You make content to generate views and ad revenue which are pennies. Then you get sponsors for product placement and later you get patreons to fund the real chedda. Some content providers will link sponsored products and get a few sheckles for each sale.
People make millions on YouTube. I personally know a chick that makes about $30k a year just making TikTok vids.

I didn’t say you couldn’t just simply the method on how most of the successful ones that do are making money. The primary source isn’t from views and as revenue anymore as YouTube has nerfd and demonitized that stream.

Word on the street is you get one penny for every one thousand views.
It's a 5 year old post guys, let the poor bastard die and start a new thread lol.

You do it.
I don't want to start a Youtube channel, but the income from it is highly dependent on how many ads you're allowed to have which changes drastically over time and whether your content is advertiser friendly or designed for children. Brands love getting their shit displayed to children who are left alone with an ipad, they pay top dollar for that content. It's anywhere from like $0.69 for 1k views to $1.50 for 1k views. Kids also don't skip ads so it can be even more. Case in point, if you want to make money on Youtube take notes from Cocomelon, not Pewdiepie. Most big creators use paid sponsorships at this point because their income is so unreliable otherwise if they get demonetized.

Before Youtube got stingy I would get checks all the time from Google for ads I placed on my videos that were just for my own memories and enjoyment of previous car audio builds. I had a whopping 500 subs.. lol My balance is like $98 right now but they won't cut you a check until over $100. Wish I could just donate balance or something.

I also always wondered how they can make millions on YouTube. I would also very much like to have such a source of income so that I can buy everything for my little daughter. But my reality is quite different, I have been working for many years at a job I don't like and I get what can't be called a salary. So I'm looking for an opportunity to earn extra money. This is how I learned about amazon fba business and it sounds like a profitable business. If you know anything about this, please give me some tips.
