What's new on the Panoramic Travels channel?

Hi, Steve here. Happy New Year - and thank you for joining me on the Panoramic Travels YouTube channel. This channel has been one of my retirement hobbies. Two-and-a-half years in, here are a few stats.

I’ve published over fifty videos, spent over 1,200 hours editing video and have received zero dollars. That’s been my commitment to you, the Panoramic Travels viewer.

YOU have provided ME with over 100,000 views, 13,000 hours of viewing time, 2,300 likes and 500 comments.

Now the Panoramic Travels channel has achieved a major milestone: 1,000 subscribers. Whether you’re subscribing for RV videos, cruise videos, independent travel videos or a combination, I thank you.

Now, that the channel has 1,000 subscribers, YouTube is sharing ad revenue with me. In the six weeks that I’ve had 1,000 subscribers that has totaled almost $100. So, maybe that’s going to amount to around $1,000 a year. It’s too soon to tell. Obviously, I’m not doing this for the money, but it is appreciated, helps pay for better equipment over time and motivates me to keep producing more content.

So, I’ll be publishing more travel videos in 2025 … RV road trips, RV modifications, independent travel to Iceland and a Viking Magnificent Mekong cruise to Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand.

So, how can you support the channel?

First of all, please subscribe. I know around 80 to 90% of the people watching this video right now are NOT subscribed! Or, if you’re already subscribed ask your friends and family to subscribe. Help the channel get to 2,000 subscribers! And, any interaction helps feed the YouTube algorithm. That includes watching - particularly watching videos to the end - liking and commenting on the videos. So far, I think I’ve replied to all the comments you have left on the channel.

So, that’s my update, as always, thank you for watching and I’ll be putting out a new RV video soon!
