There are a lot of video sharing platforms where you can make money from your videos , however, I will go with Youtube.

TikTok Vs. YouTube

Until recently, the primary method of earning on youtube was to run adsense ads on your videos. In order to avoid losing users to TikTok, Youtube introduced youtube shorts, which allowed users to earn by participating on in creators funds, where you don’t have to pass monetization requirements.

Even though TikTok has announced that it will enable ads on longer videos for the content creators to make money, this feature will be available only for the big content creators who have hundreds of thousands follower. However, on Youtube you can earn just from 1000 followers.

Facebook Vs. YouTube

Facebook has $1 billion creator funds but youtube has only 100 million creator’s funds. Therefore, you might earn more from short videos on facebook. However, youtube has additional feature, you can enable advertising and earn from adsense.

YouTube is undoubtably one of the best video platforms if not the best video platform whereby you can make some good amount of money for yourself. There are a lot of things that makes me to prefer making videos on YouTube to other platforms like Facebook and TiK ToK. One of it is that in tik-tok you actually require a lot of followers for you to be able to make money but on YouTube with 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours you can start making money from your videos which is quite very cool.

Even though, it may be very hard to get the subscribers and watch hours but with proper knowledge and understanding of how some certain things works you can actually do it a lot easier. Like I would always St, there is someone that taught me affiliate marketing some time ago.

He was able to monetize his YouTube channel within a month. This may seem as if it is not true but actually it is true. You need to know how to do keyword research and do it on your videos in order to attract a lot of traffic. You can also go to forums and opt to teach people about making money online and you can get them to subscribe to your channel and watch your videos in order to be monetized faster.

It is true that youtube is one of the best platforms to make money online if you are a video content creator. However, there are also other platforms as good as youtube. In fact, the monopoly of youtube as the video-sharing platform and money-making platform has been broken by a lot of platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc. Furthermore, why should you only depend on youtube to make money from your videos, why not use other platforms as well. In fact, you can share the same video across multiple platforms and make money from the same video (provided you are not using watermark videos. Actually, youtube is a saturated platform, it is very difficult to make money on youtube if you are a newbie. Therefore, other platforms might be better. For instance, Facebook video feature is a recent addition, it also offer more money in the creator funds, which means you have better chances of earning from Facebook compared to youtube. Youtube does not have a gift option, however, Facebook and TikTok both have a gift options, therefore, you might earn even when you do not have tons of views on your videos. Youtube is good but why should you depend only on youtube.

Indeed you have the point because you have made the better choice. YouTube is master platform for videos and this is without a doubt, although there are so many platforms and websites that a person can make video and earn money from it. Some of these websites even allow you to sell your videos and get money from your buyers but YouTube will not do that. YouTube pays you by itself but you still benefit from your videos.

Aside making videos on YouTube and receiving money from YouTube, you are also allow to market your product on YouTube through your videos. This is the reason why many people like posting videos on YouTube than any other platform of making money by sharing videos. Many people go to YouTube to learn things and some people also go to YouTube to teach new things. YouTube is a big platform and it is also a large community.

If you're looking for financial freedom, YouTube has become the platform of choice for many YouTubers. And with this power comes opportunity. Years ago, it would be crazy to start making videos or uploads because so few people could do it professionally. But YouTube has now become an essential part of almost every single company's marketing strategy, and that means monetization is a lot easier to come by than ever before.

The truth is, the best way to make money on YouTube is to produce quality content that your audience enjoys. By creating content that people genuinely love, you're giving them a reason to come back and watch consistently. And for many of us who have made money from YouTube over the years, it hasn't been too hard to do this.

There are all kinds of ways you can monetize videos on YouTube. The most traditional method is to use ads and sell space in your video. It's something we've seen used by companies like Coca-Cola for decades, but today it's easy enough for everyone else as well. You can also do sponsored videos (more on this after we talk about income).

Youtube is a great platform to start. Of course, it has a very big community and it's hard to get even your first subscriber, but if you really want to and you spend at least an hour making those videos, you can get a decent number of views. I'm not a professional or anything like that, but I want to give you a small tip if you ever think about creating your own content. The thing is, if you spend hours making your first YouTube video, you're likely not to care about thumbnails. So I suggest you make the thumbnail first and then the video. This could get you extra views and help you grow your YT channel. If you are serious about YOTUBE, you can even make a full-time income. Of course, that will require a lot of effort, but as you can see, there are many YOTUBE creators that make a full-time income. That could be risky and things like that, but you know, no risk, no gain.
