have you ever wondered how much money does a small youtube channel makes in
this video I'm going to show you exactly how much I make a small youtube channel
welcome back to the channel guys my name is Bruce Wang I'm a small-time youtuber
only nine thousand subscribers and counseling I started my youtube channel
in 2012 2011 and I didn't upload my first video until 2016 the second video
that I made went viral it got over 200,000 views thousands of comments you
can still go back to the beginning of my channel and you can still find that
there and after that video went viral I wanted to learn more about video editing
how to become more professional how to make better videos I did all that and I
went over like hours worth of YouTube videos just learning the craft and in
2017 that's when I decided to upload a bit more frequently there was a brand
new topic that I want to cover and that was cryptocurrency
and that's how this YouTube channel started to gain a lot of traction in
2017 that's when I got the bulk of my subscribers that's when I hit like 8000
subscribers and in 2018 I coasted most of the year did not gain that many
followers was not consistent at all but now in 2019 I'm turning over a new leaf
because I became a lot more disciplined and I've started to become a lot more
consistent in uploading my videos and that's why I want to share all my
experiences with you and exactly how much money I've made in in the last few
years let's just jump right into the video because that's what you're here
for right before we begin if you're brand new to the channel don't forget to
subscribe I make two new videos every week for the past few weeks now I've
been very consistent brand new content coming at you all the time so stay tuned
for that alright here it is let's get right into
it I'm in the YouTube studio app on my phone and I'm in the analytics of my
YouTube channel I'm gonna scroll to the right to see exactly
to show you exactly how much money that I've made I've watched a lot of videos
that show you exactly how much money bigger youtubers make specifically
grayham Stefan he makes over $100,000 worth of Adsense revenue so that's what
inspired me to make this video if you want to go check that out he's a great
channel I take a lot of inspiration from his channel so let's get right into it
my estimated revenue for the last 28 days is 108 dollars 107 dollars I've
been posting a lot more frequently lately so this number seems to be a
little OTT higher than usual and let's just get right into there so that's the
last four weeks from January 11th of February 7 116 dollars the 60 cents so
that's not too bad the last 90 days it's kind of its kind of weird if you can see
here your estimated revenue data is incorrect for some dates so the month of
November their work that Google is working to fix that so this is not going
to be 100% accurate but I'll let you know these numbers aren't too off as you
can see in the last 90 days this is saying that I made two hundred
twenty three dollars and two cents so that could be closer to three hundred if
you add in the November all YouTube channels they don't make a lot of money
from Adsense especially mine I make almost nothing in Adsense revenue just
to let you guys know alright in the last 365 days I've made six hundred and ten
dollars and 89 cents if we look for November you can probably add on at
minimum like 80 bucks 90 bucks so you can say this might even be
and even nine $700 that's for the last 365 days and if we look at the lifetime
revenues like I said in the beginning of the video I started to make youtube
videos in 2016 that's where you can see some green in 2017 and 18 specifically
at the end of 2017 that's when my channel blew up and I got a lot of views
a lot of subscribers in total I've made 2500 $13.75 you can add in another
hundred dollars because of the issue that Google is having right now they
can't give me November's revenue in the last two years I've made $2,600 rounding
up if you count for in November every week I make about 2 to 3 videos every
week and that takes about about 2 hours to make one video so that's like 6 hours
of work this is a very decent site income if you if you think about it
let's keep looking 365 days if I was a lot more consistent I would be able to
make a lot more than this in the last year I've been very inconsistent and
that's all on me that's my bad a lot of things have been happening but in this
year 2019 I'm gonna try my best to push this channel as far as I can go and see
where where I am at the end of the year I love watching videos of youtubers
sharing exactly how much money that they make so that is what inspired me to make
this video there's a lot more data here that I can show you so in February were
7 days in and my revenue estimated is about $50 at my current pace this month
I can make close up to almost $200 that is pretty crazy to me because creating
YouTube videos creating a channel and a business around it that is something
that you can scale up and make a lot more money from so this is just add
revenue I'm making some money from affiliate marketing what I plan to do in
the future is eight a product that will benefit my
viewers that will be coming out soon I have a lot of ideas but it's very hard
to implement them especially because I still have a day job and I'm still doing
a lot of stuff outside of YouTube January my revenue was only $80 December
again $80 I was very consistent with how much I
uploaded in January in December so that's why the revenue was exactly the
same I think there there's an issue with November but I could honestly estimate
that it was $80 again October $50 so during this time I I was only uploading
one video per week and that video was the Robin Hood challenge videos in
September that is when I started the rapid challenge so you can see that
there has been a lot of growth on the channel since September I've been making
a lot more money each and every month in August my channel was almost dead in
August so only ten dollars in July is fifteen dollars June was $26 I think in
the beginning of the year until the mid of the year like I was gradually slowing
down my uploads in May it's only $40 at most in April 50 in March $80 again and
that's as far as it goes back if I was on my desktop right now I can show you
exactly I could show you a lot more information but this is as much as this
app would give me if you want to see exactly how much money that I'm making
or and want me to get deeper into it leave me a comment in the description
and just let me know that you want to see more of it I want to share some
takeaways about making money on YouTube YouTube Adsense is very difficult to
make living off youtube adsense I cannot live off of $2,500 for the last two
years it's impossible and to grow a channel is
very difficult and it takes a lot of time and a lot of work that's why I
think that a lot of successful youtubers they're actually passionate about making
videos I don't think a lot of people can just pick up a camera and start
recording themselves and make millions of dollars online that's just not gonna
happen that's like a 1 1 in a million chance that will happen so I'm only
focused on what I can do all I can do is just make the best content that I
possibly can and try to get better each time I edit and create these videos I
try to improve my presentation I try to improve my video editing slowly improve
my camera gear my lighting my audio that's the stuff that I can't control I
can't control millions of people to jump onto my channel to to watch my videos
that's something I can do so only focus on what you can do and that's what I've
been doing the past few months so to close out this video I just want to say
thank you to everybody who subscribed almost 9000 subscribers now thanks to
each and every one of you I want to be able to do it without you if you're
