YouTube views are worth approximately US$2,000 for 1 million views and Youtube will take 45% of that revenue, then you will pay income tax on that. That is considered the minimum
Stefan Drury 84,000 subscribers, 10.5m total channel views since it was created = TOTAL channel income starting at AUD $16,500, less tax (it varies widely, but you can bank on somewhere around that much or more)
Mentour Pilot 642,00 subscribers, 82m total channel views = Total income starting from US $136k gross.
Ninja Kids TV 10m subscribers, 4.5B views - do your numbers on that! Net channel worth is US $11m!
Steveo1Kinevo - 429,000 subscribers, 58m views = Total income starting from AUS $67,000 after tax....
+ any endorsements.
Some of those channels have been running for a long time to get to this point, so as you can see, it's certainly not all roses as those are the TOTAL channel income, not annual!
