First Sale From Youtube
Last Update: Oct 16, 2018
So, about a month ago I made a Yotube video in my niche to see if it would convert ("best of" video). I just got my first sale (the product cost $150 and I'll make prob $8 from it) from Youtube and it took around 130 views to do so, which is pretty good. This keyword isn't in season yet and it gets most traffic between November to March. I expect to get around 10,000 to 20,000 views with this video.
If you're looking for a different way to make money Youtube could definitely be it. You can do the "best of lists" on Youtube and once you know what you're doing, can make a video a day.
I probably am goign to devote a day a week to make a video for youtube for the next year.
If you want to know more about Youtube I wrote an article here about it:

I know channels that get 10,000,000 views a year doing best of lists and there's nothing really special about them. They use a video editing program that costs about $200 and a $50 microphone. That's all you need.
On ad revenue alone you'd get $30,000 for that many views and that's not including your affiliate sales. If you make a sale every 500 views and the average sale is $5, you'd make an additional $50,000 for a total of $80,000
I have no clue how these videos convert overall but I think I'm being conservative with 1 sale per 500 views.
This is something you can definitely do too.

I am really trying to get myself moving in the Youtube direction too. I was always more of a writer than a speaker, so will have to overcome my fears and just do it. Definitely a good idea to build different sources of income.
Congrats on making the sale from Youtube! As always you're in inspiration :)
Dylan,
I am not sure if I have already asked you these questions. You can make videos in any niche and you will still be good.
Wow that’s great work! Love how you broke down all the potential numbers. Fascinating! Something to think about that’s for sure. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations, Dylan and thanks for sharing!
We are definitely going to do this. We already have a good microphone.
You have excited about this!
Let us know how it goes for you.
Thanks for sharing the potential revenue, too.
Colette and Philip
