I'm a bit surprised

Post by Gen3AntiqueAuto » Fri Aug 04, 2023 3:12 pm

As you all know - I make Model T videos and upload them to youtube. A few weeks ago my stats put the bulk of my audience at "male, usa, 50+". I checked again today. 75% male, 51.7% age 18-35, USA. Are young people interested in the hobby again?

How many viewers do you have? Stats fluctuate more with lower samples. A hand full of youngsters could tip the percentage. But to answer your question, yes, I think there are more young people discovering the Model T.

>4000 subs, 560 views on the "never ran right" video in the last 28 days. Not a lot (not enough) but it is strange that the majority of the views came from "kids".

IF I ever get REAL views (100's of thousands per video) I will start giving away Model T parts. That was the goal from the get go - have youtube pay for the parts and get them into the hands of people that will use them.
