Earn from youtube and get growth from YouTube

To be considered eligible for the Youtube partner program, you should have a channel on Youtube that has 4,000 valid public watch hours in the last 12 months and more than 10,000 subscribers. So let’s dive a bit deeper into how do creators earn money on Youtube.

• Advertising Revenue: Youtubers receive ad revenue when someone sees display, overlay, or video advertisements on their channel. Youtubers earn between $3 and $5 per thousand video views on average.
• Channel Memberships: Your subscribers make a monthly recurring payment in exhange for exlusive perks that you offer.
• Super Chats & Super Stickers: Your subscribers pay to have their messages displayed in chat streams.
• Merch Shelf: Your subscribers can shop for and purchase authentic branded merchandise shown on your watch pages.
• Youtube Premium Revenue: Get a portion of a YouTube Premium subscriber’s subscription fee when they view your video.

YouTube’s advertising revenue figure varies based on where you get your video views from. Let’s say, for instance, that the majority of video views come from India; your video could be making anywhere from $1.5 to $3 per thousand video views. But if your viewers are from the United States, your video could fetch anywhere from $2 to $4 per thousand video views.Again, many factors determine this figure, including the nature of your content, the audience you are targeting, how frequently you upload content, etc. So it is difficult to accurately predict how much money you can make on Youtube going by just CPM estimates. At best, the YouTube Money Calculator that we have created only provides you a guestimate of your channel’s earning potential.

Also, world events like the pandemic impacted Youtube earnings last year as most Youtuber’s saw a nearly 30% dip in their earnings. That’s why most Youtubers derisk themselves by making money from other sources like paid promotions, affiliate marketing, channel sponsorships, fan funding, and more.

How much money do youtubers make in India?

Some of the highest-paid Youtubers make close to $20 million a year. But the fact that Youtubers can also earn money from outside of the Youtube Partners Program makes this a difficult question to answer. Ryan Kanji, for instance, has earned an estimated $200m from Ryan’s World branded toys and clothing, including Marks & Spencer pyjamas.

He also inked an undisclosed, but presumably multimillion-dollar, contract with Nickelodeon for his own television series. The television series is now in its fourth season and has garnered much criticism. Similarly, Indian YouTubers are now creating their own original web series under the banner of YouTube Originals. ‘Dhindora’ is being produced by Bhuvan Bham for YouTube Originals. YouTube Originals are the platform’s original series, films, and events.

There are platforms like Social Blade, Nox Influencer, Videooly, and others that help you understand the Youtube earning of creators. However, as previously stated, these are just estimations of how much money channels may make via the Youtube Partner Program.

The below chart is a good indicator of how much money your video could make depending on the number of views earned. The data also differentiates how much US creators earn vs. Indian creators. As previously stated, several factors come into play as a creator, including the niche of the video, the length of the video (longer films often include at least two ads), and the source of the audience.

Video Views Estimated Earnings (in dollars) Estimated Earnings (in ₹)

10K $50 to $80 ₹200 to ₹500

100K $500 to $2,500 ₹2,000 to ₹5,000

1 Million $3,400 to $40,000 ₹7,000 to ₹30,000

150 Million $80,000 to $100,000 ₹1,50,000 to ₹6,00,000

YouTube Earnings (Estimates based on Video Views)

But earnings also come with an element of unpredictability, and sometimes the numbers can be completely different from the estimates above. As a result, your experience as a creator will be contextualized by the niche in which you operate, the country in which you operate, and the type of content you produce.
