Who Actually Makes Money From Youtube Videos?

9 replies
So that's my question.
Everyone talks about how fast youtube ranks fast on the search engine. But I want to know who has actually made money using this platform to drive traffic to their sites. And no I am not talking about people who have made just pennies. I want to know about people who have made five to six figures. Any examples please.

    Example for what? The screenshots of their accounts or photographs with smile?

    Everyone has their own ways, and now a days to make good money you don't have to stick with onething such as video marketing, you've to play viral to make 5 to 6 figures.

      I am not talking about screen shots. I meant people for examples.

    I'm not making 6 figures through my youtube videos, it's a side income stream earning $150-200 a day. Youtube video's should never be your main source of income, your videos can all be shutdown at once and you'll go back to earning $0/day...

    Sure autopilot cash is the best thing you'll ever experience in your life, but i believe that if you're a great SEO you shouldn't just try and hustle with youtube videos - expand and create authority blogs instead of creating youtube videos for a living.

      I agree. How many videos are you using to get those stats?

    He dude, nice title to be discussed. Yes I'm making a money via youtube. I'm earning $47 within 24 hours. Frankly, I'm not produced or uploading any video to youtube. The best part is a money goes directly to my paypal account.

    I dont know how much they're making from this traffic source alone, but I have clients tell me that each video I do for them brings in several more visitors each week. The videos are usually tutorials or how-to type videos. Then at the end of giving really good info, they may say something like "go to my website for more..."

    So if you're trying to figure out if video marketing 'works' or is 'worth it', perhaps the question should be "who has actually seen more traffic using this platform?"

    Because once the visitor is at the site, it's up to that webmaster to deliver the goods at a price point where they will make money.

    Idk, Does that help?

    There are people out there who make a full time living off of YouTube. Any Youtuber who enables monetizing and has over 1 million subscribers will usually generate enough money for a living. Youtube pays partners per 1 thousand views which adds up if you have a popular channel.
