How much I earn on YouTube at 4K SUBS! My YouTube revenue Sept 2021

This is how much money YouTube pays me at 4000 subscribers this month!

I go through all my tabs on the YouTube Studio app: including Reach, Audience, CTR (Click through Rate) and my RPM (revenue per thousand - how many dollars per 1000 views)

I also take a peek at my views and subscribers on my other channels:

How much I earn at 4K SUBS! My YouTube revenue Sept 2021



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

hello welcome back to the happy hut 

I’ve come outside because the weather's not terrible for a moment 

but I’m going to show you everything that I earn on this YouTube channel 

I’m going to have all the stats on screen here 

we're going to be going through my click-through rate, my RPM - that's how much YouTube pay me per 1000 views I’m going to show you which videos are doing well 

and I’m also going to take a peek at my three new YouTube channels which might be a terrible idea um so I’m not sure if I’ll even leave this bit of the intro in the video 

but I’ve also got some stats to see how close I am to not getting 1000 subscribers or 4000 hours of watch time on those to get monetized 

but anyway this channel is monetized and it's the place where I try to help high achieving creators and performers just like you - high five - to get ideas out of your head and out onto here on YouTube to make the world happy 

but this video is about making the world money 

so this feels slightly vulnerable to... to show you everything on my mobile device I mean I’m in the UK so we call it a mobile 

“mobile!” 

but here's the app right here on the screen 

as you can see I have 4174 subscribers thank you to each and every one of you hint 

you also get an overview of how the channel's doing and as you can see on my analytics, my watch time is down to 600 hours roughly - 21000 views 

subscribers by 135 so far in the last 28 days and I’m doing about $100 a month 

and this is why this is why I haven't done this video for a while 

I was making these videos where I go through how much I earn every single month but as you can see on screen right here my revenue has taken a complete dive 

and there's a reason for that 

if you're regular on the channel you'll know that I removed half of my videos 

guess what! 

it removed about half of my revenue but some of my best earners weren't niche 

I wanted to niche this channel to help high achieving creators and performers just like you - high five - so I took away all my gardening videos and all of my UK specific things 

they've gone to another channel and I might go through that channel in a moment 

that's my latest video which is doing very well on the average few duration 

if you scroll down on the app it shows you the last three videos and some comments 

but there's some very kind comments there that could have been a lot worse couldn't it 

let me dive into analytics 

I’m going to click on “view more” 

in the last 48 hours - this is pretty regular I get about 1500 views and these are my top videos 

you can see my top video is how to link your YouTube channel to other channels 

but I’ll skip back and just go into more detail on some of the other channel level statistics 

so I’m getting about 600 hours a month if I open up the timescale to the last 90 days it's pretty much the same 

and if I open that up to the year you can see that big drop 

that big drop there ding! 

is where I unlisted and moved all of my videos that are not about making YouTube videos 

I’ve moved them onto another channel the links are in the description if you want to take a look at them but you can see the effect on my watch time it's pretty much halved my watch time 

and if I pull up the lifetime statistics for my channel well it doesn't even make sense does it because I’ve been running this channel since about 2009 

so if I scroll over and just look at the last few years - so just when I was monetized you can see I had a crazy spike in March 2020 

let's open it up I’m just pinching the app graph with my fingers 

so you can see that really strange peak which was for a video that's not very niche and then a trough and then the channel started doing very well assuming... 

wow we've got some military helicopters going over now it's because I’m sharing the good stuff with you! 

it's time for a drink 

Oh dear it's the local air ambulance that kind of puts things in perspective 

if you think your channel is doing bad well just cheer yourself up with the thought that you're not using an air ambulance today I guess 

There was a time when I was getting 10 subscribers a day that's probably nearer five subscribers and it's been like that for this year 

if I put in the last 365 days that's what I’m doing on the subscribers 

what do you think are your statistics like this 

leave a comment I’d love to hear how your channel is doing 

now my estimated revenue which unfortunately is pretty accurate 

I’m getting about 100 dollars a month and again that is since I removed the videos 

if I pinch to open up you can see I was doing about twelve dollars - eight to twelve dollars a day 

now that's just tanked to something really low that spike there is from a very kind friend dropping 20 dollars into a super chat and it really stands out but this is pretty much how much revenue I get a day 

so in the last year I’m really grateful for this - I’ve pulled in $2000 

I’m hoping that the revenue will go up in the run up to Christmas so I’m in September 2021 at the moment I’m really hoping that we might be doing more than we - I might be doing more than $100 a month 

so the last 28 days the the nice little pictures have gone but you can see the titles so my top video is about featured channels 

that's how to add other channels to your channel so you get a little list of channels on your featured channels tab 

if I go into the analytics for the video you can see that the average view duration for my top video on my channel right now is one minute and eight seconds that's... 

that's not quite so helpful I wish it were longer but the views are insane 

It has clocked up 20000 views in what, two thirds of the year?

so that's good I’ll click on go to video analytics using the app we can deep dive into how this video is performing 

so I get about 90 watch hours 

pulls in 44 subscribers a month that's good 

can you see along the top of the page there on my app it says overview 

so I’ll scroll across to reach 

and wow the click-through rate on this video is 16% which is really good 

I think my channel average is about 8% 

now this is the percentage of viewers who click on this video based on being served a thumbnail 

so the thumbnail and the title clearly doing doing the business and most of my traffic is coming from YouTube search 88% 

and I’ll scroll down even further to those external sources so 60% comes from google search and you can also see your top YouTube search terms 

these are the search terms uh leading to people coming to my channel 

but the percentages are quite low 

the highest percentage is how to add channels to our YouTube channel 

this is new on the app on the YouTube studio app 

I can also see the top videos which have suggested viewers to come to my video and if I click on this - I don't understand why it lists THIS video as the top source suggesting this video 

I’m guessing maybe this indicates how many people come directly to this video 

the next best referrer is this one here how to add feature channels this is a tutorial - this is someone else's tutorial video 

two percent have come from one of MY videos about changing your YouTube name 

and it actually refers me to that video which is useful 

piggy meme review has brought two percent of my videos suggesting this! 

should we have a look? 

okay this meme here yeah your piggy 

uh okay now I’ve already seen that I have no I have no idea why so it's interesting 

I’m not sure it's actually that useful it's helpful to see where your viewers are coming from but I’m not sure that enables me to do anything with that information 

if you disagree please leave me a comment I might be missing something there 

audience retention that nose dive there can you see that big dip in the graph 

that is because that's the part of the video I’ve basically told the viewer what they've come to hear 

and it's doing 96.7% likes that's nice 

the audience for this video happens to be 82% male and weirdly 100% between that age bracket I... I don't want to question YouTube statistics but that seems very strange and not very likely 

the top geography is the united states which is good because united states viewers pay the most as you might already know if you're monetized 

let's go to the revenue 

this is what you want to see isn't it 

for that one video I’m getting about $18 a month 

the rpm - this is how much YouTube pays me per 1000 views for this one video so it pays me about four dollars per 1000 views 

it's a short video 

I find if my videos are longer than eight minutes the revenue per 1000 views is so much higher 

let's compare this now to how my overall channel is doing 

so back onto my channel analytics 

we still have the tabs along the top, so I’m going to scroll over to reach 

reach shows you where your viewers come from 

so impressions is how many thumbnails are served basically 

and if I compare that for the year my impressions have halved as a result of removing half of my videos 

my click-through rate (CTR) as you might already know the click-through rate is what percentage of your viewers are clicking on your thumbnails 

but my click-through rate if anything has gone up in the last year not by a lot but you can see it was dithering at around six percent and now it's dithering at between six and nine percent 

so that's a good sign for me I think that tells me that it was a good thing to niche my channel 

my click-through rate has gone up 

not that I’m seeing that in in money terms yet but... 

but I’m glad the ctr has gone up there 

overall for my channel I get about 50% of my views come from YouTube search and about 30% come from external 

I have been putting my videos onto my blog which I think is a really good idea I think that's really worked well for me 

I think it helps with with google search and I think it helps refer viewers to me from the blog 

I also tweet out my videos 

I put them on Facebook and LinkedIn as well but I think if anything that might be harming my views 

I think they click through the video through curiosity so they're not actually there to watch the whole video 

they just want to see it because they've seen it on their feed 

so for me putting videos out on social media I don't think works very well 

the top video suggesting my content?

you can see now what other videos on YouTube are referring viewers to your channel 

but I’m not sure there's anything that I can do about affecting this 

so I’m not sure how useful it is 

let's go over to engagement 

no let's not go over to engagement 

you want to see the money don't you 

show me the money! 

so for my channel revenue I’m getting $101 for the last 28 days 

if I compare that with the last 90 days pretty much the same 

last year it's tanked it is really tanked since I removed those videos 

let's go back 

I don't want to look at this anymore 

my rpm that has stayed at channel level - that's stayed pretty much the same for the year so around the six dollar level 

overall my lifetime rpm is $2.55 

but I think that includes the time from when I was monetized before and YouTube removed monetization from anyone who had under a thousand subscribers 

but if it... if it is of use or interest you can see how my rpm has fluctuated 

and you can see that really nice hump from September to Christmas last year 

the rpm does go up from six dollars the around nine or ten dollars 

I’m really hoping that that will happen again this year 

fingers crossed 

what's your rpm? 

let me know in the comments below 

I’d love to know how my rpm compares with everyone else's obviously 

that's probably why you're watching this video 

these are my top earning videos 

it's not a very pretty screen but the featured channels is pulling in $18 

there's a huge drop to the next level of videos 

I’ve got a tutorial on how to fast-forward and rewind videos on YouTube that's five dollars a month 

oh this video I made years ago when my kids were really young and drawing all over the car - that video is still pulling in three dollars a month which I’m delighted by that's amazing that something I made about six years ago is now bringing in three dollars a month! 

it's wonderful isn't it YouTube? 

my brain at the moment as a YouTube creator is to just keep making videos because the more videos I put out then the more videos I’ve got out there pulling in one or two dollars a year 

obviously it's not enough to live on but in my brain I’m still thinking off I could just make two videos a week then I’ll always be increasing my revenue by one or two dollars a month for each video! 

so say I made 10 videos I mean that could be 10 or 20 dollars a month that my income increases 

and then of course I hit I hit a wall and then I see the futility of it just think what's the point because you know you can't live on a hundred dollars per month in a in a western economy 

I don't know where in the world you're watching you might be watching on another continent and this might actually look like a lot of money to you 

and if it is good luck - let me know in the comments 

I’m going to keep going because I’m learning so much from these experiments here on YouTube 

I’ve spread out my experiment now so what I’m doing now is making three other channels 

I wonder if I can pull them up here 

now some of these channels are dead some of them are very active 

so I’ve got a travel channel Neil’s trains and stops that's at 93 subscribers 

I’ve got my dad delivers vlog which I think is my favourite channel at the moment 

that's on 400 subscribers 

and my ikea dad channel is on nearly 180 subscribers 

so Dad delivers is where it's at and I think I’ve stopped making videos so frequently on this channel to try and get some more videos on that channel 

should we go in oh I’m just gonna make this video long 

there's a little sneak peek on how I’m doing on dad delivers I’m going to make a whole video about this I think and I’m going to show you how many views I’m getting on this other channel 

it's almost the same amount of views and watch time I’m getting on this channel but obviously it's not monetized yet 

if I could get this other channel monetized that could double my revenue to 200 dollars a month which would be great 

it's taking so long 

the number of subscribers 

I only get about one and a half subscribers a day on that channel so it would take me another two years to hit a thousand subscribers 

I’ve hit the 4000 hours watch time because the videos are good 

I know they're good because they worked on my other channel before I removed them 

let's dive in here yeah I’m getting like 600 hours a month and on my lifetime for this channel I’ve hit the 4000 hours easily 

it's just the subscribers and the problem with that channel is that the... the videos do really well on search there are lots of how to's you know how to change a line on a strimmer, which they do really well on search and people watch them and think thank you very much that's ALL I needed to know and move on 

it's not so good for gaining subscribers 

so I think my plan with that channel is to make it a bit more personal 

try and make videos that people would might want to come back to 

I’ll cover all of that on the other video and I’ll put that video on screen now and in the description 

but if you have any questions leave them in the comments below 

I hope this video helps and right here is what YouTube thinks you'd love to watch next 

good luck with your channel let me know how your channel is doing I’d love to know!

My morning routine + journey into work, back home in Camden Town London

All about me, and getting these by email.

My morning routine + journey into work, back home in Camden Town London

Taking you on my journey into work... you lucky thing... to Camden Town, London... then back home again. During The Rona.

That's all there is to this video. 

Via South Western Railway and the Northern Line tube.

My morning routine + journey into work, back home in Camden Town London



TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

good morning this is how my day starts at the moment 

it's 7:30 and my train is due in at about 7:45 

I’m not going in every day and the way our trains work in our country means that means I’ve got to get a small mortgage out to pay for the single ticket 

it's about £30 into London and then I’ll get a reduced rail card fare for the way home 

I must remember to get that ticket!

Made it onto the platform - time to get the train hello I’m Neil...

[TANNOY ANNOUNCEMENT] Guildford for the AirBus

Hello I’m Neil, welcome back to the channel if you're new here especially big welcome 

today is a bit of an unusual video usually I help high achieving creators and performers just like you to get ideas out here onto YouTube but I haven't been posting very much for the last few weeks and I wanted to make a video about why why that is 

I thought I’d do that by making a video about my daily routine at the moment 

I’m... I’m doing some work in London so I thought I’d take you along with me for that journey the first thing I’ve got to do is to get into London 

so it's 7:45, the train's on time it's always a good thing 

I like to go on the back carriage because it's usually quiet but I don't if you can see the whole train is quiet anyway! 

you use my knuckles obviously

The government advice at the moment is to work from home for the next two weeks at least uh till the 19th of July so we've got a really nice nice clean quiet train

[MUSIC]

I do my morning pages every single day for half an hour and there's no getting out of it even though I’m on the train 

except thanks to the face mask when my glasses steam up! 

[MUSIC]

[TANNOY: See it, say it, sorted]

I still can't believe how empty these platforms are these are really major stations and usually before the Rona, these platforms would be absolutely heaving with passengers

[MUSIC]

After the writing, I’ve been reading typing and tearing out 13 pages which is pretty good for this session but I’ve got to go through all of these pages at some stage

[MUSIC]

As we head into London I’m walking to the front of the train to get there just that little bit quicker 

I guess it's my morning exercise and the trains being held at some signals on the way into Waterloo station

[MUSIC]

[TANNOY: Platform 15 on the left hand side]

Finally we get into the London Waterloo a little late some things never change and you can see that in my eyes just how happy and grateful I look for this service 

so it's 8:57 made it to Waterloo 

time to go on the tube now over to Camden Town

[MUSIC]

[TANNOY ANNOUNCEMENT]

I’m going to mention this a few times now so sorry about this 

but when I was a school kid and 11 years old I used to make this same tube journey every day until I was 16... except in the opposite direction

[MUSIC]

And it's still really weird being back at Camden Town station 

I remember bounding down the escalators three stairs at a time to check the dot matrix indicator at the bottom there 

[MUSIC]

I’m still not used to it 

This is Camden Town and this is where I grew up 

just so happens I’m working here for the first time in the place where I grew up and I used to do that journey every morning but the other way around 

still not used to being here um it's been about 20 years since I’ve been here properly 

and I’m still not used to it being so quiet as well look at it 

I think it... I think it gets a bit busier later on but even so this I’ve never seen it like this at all 

down here is... to flip the camera... that's my old infant school I made a whole video about this I put it on screen now and in the description 

but oh my goodness it is so weird walking past my old little infant school every morning to work 

let's go down and have a look because I made that video about what's happening to it about two years ago and... get run over 

what's happening is they're knocking it down for the Camden town underground station so it will not look like this for much longer 

I think it's probably going to take a couple of years to build a new underground entrance and they're going to bulldoze this little Victorian infant school that taught me all my nursery rhymes... taught me the colours 

the reason I can do this now right now is because of that building and all my lovely teachers in it 

Hawley infants it's moved - it's closed down they're not going to bulldoze the school with the kids still in it that that would be wrong 

but it's been derelict now for about oh two three years anyway that that video is a nice video if you if you've got some time on your hands 

then I cross the bridge over there to get to the building I work in which is just opposite Camden lock market 

obviously I don't think my employers would be that happy about me filming in the office so I’ll give you some shots from the window and some uh pictures that I took from the roof 

the upside with filming here is that a lot of people get their camera out so I don't I feel like I’m blending in by filming this for you 

hello it's now about lunch time and I need to go back to do my calls to the... the united states the... the America so a bit of a rush because I’m trying to get the 1:30. It's one o'clock now let's see if I can get from Camden to Waterloo in under 30 minutes 

I don't think I’m gonna make it 

let's see if I can do this

[MUSIC]

I love it - I’m against the clock and this tube train could not go any slower if it tried 

this isn't my train!

[MUSIC]

so I’m down... I think this is the first train to Charing Cross

[MUSIC]

I know that I am in a rush because that is why the trains are running so slowly

[MUSIC]

yeah that's that's not my train

turns out this this footage right here isn't slowed down!

[MUSIC]

okay out of the tube station - now over to a ticket machine to get my network railcard ticket

[MUSIC]

okay we are on platform 14 which is just over here

[MUSIC]

wow you're bringing me luck because I have never been able to do that journey in under 25 minutes! 

I’ve managed to get here for 1:25 ready for the 1:30 so we're good 

we're good thank you London Underground - Northern Line you rock!

[MUSIC]

[MUSIC]

[MUSIC]

and we're home so that was quick

everything ran to time 

it's not always like that even in these uh difficult times but uh yeah I’m very grateful to the train actually making it back bang on the dot 

Can you please help my daddy get 10000 subscribers, just click on his face thanks bye! Alright this is going to be the proper one right

TRANSCRIPT: (CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE)

THIS IS THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK PLAY ON THE VIDEO ABOVE!

you could... you could have a Pharrell size hat on top of these 

hello welcome back to the happy hut I’m Neil and I’m sorry for the background noise right now 

we're in a really heavy thunderstorm here over the happy hut uh we're... I’ve had to come in from outside I was going to do this in the garden 

but today I am unboxing this 

it's an unboxing and first impressions review of the Audio Technica ATH M 40 X professional monitor headphones 

let me show you the other side of the box while I tell you why I’m unboxing this 

my work has issued these to me which is great because I do a lot of audio work at work but usually I use these my urbanears plattan 2 gorgeous headphones 

I love the bass response on these and they are so comfortable and I’ve got all my urbanears Plattan 2 videos in the description but this is quite a big upgrade and I got giddy with excitement when I got this in my hands 

the first thing I wanted to do was to make an unboxing and first impressions video for you but the second reason is that Phineas Eilish, Billie Eilish's producer brother - he made a video for a GQ on the 10 things he can't live without 

and I think it was around number five were these amazing headphones that he really raved about 

turns out those headphones are the Audio Technica ATH M40X 

I’ve got a camera up above - hello - this is just going to be a really quick video just to show you what you get in the box 

I’ve wanted to open these for about three days 

oh nice and then in this triangular box there's some leads and things 

you get a really nice pouch case with Audio Technica embossed on it 

and it's like a drawstring pouch but look we'll come to all of this in a moment because you want to see these 

oh look at that 

oh oh there's more stuff under there! 

there's a bag for each ear cup 

now what I’m concerned about most is the weight and how these will feel when they are wearing it 

because these feel like nothing but obviously I don't think these will have the audio quality of these 

let me show you the cups and the stitching that's all nice isn't it 

and then as you can already see the cups are completely flexible 

you can turn them inside out swivel them up down 

the clicks you can hear the clicks as they click into place 

Oh gone too far around! I’ve broken them I’ve broken them already! 

Phineas I’ve broken your headphones! 

oh right so so basically they flip this way and that's why I can't turn them around 

it's like I’m using headphones for the first time isn't it 

there's a huge Audio Technica logo 

the finish as I’m sure you've seen on other reviews the... the materials are plastic it's plasticky 

the advantage of that is they are lighter than they would be with other materials to put them on wow and I... I can't hear anything in the room right now I can't hear the rain that's hammering down on the roof 

you can see it has ATHM40X embossed on the side but these extend let me pull them out the full way for you 

wow that's huge so you could probably get that on a very big bobble hat if you are DJing 

playing some form of guitar 

obviously they've got the mickey mouse kind of size there 

you could you could have a Pharrell size hat on top of these so I’ll push them back in because my head is big but not quite that big 

and it very firmly... I think you can only wear them one way round so this is the right and this is the left 

like that if I wear them the other way around like I do all the time with my urbanears it's the wrong way around as you can see 

so let's see what else is in the box because obviously they're not cordless so back in  the box underneath this cup here are lots and lots of leads 

right this looks like the 3.5mm jack obviously but if I hold it up to the camera where you can probably see that underneath the jack there... there is it's like a locking mechanism set into the plug there 

and there's a normal 3.5mm jack with a thread there for an adapter 

let's check out the other leads 

and this is the same kind of deal so that you have a 3.5mm jack to connect to the headphones with that locking mechanism on the jack plug there and then on the other side we have the quarter inch jack with... it looks gold plated... adapter so it goes to 3.5mm but the difference as you can see you don't need me to say this out loud but I will anyway it's a curly cord that expands 

so I think I’ll probably be using these because I’m always walking off and damaging equipment by not taking the headphones off 

so that'll be really useful for when I go a wandering 

I’m so excited about this 

on the left hand cup under here hold it up - that is the port for this 3.5mm jack and I’ve got to put it in and I’ve got to find the locking mechanism 

and then I can turn it and it clicks 

so I’ve turned it clockwise, it clicks into place and that's now fixed 

let me read out the packaging while I i show you the headphones from every angle possible 

40mm drivers with rare earth magnets and copper clad aluminium or aluminum wire voice coils 

90 degrees swivelling ear cups for easy one ear monitoring 

that's what the swivelling is for 

professional grade ear pad and headband material delivers more durability and comfort 

for professional studio tracking and mixing as well as DJ monitoring 

and what I love about these already I can see you can wipe the headband clean which I can't do with my other headphones it's not an unpleasant it's... 

it's leather-like but it's not pleather 

it doesn't feel too plasticky 

it does have a nice feel and there is a slight cushion underneath the headband there so there is some comfort padding under there somehow 

let me put them on 

I can't hear you I can't hear anything 

I mean look how do you review headphones on YouTube this is just first impressions but I’m going to listen to the music that I listen to all the time which is the grandstand theme 56 minute loop

I can't play too much of this music because I will get that copyright strike 

so the first thing I can say is that they are incredibly comfortable 

the ATH M40X they feel pretty good on first... first impressions 

the bass response is phenomenal 

I can really hear the bass and the timpani of the grandstand theme yet I mean obviously these are keepers 

I’m not sure what else I can tell you if you have any questions leave them in the comments 

so the first thing I can say is that the ATH M40X are incredibly comfortable 

the padding is just right 

my ears are completely enclosed and ah the sound I... I don't know how to describe this to you but to me the bass response is phenomenal 

I can really hear the low notes of the grandstand team there I better not play too much of it because I don't want to get a copyright strike 

it sounds really rich for obviously something you would expect of headphones of at this price range

Hello welcome back to the Happy Hut if you're new to the channel 

my name's Neil I’m a tightwad dad where we try to be happy with what we've already got and today I’m trying to be happy with this 

It's the amazon basics compact ergonomic wireless mouse with fast scrolling in black 

I went for the black colour it also comes in blue purple red and silver 

this is how it arrives too I’ll come closer to the camera 

this is how it arrives fresh from amazon let's unbox this baby 

now I don't really buy many mouses - is it mouse's or mice?

but it comes in a really nice little box and this is what it looks like 

I’ll show you what it looks like actually plugged into the computer in a moment 

and if you've not bought a wireless mouse before this is how it works 

basically a little dongle thing - this is the wireless thing that you plug into your computer as a USB receiver you put that into a USB port 

but it's a nice touch apart from the nice cardboard box and instruction manual is it looks like it comes with an amazon basics AA battery 

it doesn't feel that expensive but it doesn't feel that cheap either so that's good 

let's put the battery in and then to turn it on there is a on off switch on the bottom here 

ready to do some mouse action 

I’ll give you some more close-ups while we plug it into the pc 

okay so I’ve read a bit of the instructions there's already two clever things with this mouse 

the first is this hole here in the bottom is actually a storage compartment for the receiver because of the ridged edge of the receiver that's what keeps it in that hole there 

and the other clever thing is this button here looks like a fast forward button this is actually the thing that activates fast scrolling - whatever that is - when you're scrolling on the scroll wheel 

it's got a left button and a right button 

it's got a blinking LED to show that it's in action on the side here 

there's a forward button and a backward button that you can use with your thumb while you're holding the mouse 

I’ve come out of the sun and into the happy hut to plug this in 

it could not be easier just get your usb port and plug in the wireless receiver like this and instantly as soon as I start moving the mouse the mouse moves around the screen 

I don't know if I can get this on camera where is it there I don't think see this is the other youtube channel that I run 

I don't know if you can see the cursor is just flicking up and down 

wow this feels really good obviously you can go into your windows settings if it's moving a little fast for you which it actually is because the mouse I had before is tiny 

from I think that might have been from poundland - the dollar store here in the UK  

by the way there's a link to this mouse in the description if this is the wireless mouse that you're after 

okay so just figured out what the default forward and backward buttons do on the mouse it actually takes your browser forward and backwards 

so using these forward and backward buttons on the side here is exactly the same as hitting forward and backward on the browser 

I’m finding it really smooth on screen and in my hand it's just really comfortable 

I mean it's going to be really comfortable after I’ve spent so long on a tiny mouse 

the way that you can grip it just feels so much more comfortable it feels like I’ve got more control 

but big question will it work on my MacBook pro 

let's give it a go and I’ll put the USB receiver into the side of my MacBook pro 

whoa yeah it's working instantly 

it is working really smoothly not that I thought that it wouldn't let's see if I could do some video editing with it

and this is working just as well with my mac as it was with my pc my windows pc 

so if it's not clear enough already the amazon's basics wireless mouse ergonomic mouse is an absolute hit 

I’m going to... it's a keeper I’m going to keep this 

if this video is helping why not hit the thumbs up button that will really help someone else to find this video and if you're feeling even kinder why not hit the subscribe button you don't have to watch any of my videos ever again but I’m trying to get to 1000 subscribers to get the money - the coin - from YouTube at no extra cost to use so if you're feeling awesome thanks so much for hitting that button and good luck with your amazon basics wireless mouse
