How to Make Money on Youtube

There are tons of ways to make money with Youtube, whitehat, blackhat, greyhat, and even more!  Today I’m going to talk about the whitehat way that thousands of people are making some serious cash on Youtube.

You’ve heard about viral videos on Youtube, videos like “Charlie bit my finger”.  This cute little video has gotten serious views (447 million as of right now).  Do you know that the guy who posted this video has pulled in six figures?  Six figures from simply posting the video.  He didn’t have to do any work.  He didn’t have to do any SEO, no social marketing, no youtube view boosters, nothing.  Youtube has an advertising partner program.  The catch is that you can’t just waltz in and sign up to it, you need to post original videos that generate enough views to get you invited to the Youtube partner program.  How many views?  Well that isn’t exactly known.  I’ve heard if you have a video that hits 100,000 views in a week or less there’s a good chance you’ll get invited to the program.

There are people who do this for a living.  They make videos, post them on Youtube, attract a following, and participate in the revenue share program.  The Top Earners in this are pulling in seven figures a year… yes, that is millions of dollars.  Now don’t think you can make a video of yourself because you think you’re funny, or you’re hot, or whatever and become a millionaire.  A single viral video can pull in six figures for the video’s owner, but if you want to make a consistent living off this you need to put in some work.  First, you need to make videos that will appeal to the masses.  The more people that view the videos the greater the chance that they click on the ads or see the ads embedded within your video.  Coming up with a niche to create videos in can be difficult.  Funny videos are the best because it is the funny video that will go viral before all else.  If you are an expert in something you could produce video tutorials.  If you are an Einstein on cars you could create video tutorials on tons of different car issues that people have.  If you have crazy Microsoft excel skills you could do some tutorials on that.  You really need to put in some time and effort to find a niche that has enough interest in it to have a chance of success.

Now, if you take someone else’s video and post it you won’t be getting invited to the Youtube advertising revenue share program.  You need to create your own content to be invited.

So buy yourself a Flip or some kind of mini video camera and make a video.  Upload it to Youtube and see what happens.  What’s the worst that can happen?  You look like a fool and next thing you know the entire neighborhood has seen you making an ass of yourself online… but, in the event that your video takes off you can be laughing all the way to the bank.

How to increase free YouTube subscribers every 24 hours!

Getting more subscribers can seem like a difficult task, but I'll share 10 tips to help you get your first 1,000 subscribers.

1. Post Useful Content Consistently

This is one of the most difficult things to do as a content creator.  If you take a look around YouTube you might think that every video under the sun has been created and that is most likely true, but you can put your own spin on a popular topic.  For example, there are many “unboxing” tech videos...what if you created a “reboxing” and talk about the various components of tech while you put it back in the box?  The key here is creativity and that will certainly boost subscriptions.

2. Name Your Videos Strategically

One of the most difficult things is to name your video. You have the name in your head, but it may be something complex or too long.  My rule is to keep it basic and use the YouTube autocomplete to name the video.  There is nothing wrong with your video having the same name or something close to a popular video, as long as it's relevant.

3. Spruce Up Your Channel Design

Most visitors first impression of you is from your channel and your design. This is where visitors interact and get to know what you are about.  Create a engaging header and show off your brand.  On my channel, we were intentional about our design making it fit into our overall branding strategy. The key takeaway is to design with purpose.

4. Show Your Lighter Side

Lighten up and laugh at yourself.  Bloopers make you more human and show something different than an ordinary talking head video. Also, switch up the video and catch your viewers off guard so they don't know what to expect.

5. Shoot In Various Locations

I believe that shooting in various locations can lead to more interest. I understand that may not be possible or you may have a set, but try to change a background or even use a green screen. Like the cliché says, “variety is the spice of life” so mix it up with your backgrounds and locations.

6. Create A Custom Thumbnail

I have seen my subscriptions and views increase by adding this step.  I use impact font that is seen on many internet photos to grab attention and I format the photo using Adobe Photoshop.

I usually title the photo thumbnail differently than the video because when people are scrolling through other videos to view, they can easily tell what my video is about.

7. Use Annotations

Annotations are those annoying things that pop up during videos, but they can be a content creator's dream.  I add annotations to every video and make it easy by creating a link for them to subscribe.  This is extra work, but once you see your subscription rate increase you will continue to add them to every video.

8. Ask For Subscribers

This is very basic. At the end of every video ask viewers to “like” and subscribe to your channel.  You should also tell them why they should subscribe, for example if you are a DIY Home Improvement channel I would say, “subscribe for my DIY projects, tricks and insider tips delivered to you weekly.” Remember, be careful what you ask for, because you might get it.
