The key to earning from youtube is to build traffic. Before you start building traffic on your channel you should understand what type of traffic you are getting, and where your traffic is coming from.
You have basically two types of traffic: internal traffic and external traffic.
External traffic is traffic coming from other sources such as Google search, Facebook, Twitter, blogs, websites, etc.
Internal traffic is the traffic that originates within youtube.
