View the result Hunter and Cron – YouTube channel The largest German YouTube channel for board games is called Hunter & Cron and is run by two friendly men who launched the channel in November 2013. Since then, more than 2,100 videos have been published in which the two (with other guests) introduce board games, review them, publish top lists and more. The channel currently has over 700,000 video views per month. Over 46,000 subscribers on YouTube are already really good for this topic and the two are also very active in other ways.
The Berlin Board Game Con has now established itself and armenia whatsapp attracted around 10,000 players last August. But the monetization of the channel doesn't seem to be going so well. There has been a lot of reporting about declining advertising revenue on YouTube. In the past, you could roughly calculate around 1-2 euros per 1,000 views . That would be around 700-1,400 euros per month. That's not enough for two people who would like to do this full-time, and what's more, this income is currently declining.
That's why the two set up a Patreon account in 2015, which developed well in the first two years. While it was still $313 in January 2016, revenues grew to $2,267 in January 2018. Since then, however, there has been stagnation. Until October 2019, revenues were at the same level ($2,258). Exclusive Videos for Patreons When Patreon was first set up, additional videos for the Patreons were planned, which sometimes worked better and sometimes worse.
