Sponsorships
With sponsorships, companies will reach out to you and you can make money by getting paid to promote their products or services. The advertisers will pay you a commission for every video view and sometimes even offer bonuses if the viewers do what they are asked or buy something that is being promoted in the video. It’s quite hard to get an actual sponsorship though, especially if you have a small channel and are still relatively unknown.
Promoting Affiliate offers
Promoting affiliate offers is another way to make money with YouTube. However, unlike sponsorship this can be done without needing a company to reach out to you and offer you to promote something. Instead, you can simply find specific products that are related to channel which have an affiliate program and start promoting it instantly. Then you’ll get paid a commission for every sale that you generate from your video.
Sell Merchandise on Your Channel
You can also create merchandise, like t-shirts or mugs, and sell them on your channel! Many channels have used this in the past and seen great success. This is probably the most common way to make good money on YouTube outside of AdSense.
Donations
You can also make money on YouTube by accepting donations. You’ll need to set up a PayPal account or other type of payment system beforehand, but once your viewers know that you’re taking donations they may be willing to donate if they appreciate the value you provide through your YouTube content.
AdSense
YouTube AdSense is another great way to monetize your videos. You’ll need a lot of views before you start seeing any money from AdSense and these days it’s incredibly tough with all the competition, but it is still an option! And an easy option at that. All you need to do is get 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time and then you can apply to be in the YouTube partner program which will then allow you to monetize your videos with ad placements. However, it’s also possible to buy a monetized YouTube channel from FameMass before you even get started. That way you can start making money from AdSense right away instead of waiting to accrue to required time and hours to be a part of YouTube’s Partner Program.
Conclusion
As you can see, making money on YouTube is not only possible, it’s pretty easy too! You just have to commit to it and learn how to do the work. If you’re able to create high quality content and engage your audience then all you need to is use one of monetization methods we’ve listed above and you’ll be rolling in money in no time!
