As an artist, have you ever wondered how much money you could make if you had a successful YouTube channel?
While earnings vary greatly from YouTuber to YouTuber, we can give you a general idea of how much money artists can make from YouTube. The amount of money an artist can make depends on a number of factors, the most important being the number of views their videos get. The more views a video has, the more money an artist can make from YouTube.
What factors define monetization?
Some YouTubers who are artists make a full-time living from their channel, while others supplement their income with other jobs. The amount of money an artist can make from YouTube depends on a number of factors, let’s check them together:
- The number of subscribers they have
- The number of views their videos get
- The number of people who click on the ads that run on their videos
- The country their viewers are in (Ad rates vary from country to country)
- Whether or not their channel is monetized (of course! the first Youtube rule is: you need to have at least 1.000 followers or 4.000 hours of visualization to start earning)
What factors further influence monetization?
There are then, some factors that further influence the success of a youtube channel or not:
- The quality of the videos
- The length of the videos
- The quality of the content
- The engagement (i.e., how interesting is your content? The longer the user watches your video, the more your value on youtube goes up)
Video regularity and human connections
When you post a video on YouTube, you’re creating a commitment with your viewers.
By posting regularly, you’re developing a habit that your followers will come to expect. This habit creates an invisible pact between you and your followers, one that will keep them coming back for more.
As a YouTube creator, you have the opportunity to connect with your viewers in a very personal way. You can build a relationship with them that goes beyond just the content you’re putting out. By being consistent with your posting schedule, you’re showing your viewers that you’re reliable and that they can count on you.
This type of commitment takes time and effort, but it’s worth it. Your viewers will appreciate your dedication to them, and you’ll be rewarded with their loyalty. So if you’re ready to make the commitment, go for it! You won’t regret it.
Let’s talk about numbers now!
As a YouTuber, you can earn ad revenue from your videos through Google Adsense. On average, YouTubers earn $0.01 to $0.03 per ad view, which equates to $3 to $5 per 1,000 video views. However, for top talent, a YouTuber can earn about $5 per 1,000 video views.
Forbes estimates that a YouTuber can earn $5 for every 1,000 views of their videos. This means that a YouTube video with 1,000,000 views can earn up to $5,000, a very good amount to make a living as an artist, don’t you think?
Conclusion
The rules for monetization on YouTube are few and very simple. With percentage changes, you could earn enough money to live your life as an artist with peace of mind.
The hardest part, in fact, is being able to find the right combination of quality, engagement and content. Once you find the formula that works for you, nothing and no one can stop you from being what you really want: an artist!
