How much can you earn from a blog? A pressing question for novice video makers or a whole army of fans of top YouTubers who are interested in counting other people’s money.
Meanwhile, YouTube has long ceased to be an ordinary video hosting service, having evolved into a platform for interactive Internet television, where anyone can become a celebrity, making hundreds of thousands of dollars from their popularity, and this is far from the limit.
How do video bloggers make money on YouTube?
Video bloggers have at least four sources of income:
- Contextual advertising. Many users still believe that YouTube pays royalties based on the number of views of a particular video. But this statement is obviously incorrect. The fact is that a blogger’s salary depends on how many clicks on advertising banners and video screens the viewers of his channel make.
For example, famous YouTubers on the Runet manage to earn 50¢-$2.5 from contextual advertising within 1 thousand views of video content.
- Product placement. You've probably already come across videos in which, in the middle of the video, the channel host advertises manufacturers of goods and services. This is far from a cheap promotion, because the same EeOneGuy, Max +100500, Katya Klap and other equally popular YouTube stars cost advertisers from 30 to 100 thousand rubles.
- Selling links that are placed under the description of the video – 5-20 thousand rubles.
- Partnership programs. In addition to standard privileges: free access to the media library, conducting training webinars and round-the-clock support, an affiliate program can increase a video blogger’s income from contextual advertising by 20%-40%.
How much do YouTubers earn?
Probably, each of us was interested in how much top video bloggers earn on YouTube? Naturally, none of them will tell you about the size of their official fees, since famous YouTubers are often bound by contractual obligations to affiliate programs, advertisers and Google Corporation. However, you can calculate the approximate earnings of a particular video maker yourself or by using special online services.
- We count on our own: (A x B) + C = D
- A – number of views on the channel;
- B – average income from contextual advertising – $1-$1.5/1 thousand views;
- C – profit from the affiliate program, about 30% of earnings from advertising;
- D – potential channel income.
- If you have the Internet at hand, you can find all the necessary information on portals such as SocialBlade, WhatStat, StatSheep, etc.
And here we calculated everything for you. We analyze the income received from all his sources of income, including YouTube.
For example, to find out how much Sasha Spielberg earns on YouTube, you need to:
- Calculate using the diagram above.
(349.854 million x 1,500) + 30% = $682,215
- Or use the statistics of one of the above resources (using the example of the “StatSheep” service).
*– the numbers in both cases will be different, because StatSheep calculates the channel's potential profit at $2.5 per 1,000 views.

No. 10. Sasha Spielberg (Sasha Spielberg).
- Subscribers: 2.543 million
- Views: 349 million
- Income: $874 thousand
There are conflicting rumors about how much Sasha Spielberg earns on YouTube. Evil tongues say that the video blogger’s income does not cover the costs of promoting the channel, which is sponsored by her far from poor father. It is also noteworthy that Sasha hides her real last name according to some agreement with her parents, who wished to remain incognito.
So, no matter how much bloggers earn on YouTube, you need to understand that this is a rather labor-intensive task that takes up all the free time of video makers.
After all, in order to remain at the peak of popularity, it is necessary not only to regularly release videos, but also to comply with trends, improve the quality of production, generate and implement new ideas, properly monetize content and be able to interact with the audience. And this is expensive.
“This is Good” is a popular Latvian Russian-language Internet show produced since October 16, 2010. The program is broadcast twice a week - on Tuesdays and Fridays.
The blog is dedicated to reviewing funny videos on the Internet, similar to the show of American columnist Ray William Johnson.
The host of the program, Stas Davydov, gives his comments on videos sent by viewers or found by them. Interaction is usually used at the end of the transmission. In the early episodes of the program, another character participated - the illuminator Nastenka (more precisely, her voice), who began to appear again from the 164th to the 178th issues. A distinctive feature of the project is the absence of obscene language. YouTube viewers perceive the blog “This is Good” as an alternative to another popular blog “+100500”. Both blogs are Russian-language analogues of the Ray William Johnson show.
From the 29th issue, questions are removed rather than written. From the 48th episode of the show, it was released in HD format, and from the 55th to the 208th episode, the show began to be released with interactive subtitles in English for foreign users.
Issues 70, 96, 141, 198 and 308 were conducted by Ruslan Usachev. This fact was not very well received by the audience - all five times the videos received much more “I didn’t like” scores than in other episodes. Most commentators considered Ruslan not artistic enough. Issues 146, 195 and 298 were conducted by Ilya Prusikin, which was also received very coldly. The 214th and 310th editions were conducted by Mikhail Krzysztowski, who was received very warmly. The 243rd episode was hosted by Lee Kei, which again received a lukewarm reception. In the 296th issue, Stas Davydov announced that he was going to write vocal parts for his new group “Banana Bomb”, and therefore in future issues he would be replaced by guest presenters. The 297th episode was hosted by Danila Poperechny, the 300th by Daniil Maslennikov, the 301st by Sam Nickel, the 302nd by Yana Nezhdanova, the 303rd by Evgeny Zelenov, the 304th by Maxim “SnailKick” Kiselev, the 305th by Elena Rassokhina, 306th - the creator of the project Vitaly Golovanov, the 307th episode was conducted by the drawn Stas Davydov, created and voiced by Dmitry "Syenduk" Karpov, the 309th - Kirill Trifonov, Alexander Shuliko and Denis Kukoyaka, the 311th - Stas Oksaniy, and 312th - Victoria Yushkevich.
Since the 87th issue, the project has changed visually: the creators changed the inscriptions on the screen from white to gray with a white border, moved the microphone to the bottom of the frame, changed the design of the YouTube channel and the background on which the presenter is filmed, and also removed the “Spontaneous Madness Indicator” . As of episode 97, the answers to questions shown at the end of the video have been corrected. And starting from the 100th issue, the person whose interactive video question was included in the issue receives a branded T-shirt from the “This is Good” team. The design has changed again since the 270th issue: now there is a corner of the studio behind the host, the wall is white on the left, and black on the right. On the white wall, photographs of a woman’s breast and Milla Jovovich alternately appeared, then a sheet of paper pasted by Elena Rassokhina with the inscription “Stas is a fool”, whose place was then taken by a sheet of paper with a frame of Natalia Poklonskaya’s speech at a press conference.

Progress does not stand still, and if earlier you had to go to work to earn money, now it is enough to create a video blog on YouTube and things will begin to move forward. But what is vlogging? How to make money from this? And who can you look up to? We will address these questions in the publication.
A video blog is one of the types of blogs where information is conveyed not in writing or graphically, but via video. Recordings of such videos often combine embedded video, text support, music, photographs or pictures. Recordings can be different: a video can consist of one block or several parts. Today, the main and only platform on which all video blogs are concentrated is the YouTube channel. It was created in 2005, and the Russian version appeared in 2007.
Today anyone can create a blog, and it doesn’t matter whether they have a professional camera or not. It doesn't even matter if he can speak well. In some cases, a slight burr or stuttering may even become a blogger’s “trick.” But first things first.
- The first thing you need to blog is regularity. Viewers will not subscribe to an empty channel with only 5 posts from two years ago. The viewer always wants to see something new, and if this new thing appears constantly (at least once a week), then subscribers (like Pavlov’s dogs) will develop a conditioned reflex, and they will watch the channel constantly. Of course, this still needs to be achieved - negative reviews, dislikes and complete “ignore”, this is the normal situation for a novice blogger. The so-called quiet time, when the blogger can improve his speech and begin to feel more free in front of the camera. In addition, you don’t need to think that no one will see the video - there has never been a video on YouTube that no one watched.
- The second rule of a video blogger is video quality. This is especially true for those who need to focus on details. It is much easier for the viewer to find a similar video than to peer at the screen trying to guess what they are trying to tell him about. And there is no need to immediately run to the stores for professional cameras; ordinary point-and-shoot cameras will do the job well, as long as the room is well lit. The same thing applies to sound, the viewer will not listen closely, so you need to speak loudly and clearly.
- Music and screensaver are important, but not very necessary things in a blog. And if a blogger decides to please himself with a thematic intro for a video, it should not be very long and intrusive. As for the music that can be heard during breaks, it should not cause irritation.
- And last, but not least, is the character of the blogger. As statistics show, those bloggers who have the most subscribers are those who are charismatic and joyful. The viewer, of course, will appreciate the constructiveness of the information provided, but if it is read in an emotionless and sluggish voice, then even the most patient will turn off the video. The character, charisma and energy of a person are clearly visible in the recording, and if a blogger does not naturally have amazing charisma, he can correct this by adding a few of his own comments, a couple of jokes (for those with a bad sense of humor, it is better to refrain) and some interesting facts .
Newbie mistakes
Creating blogs in video format is not that difficult, but, nevertheless, beginners make a number of standard mistakes. Among them there are 3 main ones:
- Lack of purpose. Some novice video bloggers, when asked: “Why did you create a blog?” They can only answer indistinctly: “So that it may be.” And there are 90% of such “cadres”. Because of this approach, many are disappointed in video blogging. To prevent this from happening, you need to set specific goals for yourself, for example: “I want to earn so much per month from my blog so that I can go to Japan in such and such a year.” It is important to set a specific goal and an exact time, then the work will go much better.
- Not regular. As already mentioned, the blog needs to be systematically filled with new videos. If you upload 1 video per month, then the blogger will reach his intended goal, in the best case, in 8 years. One or two new videos per week is quite enough.
- Lack of channel web page. It is also called an accumulative page. It is especially relevant for those who want to make money from video. Such pages can be sites with a button to subscribe to a blog or groups on social networks; they will allow you to “save” the casual viewer and make him part of the audience of regular subscribers.
In general, all blogs can be divided into types according to criteria. For example, types of blogs are ranked by publications, number of authors, purpose of creation, content format (this includes video blogs) and scale of activity. When starting your video blog, you need to decide on only two criteria: the purpose and type of video. Today the following typology of videos differs:
- Instructions or training - a blogger shows how to use something correctly, this topic is always in demand, because for the user it is much easier to watch than to read.
- Review - recently it has been gaining more and more popularity, as many users have started making purchases via the Internet; they are interested in what item will come from this or that store.
- Vlog – yes, the name is correct, vlog, aka video diary. The blogger shows his daily activities: trips, get-togethers with friends or shopping.
- Sketch – or staged scenes depicting comical situations. These are original miniature films with their own plot.
- Lat’s play is a video about how a gamer passes the next level in the game.
- The show is the last refuge for those who have not yet appeared on TV; the main thing is to present an interesting idea.
- Interviews are strange, but this type of video is also very popular, because many fans will want to see their idol in a new role. But, since there are so many idols, there is nowhere to get them, you can simply ask funny questions to passers-by, this will definitely interest passers-by.
And as already mentioned, vlogging can be profitable. How much do bloggers earn? It all depends on the number of subscribers. Thus, blogs with more than 1 million subscribers can earn from 200 thousand to 1.5 million rubles per month. And if you don’t take such large numbers, but, for example, the average number of subscribers is 5000, then a blogger can receive at least $150 per month. The policy here is simple: for 1000 views, the blogger receives 1 dollar.
YouTube channels: what they are and the most popular ones.
What is a video blog, the main types, how to create it and how much you can earn is already clear. The question remains open: what are YouTube channels? Channels are the place where a blogger uploads his videos. Viewers subscribe solely to the channel, but not as a recording itself. If a blogger has his own channel, he can monetize it, and if not, he can create it.
The TOP 10 most famous channels in the world are:
- In first place is the channel of a blogger from Sweden called “Pew Die Pie”. To date, he has over 36.9 million subscribers. It was created in 2010 and since then 2500 videos have been uploaded to it.
- Second place goes to a channel called “Hola Soy German”, which was created by a blogger from Chile. The number of subscribers to date is 22.3 million. The channel has been operating since 2011, during which time 128 videos have appeared on it, with a total of more than 2 billion views.
- In third place is a channel that has two owners: “America’s child” with the name “Smosh”. The number of subscribers has long crossed the 19 million mark. The channel began broadcasting at the end of 2004 and during this time more than 500 videos appeared on it.
- The fourth place also belongs to a channel from the USA. “Rihanna VEVO” has 16.7 million subscribers, it was created in 2009, and 92 videos have been uploaded since then.
- And again, America is ahead of the rest, in fifth place is the Katy Perry VEVO channel, which has 16.5 million viewers and 89 videos.
- Finally, a channel from the UK has broken into the TOP 10 list. The sixth place is taken by the “One Direction VEVO” broadcast. Broadcasting began in 2010, the channel has 157 videos and 16.3 million subscribers.
- And again, the United States does not want to give up seventh place to anyone: the Eminem VEVO channel - 56 videos and 15 million viewers.
- In eighth place is the channel hosted by a pretty American woman, it is named after her “Jenna Marbles”. The channel has 253 videos and 15 million subscribers.
- Ninth place also belongs to the channel run by a blogger from America – “Nigahiga”. Today the number of subscribers is 14 million, and the channel contains 239 videos.
- And the last, tenth place belongs to the Taylor Swift VEVO channel, which has 14 million viewers and 70 videos. Exists since 2009.
As you can see, there are no Russian channels in the world TOP, so the best bloggers in Russia will be presented in a separate list.
TOP 8 best bloggers on Runet
- 1 place
In first place in terms of the number of subscribers is a blogger with the nickname Ivangay, aka Ivan Rudsky from Dnepropetrovsk. He started his career as a blogger in 2015 and filmed let’s plays, that is, videos of game playthroughs. Later he started making sketches and creating funny animations, now he talks about himself and his life.
- 2nd place
Now Maxim Golopolosov is in second place, but he occupied the leading, first position for so many years. What can I say, age probably takes its toll. He is the host of the weekly show “Plusstopitsot” (or “+100500”), as one might guess, the name was taken from a famous Internet meme. For those who don’t know, this meme means complete agreement with someone’s opinion.
The blogger writes reviews of funny videos, and does not spare humorous comments, which he turns out to be surprisingly sincere. Perhaps this is why he has so many subscribers. Although lately other bloggers have been blogging for Maxim, who are, at least not that famous, but still famous. And Maxim himself is still busy with his other blog, in which he talks about what is happening in his life.
- 3rd place
In third place is a native of Ukraine – Yuri Yaniv and his weekly channel with the interesting name “Cream Show”. In his videos he talks about interesting things, and there is also a cat in there. Perhaps thanks to him, the blogger managed to break into the top three so quickly.
- 4th place
The fourth place remains with a blogger from Latvia. His show “This is Good” is somewhat reminiscent of the format of Maxim Golopolosov’s videos, but people apparently like this format. Videos from the YouTube channel “This is Good” were even broadcast on First Television Channel. 3 people are involved in the project: V. Golovanov, S. Davydov, S. Fedorenko.
- 5th place
And the “Great Five Bloggers” is completed by Yuri Frost. By the way, he is the leader in the total number of video views. He started his career as a let's player for the Minecraft game, and now he just makes funny videos.
- 6th place
Sixth place belongs to Oleg Brain's gaming channel. Basically, it uploads videos of the game world in Mortal Combat, GTA 5 or Minecraft.
- 7th place
And finally, a girl has appeared on the list of the best bloggers. The honorable seventh place belongs to Ekaterina Trofimova, although she is better known on the Internet as Katie Clapp. She blogs about everything she finds interesting. He makes videos about himself, his hobbies, travels, and answers questions from fans and subscribers. By the way, her video diary can be compared with the same one belonging to the American girl Jenna Marbles, she ranks 8th in the world ranking of bloggers.
- 8th place
And in the last eighth place is Mister Lololoshka, aka MrLololoshka or simply Roman Filchenkov, a resident of Barnaul. On his blog, he provides a complete review of computer games, although he pays more attention to Minecraft.
As practice shows, the resources needed to launch your blog are not that much more: a point-and-shoot camera, an interesting idea and a friendly smile, and everything else will follow in the process.
How do you feel about bloggers?
In 2018, it is already necessary to be aware of the most trending events and trends. A relatively new profession for Russia - video blogger - brings good money to those who seriously engage in it. Here, as in sports, it is important to understand who is cooler than others. True, compared to foreign bloggers, Russians earn very little. This is explained by the smaller number of subscribers and, accordingly, views, caused by the fact that there are many more English-speaking users than Russian-speaking users, so we have prepared two lists at once, with 10 popular YouTube video bloggers in each.
Do you also want to become a cool video blogger? At first create your own YouTube channel.
The most popular YouTube video bloggers in Russia
1.EeOneGuy. The first place in terms of the number of subscribers is occupied by Ivan Rudinsky (the channel is called EeOneGuy), who is from Ukraine. Initially, the blogger was a Let's Player, that is, he made videos of himself playing games, while commenting on what was happening. In addition to games, he also made funny sketches and animations. Then, having gained popularity, he began making Vlogs about himself and his life. Nowadays, videos on Vanya’s channel are released very rarely, but at the same time, he still has 3 million more than the second most popular blogger in Russia.
2. SlivkiShow. The most star cat on the Internet, Cookie, as well as his owner, Yuri Yaniv, confidently hold second position with 9.6 million subscribers. The main content of the channel is life hacks and reviews of products from China. Now the channel is not developing as rapidly as before.
The channel is also known as +100500. The name comes from a once popular meme that signifies complete agreement. The days of meme popularity are over, but Maxim Golopolosov is still one of the top 3 most popular bloggers. The channel's content consists of reviews of funny videos and no less funny comments from Max.
4. LikeNastya. The most popular child in Russia at the moment is Nastya. The content is suitable for both children and young parents. Here Nastya plays with dolls, travels, unpacks toys and does various reviews. Videos on the channel are released at varying frequencies, but the channel continues to grow rapidly.
5. FROST. The blogger's name is Yuri Morozilka. He gained popularity thanks to let's plays for various games, as well as Vlogs from his own life.
6. TheBrainDit. Another Let's Player is not missing out on the opportunity to take advantage of the popularity of this format. He makes videos about the most popular games. There has been a lot of content lately about GTA V and GTA Online. He also reviews mobile games like Clash Royal and others.
7. TheBrianMaps. Maxim Tarasenko is a 17-year-old guy who somehow managed to gather a huge audience of schoolchildren. The main part of the content is funny parodies, comic videos and scenes in the spirit of KVN with a lot of dressing up and antics. At the moment, the channel continues to grow.
8. Mister Max. Another popular kid is Mr. Max. Most of the videos are dedicated to Max's games and travels. The boy especially loves to go shopping with toys and look for various new items.

9. TheKateClapp. So far, she is the first among Russian girl bloggers in terms of the number of subscribers on the channel. Ekaterina Trofimova makes vlogs and provides a lot of useful information for girls in an interesting way. But Katya doesn’t stop there. She makes videos on all topics that interest her and answers questions from subscribers.
10. This is good. Rounding out the top 10 is another channel where various videos are reviewed. The joint project of Vitaly Golovanov, Stas Davydov and Sergei Fedorenko was even shown on Channel One for some time. However, at the moment the channel is losing ground and has already moved to 10th position in the rating.
