Top 1 by subscribers on YouTube. YouTube channels with the largest number of subscribers - that's Yes. The most common mistakes of novice bloggers

01.04.2020

The phenomenal popularity of the YouTube service has given rise to a whole trend on the Internet - video blogging. The most popular channels on YouTube have several million subscribers and tens (or even hundreds) of billions of views. These fabulous figures give rise to even more fabulous rumors about the “rivers of gold” in which top YouTube bloggers bathe. Which, in turn, forces more and more new users to start their own channels on YouTube, post a lot of videos of ambiguous quality and content, and imitate “YouTube stars” in every possible way. This is happening all over the world, in Russia in particular. But the absolute majority of channels on Russian-speaking YouTube do not have even a fraction of the popularity that the top 10 Russian-language YouTube channels have. In terms of the number of subscribers, the total “army” of these channels exceeds 77 million!

Well, now more about each of them.

Leader of the top 10 YouTube channels in Russia – Ivangay

This incredibly popular video blogger owns a channel of the same name (Ivangay, formerly EeOneGuy), which has as many as 11 million 798 thousand subscribers! Just a scary number.

As of the date of preparation of this review, 310 videos posted by Ivangay on his channel have collected a total of more than 2.6 BILLION views (although he is only in 2nd place by this indicator).

How did the channel of the most popular Russian-speaking YouTuber start? No matter how trivial it may be, it’s from Minecraft let’s plays. If the last 2 words are unfamiliar to you, then (this is good) we are ready to “pump up” your erudition by telling you what it is.

So, the term “let’s play” is explained in Wikipedia as follows:

Those. a video blogger films him playing and comments on the gameplay, and then someone watches it. If you ask yourself the question “Why is it needed?”, then it’s better not to ask. The let’s play genre is so popular that there are even special TV channels dedicated to this activity, and “streams” on video hosting sites attract millions of viewers around the world, bringing let’s play video bloggers millions of dollars.

Well, what is Minecraft? Again, let's ask the all-knowing Wiki:

To make it even clearer, this “indie game” looks something like this:

Again you ask the question “Who needs this”? Then you are either too old for “all this”, or simply not “in trend” :) As you will see below, Minecraft has become the “launching pad” for the lion’s share of our top 10 Russian-language channels on Youtube.

The first video of blogger Ivangay dates back to March 24, 2013, i.e. he posted it 5 days after the launch of the channel on YouTube.

At first, only the gameplay was reproduced in the video with voice accompaniment by Ivangay’s comments, but already from the 9th video, the video blogger decided to “reveal his face to the world,” which was displayed in the corner of the screen. Vivid emotions, comments and cuteness of the “host” definitely contributed to the increase in the popularity of EeOneGuy’s videos on YouTube.

Thanks to whom did Ivangay’s YouTube channel become so popular? Of course, thanks to the main “consumers” of such content - schoolchildren and schoolgirls aged 12-15, who consider it their idol. Guys like to watch a person of the same age as them (or a little older) openly grimace for the camera or play and say whatever he wants, and girls squeal from “how cute Ivangai is.”

It is clear that the fame of Ivan Rudsky (yes, that is the real name of this blogger) is not some kind of spontaneous accident. Still, the number 1 video blogger on Russian YouTube does enough quality content: here is the staging, and good video mixing, and high quality sound with a picture. Well, in the end, Vanya himself is never a fool.

An example of his video from a time closer to our days:

High quality, with humor, very interesting for many. The result is more than 9 million views of the 6-minute video!

This is the secret of success.

Let's move on to YouTube mastodon number 2.

No. 2 in top 10YouTube channels in Russia - Masha and the Bear

No matter how strange it may be, the second by the number of subscribers and the first by the number of views in the ranking of Russian-language YouTube channels is an animated project, initially aimed “at TV”:

Yes, yes, this is everyone’s favorite (especially for children’s audience) cartoon “Masha and the Bear”.

As of June 2017, the number of subscribers on the YouTube channel of this project exceeded 10.3 million people, while it has an unreal 12.1 BILLION views!

If the television viewer was first introduced to “Masha and the Bear” in January 2009, then the YouTube audience saw this cartoon in their “home field” much later: the Russian-language channel “Masha and the Bear” was created here on May 31, 2011.

Unlike many filmmakers and cartoons, the promoters of this project in no way prevent viewers from free access to their creation. On the contrary, they contribute to the “viral” spread of the animated series on various resources, including pirated ones. The conquest of the YouTube space was also quite logical and visionary: it is not only popularization of the project, but also a good income from partnership with YouTube (display of advertising). Moreover, the creators of “Masha and the Bear” are waging a very cunning fight for views: for each episode of the cartoon, several “trailers” are pre-posted, which themselves gain from several hundred to millions of views. Well, uploading a full episode is guaranteed to have more than a million viewers.

Thus, the absolute record was set by episode 33 “Sweet Life”: 627 and a half million views!

The reasons for its popularity and second place in the ranking of Russian YouTube channels, we believe, do not need strong explanations: “Masha and the Bear” deservedly enjoys the attention of families with children thanks to its very high-quality execution: in less than 10 minutes, children are told another interesting, exciting and funny story with original and beloved heroes. Mischievous Masha and poor Mishka, looking at whose adventures anyone will begin to smile, are concrete proof that the Russian animation school has not only not lost the heritage of the Soviet past, but is also capable of making a modern product that will be close to every child, no matter what language they speak. said. Proof of this is more than 10 foreign YouTube channels - clones of "Masha and the Bear", the views on which also number in the millions.

And, according to tradition, the first video from the channel:

Third place in the ranking of RussiansYouTube channels: CrazyRussianHacker

To be honest, we cheated a little by including this channel in our Top 10. The fact is that the only Russian here is the video blogger himself, a couple of dozen videos with a title in Russian, and the word “Russian” in the name of this YouTube channel:

All videos on the “CrazyRussianHacker” channel are made on English language with an indescribable Russian accent! In fact, the creator of the project, Taras Kulakov, actually comes from Ukraine. But, having moved to the USA to pursue the “American dream” and somehow came to video blogging, he nevertheless began to use the image of the “Russian guy”. This is understandable - stereotypes about Russians in the USA will clearly be better known than anything about Ukrainians (gentlemen, Ukrainians, if you are reading this now, no offense).

So, what statistics is this channel ready to boast of?

Subscribers - 9,905,572 (as of June 2017).

Number of videos – 1037! Bearing in mind that the channel was created later than the two “competitors” already discussed, Taras’s productivity is clearly higher. Although, given that there are still fewer views, we can conclude that he wins not by quality, but by quantity :)

Although in fact this conclusion would be erroneous - in terms of its usefulness, the CrazyRussianHacker channel will give a head start to both the already reviewed and less popular channels. His videos are full of various experiments, life hacks and reviews in the “Do it yourself” style, so useful information for the viewer there is simply an insane amount. However, the trouble with YouTube is precisely that the vast majority of users come here to watch something “cool”, funny and not taxing on the brain, which is why such a useful channel loses so much to the same Ivangay.

How did the CrazyRussianHacker YouTube channel start? In May 2012, this video was posted:

Of course, this video didn’t even get 300 thousand views, but the style and presentation of the material are already visible here. And it's really interesting! With the growing popularity of the channel, the videos posted by Taras began to gain much more views. For example, this touching video with a “dog” - 6 million:

We strongly recommend that Russian-speaking users familiarize themselves with this channel; fortunately, the “subtitles” function will allow those whose English is not particularly “pumped up” to understand what our fellow countryman is saying in his videos.

Top 10 Russian speakersYouTube channels:SlivkiShow in 4th place

The SlivkiShow channel is another example of the triumph of a Ukrainian video blogger on YouTube. Since the channel was registered on December 11, 2012, it has accumulated as many as 8.5 million subscribers (as of June 2017). His 189 videos collectively collected 1 billion 214 million 470 thousand views.

And the videos on the SlivkiShow channel definitely have the coolest and most touching screensaver!

What does video blogger Yuri Yaniv talk about on his channel? The videos by this author are both interesting and educational. Some are even funny :)

The first video on the channel, for example, was about how to cope with the heat (relevant for many in the summer):

Here’s an interesting observation: if at the beginning of his “career” Yuri Yaniv actively starred in his own releases, then later his face disappeared from the videos, but his pets appeared - the cat Cookie and the hamster Styopa. This change of main characters had an extremely positive impact on the popularity of the SlivkiShow channel! After all, we all know that cats rule the Internet :)

Now the channel is actively developing, it clearly shows “following trends”, that is, coverage of the topics that are most interesting to everyone. So Y. Yaniv can be considered a very insightful person - after all, he knows how to attract even more subscribers to his “army”.

It remains to wish him good luck, and YouTube more channels like this, which, instead of clogging up the brains of young people, bring real benefits in terms of the general development of viewers.

Middle Top 10 – channel “AdamThomasMoran

On this moment The AdamThomasMoran channel has 8 million 308 thousand subscribers, who have seen a total of 1 billion 622 million views. What captivated young viewers so much?

Incredible Interesting Facts, interesting story? Nope, who needs that! But Max Golopolosov jokes well and simply swears masterfully! Well, what else can attract the attention of a 13-15 year old teenager who spends most of his time doing exactly the same thing. Okay, okay, let’s not put clichés on the audience of this channel - we are just emphasizing its main - so to speak, distinctive - features. It’s just that no one else in our Top gives out such a “mix”.

The channel started on July 25, 2010. From the very beginning, the author stated that the idea was borrowed from the mega-popular American blogger of that time - Ray William Johnson. The essence of the idea: take several interesting and funny videos, demonstrate them to YouTube viewers and provide the whole hodgepodge with original author’s comments. And the first video on the channel is proof of this:

Please note that neither the terrible sound nor the equally terrible picture quality prevented the video from gaining more than 8 million views.

However, Max quickly corrected the quality of sound and video, but left the “content” and the leopard wall unchanged throughout all 427 video recordings (as of June 2017).

With his successful experience, Max “infected” many YouTube users, who subsequently also became very successful on YouTube. Thanks to him in the open spaces of this service a lot of funny content appeared, for which we can say “thank you” :)

But enough about all the famous Maxim, let's move on to the next participant.

Sixth place in the top 10 Russian YouTubers – FROST channel

Video blogger FROST and his channel of the same name are another example of how popular the Letsplay genre is on the Internet. The vast majority of the 1,180 videos here are about the author (alone or with friends) playing video games. And yes, the name “Minecraft” appears many, many times here too!

As of June 2017, Frost's channel has more than 6.5 million subscribers, and the number of views has exceeded 2.5 billion. Just imagine how many people were sitting, staring at the monitor and watching the blogger play games! Well, isn't it wonderful?

Who is this Mr. Frost? This is a simple Nizhny Novgorod guy, Yuri Murlin, who in October 2012 decided that he, too, was ready to show the entire Internet how great he was at playing Minecraft and what kind of “head thoughts” he had while doing so. He, of course, poured out these thoughts into the ears of a grateful audience.

It is worth noting that Yuri Frost is not at all shy about showing off his face, loves to communicate with the audience and generally demonstrates in every possible way how cool he is. And, judging by the number of subscribers, many agree that “he’s cool.” Also, obviously, to grow the popularity of the channel, FROST is actively diversifying its content by filming “challenges”, parodies and simply fooling around on camera. Yes, yes, those who are just fooling around can also collect several million views.

The most popular video from the “frozen” YouTuber currently has more than 12.5 million views - this is how much popularity you can “grab” from the mention of another popular blogger.

What can you say about the channel in general? If you like to watch a young, confident jock play various games and have fun in other ways, this is the place for you!

7th place in the ranking of popular RussiansYouTube channels –ThisIsXorosho

It just so happens that often the top bloggers on Russian YouTube are not Russian citizens at all. We have already seen several Ukrainians here, now it’s the Latvians’ turn to make themselves known. And they declared! The Latvian team, known primarily for its presenter Stas Davydov, created a Russian-language channel in October 2010, which over the almost 7 years of its existence has grown to 6 million fans-subscribers! Both subscribers and other viewers watched 712 videos posted on the channel, a total of 1 billion 268 million 620 thousand times! And we are sure that both the army of the “This Is Xorosho” channel and the number of views will only increase.

The fact is that the guys creating this project really put all their talent into it. And, if at first the content looked “damp”, and the presenter did not show himself entirely confidently, then over time the show jumped not just over its own head, but over its head, and several more heads. Peculiar humor, a considerable amount of sarcasm, mentions of trending Internet events, interesting “author’s” inserts, the absence of ear-piercing obscene tirades - this is what makes a successful YouTube channel!

And it all started with this:

Well, after 5 years the show looks like this (feel the difference):

Oh, yes - we didn’t talk about the main thing - the format of the show itself. Remember Max +100500? His channel is also called AdamThomasMoran, and he is in our Top 10 YouTube channels in 5th position. So, This Is Xorosho is almost the same, only without the flow of obscenities and with “tricks”: Nastenka, Channing, Unshaven, “ Russian videos from car registrars”, “Random comment” and much more. This channel reviews videos that have either gone viral on the Internet or are the most interesting of the videos that were sent to the channel by viewers. Yes, yes, the cunning creators of this channel simply ask viewers to send interesting “videos”, which will then be shown to them :) Brilliant? Not that word!

The audience of this YouTube channel is also not particularly respectable, but thanks to the more “intelligent” humor, the This Is Xorosho video is watched by people 25, 30, or more years old.

Let's be honest - we like this channel :)

Well, who is on the 8th line of our “Top”?

Top Russian channelsYoutube –TheKateClapp in 8th place

The idol of millions of girls aged 11-15 years, video blogger Katya Klap has 5.6 million subscribers on her channel of the same name. Ekaterina Trofimova (real name) won her audience with her spontaneity (often adjacent to deliberate infantilism), diversity “ characters“(Katya uses “stage images” of various characters invented by herself and performed by herself), an abundance of thematic content (videos for girls - makeup, things, etc.). In general, we can say that the Youtube channel of the 24-year-old “vlogger” is an example of the successful implementation of acting, directing, and marketing talents!

TheKateClapp channel appeared on Youtube on December 6, 2010, and the first video on it was made in the form of a dialogue with an existing loyal viewer:

You shouldn’t be surprised by this presentation: the fact is that TheKateClapp is the second channel of the popular video blogger. The first one is called FoggyDisaster and it was launched 2.5 years earlier - on August 20, 2008. True, it did not gain such popularity, therefore it does not appear in our Top 10 most popular channels on YouTube.

In terms of the number of videos, Katya Clapp’s channel does not try to be “ahead of the rest” - in total, as of June 2017, there are 364 videos. But almost each of them collected more than 2 million views. Well, this “creation” of Katya Clapp has crossed, for example, the 8 million mark!

So cool :)

If there is a channel for girls aged 11-15, then somewhere there must be a channel for boys of the same age. And he is! Even two. They “rest” in the last places of our Top 10 most popular channels on Youtube in Russia.

9th place –Youtube channelTheBrianMaps

The channel with over 5.3 million subscribers belongs to a guy who will turn 18 on September 25, 2017! And the name of this young genius is Maxim Tarasenko. He took the pseudonym “Brian”, which then became the basis for the name of the channel.

What has this blogger been doing on Youtube since June 2012, when the channel was launched? 13-year-old Brian started “let’s play” in Minecraft – i.e. followed the fashion trends of the then YouTube. And I was right. By the way, M. Tarasenko’s acquaintance with video blogging began not with the illuminated channel, but with the long-abandoned “Maxutko99”, which Brian launched a year earlier.

But let’s not talk about the past, because among all Maxim’s projects, TheBrainMaps made it into our Top 10.

So, as of June 2017, we have 288 videos, the total number of views of which is more than 600 million!

First video on the channel:

It is dated June 30, 2012 and has as many as 604.5 thousand views. For an “ancient” video it’s not bad, even very good.
As stated on the Internet, Brain is watched and loved not only for its trending videos (in addition to Minecraft and reviews of other games, the channel over the past 2 years has been replenished with challenges, sketches in the style of “My cat is trying to kill me” and even rap), but also for its abundance humor in the video.
You can appreciate this humor yourself by watching the video, which as of June 2017 received the maximum number of views on the channel, namely 18 million 187 thousand:

Among the latest creative researches, perhaps, it is worth paying attention to “Rep from a cheeky nanny”:

The blogger has been here for almost 18 years, and therefore he allows himself much more “daring” :) Well, if you pay attention to the comments, you will notice that the age of the viewers does not at all keep up with the age of the author.

However, we note once again that the TheBrainMaps channel has still found its grateful audience of 5 million, which means this is exactly the kind of content that the “mass consumer” of YouTube needs. And, of course, the influence of video bloggers like Maxim Tarasenko in releasing similar “teenage antics” onto the Internet is difficult to underestimate.

And finally, we move on to the “last” in our orderly row of top channels on Russian Youtube.

10th place in the ranking of the most popularYoutube channels in Russia:MrLololoshka

The MrLolololoshka channel can easily be put in first place in terms of the number of videos shot - there are an unimaginable number of them - 1263 pieces! Considering the date of creation of the channel - May 28, 2012, video blogger Roman Filchenkov turned out to be the most “hardworking” of all the candidates presented in our rating. True, this did not help him gain a foothold above the last place in the Top 10 Youtube channels.

There are a lot of reasons for this, but the main one, perhaps, is that the video blogger MrLololoshka has fallen behind the trends: while other top bloggers diversify their content in every possible way (the main thing is to catch the hype), the video genre on this channel has not changed over the years for the last 5 years, not a bit: just as Romka filmed his process of completing computer games in 2012, he continues to film. The only thing that has changed during this time is the voice of the “leader”. It’s not surprising, because 19-year-old “Mr. Lololoshka” (date of birth: 04/17/1998) is becoming older every year than his main audience.

What about the statistics? 5 million 75 thousand 982 subscribers at the time of preparing our review, the total number of views on the channel is more than 1.3 billion - better than Brian, Katya Clapp and SlivkiShow!

We will also present the very first video on the channel - so to speak, “for show”:

How the channel will further develop from the last place in our ranking of the most popular Russian Youtube channels is anyone’s guess: the excitement around let’s plays is gradually subsiding - and this is reflected in the number of views of the videos (their number has decreased significantly over the past couple of years). Perhaps the comedy rapper MC’Lololoshka will soon conquer Youtube, or stand-ups and vlogs will appear on the channel - who knows where the “wind of hype” will take Roman Filchenkov?! In the meantime, the school YouTube audience can have fun watching an older idol play with toys for them.

That's it, the Top 10 is complete. Whether it was useful or interesting is up to you to decide! We will be glad to see your opinion in the comments :) Good content to everyone and safe internet surfing!!

P.S. If you want to find out for yourself the earnings of a certain channel that is not in our Top 10, we recommend that you read the review that was published on our website.

Article Top 10 Russian-language channels on YouTube by number of subscribers - counting the personal armies of bloggers was modified: July 4, 2018 by Netobserver

screenshot from YouTube

YouTube is no longer just entertainment for schoolchildren, but a real political tool: in recent months, even oppositionist Alexei Navalny and oligarch Alisher Usmanov have become video bloggers. At the same time, it is not they who are gaining millions of views, but young people playing video games, performing stand up and making videos on how to apply cosmetics correctly. The first place in the top 100 of Russian YouTube is occupied by “EeOneGuy” (Ivangai) - the channel of 21-year-old video blogger Ivan Rudsky, who has already collected more than 11.6 million subscribers with videos about his life and earned money to move to Los Angeles! For those who don’t scour YouTube, we have prepared a selection of 11 video bloggers whose names it’s shameful not to know today.

If you don't understand any words, there is a dictionary at the end.

According to unconfirmed information, Sasha Spielberg’s father is Alexander Balkovsky, co-owner of the Z-Agency studio (a division of Timur Bekmambetov’s film company Bazelevs, which deals with advertising and promotion in in social networks and YouTube). On Russian YouTube, there is an opinion that Sasha Spielberg is not a “blogger of the people,” but simply a successfully completed social project of her father, whose business is affiliated with the authorities. Hardcore YouTubers are sure that Spielberg’s subscribers are screwed, because many of her videos receive more dislikes than likes.

Now Sasha Spielberg films and uploads videos on her channel about how she spends hours playing The Sims, discusses where she gets so many strange cosmetics from, shares her dreams, and also publishes her videos.

Speaking of dreams: two months ago Sasha posted one of the most talked about videos - bathing in a bathtub with chips. In the video, Spielberg admits that it was her dream to bathe in her favorite chips.

On May 22, Sasha Spielberg made a triumphant speech from the State Duma rostrum. Many bloggers on YouTube, journalists and ordinary viewers criticized the girl and even accused her of hypocrisy. Thus, Sasha Spielberg stated that she has been “transparent since she was 13 years old” and actively communicates with her subscribers, which is what she recommended to the people’s representatives. It’s just that on Sasha Spielberg’s YouTube channel all comments are closed, as well as on her other social networks.

Yuri Khovansky's VKontakte page

What he became famous for: Initially, his stand-up show “Russian Stand-up” was not very popular, but with the support of video blogger Ilya Maddison and thanks to a huge number of conflicts, Khovansky gradually acquired an audience of millions.

Khovansky is one of the most scandalous bloggers on the Runet. He publicly insulted Viktor Tsoi and Pot. In 2014, after a spat on Twitter, he called out Black Star Inc label member Christina Si on Versus. Instead of a battle, the girl recorded a video “Yurik”, which received almost 5.8 million views, with the message “You went against the Armenians in vain.” Later, Khovansky said that Christina “set” the “Armenian mafia” on him - two guys beat him in the front door.

In addition to the scandal with Christina Si, Khovansky has a protracted conflict with Noize MC. The performer did not react to this for a long time, but during Versus Main Event 2, which took place on the roof of a high-rise building in St. Petersburg, Noize approached and hit the comedian in the face. Khovansky tried to answer, but they were quickly separated. This did not stop Yura; he continues to dedicate video clips to Noize MC.

Khovansky has a serious conflict with video blogger Dmitry Larin. After a series of mutual insults, the climax of their showdown was battle lisping Khovansky with burry Larin at the Versus site. The video unexpectedly became the second most popular during the entire existence of the project (currently the number of video views is 31.3 million). Khovansky emerged victorious from the fight: all three judges gave him the championship.

Main features: Khovansky is a well-known lover of beer and alcohol in general (he drinks in almost all videos, he even hosts a show about cocktails, Russian Drink Time).

Most popular video: the release of Versus appeared on the Internet in March 2016, and already in October Khovansky imagined himself to be a real rapper and, in the wake of the hype, recorded a video "Dad is in the building" with 27.8 million views. This is currently the most popular video on his channel.

In November, Yura made a diss track against Noize MC "Noise"(almost 14.2 million more views). This caused a negative reaction from the popular rapper Oxxxymiron: who had previously been on friendly terms with Khovansky, Miron wrote on Twitter that Yura “played too much” and “a blogger, in principle, cannot present anything to a creator (even a weak one) on his own field.” Yura also benefited from this situation - he shot an ironic video "Forgive me, Oksimiron"- almost 25.9 million views.

Two more of Khovansky’s videos have about 14 million views. This is a parody of the song “The Ice Is Melting” - “And Khovansky drinks beer” and a joint video with Dmitry Malikov “Ask Your Mom”.

Political position: Khovansky noted that one cannot be apolitical to everything that happens, while creative person It is very difficult, when speaking out, not to be accused of “excessive opposition or, on the contrary, Putinism.” “I don’t understand how people have so much time to look for political subtext in any nonsense,” said the video blogger.

At the same time, he has a comic song about Putin with the words “Putin is the start of censorship on the Internet, Putin is the best thing on the planet.”

In June 2014, Khovansky was the author of a petition to the Ministry of Health demanding that State Duma deputy Elena Mizulina be checked for mental health because of her “absurd bills,” including statements from the cycle “to ban absolutely everything on the Internet.” In a short time, the petition received more than 116 thousand signatures.

A month ago I participated in Versus BPM with another video blogger - Dmitry Larin (the third most popular battle in the history of Versus - 19.3 million views). The victory was not awarded to anyone (but, in our humble opinion, Dzharakhov won - Larin constantly forgot the words, missed the beats and eventually gave birth to a new meme about 2015).

Eldar Dzharakhov's VKontakte page

Number of subscribers: about 1.8 million people (another 2.2 million people are channel subscribers "Successful group", which included Dzharakhov and his friend Alexander Smirnov - Sasha Tilex).

(awesome), noting that it was “interesting to watch.” He expressed surprise that the media were silent about the rallies that took place in the country on March 26.

Eldar Dzharakhov was associated with the reason for the removal of the video “Hitler 1945/Navalny 2018 - We can repeat it!” from YouTube. His representative denied Eldar’s connection with the creation and deletion of the video.

Druzhko Show

Who it: 48-year-old Sergei Druzhko made a bomb comeback.

Sergei Druzhko is looking for mysticism and universal conspiracy everywhere and closely monitors fluctuations on the memes exchange.

At the end of May 2017, in one of his streams he refused to talk about the authorities and Alexei Navalny. “I don’t care about politics,” Larin said. He does not consider it right to “instill a subjective opinion regarding such large-scale processes,” since many people listen to him.

Felix Kjellberg

Video blogger, game reviewer

"I think what I've done, unlike a lot of other YouTube shows, is that I've been able to create a deeper connection with the audience, thereby breaking down the wall between them and what's happening on screen. What I and other YouTube creators are doing is completely different things. The point is that I can create the feeling that you are spending time with me and watching me play games."

On September 2, 2011, Kjellberg began uploading weekly video blogs to the channel, such as Fridays With PewDiePie, or others describing travel to different cities.

Kjellberg himself said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that he managed to “destroy the wall” between the viewer and what is happening on the screen. He tries to create the feeling that the viewer is playing the game with his friend.

The 23-year-old Swede recently signed a contract with the largest multimedia company Maker Studios, founded by the owners of Time magazine and actor Robert Downey Jr.

“When I started my YouTube channel in 2010, I had no idea that it would one day become the most popular and that it would have such a great community of video game fans around it,” said PewDiePie.

If from year to year the demographic situation in many countries is worsening, then YouTube is a separate corner of the Universe, where there is always an increase in the audience…………………..

It was the users who made the popular video hosting site what we know it now…………

It’s interesting that YouTube is built on such a principle that it, in fact, does not need development as such

That is, users themselves upload content that attracts subscribers and ordinary viewers.

In this article, we would like to pay maximum attention to subscribers, who are the main driving force in the development of any account. Much has already been said on this issue, so let’s consider only the key points ↓ ↓ ↓

YouTubeuncut: subscriber or just viewer

The structure of the most popular video hosting site is extremely simple - at its core, it is a platform for organizing blogs.

Each user can add content, invite viewers, chat and much more.

Thus, YouTube also contains social elements. networks……………………………………………………….

Who is a YouTube channel subscriber? ???

Subscribers are viewers assigned to an account who receive notifications about changes in the channel, new content, etc.

In general, nothing prevents viewers from independently monitoring the activity of the project without the need for a subscription.

What does subscribing to a YouTube channel give you:

you can receive notifications when a new video is added;
about any changes on the channel;
about public actions.

1. FREE subscription

To subscribe to channels you need to press the button « Subscribe", which is located under each video. Or, as an option, you can go to the user’s channel and click on the button.

Also, if you have subscribed, you can set its parameters. To do this, select “ Change subscription».

2. PAID subscription

Most recently, the service launched a pilot project in which about 50 accounts took part. Service specialists are seriously puzzled by the issue of paying for the creative efforts of bloggers.

So, soon every blogger will be able to launch a paid subscription on their channel. One of the most important questions is how much a subscription to a YouTube channel will cost.

According to preliminary data, the price of a monthly subscription will be within $0.99.

Rating of channels by number of subscriptions

Some bloggers are covered with success from head to toe and within a few weeks they have the largest and fastest growing channel on YouTube in terms of subscribers.

Other users have to be content with little, wondering why they don’t subscribe to the YouTube channel.

Before delving into these details, let's look at which channel has the most subscribers and which of them has the right to be called the best.

EeOneGuy is the most subscribed Russian channel on YouTube (more than 10 million subscribers);
Get Movies – about 9.1 million subscribers;
Masha and the Bear - 8 million viewers subscribed to this children's project;
AdamThomasMoran (7.7 million subscribers);
SlivkiShow (6.8 million viewers);
FROST (5.8 million subscribers);
This is Good (5.7 million subscriptions);
TheBrainDit (5.2 million);
TheKateClapp (5 million);
MrLololoshka (4.2 million).

For reference !!!

The YouTube channels with the largest number of subscribers belong to blogger PewDiePie.

→ At the moment, the famous Swede has more than 45 million regular viewers.

His income looks no less attractive - according to open sources this is more than $20 thousand per day.

If you want to earn as well as the leaders of our rating, then you must pay very close attention to the issue of attracting subscribers to your channel.

So, you can simply buy a channel on YouTube that already has subscribers or attract them yourself.

In one case or another, if they introduce paid subscriptions, the benefits are obvious.

→ By the way, to get subscribers it is not enough to have an optimized channel (headers, etc.).

All of these methods, including marketing, will help attract viewers who do not always subscribe. That is, while you are spending your budget, subscribers are coming to your channel.

It is very important to learn how to hold them !!!

→ To do this you need to know who your the target audience(children, adults, etc.) what they want and simply give it to them.

Despite the fact that all this sounds quite simple, not everyone manages to realize this truth.
