Tips On How To Make Money On YouTube

1. Become An Affiliate Marketer

Affiliate marketing is one of the standard ways YouTubers make money – and you can start without even being in the YouTube Partner Program. It allows you to easily monetize your audience’s needs by promoting other businesses’ products and services. Choosing affiliate programs that align with your channel’s theme and your audience’s interests is important. Being genuine and promoting products you believe in can significantly boost your success. As your subscriber base grows, so does the potential for increased affiliate income, establishing a solid revenue stream.

2. YouTube Partner Program

The YouTube Partner Program (YPP) allows creators to monetize their videos through ads, channel memberships and more. To join YPP, creators need at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 valid public watch hours in the past 12 months. While joining is completely optional, it does give you access to a variety of channels for making money, including Premium subscription fees and a merchandise shelf.

3. Sell Products or Merchandise

If there’s one thing big YouTubers can tell you, it is that they’re no longer just content creators; they’re a brand in itself. Physical and digital products have become a major path to monetization for many creators. Selling merchandise can be vital for creators who want to grow their brand and audience relationship because it takes a part of them offline and into the real world. You have a wealth of options when it comes to what to sell.

4. Crowdfund Your Next Project

This is similar to fan funding but is usually a one-time contribution from anyone who wants to support your content. This is a viable option for making money on YouTube if you’re looking for monthly revenue or a one-time donation to jumpstart your efforts. All you would need is a loyal audience who believes and trusts you.

5. License To The Media

Most content doesn’t go viral. When it does, however, many news outlets want copies so that they can replay it to their audience. In this case, you can make money by licensing it to the media and charging them a license fee for permission to use it. It’s a way to earn from content you’ve already created and can amplify your content’s reach beyond your channel.
