number one the best channel idea for making money on YouTube is. so people are
starting YouTube channels and becoming millionaires more and more often and I
wanted to look into what is the best channel idea you can build your channel
around to make the most money possible YouTube is changing people's lives I
started this channel when I was traveling a bit lost in life and now I'm
living fully off the earnings I generate through this channel and I believe
everyone should be using it so I'm going to look at seven channel ideas that you
may be thinking of starting and I'm writing them in order from worst to best
in terms of what is most likely to make you money so that you can start in the
right direction so channel idea number seven at the bottom of the list is a
Travel YouTube channel when you go out to different countries and you shoot
yourself on location basically showing off the beach you're on or the
rainforests you're hiking through now if you were starting this type of channel
what about ten years ago when there was very little competition it may have been
higher on the list of recommendations but these days everyone is traveling
with a phone and a camera taking pictures of exotic places and it's just
so hard to separate yourself and stand out from the crowd the only way you
really be making money is through the ad revenue that YouTube pays you for the
amount of views that you get on your channel because there's not many other
ways of monetizing this type of YouTube channel best case scenario if you get
really big you may get some free accommodation or some free food but
you're not really gonna be able to earn much money and also you're gonna have to
be forking out a ton of money to pay for all this traveling to pay for the plane
ticket coach rides it's really unlikely that the money you're earning from your
channel is going to cover the costs going out your bank account to cover all
of your traveling so bottom of the list travel and YouTube channel avoid that
like the plague okay so number six on the list the second to worst channel to
start in terms of making money that I can think of is a celebrity of gossip
YouTube channel think about your TMZ's or your Perez Hilton types of channels
where you spend all day reporting on the latest celebrity gossip now the reason
that this channel idea is also so low on it's because there's very few ways that
you can monetize it other than the ad revenue that YouTube will pay for
views you may be able to get quite a few views because you're using celebrity
names YouTube is a search engine so people might be searching for those
celebrity names and find your videos but that's pretty much your only income
opportunity and if you're relying purely on the money of that YouTube pays you by ads you need an average around 500,000 views per week to earn enough to replace
a nine-to-five job and unless you're the small minority that breaks through
becomes a huge success like the TMZ and the Perez Hilton types of
channel it's very unlikely that you're gonna hit those 500,000 views and earn a
respectable amount of money through YouTube with this channel idea so that's
the main reason why I wouldn't recommend starting a celebrity gossip channel if
you're looking to make money on YouTube and the other reason is it's just a bit
hollow isn't it really sitting around looking at other people's lives
who's dating who who said what about who you're not really adding much value to
the world I think there's better things you can be
doing for time so celebrity gossip ranks low on the list okay so moving on
from channels I wouldn't really recommend starting let's move on to
channels that I would recommend starting for making money on YouTube and at
number five is a health and fitness channel now the these channels
potentially get a ton of views what are you doing you're basically showing
people how to exercise how to be healthy and people that usually do this are
usually in super good shape they usually have a lot of skin on show they're tight
revealing exercise outfits so you can get a lot of views on YouTube using this
method which means you're gonna get a lot of money from the advertising
revenue that YouTube pays you but in addition to that there's tons of other
ways that you can monetize a health of fitness channel you can promote fitness
products so weights exercise equipment clothing you can either promote those
products earn a commission all of those brands might pay you outright to make a
dedicated video on their products another way you can make money with this
type of YouTube channel is you can release your own product so you could do
a diet or workout plan either in the shape of like a PDF or an e-book and
sell that to your following you could go one step further
and make a fully dedicated training course you may have seen a lot of
YouTube channels about yoga they give like ten minute yoga workouts but then
you go ahead and pay for their full course to unlock the complete yoga
training plan and you could do the same thing your health or fitness channel so
now we're number five on the list where we decide to see some opportunity to
making money with YouTube the only downside to this is if you're going to
be a health and fitness youtuber you've got to be in like super good shape if
you look at the people at the top of this game they are sculpted to
perfection so if you can maintain that body all year round go ahead and do it
but I'm guessing a lot of people probably can't keep up that same level
of fitness regime so it might not be a good opportunity for you and hey I've put on
a bit of timber recently if you want to see my weight yo-yoing throughout the
year make sure to subscribe to this channel where you can see my weight
going up and down every week okay so the fourth channel idea on the list is the
tech products review and unboxing a type of challenge so here we're thinking
about your Marcus Brownlee your unbox therapy types of YouTube channel people
that review the latest technology and basically say if it's any good or not
and show you what it looks like when you open out of the box these channels get
tons of views because they're keyword heavy you can use the name of the
product so like apple iphone, samsung galaxy and they're trending topic so
when a new product comes out you can sort of capture that hype and get tons
of views on that latest trends there's tons of ways you can monetize it you'll
be getting a lot of views so you'll be earning lots of money from advertising
you'll be able to promote expensive products like cameras phones and earn a
really high commission when those products sell through your channel and
some of these products like Canon Apple will probably sponsor some of your
videos as well pay you outright to make a video purely talking about their
product but the downside to this type of channel is you need a lot of money up
front when you're growing and you're trying to get attention and get a name
for yourself you're going to need a ton of money to buy all of this tech to have
it on camera to review so there's a barrier to entry a little hurdle there
to be able to become a big youtuber in this niche but when you do it can be
really worth it okay so number three on the list within
the top three now the third best YouTube channel idea that we're gonna cover
today is the makeup and beauty and niche now these are videos the ones
teaching people how to put makeup on get an ungodly amount of views if you can crack
the code and become a big issue but in this topic you're gonna be making so
many views that you potentially be making millions of dollars every year
just from your views alone but in addition to the tons of money you'll be
able to make from your views on your channel there's also a ton of other
opportunities to make money so makeup and beauty products that you're
reviewing you'll be able to make Commission if you sell those products
you'll be able to get sponsored for videos from certain Beauty manufacturers
that want their products in front of your viewers eyes okay we've already
talked about those things but in addition to that you'll also be able to
release your own products some of the top beauty youtubers like James Charles
and Tati have released their own makeup line or their own Beauty supplement line
and they're making millions of dollars a year from selling their own products
through that channel and then another income opportunity with a health and
beauty YouTube channel is you'll be able to offer personal coaching some people
might paid to speak to you one-to-one on skype or you know web chat where you can
coach them face to face on how to apply things like makeup and other things like
that and you'll be able to earn a premium level of income from this
one-to-one coaching now I've spoken in a previous video here about how the makeup
niche is one of the highest paying niches that YouTube pays out for per 1000 views
so for every thousand views that you get you should pays you a higher or a lower
amount of money depending on what your videos are about a makeup is really up
there so if you want to learn all about how much you can make per thousand views
go ahead and watch this previous video that I've made on my channel ok so
number 2 on the list the second best of YouTube channel idea for making money
that we're gonna cover today is a sales and marketing YouTube channel now this
is really close to my heart because this is basically what my channel is it's the
type of channel where you're giving sales advice or marketing advice through
the internet now you can make money here the typical ways through advertising
revenue I own $13.50 per 1000 views having a
sales and marketing channel so it's a really lucrative channel in terms of the
amount of money you pays you per view that you get you can also make money by
selling other people's products and making a commission or you can get paid
to do a dedicated video on a product I get about seven to ten emails a week for
this channel from companies offering to pay me to make a video on their products
so there's a lot of appetite in this industry to make sponsored videos you
can also then do the personal coaching helping people succeed with their online
business and you can start your own information products I sell through this
channel a PDF and online book and an online course and they are really good
earners so if there was a marketing channel is free or has a really low cost
to start and get up and running and there's a ton of ways you can make money
with that channel idea and here we are number one the best channel idea for
making money on YouTube is a gaming youtube channel so the reason why gaming
channels have taken number one on this list is for a combination of reasons
first off the crazy amount of views that gaming YouTube channels get gamers love
watching other people play games on YouTube for some reason and you get
hundreds of thousands or millions of views if you do this type of channel
right the second reason is it's pretty much free to start a youtube gaming
channel all you need is a PC which you've probably already got in a game
which you're probably already playing play that game pop onto YouTube job done
and you're potentially gonna get those hundreds of thousands of views I spoke
order let me know you're ordering in the comments below do that in a list form
and if you think I missed any important types of channel from this video let me
