Support Season 2 of BritHikesOntario | BritHikesOntario

Right now, there is no second series of BritHikesOntario

Short answer: It’s a ton of work and costs too much to make. It is not sustainable.

YouTube has pulled the rug out from under small video creators like me. To be paid anything at all, I need 1,000 subscribers.
It takes about 2 weeks minimum to plan, film, and produce each episode.
That means Season One took 12 weeks of work.
In one year, I have only gained 50 subscribers.
That means it would take 240 more weeks of working for nothing before YouTube ever contributed.

Not entirely! I like making the videos, but here are some basic costs:

Website, Domain, Hosting – At least $75/yr
Transportation – Well Season One cost about $30 and I only left Toronto once. It just depends where I go, but we’re talking at least $100, right?
Marketing – I occasionally pay for marketing, but have only been able to afford about $15 so far, which has mostly gone on my Facebook page.
Other – There are various bits of technology, not necessarily expensive, that could help improve the videos. Eg. a clip-on mic for only around $30.

I believe the bare minimum cost of a second season is $300.

If you can support me, the best way to do so RIGHT NOW is by donating via one of these three methods:
