In this video, I discuss 6 real ways YouTubers make money on YouTube. I myself, as a full-time content creator and YouTuber, have earned money with each one of these tactics and methods. Several of them actually carry over to other social media platforms, not just YouTube.
Here is a brief breakdown of what I will be talking about:
- YouTube Ad Revenue from Monetization
- Brand Deals which equal big money!
- Affiliate marketing
- Selling your own products and services, merchandise, coaching, templates, etc.
- Community income streams like super thanks, channel memberships, and live stream donations
- Using YouTube to drive traffic to a landing page, like a product website or other website
Making money on YouTube is a great way to earn a living. It isn't easy, but it is worth it, and a few of these methods can be started at day one. You don't need to be a big channel; small channels and beginners can get in on the action, too.
