Broadcast fantasy - The latest
This is a bit of an update on the last post I put up. I recently uploaded a new song to Youtube, and the response exceeded my expectations. The title of it was "Broadcast fantasy". It was an amusing view of TV addiction.
My honours for this video were more than I thought they would be, and there were a couple of firsts too. Literally.
Basically, Youtube has an honours system. Which works on a daily, weekly, monthly and all time basis. There are top 100's for Most viewed, Top rated, Most discussed, Top favourites, Most responded, and some others too. There is an overall set of top 100's that are worldwide, and then there are those that are divided into countries. These are also subdivided into categories. So you could have a video in the top 100 Most discussed of all videos in the world, or you could have one in the top 100 most discussed Music video in the UK.
Getting into the top 100's in som countries is easier because there are less Yuotube users in those countries. The U.S. is the most difficult, and the U.K. is quite difficult as well. Which makes my achievement better in my eyes :)
I normally get a batch of honours for each video I upload, and this is because I have a fair amount of subscribers and friends on my channel, but what I got with this latest video topped it all. I got my first number 1. Not just one, but two!
#1 - Top Rated (Today) - Music (United Kingdom)
#1 - Most Discussed (Today) - Music (United Kingdom)
That was on the 4th June. I was so pleased with them, that I put them in the video description.
This is the latest on my youtube figures.
Subscribers - 651
Channel views - 14,196
Total video views - 211,513
I've got some interesting news coming up in my next few posts. Something I'm getting quite excited about :)
