6 RICHEST YOUTUBERS IN INDONESIA
Why Youtubers are very rich?
Earning money today doesn’t need to be sitting from 9 to 5 at the office, wearing formal outfits, and things like that. Millennials, where they seem bored with the rigid rules, come up with the idea to work digitally and set them free. Millennials are narcissistic; they are super confident in storytelling their daily activities, showing their mood-swing, like happy at the first time, then suddenly delivering their sadness excessively, just like XX did a few years ago.
In a flash, they look like they are just playing around. But their deposit accounts are flooded with tons of dollars from AdSense. When parents hope to work in banking, become doctors or engineers, millennials even buy a new house for their parents at a very young age through their pay-check to become YouTubers.
How do YouTubers get paid?
First, welcome to the 4.0 new era. YouTubers that get paid through the Partner Program earn income based on views of YouTube videos. These are hosted through Google AdSense. So it would be best if you started by signing up for an AdSense account. From there, you need to create a YouTube account and work to hit over 10,000-lifetime views. Then apply for the YouTube Partner Program, and the company will review your content to make sure it fits the creator policies.
Once your application is approved, payments are issued through your AdSense account. Once you accumulate at least $100, you can transfer it to your account. The amount you earn is determined based on how your audience engages with video ads. There are various advertising formats. So some advertisers pay per click, and others pay per view. Overall, the more people watch ads on your channel, the more you’re likely to earn.
Some YouTubers earn money through other revenue streams. For example, they may include affiliate links in their descriptions, text ads in videos, working with sponsors directly, or selling merchandise.
If you plan to be a YouTuber, perhaps these richest YouTubers from Indonesia can be your inspiration.
