Here’s How Much Money We Earned From 1.3 Million YouTube Views
It’s less than you think (and took a lot longer than we expected)
Don’t start a YouTube channel if your only goal is to make money.
It’s not worth it.
Even with a semi-viral video (our most popular video has around 750,000 views), the ad revenue isn’t enough to let you quit your job and make videos full-time. At least not for a while.
But that doesn’t mean YouTube is a waste of time. Far from it.
In this article, I’m going to share how much ad revenue we’ve earned in the past two years from our YouTube channel — Days We Spend — and what monetizing a YouTube channel actually looks like so you can decide if starting a YouTube channel is the right move for you.
Because, spoiler alert — starting a YouTube channel is 100% worth the effort — even if you don’t earn much money.
So let’s dive in.
Here’s how much money we’ve earned from a YouTube channel with 1.3 million views and why we’re excited to keep making videos in 2024.
