My Favorite Ways To Monetize My YouTube Channel
While many believe that revenue solely comes from ad payouts, you can monetize your YouTube channel in numerous ways.
Here are some of my favorites:
Advertising Revenue: The Bread and Butter
One of the primary sources of income for YouTubers is advertising revenue.
You can earn three to five dollars for every thousand views your video receives.
Balancing the number of ads in your video is crucial to avoid annoying your viewers. The magic number is eight minutes — videos of this length or longer can have multiple ads.
Channel Memberships: Exclusive Access for Dedicated Fans
By creating channel memberships, you can offer exclusive content to your viewers. This could include member-only videos, live streams, chats, or community posts. Custom badges and emojis further enhance the membership experience. Some creators have earned over a hundred thousand dollars solely through their channel memberships.
