Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

That's what I thought. But then I didn't know why they would have them out if not going to follow up on it.

His dad thought super soil would be great stuff too.

While I was waiting at some godly hour for a cow to calf I clicked on Tom pembertons latest video title his leaving us, with his dad as the headline. Turns out his going for a back operation, not after buying a home out in sunny Spain and after retiring. Exactly the kind of bs video title that get’s on my nerve.

Blame YouTube they're the ones that promote videos with those kinds of titles and bury those without.

It is one reason why a couple of lawyer either pull faces or use images of subjects sometimes only tangentially connected but cause people to click just because of the celebrity. It drives them nuts but since doing so the subscription numbers have shot up along with the views and time watched.

Basically the reason I don't watch Toms videos any more, the titles are all misleading, click-bait.
I respect the work he's put in and the stage his farm is at now compared to when he started his Youtube channel, however when every video is titled " Biggest disaster ever " or " " I've broken everything " etc, with the 'O.T.T facial expression , it gets a bit irritating!
One thing I'll give him credit for is he's not repetative, like posting daily straw blower videos. or " Here’s the yard, thats my cattle trailer, over there is the muck grab, and there's the silage bales I'm showing you for the 100th time this winter " etc.

Of the more established channels that I've watched for years, I'm going to watch them anyway so don't pay attention to the clickbait titles & thumbnails and just accept them for what they are. I seem to do well to avoid clicking on the clickbaity thumbnails of channels I don't subscribe to - some of Jemma Warren's keep popping up for example, never watched a single one as trucking isn't for me.

The viewing figures show that clickbait works, they'd be stupid not to do it, this is part of their income.
 
Let me see how smug I can look as I point in different directions 🤣
I hope he never stops posting,the entertainment he brings my day is unreal 🤣
He’s genuine gold. It’s not the fact he talks complete f**king nonsense, it’s how cocky and full of himself he is that makes it that much more entertaining. I’ve said it before, but he’s the agricultural David Brent, from ‘the office’ 😂
Think it’s obvious from his recent video that daddy told him ‘No’ about swapping the 155R for a 7530 after doing a full video about how much better a 7530 would be.
