I’ll be the first to admit that “YouTubers” are kind of a mysterious crowd.
We watch the videos of people with thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even millions of subscribers, but often… that’s just about all we know about them: that they’re popular online.
What their “real life,” business, and success (or lack thereof) isn’t able to be determined from watching their videos.
In short, we have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes.
And, of course… that’s okay. There’s no reason anyone should feel obligated to share the details of their private life.
But… it does leave room for a LOT of curiosity. Allow me to shed a little light on the subject. 💡
Now that I’m finally on the other side of the mystery, I have the FACTS about what YouTube actually pays.
And I must say… I’m pleasantly surprised.
