Youtube a well known online video website that serves you well if you have some talent or quality video. It just not serves you with audience but with money. In 2010 for band Sanam which had huge talent but not the connect they desired. They had done all that was required for a great kick start for a band like theirs – winning a popular talent show ‘Times Superstars’ back in 2010 and releasing their music through big labels like Times Music and Saregama.

Youtube has not only democratized stardom, but it has also turned hidden talent into making money with their talent. Six years after Sanam hit Youtube and made it, a variety of talented ‘Youtubepreneurs’ have found fame and money online by by uploading their videos.

With YoutTube one can turn their diverse passions like comedy, fashion, travel, cooking, technology etc – into maney-making enterprises. The content creation wave on YouTube till a few years ago was more about music and stand-up comedy, which saw the rise of the likes of All India Bakchod (AIB) and Vir Das. However, YouTube has now transitioned to a more diverse platform where one can attain stardom – and make money – through something as creating video such like tuition tips, gadget reviews etc.

Booming Viewing Business

India’s YouTubepreneurs ride on a rising tide of viewership powered by cheap data and smartphones reaching even distant villages. In the few years, India as emerged as an incredibly dynamic content and user market for YouTube, according to Satya Raghavan, head of entertainment, YouTube India. “We now have more than 300 channels with over a million subscribers, from just sixteen such channels in 2014. At the beginning of 2016, YouTube only had two creator channels with one million subscribers and today there are 133 such independent creators who contribute across genres, including music, food, beauty, technology and automobiles,” he says.

Today, India is one of the fastest-growing market for YouTube with daily active viewers growing at 100% year on year. When such a large number of people come online to view videos, they create big opportunities for advertisers – and also for the YouTubepreneurs who get money for ads displayed on their channel.

How much money we can make from YouTube?

Due to growing use of smartphones will create viable business opportunity on YouTube. Though a lot of people are making money on YouTube, it’s not an easy task and certainly not a reliable source – at least in the beginning. But if you cross a threshold, money is not a problem. The payment YouTubepreneurs receive varies from month to month. YouTube monetization is subject to a lot of things. You need to own the copyrights to the content and music in your video. It depends on where people are watching from and how long they watch. It’s not a fixed fee for a certain number of views.

Raghavan of YouTube shared that a content creator needs to cross 4000 hours of watch time within 12 months and have atleast 1000 subscribers to become eligible to earn revenue from their channels through Google Adsense. YouTube works on a revenue-sharing model through Google Adsense. Creators make money on YouTube through advertising. Once they upload a video on YouTube and tell to show ads on their video, ads start to run on their content, and they get the majority share of the advertising revenue.

Remember you need to drive with passion with patience when you create the channel. The content must preserve the quality so that you can make money, without subscribers and good watch time you may struggle in getting you adsense account started. It sounds so good that we can make money but now it is so much competitive and people will watch your content to find out if it is not the content that violate any copyright issue. Because if its violate copyright issue you may not get money.

Although it is the good source of income from home and driving your passion. I will not suggest to leave your job and become YouTubepreneurs, unless you have good business model and driving force to create real quality video content to make your viewers watch and subscribe your channel.
