Youtube is the world's most popular video hosting site, which appeared in 2005 and within a few years became one of the most visited sites in the world, after which it was bought out by Google Corporation. YouTube provides earning opportunities for users who post videos. In this article, let's talk about all the opportunities to earn money on youtube channel in 2024.
How to start a YouTube channel
YouTube gives you the opportunity to monetize your videos, which can be filmed on your phone or camcorder. Your goal is for the video to become popular and gather a lot of views. This is how a person from scratch can make good money from advertising.
To create a channel, you need to go through the registration procedure:
- Open YouTube.
- Try leaving a comment under any video. The system will prompt you to register and create a channel.
- Enter the name of the channel, provide a valid e-mail (only from gmail.com), phone number.
After registration, Youtube offers beginners to undergo training, where the user will learn how to quickly make the channel popular from scratch, what it takes to make quality videos and where to get good ideas for this.
Think of a "feature" for your channel that will attract and retain viewers.
In addition, make or order a professional channel design - header, splash screen. If you can't do it yourself, use the services of freelancers. It is inexpensive, and a beautifully designed channel attracts subscribers. Be sure to fill out a description of the channel. It is also important to think about the description of each video.
When the channel is created and designed, post some clips. Youtubers advise you to pay special attention to the sound quality.
YouTube channel promotion
It's not enough to create a channel and post videos there. You need to make as many people as possible aware of you. To do this, you need to promote your channel.
First of all, let your friends and family know about the channel and ask them to subscribe, leave comments, put likes under the video.
Post videos regularly, at least 1-2 per week. Work on picture and sound quality, come up with original ideas.
For search engine promotion, collect keyword queries in Wordstat. Properly describe each video using keywords.
Leave meaningful and interesting comments on behalf of the channel on popular channels of your and related topics. Your activity will help to attract new subscribers.
Some website owners do reviews of YouTube channels. Ask to be included in their selection.
Try cross-promotion with other channels of similar topics and approximately the same level of subscribers.
If you have the budget, use paid methods of promotion - for example, advertising with other bloggers. But many people have "promoted" from scratch and without investing money at the start, it just takes a little more time.
When you reach the right number of views, monetization will be available to you.
The main opportunities for earning money from YouTube advertising
The source of video bloggers' income is advertising:
1. Incorporating advertising into your commercials. The price depends on the average views and theme, but on average you can count on the amount of 200 rubles per thousand views. That is, for a channel whose videos gain 100,000 views, you can earn 20,000 rubles.
Advertising can be in the form of:
A preroll is a small insert before the main video.
Integrations, where ads are included in a commercial - for example, in the middle.
A full promotional video dedicated to a particular company, product or service. You can count on the appearance of advertisers when your videos gain at least 20 thousand views.
2. YouTube monetization programwhere YouTube itself adds ads to your videos and pays the channel owner a portion of the money from advertisers.
If people watch a video, they have to watch an ad, and it can be skipped after only 15-30 seconds of viewing. This is a kind of technical minimum for which the advertiser pays money.
In addition to video ads, in the process of viewing, trizer blocks appear, they cover part of the window and you have to close them to continue viewing. The channel owner also gets money for them - but only for clicking on these ads.
3. affiliates - redirecting the user from his/her account to the partner channel
4. On the links - they can be placed in the description under the video. In this way, other channels offering goods or services are promoted. This method can be called a kind of earnings on affiliates. Even a small channel with 1000 subscribers can take from 500 rubles for one link under the video;
5. Channel rental - the user can post their videos on a promoted channel and share the profits with the owner. This is a good option to earn money on Youtube if you are not 18 years old.
6. Sale of goods and services. An option for those who have an existing business and use YouTube as one of the channels for attracting clients. You can sell consultations, books, clothes, games - anything. Under the video in this case leave a link to order. If you do not have your own goods and services, you can promote someone else's - then it is already an affiliate.
7. Donuts. This is a system of voluntary donations. The author asks you to transfer money to help him or to develop the channel. This is especially often done by stream organizers.

How much can you make?
The amount of earnings depends on the number of views. First of all, you need to connect monetization, i.e. become a YouTube partner. Requirements for partnership sometimes change, but as of May 2020 you need at least 1000 subscribers and at least 4000 hours of watching your videos per year.
Immediately it may seem like high demands, but considering that Youtube has about 1 billion daily visitors, it's not that much.
There is a rough calculation of earnings from subscriptions and views. For 1000 visitors, the owner of the channel will receive from 0.2 to 2 dollars. The price depends on the topic and audience of the channel. Foreign audience in youtube is more expensive than the Russian-speaking, and the financial channel will earn more than the channel for teenagers (if we take into account only the YouTube affiliate program income - and teenagers can earn extra on advertising integrations).

Important nuances of earning money on YouTube
In order for a Youtube channel to bring in earnings, you need to know a few important points:
- It is possible to make money from other people's videos, but to do so, you should study the service's policy on copyright protection. To use someone else's video content, you need to buy a Creative Commons license. There are 6 variants of this license, and only 3 of them allow you to make money from other people's videos - and that under certain conditions. A channel that uses someone else's video is called a gray channel.
- In case of copyright infringement, Youtube puts a strike and then permanently blocks the channel, as well as stops monetizing income through Google Adsense. Accordingly, earning from subscriptions and views will become impossible.

If the user is younger, you will need permission from his parents. But this is a formality, it is enough to register an account for an adult, and a child can develop it and earn money.
- Earnings from YouTube can be withdrawn to wallets of electronic payment systems. To withdraw money from Google Adsense you need to register in the payment system Rapida. The second option - you can get money through the mail. The user receives a letter with a special code, enters it and withdraws the money.
- Youtube only allows you to use music in your video that is contained in the service's playlist.
