouldn't be a surprise and likely holds true for the Holomem. YT is a video watching site first- He made a point where old video uploads play a great value since people are still watching it from time to time, even when they're old. And all of them pile up to contribute big into the Ad Revenue.
>I'm guessing he means things like clips and whatnot here. Yes, that also makes sense, highlight reels are great replay value even months after they've happened, especially for something like Apex or any other FPS- On the other hand, even though livestreams also generate Ad Revenue, the fact that they aren't generating many views after some days passing and apparently they have lesser value in revenue generated for livestream compared to video upload made the latter becoming main source of his income.
>Not generating views once several days have passed? That's not the case for some Holomem like Gura. Just look at her continued growth on some of her vods (*not all of them, but many). On this point, any Holomem that has continued Vod growth days or weeks after the original stream will continue to gain adrev, unlike someone like Hal who appears to have stated that his old VODs don't really get many views. Also I do get that the revenue for ads may be calculated differently, but we also have to factor in YT premium VOD views, which muddies the waters a bit. - Pointing out that since video uploads are also connected to the increase of subscriber count, it's pretty strong.
>Hal doesn't have a dedicated clipping scene like Hololive, so it makes sense for him to have highlight videos uploaded to his channel to contribute to his growth. Meanwhile, Hololive has basically outsourced this and hacked the YT algo as a resultI'm welcome to corrections if you see anything that's incorrect.
