How to Grow Your Youtube Channel and Make Money
If you search on youtube about how to grow your channel fast, how to start making money on youtube fast, how to make money easily on youtube, and other similar search terms, you will see a lot of YouTubers are suggesting that you copy-paste successful popular videos (if they have a creative commons license), create videos on a trending topic, create videos similar to the high traffic vides, etc. However, I do not think these are sustainable methods. If you want to grow on youtube you should be creative, you should be very good at video making, and you should create general interest content. If you use sustainable methods to grow your channel, you will one day grow really big. Never look for shortcut methods to success. If you want to use youtube to make money, learn everything about youtube (how the algorithm works, how traffic works, etc.) and try genuine methods.
How to Start Making Money on Youtube Super Fast
Be very consistent in publishing videos. In the beginning, when you do not have any videos to show on your channel, try to publish at least 2 videos every week, or even 3 videos in a week consistently for a couple of months. Then you can trim it down to one video a week.
Create Searchable content: When you have no subscribers, on viewers, they only want to get views is to make sure your content topic is searched on youtube and your content appears on the top search results.
Stay on the niche: Don’t pretend to know everything and help everyone. Even if you know a lot of things, stay true to one niche and create content on that niche. Youtube tries to put the content among the people who are interested in a particular niche. If your talk about a lot of things in your videos, it is difficult to determine who your audiences are. You can start creating content on other topics, once you have grown your “tribe” or “community”.
YouTube Monetization Tricks That Work in 2022
Well, you don’t need to get monetized if you want to earn from youtube shorts, but you cannot make a lot of money with youtube shorts. Therefore, it makes sense to monetize your channel by reaching 1k subscribers and 4k hours of watch time. Interestingly, you can use youtube shorts to build followers and views on your channel and reach the monetization threshold faster. Interestingly, it has been extremely easier to get monetized now compared to 1-2 years ago.

How to Earn More From Short Videos on Youtube
The easiest way to make videos for youtube is by creating short videos. However, short videos do not pay much, compared to regular-length videos. Short videos are generally under 60 seconds. If you create a video of 61 seconds, it will not be counted as youtube shorts, thus, you are eligible to earn from ad revenue. By creating videos that are a little bit longer than youtube shorts, you will be able to earn from your short videos in multiple ways such as Adsense, amazon affiliate marketing, sponsorship, merch selling, etc.
First of all, people are interested in short videos because they don’t require a long attention span.
Secondly, short videos are to the point and people d not have to waste time to get the information or even entertainment.
Thirdly, short videos get better views compared to medium or long videos.
Fourthly, creating short videos is rather easy, you don’t need to shoot, show yourself, or talk. You can create a storyboard with pictures, texts, or video footage.
How to Make Your Youtube Shorts Go Viral
Spend more time on content: Instead of refining your video with visuals, editing, etc. spend more time refining content and creating a good title
The actual volume of content: On social media, the more content you create better you will become, it is just like how sportspeople do on the field. Try to publish at least one short video every day. Creating more content means your short videos are appearing more on the feed. The higher amount of content you have better will be your video in terms of content quality and the video quality. You should be consistent in publishing content as well.
