Here’s how to make money with ‘YouTube’

Simply, start a Google account and sign in to YouTube. Decide on the genre and name beforehand. Also, create unique thumbnail and cover images before you start. To maintain a workflow, it is advisable to create sufficient content from the beginning before you start your channel. As a rule of thumb, it is advisable to have two or three weeks of planned and ready-to-upload videos. This will help you to be regular and consistent. The basics of production suggest that you make videos mute-friendly with proper subtitles and incorporate a good voice-over. While smartphone cameras are good for starters, remember it is always the shots and angle that makes a good video great. You will have to think like a director.

After getting these basics right, you should aim to get enrolled to YouTube Partner Program with 1000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours. Once this is achieved, you will have to connect your YouTube channel to a Google Adsense account to get paid for monetised videos. After this you will have to continue making engaging videos to gain traction. Lastly, you will have to wait and expect your ad-engagement to increase to earn money.

Here are three other common ways to earn money from your established YouTube channel.

For example, if your channel is about food, then you can feature sponsored restaurant reviews. Businesses are ready to spend money if you can promise them good online traction.

2) Product placement: This is similar to what movies and TV channels do. Of course, the price depends on how established your channel is. For example, you can incorporate products from the sponsoring brand while making a general video on your Food-based YouTube channel.

3) Affiliate links: If you are commenting on a certain product in your YouTube video then you can add an affiliate link on the description to get some money when a viewer clicks on it to buy something or enroll in some online service. Income from affiliate links may not be big but it’s something you should not ignore.
