What is Youtube?

First of all, I suppose you all know it already because you will have entered to watch any video. Youtube is a platform created in 2005 by 3 former Paypal employees in order to be a dating page, but in 2006, Google bought it and is used to upload it to see different videos: Entertainment, video clips, tutorials, educational videos, etc. 

What is a Youtuber?

It is a person who is dedicated to record and upload videos to the platform consistently and earn money for it.

Can you live on Youtube?

The answer is yes, although not everyone gets it, since it needs a lot of effort and constancy. According to the Youtuber "Luzu Vlogs": "The key is to connect with people and to be represented. It is also about creating quality content that generates interest. The first thing is to do things well; The money comes later. "That is, people try to feel identified with that person through the screen and to feel as if they are with a friend during the minutes of the video. Once that is achieved, it is when you start to get money.

How has it happened for some of being a hobby to a job?

At first, people used it as a hobby to share videos with people without making a profit for it, until 2007, Youtube began to introduce advertising ads as we can see before starting a video, banners that go next, etc. . In this way, against more visits with advertising have a video and more clicks do on them, more money is charged although the price is not always the same. (1,000 visits = € 1). Thus, brands take advantage of advertising, and at the same time, the person who uploads the video, makes money.

Collaborations with brands on Youtube

Collaborations is another way to generate more money thanks to Youtube. It is that a brand gets in touch with the Youtuber either to send you a free product and to advertise it on your channel or sending the product and also paying for it. Thus, by teaching it in your videos, you can get more people to know so that they buy it. (For exemple, makeup, clothes, applications ...) There are also other ways you can participate such as making commercials, TV, magazines, books, etc.

In conclusion, uploading videos to the Internet is not as easy as it seems, and many people do not value all the work behind it, such as preparing new ideas, buying what is needed, investing in material to record, time spent recording The video, the hours to edit it ... Therefore, it is a job like any other that requires a lot of effort and time if you want to get to get a monthly salary.
