Making money online is no more as hard as it's in early 2000 ,all you require is your ability to pay attention and work hard.
Because anyone who is still oblivious to the changes observed on the internet in this 21st century is probably living under the rock in a forbidden forest.
Gone are those days when no one could earn good cash without working in a reputable firm. In fact, working in a reputable firm is never a passport to a good, mouth-watering renumeration; one needs to attain a prestigious position in any organization to be able to earn enough money which will make one’s family proud of him or her.
To make money in this century, you don’t need a university degree. All that is needed is nothing but a laptop. That electronic device alone can be more or less an office location and also act as a company for anyone willing to smile to the bank.
Notably, laptop is overrated. A mobile phone, of any Android version, is enough to change anyone’s lifestyle and income level. Several people who never thought they could rub shoulders with the high and mighty are now doing so because an Android phone gave them the opportunity.
Regardless of age, the internet has become a playground for all as we’ve seen over the years young dude who built mansions for their parents while they are still in school.
The moment the internet evolved to a videocentric medium, people all over the world started making videos that were monetized by YouTube partnership which pays their content producers lots of cash for their efforts based on the number of views garnered on their posted videos.
To join this large workforce, all you need is a good phone with high resolution camera which will help you record quality videos.
As long as your video content is entertaining, you will garner a lot of views which is the count that determines the amount you make via Youtube partnership. It is more or less like saying the more views you have; the more money you make.
It sounds so easy but not as easy as you think. Every online business comes with its own challenges. As a YouTuber, you are not immune to the challenges in this money making niche.
What exactly are these challenges?
This is never to scare you off this online opportunity that has made many millionaires out of trenches in underdeveloped nations of the world.
First, after creating a YouTube account and a channel on the YouTube App, you need 1,000 subscribers on your channel with more than 4,000 views. In other words, your entertaining videos are not enough to make you a millionaire. You need to know and understand traffic generation methods through which you will get the number of views that will qualify you for the partnership program.
Before we start considering means of drawing people — not bot traffic which is detestable — to your videos, you need to understand that Social media (Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok etc) and instant messengers (WhatsApp and Facebook messenger) are first in line.
Never you joke with your social media account. You need to dig your well before you are tasty, so to write.
How do I mean?
It is not when you start YouTube partnership program that you start working on your social media accounts, likes of Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok amongst others.
All these your social media accounts must have posts with high engagement, that is… good number of comments, likes and shares.
Engaging on the posts of others and building great relationship with your 5,000 friends on Facebook is enough to get their attention to the things you do on your Facebook home and other App on the internet.
As long as your Facebook account is active, your starting point of millions-worth YouTube channel will be so easy that it will seem as if you’ve been an online celebrity for years.
The moment you start posting exciting, educative and entertaining videos on YouTube, the moment you need to start sharing it to your Social media accounts. You never can tell which of your videos may have a viral effect. One viral video can turn you to an overnight millionaire.
As you do that, the number of your video views will begin to increase.
That strategy alone is enough to make you hit the registration milestone of 4,000 views. In case your social media accounts are not that active to bring about such result, what you need is a forum.
Although forums are fast losing their relevance to online groups on Facebook, some of them are still rocking several corners of the world.
Any forum with more than enough engagement will do. In Nigeria, of course, no forum is as engaging as Nairaland.
On that forum, post exciting news and articles from reputable sources day and night and comment on interesting posts on the forum too. As you do so, you will begin to gain the attention o forum moderators.
After a week, you can start posting attention-grabbing contents and add your own YouTube-uploaded videos to the post. Assuredly, some of your posts will not draw the attention of the moderators while some will land you a front page appearance, which will in turn give you a lot of YouTube views without the forum members visiting your YouTube channel, in person.
Mind you, if you don’t use a strong CTA, call to action, on your videos, you won’t quickly get the 1,000 subscribers you need. Surprisingly, you can have over 20,000 views on your videos without having a commensurate number of subscribers.
Based on past research, people only do what they are being told to do. Psychologically, netizens don’t respond to things without being instructed to. As human beings are very predictable, you can harness such psychological discovery to get your desired number of YouTube channel subscribers.
In every of your video, ensure you have a permanent on-screen bold font statement which tells your viewers to subscribe for more entertaining, educative and exciting contents of yours.
As soon as you meet-up the YouTube partnership criteria, go ahead and visit the partnership program homepage via your channel to make your interest known. Thereafter, in few weeks, you will receive a mail that will begin your long-desired journey.
