Shooting brands join Cornish red squirrel project
Now an anti-gun channel?
R
eports are coming in from America that YouTube has started to demonetise gun videos. The move means that while gun and gun related videos can be aired on the popular format, they cannot carry paid adverts. YouTube is the second most popular website in the world. Removing ad revenue from vBloggers will cut revenue streams for the makers and could lead to some popular channels disappearing. T&G will report further on this subject next month.
Have you had problems promoting your shooting products? If so T&G needs to hear from you. Please drop us a line at:
