Almost No One Is Making a Living on YouTube

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

It's the same for everything. Saturation kills the game.

 

[Mr. Negative]

Maybe people need to show Youtube its not about them anymore.

Google wants full control and that includes content they only agree with.

thanks to their new marketing plan of showing bullshyt ads followed by an offer for youtube red, they're creating a lane for any kind of competitor. All google ever had to do was leave well enough alone. They won the internet war.

But nope.

The only real advantages they've got right now is the depth of their content and brand recognition. But they've been juggling knives blindfolded for the last three years, feeling invincible. Cutting ad revenue for small timers, pushing youtube red, censoring content......

You'd swear they got bored and are daring themselves to fail.

Or they know something we don't. One of the two.

Reaction videos dun fukked the game up

 

[Kingshango]

Only way to make good bank off of Youtube now is reaction video's, ASMR (if you're a girl, expect extra views) couples vlogs and toy unboxing video's (those get millions of views for some reason.).

Whoever did their research doesn't know what they are doing.

There's a chick with 40k subs on YouTube talking about she gets 2k a month in checks.

 

[Biblical Goon]

so much clickbait on youtube now, its hard to even browse that shyt

d.tube and steemit are the future. Thank me later

 

[Vilify]

I've always been suspicious of the claim that "YouTube stars" are making millions. Perhaps 0.1% of them are.

 

[Slimkid07]

There was too many people uploading controversial bullshyt like Nazis, conspiracy theorists, and Tommy Sotomayor. Then that pewdiepie fakkit couldnt keep the n word out his mouth and now here we are.

I used to make 200+ a month strictly off of views on my beats for about a year before my shyt got demonetized.

Breh, can you go into a little more detail how you got demonetized and were affected by the Pewdiepies and Jake Pauls of the Youtube world.

Just a question because i wonder how much the ad dollars and payrates got changed after the controversy. I know Youtube polices its content creators
more but I wonder why those who put up non offensive content got screwed while the Pewdiepies didnt see any drop in their profits.

They know that people wont give them up and others wont bring a large following over to another platform. Plus the celebrities and the media plug it every chance they get.

Amazon video suppose to drop soon. Maybe that will change the game up

So she showed you her checks?

 

[Roid Jones]

The heyday of making money on Youtube is long gone, it can still be done but the barriers to doing that is way more difficult now.
