If it's for share numbers, YouTube is okay, but as far as the money goes, YouTube is really erratic and I think you should promote steemit more. Hopefully you'll get the best of both @tangerinetravels. Good luck

We're actually not trying to build our YouTube channel for the small amount of ad revenue that may come from it. We're trying to build our following there for a few other reasons:

• It will allow us to get sponsorships
• Possible Patreon opportunities
• Affiliate marketing options
• Once we get big enough, we should have opportunities to get paid to do fun activities that we'd otherwise have to pay for.
• YouTube is the 2nd most popular search engine in the world. It gives us a ton of new exposure and it will allow us to promote Steem/it to a much larger audience.

More than anything though, it helps to build our brand and diversify our income streams.

I thought as much, especially with the need to build the brand. Best of luck guys. Keep on rocking
