There’s no question that YouTube’s Fred is about to reach 1,000,000 subscribers (see popular video with opinions on this matter).
But how many do I have? Which count should I believe (both screen shots taken within past hour). Am I at 100K or approaching it?
Speaking of accuracy on the Interweb, why is the Nalts wikipedia page looking like an ad? I didn’t touch it!
Bored? Click this link, and you’ll get the best 60-plus “Best of Nalts” video playlist running without stop. Works better than Ambien.
Kate Gosselin got a chicken coop from Horizon Structures on a recent “Kate & 8.” Kate Gosselin (Kate & Eight, Dancing With Stars) lives fairly close by — she in Berks County, PA. and us in Bucks County, PA. While we have little in common beyond kids, we’re now bound by our shed provider. Horizon…
There are some nice nuggets in this piece by Robyn Tippins in AllBusiness.com. It’s titled “10 Ways to Succeed at Viral Video.” I especially like Robyn’s advice to gain student “thought leaders” to test and gain initial traction. And her willingness to “start over” if something doesn’t get a good early response. I rarely do…
comScore’s February data once again shows Google’s dominance in the online-video market, but Facebook is catching up. It’s now the fourth-largest online-video sharing property (see Facebook’s unofficial resource for more information). Facebook, as a sharp contrast from other sites, has short bursts of viewing (far shorter durations than other properties like YouTube, Hulu or Viacom…
I’d buy a bag full o’ shit if Rhett and Link were promoting it. They are probably the best creative duo for online-video promotions, and I’ve written about many of their promotions, from Butterfinger to Alka Seltzer. Perhaps their weirdest campaign, “I Love Local Commercials,” has the comedic pair bringing life to an otherwise boring…
I’ve been studying online-video comments for a few months, and I’d like to share my unscientific but well-documented conclusions. Online-video commenters come in three segments: Angry cynics (66%) Supportive fans (23%) Self promoters (11%) For some of my videos it would take more time to read the comments than it did to shoot, edit and…

HAHAHA, wow. I remember a year or so ago I told two of the people/channels I did consulting for that “One you hit 200k subs, you’ll be tops! You’ll have a permanent place on the top ten!” I also said that groups like smosh would eventually quit Youtube and go off to another site/tv, leaving the top spot for somebody else.
Boy was I wrong. But a year ago, who could have guessed what the most viewed would be today? If that person exists, they needed to be working for me, heh.
I’m glad I’m out of that, though. I have since moved to Japan so I can focus my knowledge on my own work. If things turn out right, I’m coming for ya, Nalts! Knowledge is power!
Haha. Right. I’m going to go play Japanese lotto…
and Reubnick reaches 500. HUZZAH!
14 more videos to make before I can move on to greener pastures. Huzzah!
anal retentive wikis. crips you’d think people would have something better to do when not getting paid.
I unsubscribed from Fred
I never subscribed to Fred.
Know thy enemy. Even if I have to stay subscribed…
OMG! 90k more subscribers got suckered into your craziness?! Poor souls. I remember congratulating you when you got like 18k or something…haha, seems silly now.
You ARE a pretty BIG deal on Youtube! :o)
Congrats homeboy!
@4
I’ve always been amazed at how much effort people will put into working for free.
I, for one, do not congratulate you on reaching 100K subs. By the time I get to your newest video it’s already got 14K views and 500 comments. Kills my comment mojo because I’m not gonna read 500 comments and I’m not gonna comment if you’re not gonna get around to reading it.
@10
Try watching my stuff, sukatra. I respond to each and every one of my video comments.
@7 unless he gets a TV Show I think Fred is pretty much done
@11 can’t watch your videos anymore too damn depressing, especially in this economy
^ Jeeze, jischinger, I haven’t even posted the depressing stuff yet. I was saving them for my last 5 videos (videos # 996-1000). They’ll be 30 minutes long each.
Here’s a video response to one of my recent videos where the guy doesn’t find my videos depressing at all:

^He’s talking about my sister Beth and me (The White Rhino) and our production company.
Remember the game “which one is not like the other”?
One says ‘Subscribers’ the other the number of ‘Views’.
Right?
