lot to do on YouTube.

How
to become a YouTuber: Essential skills you need
While it
may sound easy to become an overnight sensation on YouTube, building a
YouTube career really pays off. Contrary
to what many think, working on YouTube
is not easy or simple. This is because
with over 500 hours of video uploaded every minute, you can't expect your
channel to stand out and get a lot of
views.
Here are some of the skills you need to be a
successful YouTuber:
1.
Extraordinary
thinking
YouTube videos are all about
content. After all, video is a very suitable medium for creative expression.
That's why you always need to find new and unique content to attract more
attention and gain customers. Hotspots
right behind the platform make your
video disappear in the crowd. When you offer
something unique to your audience and create original video content, it
will make them curious and get clicks to your YouTube videos
2.
Content
Research
You also need the right content research skills to make your content ideas
engaging. The more familiar you are with your content, the more viewers will
join your channel. In turn, this will help you grow your channel faster.
Good search terms can show your
viewers that you take your YouTube channel seriously and make it worth
subscribing. High subscriptions and engagement are essential for good
performance on YouTube.
3.
Video
Editing Skills
You need basic video editing skills unless you
are willing and can't afford a video editor. You can impress people with good
video editing. Whether you're creating daily vlogs or training videos, proper
editing skills are essential to creating professional, quality video content.
Don't worry. You can rely on video editing tools to help you
edit videos without stress. Most of them
provide a simple user interface and simple functions, you can use and work easily even if you have no
previous video editing experience.
4.
Understand
the youtube platform well,
You need to understand how YouTube works (including the mysterious YouTube
"algorithm") and what types of videos YouTube users like and how they
do it. Make sure you carefully read and understand the instructions on YouTube.
How to become a
YouTuber:
A 7-step guide
Here's the step-by-step process of
becoming a YouTuber:
1.
Choose a
Niche
Niche is a special part of a larger product.
For example, if you want to start a YouTube channel about vegan recipes,
consider how you can turn it into something special like fat-free vegan
recipes, different sweet vegan recipes, or
just vegan recipes.
2.
Know Your
Audience
Before you create real content, you
need to have a deep understanding of who you're creating for.
First answer these questions:
Who are my subjects? How old are they?
What do they like to do Episode
What do they do Why do they watch
my videos? Get / find out what they will
do Episode When are they most active on YouTube?
Answering these questions will help you build a personality for
your audience. This person will guide
you to create the most important content for them.
3.
Purpose
What is the purpose behind your
YouTube videos? Do you want to be famous? Want to serve a specific audience? Or
do you want to create a personal brand to sell products or services? Whatever the purpose, it must be clear from the start.
4.
Content
strategy
Once you've identified your niche, audience,
and goals, it's time to set up a content strategy. One of the hardest parts of
following YouTube is coming up with new
ideas.
5.
Arrangement
of Content
Suggesting content is not enough.
You still need a good idea and you plan to do it. Make a plan to publish this week's or month's
YouTube content. This way you will be prepared and be able to stay on top of
everything. This also gives you time to
focus on other aspects of building your YouTube audience, such as promoting it
on social media.
6.
SEO
Just recording a video and posting it on
YouTube is not enough. You also need to optimize your videos to be in front of
your target audience. The following
areas need SEO or keyword optimization:
Video filename Video title Video description Video tags, etc.
7.
Introduction
Now that your video is ready and live, it's
time to introduce it. Don't be shy Promote your video anywhere - take advantage
of social media (what works for your audience) or even try email marketing.

How to make money as a YouTuber?
Making money is probably not the main reason you should start a YouTube
channel. Here are some ways to make
money as a YouTuber:
1.
Sign up as
a YouTube partner
As a YouTube Partner, you can
monetize your YouTube channel and
monetize the ads that appear on your videos. But you can only do this when you
have 1,000 users and 4,000 watch hours per year.
One thing you need to know about
monetization is that the viewer must watch or click on an ad for a minimum
amount of time to earn money. How does YouTube pay you?
There are many factors that affect this, but
YouTube affiliates are estimated to average $3-5 per 1,000 video views. This
means you must have millions of viewers
to generate full-time income!
2.
Working
with Brands as Influencers
If you already have a large number of
followers on other social networks, it will be easier for you to build an
audience on YouTube and become the most influencer in the short run.
You can work with or sponsor brands to promote their products
or services. You can review their products, organize giveaways, or get paid
just for mentioning products and brands in your videos, or even get free items
from the mod.
3.
Marketing
You can
use YouTube to promote your own products or services, or you can jointly
use it to promote other people's products. These platforms will help you make
your business known and expand your reach.
You can create product videos, post customer
reviews, or upload videos to sell products on YouTube. The key here is to reach
a wider audience and help them get to know your brand better.
4.
Crowdfunding
for your channel and other activities
Being a YouTuber also gives you time to crowdfund your channel and other
activities. This means that people will donate to you once or twice a month so
you can continue creating content or completing a particular project. Many successful fundraising events have
promotional videos that get people excited to support the project. The
promotional video is also a great way to share your ideas.
You can use it for free for viewers
or customers.
Always remember to mention why your
project is worth supporting and what donors can get with their money. Being a YouTuber Being a YouTuber is now the dream job of many
young people.
If you're one of them, know that creating a
YouTube channel takes time and patience. Hands-on work is helpful in creating
content and managing a YouTube channel. Even if you decide you don't want to
work full time at YouTube, it may still be a side job for you.
How to Become a YouTuber and Get Paid: Tips for 2023
Here are the methods you can
add.
1.
Decide on
your field Saying you want to be a
Youtuber is like saying you want to be a scientist (even if your family is
interested in one of the others). The first thing you need to decide: Where?
Among them are Makeup Youtubers, Family Youtubers, Unboxing Youtubers, Knitting
Youtubers, TV Summary Youtubers, Scientist Youtubers (Next, Mom and Dad).
If you can think of it, there is a
niche. Niche is an area of expertise
and narrowing your area of expertise will help you identify your target
audience and make it easier for you to find content. One of the best ways to choose a niche is to
think about what you like - you'll want to create content you like. This should
be fun!
2.
Define your
"why" I hope you become a
Youtuber not because you love your voice - that's what podcasts are for.
Identifying the purpose of your video or its value to viewers is an important
first step.
The answer to
"Why" question or determining what your Youtube channel will be profitable isn't necessarily profitable in
a good sense. Of course, there are lots of ads for professionals, product
reviews, how-to videos, tutorials, and other "causes." But your
"why" can make people laugh.
Outside of YouTube, we have Bad Lip Reading, a
channel that says bad words about NFL games, Broadway productions, American
politics, and more. From where? Because it's fun.
3.
Know Your
Audience
You probably won't get thousands of YouTube subscribers or millions of
views overnight. But no matter how big your audience is, it's important to
understand who you're creating the
videos for and what type of content they like.
Ask yourself: Who will watch my video? How old
are they? What day did they watch the
video? Why should we care about them? What can you get by watching them? Questions like help you build what's called an audience.
Audiences are the people you create that represent the characteristics of your
ideal audience.
4.
Know Your
Competitors
Who Are Your Competitors? Or put it to war: who can you learn? Control your competitors - others create the
same or similar to you and are inspired
by their ideas. They can be used
similarly: Video effects (eg setting ,
animation) but with names, presentation
style etc.
5. Create a YouTube Channel
Didn't you skip ahead to this section and read the first four
steps? be fair. You are only criticizing yourself. Finding your niche, defining
your 'why', knowing your target audience and knowing your competition are the
keys to effective communication. there!
First you will need: Channel Name
Logo Header Image (preferably
2560 × 1440 pixels) Color Scheme You can use these resources to create your
YouTube channel page by following this simple step. (Shhh - this is just a
simple overview: use this guide for more detailed instructions).
Create a Google Account YouTube is owned by Google, so you need a
Google Account to get a YouTube Account. If you don't already have a Google
account, go to Google and enter some basic details. Create your Google account Create a YouTube account Your Google Account package includes a
YouTube account. But you still need to set up the channel. Just enter your channel name to enter.
Create a channel on your YouTube account
page Edit your channel page You can edit many aspects of your channel
page, including your name, logo, page title, and related information. Complete your channel description Use a consistent brand Add a logo or a good avatar Add contact information
6.
Good
camera, lighting and editing software
You don't need to buy expensive equipment to
be a good Youtuber: most of the time, it will be enough to shoot videos with
your smartphone. But if you're considering working outside of content, know that it's important. Good videos are more visible, professional and profitable
than bad ones. If your viewers see that you're connected to your channel,
they're more likely to spend time (and possibly money) on you.
Get the best camera and lighting with what you've got: this could mean buying
a high-tech camera and investing in
lighting, or shooting with an iPhone near windows (natural light is nice and
cheap).
7.
Decide on
the video style Long-term marketing
cooperation for Youtube or social media.
The choice of color palette, font, intro music, background and other creative elements for your graphics should be taken seriously. It's all about the recognition type. Best of all, your viewers will instantly know that the video is yours.
8. CTAs (Calls to Action) Use calls to action to encourage users to do
something specific, such as liking, following, and subscribing to your
channel. Encourage viewers to watch your content by adding a
call to action (CTA) to your videos.
Here's how you can do it: add a CTA to video captions use features like playlists for playback add cards and end screens to videos
add links to other popular content in each video description play titles, cards, and end screens for more YouTube features, but easy to learn
8.
Create
content
You may not be famous, but posting
content regularly is one of the best ways to build an audience. Regularity can
mean daily, weekly or monthly: whatever works best for you, your content, and
your customers. Regular sharing is
easier when you use a calendar to plan
and organize your videos.
Content Checklist to make sure you have a plan
to follow and can be productive and focused once you have an overview of your
content output. Plus, being able to see (and show your boss) all your posts and videos scheduled in a neat calendar
is really fun!
9.
Follow
Youtube Analytics
Yes, it's important to find your
niche and maintain consistency. You want
viewers to know some expectations while watching your channel. However, don't
be afraid to take risks and watch for results.
Try different videos, lengths and
methods that fit your niche and pay attention to your Youtube analysis.
Analytics will give you insight
into the success of each video. If one of your videos is doing well, research
it and do something similar.
10.
Plan Videos
First Remember the audience role we talked about earlier? If you know who your viewers are, you can tell when they are searching for online content - what day of the week and what day.
11.
Promote
your channel
On
other social media platforms
Youtubers don't just use Youtube - in fact, 99% of Youtubers are on other social media platforms as well. 79%
of youtubers use Facebook and 78% use Instagram.
This means that both Facebook and
Instagram are the best places to advertise your YouTube channel as part of your
overall YouTube marketing.
12.
Connect
with your audience
Like any other social media, YouTube is important for engagement. That's
why once you start adding content to your channel, you need to have a plan to
keep track of comments. As your channel
grows, you may find that you need some help managing all the messages you receive.
13.
Join the
YouTube Partner Program
The YouTube Partner Program shows how YouTube users access exclusive features of the platform. You don't need to be a partner to make money on YouTube (just create an AdSense account and get enough views for it), but being a partner makes things a lot easier.
YouTube Members can earn a lot of money: not just video ads, but YouTube premium subscription and features like Super Chat, Channel Membership, and Product Sales of products that go straight to loyal fans' wallets. Here's how to join the program while your channel is running.
Note: You must have at least 1,000 subscribers
and 4,000 views in the last 12 months to participate in the program.
Step 1: Create an AdSense Account

AdSense account instructions.
Step 2: Explore New Financing
Capabilities Every funding source has
different requirements. Example: Ad Revenue: You must be at least 18 years old
and create ad content to receive ad
revenue. Basically, the more controversial your video is, the more willing
YouTubers will be to post it and the more money you make.
YouTube Premium Earnings: If YouTube Premium members watch your video,
you will receive a portion of the subscription fees. (This is automatic, that's fine.)

memberships to your customers (i.e. your fans choose to pay you more), you must
be at least 18 years old and have more than 30,000 users.

Frequently Asked
Questions
1.)
How do
YouTubers get paid?
When you become a YouTuber and join the
YouTube Partner Program, you can get paid in a number of ways. The best way to make money is advertising,
pay-per-view.
However, YouTubers only pay if viewers watch
the post for at least 30 seconds. Only about 15% of people watch the desired 30
seconds. With these numbers in mind, most YouTubers can earn $3 to $5 per 1,000
views, depending on the channel's RPM.
RPM is the money your channel earns per 1,000 views. Everything is relative and depends on what AdSense
considers your channel worth.
Some very popular YouTubers with millions of
followers can earn as much as $30 per 1,000 views. There are many factors that
can affect your RPM, including your
niche marketing channel and country of origin.
2.)
How many
views do you need on YouTube to make money?
You have become a YouTuber, accepted into the
YouTube Partner Program and created an AdSense account. So when can you get
your first paycheck? AdSense will not
pay you until your balance reaches $100. If your channel earns an average of $4
per 1,000 views, that means you need around 25,000 views to reach $100.
3.)
How do new
YouTubers make money?
If you want to learn how to become
a profitable YouTuber, the first step is to join the YouTube Partner Program.
You won't be able to earn a penny from your videos until your channel is in the
YouTube Partner Program. For this, you need to have watched 4,000 hours in the last 12 months and have at least
1,000 users. Your channel must also
comply with YouTube's Community Guidelines and YouTube's Financial
Policies.
Once your channel reaches this milestone, you will need to sign up for an
AdSense account. Your channel is now
ready to monetize. However, being a YouTuber with an interesting follower base
takes a long time to cut through your day job.
4.)
What does a
new YouTuber need?
NEW YouTubers don't need to spend a
lot of money to start making their first few videos. Today, you can shoot
amazing videos using just your phone.
However, we recommend that you do not rely on your phone's microphone. There
are some great microphones out there, and they're inexpensive. The last thing a beginner needs to become a
YouTuber is a YouTube video editor.
5.)
Is there a
monthly fee for YouTube?
Yes, YouTube pays its creators
monthly via direct deposit or check. However,
AdSense only pays when your balance reaches $100, so you may have to wait a few
months to reach this goal.
6.) How much does YouTube pay for
1,000 views?
YouTubers can change how much they can earn
per 1,000 views. The niche need of the advertiser depends on many factors, such
as the type of ad, audience and location
of the audience. On average, YouTubers earn between $0.25 and $4 for 1,000
views.
However, some YouTubers will earn
more, while others will earn less.
It's important to note that YouTube cuts 45% of its ad revenue, so YouTubers actually earn less than total revenue. Additionally, YouTubers can earn money through endorsements, sales, and other revenue streams.
I HOPE THAT THIS ARTICLE HAS GIVEN YOU, ALL THE CONFIDENCE THAT YOU NEED TO START A YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND CHANGE YOUR DESTINY…
