How Much I've Made on YouTube (First 6 Months Monetized w/ ~100k Subscribers)
From a few dollars a day to a few hundred dollars a day, here's how much YouTube paid me in the first 6 months since I've been monetized! I walk you through how I reached monetization, how going viral affected my YouTube ad sense income, and give you a peek into my other income streams beyond YouTube.
🎥 More about this video:
I've had this channel for awhile (just celebrated my 10 year anniversary since starting it!) and a lot has changed since them. Last fall I finally figured out a style and niche for me, and since then the channel - and the income I've gotten from this channel - has grown. Something that was really inspiring for me throughout the journey was seeing how other people were doing in their YouTube journey, including how they were able to make money from growing their channel. So I hope this video provides inspiration and motivation to those who are starting their creator journey or are looking for that kick of inspiration.
In addition to showing you the ad sense breakdown, I also chat through how I'm using that money, my other income streams, and my plans for this channel/business in the future.
Thank you so, so much to those who watch and support my videos. I am incredibly appreciative of you all. I really love creating these videos and I'm so glad people enjoy watching them. ❤️
