Generally speaking, if you’re looking for video content, there tends to not be a better site for it than YouTube. Many argue that YouTube has a monopoly on the video-content game, but considering YouTube works so well, does it matter all that much?
All jokes aside, YouTube is not only an excellent platform for consumers to go out and enjoy content from their favorite YouTubers but as a way for people to make money. In fact, YouTube has birthed numerous careers from people, with some making millions from their channels alone.
Considering all of us are looking for more ways to make money, especially in creative efforts, it’s quite remarkable how people can make such a large income from a platform like YouTube. Plus, it can be very inspiring to look at something like the highest paid YouTube stars of 2020.
Truth be told, anyone can become a YouTube star as long as they’re disciplined and patient with their pursuit. Obviously, not everyone will have the ability to thrive as some do. Still, as long as you stick with it, you’ll be able to achieve a level of success, not everyone has. But then again, how do YouTubers make money in the first place?
If you told someone fifteen years ago that there’d be a video site where people can make millions of dollars on their own, they wouldn’t know what you meant. As complicated as a subject as this might seem, it’s reasonably straightforward how YouTubers make money.
For starters, Ad Revenue tends to be the primary source of income for YouTubers. If you see ads on a YouTube video, that means that channel makes a percentage of a penny from you watching or clicking on the ad. The more views a video gets, the more money it makes.
Besides advertisements, YouTubers can make money from affiliate marketing, paid reviews and content, clothing brands, and much more. Since YouTube allows people to become immensely popular at a relatively quick rate, it’s impressive how many revenue streams people can make from it.
Plus, the popularity someone gains from YouTube allows them to open up other revenue streams such as having a Patreon page, live-streaming on Twitch, and countless other efforts. Nevertheless, let’s take a look at the highest paid YouTube stars of 2020.
