How to make money on youtube?

YouTube is a platform that creators can use to share ideas and make a living. To succeed, it is important to start a channel and choose a username that is easy and memorable. If the current username is not working, you can change it on your Google+ account and add keywords connected to your content in the Advanced section of your channel. The most important details are to work on your content and upload it regularly, upgrade your content, post videos regularly, monetize your content, have a steady audience, share your videos in social media, and interact with your viewers. To make real money, you need at least 4000 hours of watch time and 1000 followers to make real money.
