They posted these videos on YouTube as well as their own website. The success of their careers on the platform started with Hank’s video “Accio Deathly Hollows” which was featured on the front page. They also used the fame of their show to promote charity work through Project for Awesome.
Following the project’s conclusion in December 2007, they started a website called Nerdfighters where they decided to continue their vlogging. The website has since been used by community volunteers to update the fans about their projects as well as charities worth supporting.
