4. Crowdfunding

It’s feasible to earn project-based or consistent income leveraging crowdfunding via YouTube. It depends solely on what the crowdfunded donors receive in exchange and the topic of your YouTube channel. For instance, you could come up with special topics or improve your productivity value using crowdfunded funds.

Typically, owners of YouTube channels offer a variety of rewards based on the contribution level. Some incentives YouTube channel owners offer include a mention (shout-out) in YouTube videos or anything more appreciable for more funds contributed.

You can earn crowdfunded income on a project-based model, in which specialized series or videos needing more appreciable, created investment are funded by people, or on a recurring, membership or subscription model.

5. Affiliate Marketing

If you do not have a personal service or product that you offer to the people, you have no problem at all! On YouTube, you’re able to market other people’s services and products via affiliate marketing. To be prominent, you need to set up a channel around a target industry and then find affiliate services and products that will help solve your specific industry’s problems in that specialty.

For instance, you can set up a healthy cooking YouTube channel and look for quality cooking equipment via companies offering cooking supplies or Amazon’s associate program.

Embed the links to the products you’re promoting in your description. You aren’t expected to include any required disclaimer regarding the affiliate links.

Alongside sharing the resources and tools you utilize, you can leverage YouTube as well to market affiliate products by doing exhibitions and reviews.
