It is a violation of the YouTube partner agreement to encourage our viewers to interact with advertising, i.e. that would be cheating. We do make more money when someone does not skip the ad. We make the most money when someone clicks on the ad. However, a single person interacting with ads is really just pennies and if someone interacts with them too much, it looks like we are cheating and we can get in trouble.
The best way to support us is through patreon and just ignore the advertising.
The second best way is to sign up for YouTube Red, which removes all advertising from the YouTube videos you watch and pays us about 10 times more per views. A normal views is worth about .01 cents and a YouTube red view is worth is .1 cents.
So even giving us just $1.00 a month is worth 1000 normal views or 100 YouTube Red views.

So would it help if we sat thru the ad instead of skipping them or do we need to click on them
