How to Start a Youtube Channel and Earn Money Did you know you can potentially make a great living from your videos via a you tube channel? If you want to create one or already have one, but aren’t sure as to how to generate an income from your channel, then you’re

in the right place. Read on and I will walk you through how to start a youtube channel and earn money.

How to Start a Youtube Channel and Earn Money Create a channel The rst step in the process of becoming a YouTuber is to create your channel if you haven’t already. You can create a channel based on almost anything, but it is important to make sure you have knowledge and the passion for what you are talking about. This is important, because if you create a channel on something you don’t really like or know anything about, you may lose the desire to create content.

Make sure that you create a great name for your channel Short and sweet is usually the way to go. These kind of names are usually easy to remember. It’s probably best if you create a new Google account with the same name as your you tube channel. If you have any problems with your channel’s name you can always change it through your Google+ account settings.

Keywords are important Remember to add keywords connected to your content in the advanced section in the settings option on your channel. This way people who are interested in your content are able to nd you. You want your content to be as compact as possible. The name of the game is to be yourself and to entertain. It’s important to be authentic because your audience can easily tell if you’re putting up

a show. Besides, isn’t it more fun to just let yourself be… yourself? Check out my blog post on advice for beginner bloggers for more info on creating content. How to Start a Youtube Channel and Earn Money

So… how long will it take ’till you’re swimming in money? Ok, slow down there. This is not an overnight process. It will take time for you to build an audience and eventually receiving checks. That’s why it’s so important to be passionate about what you are vlogging. It’s important to enjoy the process too. To enhance your success rate, it is crucial to strive to deliver the best content you can. You must be consistent and persistent in delivering content as frequent as possible. It’s recommended that you post new content on a weekly basis. This will not only keep your subscribers happy but will also build your following. Just think about the people you closely follow on you tube, instagram, etc. If you’re really interested in their content, you’re going to keep an eye out for their next post and you eventually get used to them posting every Thurdsday, for example. Although it’s not essential for you to have the best camera, lighting , etc for your vlogs, it will greatly boost the quality of your viewer’s experience. Just remember, you don’t have to fork out a ton of money to start. Filming with your iphone is great to start out with. Remember, we need to use what we have, in order to get to where we want to be. But, if you would like to start off with some great gear, here is what a lot of tubers are using:

Suggested cameras for vlogging

With the Canon M50

Sony A6400 Both of these cameras have a ip out screen so you are able to look at yourself while you are vlogging. They also both have auto focus, which is great, since you don’t have to worry about being out of focus while you’re shooting. If you’re like me and are not so tech savvy, I would recommend the canonM50, since it’s a bit simpler to use.

Suggested lighting for vlogging

Halo Ring light The halo ring light, or ever so lovingly nicknamed the ‘diva ring’, is amazing for lighting. It’s super affordable, easy to set up and it drastically changes the quality of your videos. Now you’re ready to monetise your videos and start generating money from your content. Just follow these steps: 1. Go to “My channel” 2. Select the “Video Manager” 3. Select “Channel” in the left menu 4. Click enable in the “Monetisation” section 5. Done! Now that you’ve set up your you tube channel for monetisation. YouTube will now run ads on your videos. You now have to focus on getting the word out. Use social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) to attract people to your youtube channel. Make sure to respond to your viewer’s comments and let them know you appreciate them.

Here are the minimum requirements to start earning money on you tube: *A minimum of 4,000 hours viewed *A minimum of 1,000 subscribers

*Google AdSense account

Why You Need Google AdSense Google AdSense is how you will get paid. It’s free to set up an account on their website, but you have to be 18 or have a legal guardian set it up for you. They also require you to have a PayPal account or a valid address.

Online Business & Af liate Marketing Another way to generate income is by creating an online business where you can sell your own products. The easiest way to make money through vlogging is to get into af liate marketing. This is where you sell other people’s products for a commission. In doing so, you don’t have to worry about having your own warehouse, products, etc. Are you interested in learning everything you need to know on af liate marketing?
