How to make money on Youtube

[Brother]

One of the most relevant and interesting ways to make money on the Internet is to create your own Youtube channel. In this article, we will look at the technical steps that must be passed in this case, as well as ways to generate income after a while.

First of all, we note one important point - Youtube is fundamentally different from other social networks (in SMM it is classified as a social network). You need to be able to work with video - to be a little screenwriter, cameraman, sound engineer and video editor. Without a delivered speech and the ability to behave in front of the camera (if the format provides it), it is also unlikely that something will work out. There are exceptions, but there are not so many chances to "shoot" in the era of rampant YouTube blogging.

Treat your Youtube channel as a hobby. It should bring you joy from the first video. There are channels that are completely commercialized, but they almost always lose to those that are created for the viewer. Also remember that channel development is a long process. You may need to shoot or make dozens of videos to start getting your first money.

Prepare yourself​

Develop an entry strategy. Think over the scripts for the first videos. Ask questions whether they will be in demand, what interests your potential target audience, what is good and what competitors are doing badly. Invest in quality when creating videos.

Create a channel​

First of all, decide what the theme will be. Remember that if at first you have a clear idea of the subject matter of the materials, then later you may want to expand it. Think it over, don't choose too narrow a name. Place the correct tags by which your channel can be found in the search.

Add content​

Many novice bloggers are in a hurry with the desire to earn money, while there is practically no content on the channel. But advertisers will not work with an almost empty channel, without subscribers and views. Try to add videos as often as possible in the beginning. Their duration can be different, but the most convenient for viewing are those whose duration is from 5 to 20 minutes. However, some videos can be made 30-40 minutes long, the variety is also attractive, it all depends on the format. It is also important to add the correct tags to every video.

Look for your audience​

Subscriber promotion does not work, and the point is in it, if on a channel with 1 million subscribers, videos are watched 1,000 times. Try to attract people who are genuinely interested in your channel. Make videos on relevant topics, collect keywords for its topic and use them in the title, description, tags, but make the text readable. Seed videos in thematic communities in social networks, leave them in the comments, but not as spam, but as a relevant answer.

Connecting direct Google Adsense affiliate program​

The payout threshold is $ 100. As long as you reach that amount, withdrawals will be limited. It should be said that Youtube itself takes about 45% of all your income, 55% goes to you.

If you decide to choose this affiliate program, then go to the channel settings and enable monetization. Then, in the same settings, link your channel to AdSense, following the instructions. Before connecting, read thematic materials on the topic on the Web, especially with regard to possible blockages.

Affiliate program from the media network​

Media networks are less biased in monitoring channel behavior, so the risk of blocking is lower (although AdSense shouldn't have any problems with adherence to the rules).

We will not recommend a specific media network, just list the popular ones:

• Agency of Internet Rights
• Quiz Group
• BOS
• ATG Media
• Xmedia

All media networks have their own requirements for connected channels, commissions, withdrawal methods, feedback, a library of free music and much more. Analyze their activities and conditions, choose what is right for you. Some networks even help with the development and design of the channel.

The threshold for entering monetization based on the number of subscribers is very important. Some media networks are ready to collaborate when you have from 1000 to 3000 subscribers, which is very good.

The advertisement you speak​

You can negotiate with advertisers that during your video you will speak the advertisement. This is effective because many people have automatic ad blocking (or simply click on "Skip ads"), while spoken ads cannot be turned off. Here, too, you should act wisely and not abuse the trust of your viewers.

Advertising video​

This may be a review of a gadget that you offer to purchase for your viewers. A link is placed in the description, each transition from the channel to the site will be recorded and in the case of purchasing a product, you will receive a percentage (in fact, an affiliate program). There is another format - popular channels often do not agree to work under such conditions; you pay for the very placement of the video on the channel.

In conclusion, we will repeat ourselves. Before monetization, the main issue should be filling the channel with relevant and high-quality content, as well as its promotion. After a while, advertisers can contact you and offer their services. So, first of all, focus on what you can offer your viewers, and only then start thinking about how to get income from it. We wish you good luck!
