How to earn money from YouTube.com
you've possibly wondered at some point,how much money do these.YouTubers actually make?
Is it related to how many
views, or how many subscribers,
or all these different factors?
So, in this episode of Oversharing,
I'm gonna break down
exactly how much money
I make from YouTube,
and I'll be explaining how
this whole thing works.
So, that if you wanna
get into it, you can.
Or, if you're just really curious,
you can indulge your curiosity.
We'll start by talking about the logistics
of how people actually
earn money on YouTube
and how it works.
And then, we'll talk about
the three main factors
that affect how much an
individual earns on YouTube.
And then, we'll go under the hood
and I'll be exposing all of my analytics
for the last three years,
so you can see how much
money I really make.
So, to start making money on YouTube,
you first have to join the
YouTube Partners Programme,
which means these days,
you need to have at least
a thousand subscribers
and 4,000 hours of total
watch time on YouTube.
So, you can't start monetizing
the instant you turn on your channel.
Once you've hit those landmarks,
then you can apply for the programme,
and if you're approved for it,
you can then turn on ads on your videos.
This is optional, but
when you turn on ads,
and people would probably
usually see a five-second ad
before the video,
and might see some mid-roll
ads during the video,
and possibly a five-second
ad after the video.
And the idea is that
YouTube sells these ad slots
to advertisers through
their Google Ads programme.
So, advertisers can then
pay to show their ads
on different types of content,
and they might wanna do it
based on a whole lot of different factors.
Now, the problem is that when
you are very small on YouTube,
you actually aren't really
earning very much money at all,
and I recognised this.
So, for me, when I started my
YouTube channel in June 2017,
I made 77 videos before
I turned on monetization.
I think I turned on monetization
roundabout April 2018,
because to my mind,
making five or $10 a month from YouTube
was just not worth the
annoyance for the audience
in watching the ads.
But, if that number was
gonna be $500 a month,
at that point, it would be
