I've been on YouTube for over 9 years and recently joined skillshare to launch some of my courses. On YouTube you get paid per click, on skillshare you get paid per minute watched. So what has been of more benefit financially?
| Month | YouTube | skillshare |
|---|---|---|
| October Minutes Watched | 2.890.000 | 19.875 |
| October Money Earned | $1450 | $987 |
| $ per 1000 minutes | $0,5 | $49,66 |
It is fair to say that I earn almost exactly 100x more per minute watched on Skillshare then on YouTube.
Conclusion
There are a few things to keep in mind:
- It is was easier to get followers on YouTube, as well as minutes than on skillshare
- YouTube is a free platform for users, skillshare is paid
Therefore I have to conclude that yes, the profits on skillshare are way higher, but without proper promotion it will also be very hard to make any real cash here if you do not have a following or are willing to invest in online marketing.
Let me know which platform you like to use!
ow, and of course, I want to offer you 2 months free access to skillshare as well via my dedicated link, you will get access to over 24.000 courses, and help me reach more people = win win!
