How Much YouTube Paid Me for My Tiny House Video

Because I've done a few videos where I speak about my house, the finances involved and also the ways myself and others have made money online/through social media, I thought it would be 'on brand' to make a follow up video where I reveal how much youtube paid me for my tiny house video. like I said, this isn't intended to be a boastful or big headed video, it's just something I'm interested in and is something that people have shown interest in, in the past. if people don't like me speaking about this kind of thing any more, then I'll totally understand avoid it in the future.

    Actually, we, the great unfilmed, enjoy these glimpses behind the potential earnings of KZread. A lot of people have turned this unlikely method of employment into very successful businesses. Whether KZread replaces someone's full-time job or perhaps acts as a retirement gap filler. It is good information for someone trying to determine if KZread is a platform with potential for success. I have found some channels owned by people who may never have been successful in a "normal" job but have totally rocked it on KZread.

    Another KZreadr made a similar explanation video last year, and he was a Welsh studio musician doing videos on that subject. If I recall he was getting £1.50 per 1000 views or something. A lot of it was dependant on which advertising was clicked on by viewers, so maybe house related ads generate more money than music ones?

    The other day I was setting up computer and ran browser without any extra addons. I was shocked how unusable it is. Adverts popping out from everywhere. Newspaper site covered with flashy moving objects making in impossible to focus on a text (forget reading with comprehension). Watching YT videos is pain - constant interruption of an advert. Luckily there are adblockers and other ways to block these. People forget (or actually don't know) that on social media(s) we are the product. You're correct - that's why there are so many influencers wannabies out there. But of course there are also many great people with sick talent out there too.

For one it really details the difference between the income a viral video (which is unpredictable and shouldn't be counted on) can bring, and the income a normal video for a relatively popular KZread video can bring. It lets people know roughly how much to expect if you intend to become a professional KZreadr and as such how often you will need to produce content worthy of watching if you intend to make a livable income.

    It's a great insight and motivator and of course this profession is a very competitive business and also dependant on the algorithm and channel support / random drive by visitors etc. The youtube video is one thing as it involves an insane amount of work to look professional, and then there is the actual preparation of the content and associated costs plus the actual labour. Therefore, assuming its run as a business, or at least followed business practices, an overview of what we would call management accounts would give a real sense of the actual revenues involved. To be honest, the £46k sounds amazing, but in reality after deducting taxes, expenses and cost of production etc the earnings are relative. Still, it would feel so great to get such a deposit into ones bank account for all ones hard work so I really agree with you it is mind blowing, especially if you can churn out content like this with the associated views for at least five times in the year :)

    Exactly! I guess if you are putting this 'mystery layer' on something being constantly promoted as supposedly being profane like money it keeps on being unreachable for you and me. Love this video for example, let's talk money! Sooner or later it will come out how much of an insane amount of profit youtube is making (and maybe milking content providers?).

    I admit I have seen your tiny house renovation video pop up on my screen but I never watched it. I discovered your channel after you adopted Junior - what a sweet kitty! I admired how thoughtful you were about her care and I like the calm sound of your voice. The accent doesn’t hurt either :-) as I am from Canada and, to me, your burr is lovely to hear. It intrigued me enough to check out more of your channel. As for the money discussion question, I knew that “KZreadrs”/“influencers” earned money from sponsors, but until I watched this I didn’t know you earned money for views too - very informative. Like anything in media, if someone is offended at content they always have the option of changing the channel. Yes, there will be people who think talking about money is crass, but I think you handled the topic very factually, with thankfulness for your audience’s time. I appreciated the information myself. Learn something new every day. I only subscribe to two channels, but I am going to add yours as my third. Thank you.
