Even though there are places in the world where people still do not have access to the internet, we can easily say that the majority of the population around the world knows and consumes content on YouTube.

Even with so many consumers and users of the platform, many do not know/cannot say what YouTube is, including the content creators themselves.

It's simple, Youtube is a platform belonging to one of the largest companies in the world in terms of communication and content, which is Google, where content is transformed from text to videos, a video platform, where some consume and others create.

We've already started talking about the company and the company has what? A company has employees and this already makes the profession worthy of acceptance.

And we need to show how serious and difficult this job is, which involves a lot of research, perseverance and commitment (like all jobs).

In a nutshell my dear writers/readers that's what YouTube is, in the eyes of some it's easy money, but whoever is creating on the platform knows that it's not like that, in addition to being automated with algorithms there are people analyzing everything behind of everything and it is very difficult to convince these analysts, here on Medium we would say that they are the curators.

We need to look at content creators as we look at a banker, a firefighter, a police officer, a teacher, among others.

Unlike other professions who create content only are employed by Google, some teachers do not work for the state or in private schools they prefer to teach on YouTube and end up helping a lot of people and start earning from it, the only change is that it has become easier for you to make money, but all thanks to the internet and these content monetization platforms.

But I want to share something I think, I don't believe that everyone can record videos creating content because today we are living in the era of everything is possible with dedication and effort, that's true but it's ''everything'' that bothers me, no it's just like that in practice.

Like a lot of people here on Medium who'd rather read than writing, because they don't think they should write, not that they can't, but it's not something they feel like doing, it's not just about ability.

Leaving my opinion to the theme of the title, you need to position yourself as a content creator, even the people who watch you must understand that what you do is very serious, because often when we watch a video we can see a lot of falsehood in the creators, some sometimes they strive, they are not genuine, they are not themselves in the videos and this is not how it should be, you need to be you and convey this to the viewers.

It's not easy to talk in front of a camera, write scripts and study them and be spontaneous in filming and wait for the video to reach the desired audience so that the end of the month will have the fruit of your work edited and posted.

Well, the world is changing and in the same way that many professions appear, many are disappearing, and digital is no longer the future, it's reality, whoever doesn't join the digital won't exist whoever isn't digital doesn't exist!

The best time to make money online was yesterday and the best time is today.

And on YouTube, you have this opportunity, which is why it's as valuable a job as any other.

I wish all readers/writers every success.
