This is How to Make Money on YouTube

One of the most common questions people ask me when they find out what I write is,

 "How to make money on YouTube?"

Oh, boy.

This used to be a simple answer. When the first YouTube users started making money, which was predominantly through the choice to run ads on their video channels' (still do today), but also through the sale of goods. Creators would link to their branded shirts, stickers, buttons ... basically, which could produce low cost and still make a small profit. More progressive production companies, who have had enough success could afford to take some risks, it would encourage viewers to join their membership sites, promising exclusive content and promotions galore.

While these are still tried and true methods, some YouTube users have decided to experiment with other methods of monetization through the years. And why not? The growing popularity of online video is sufficient for creators to maximize your earning potential incentive.

For starters, the distribution has changed in some very unique ways. While many artists continue to sell items directly from their shops, they are looking for other ways to get their products more expensive and time-consuming in front of as many eyes as possible. For example, the creators have partnered with large companies that specialize in the distribution of put your content on the internet - this is what the comedy trio of Hannah Hart, Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart made his film Camp Takota. And in a bold move, Kurt Hugo Schneider YouTuber debuted his film Musical College for a livestream and then put it on iTunes for purchase. Hundreds of fans Schneider caught the livestream viewing (they got the hashtag # CollegeMusical to trend on Twitter), and are now able to help spread the word about the film through word-of-mouth.

Other YouTube users are obeying the old days when artists were supported by customers. They figure that if your audience really love what they are doing, they will be monetarily support. And often, audiences are. Kickstarter and Indiegogo are going to destinations for the request for funding for projects that YouTube fan might otherwise have difficulty producing themselves. In addition, YouTube users can now use multiple sites, one of them is the aptly named-Patreon as "tip jars" digital where fans can go to donate money when they want - not for a specific project for a creator but just as a gesture to say "I love what you're doing, keep it up." Yes YouTube is testing its own characteristic tip jar with some beta creators; if it works well, all developers can use the function.

Besides, YouTube also just announced that they will pay some of its main creators. Of course, this does not all users will be applied at the site; the few with a proven track record impact gain followers and get first dibs. Whether or not this is an incentive to stay in the YouTube video platform in place to address the growing efforts of Facebook video is speculation at this point. However, it is very telling when one of the largest sites online video choose-straight pay its main users on more than the advertising revenue (which is still a commendable effort, because for years this form of income has made YouTube the only social media site that pays its users - they do not get paid to tweet, right?).

Like many celebrities, YouTube users also have methods of making money that are more "traditional". Appearances and talks are an easy way to make money once your name is big enough to reach beyond the scope of just your YouTube fans. Although in theory any YouTuber could apply these tactics in your business, which works very well with those who are a) popular, b) education, c) both of the first. A good example is Laci Green, who runs a channel called Sex + all about sex education. She is available to speak at schools and other gatherings of young adults. In a world where teenagers probably rather hear about this issue from someone close to their own ages, is a smart financial decision for Green.

People who are curious about YouTube seem to assume such efforts are not economically plausible. They do not see video creators as "real" people who need to earn a living. Not that I can not see them in this way, never gave it a thought. That's why I'm always happy when I'm asked that age old question, "How to make money on YouTube?"

How to make money with mobile remains a puzzle

Vice Brooklyn Giant Digital Media Inc. is full of money, ambition and confidence, but executives face the same challenge everyone bothersome: How can we make money with all these people on their mobile devices? 

"The Holy Grail for every media company is now mobile," 

said founder and CEO Shane Smith in an interview with Bloomberg News this week. "Mobile is the Wild West.'s Scale where everyone is coming from, but it is very difficult to monetize at this time."

It is expected that mobile ad spending will grow 83 percent to $ 18 billion this year. But even with this growth, mobile only account for about 10 percent of the collective budgets marketers' while more than a quarter of all time spent online is now happening on a phone or tablet. Closing that gap is a fundamental objective for any media company in particular focusing on a young international crowd as Vice President.

"It's hard," Smith said. "All the questions came here three or four years ago, when it became a buzzword monetize species, and that everything is happening right now," Smith said. "I think Google is looking at her Facebook too.'s Number one concern worldwide, and is also our number one concern."

Smith did not refer directly to the latest round of accusations that Vice Blossoming allows operation to be influenced by news advertisers, but did say the walls of the company outside its news division sales ads.

"For Vice News, no advertising Vice News" said. "The most popular thing we have is our online news platform, which is the part of most rapid growth of our business, but do not actually put advertising next to it for that reason. Yet in travel, food , and all the other things that make a lot of money. We rob Peter to pay Paul. "

Of course, keep the display advertising news sites in no way prevents a brand to influence journalistic decisions. For example, recently a former editor said Vice Vice rejected story ideas as they may conflict with the advertising interests.

Smith reiterated its intention to maintain independent Vice, even when it's added capital investors to raise capital. "We are not selling in the short term," he said. "We just made a deal of such guarantees our independence for next time anyway. Raised $ 500 million to enter the mobile, go online and explore television network. So let's look at three screens and just keep going ".

As Vice expands on the news channels and becomes more sophisticated as a corporate entity, that you are attenuating the swashbuckling exploits its journalists are so known for? Certainly not in style, but perhaps a little in practice, Smith admitted. Vice has withdrawn from Liberia amid the severe crisis of Ebola.

"Back in the day, we might have left them there, and keep recording said," Smith said. "Now we're saying, look, we got our stuff, we'll get out of the way until we see which way the wind blows. Want to err on the side of caution."
