In recent years, the content that these creators make in their videos and their channel has become very professionalized. Thanks to this, it has become a profession with which <strong>Youtubers<\/strong> generate a lot of income. In order to start monetizing your videos, they must meet a series of requirements.<\/p>\n<h2>How YouTubers Monetize<\/h2>\n<p>When they have more subscribers they can start <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arimetrics.com\/en\/digital-glossary\/monetization\">monetizing<\/a> their videos, so they receive income from the advertising that Youtube includes in them. Another source of revenue can be collaborations with brands within your channel. In order to monetize these videos, they must first be subscribed to the Youtube partner program. The second requirement would be to accumulate more than 4,000 hours of playback in the last 12 months. They must have more than 1,000 subscribers and a linked AdSense account.<\/p>\n<p>When they meet all these conditions they can request the option to include advertising in their videos. That&#8217;s when the Youtube platform decides where to include these small ads and the content creator will take a share of the profits. That is, they would charge a percentage of what the advertiser has paid to put a certain ad.<\/p>\n<h2>How youtubers maintain their positioning<\/h2>\n<div id=\"exacc_juXNYeD0N82PlwSKyIP4CA5\" class=\"MBtdbb\" data-ved=\"2ahUKEwjg85_g_4v1AhXNx4UKHQrkAI8Q7NUEegQIBRAD\">\n<div class=\"ymu2Hb\">\n<div class=\"t0bRye r2fjmd\" data-hveid=\"CAUQBA\" data-ved=\"2ahUKEwjg85_g_4v1AhXNx4UKHQrkAI8Qu04oAHoECAUQBA\">\n<div id=\"WEB_ANSWERS_RESULT_6_juXNYeD0N82PlwSKyIP4CA__6\">\n<div class=\"wDYxhc\" data-md=\"61\">\n<div class=\"LGOjhe\" role=\"heading\" data-attrid=\"wa:\/description\" aria-level=\"3\" data-hveid=\"CAMQAA\"><span class=\"ILfuVd\"><span class=\"hgKElc\">Youtubers maintain their positioning through the contact and interest they show their followers since sometimes they make videos according to what they demand through the comments of their channel or direct. It is essential to connect with the audience by answering their messages, be grateful for their enthusiasm and follow-up, be very constant when uploading content and establish a commitment.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div role=\"heading\" data-attrid=\"wa:\/description\" aria-level=\"3\" data-hveid=\"CAMQAA\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Example of youtubers<\/h2>\n<p>List of the five youtubers with the most followers in Spain:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ruben Doblas (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/elrubius\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rubius Z<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Raul Alvarez (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/AuronPlay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AuronPlay<\/a> )<\/li>\n<li>Samuel de Luque (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=vegetta777\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VEGETTA777<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>David Canovas (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/TheGrefg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TheGref<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Guillermo D\u00edaz Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=willyrex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Willyrex<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>List of the five youtubers with the most followers internationally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Felix Kjellberg (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/PewDiePie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PewDiePie<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Jimmy Donaldson (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/MrBeastenEspa%C3%B1ol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MrBeast<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Germ\u00e1n Garmendia (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/JuegaGerman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JuegaGerman<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Whindersson Nunes (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/whindersson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Whinderssonnunes<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Felipe Neto (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/naofazsentido\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Felipe Neto<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about Youtuber<\/h2>\n<div class=\"geo-faq-block\">\n<details class=\"geo-faq-item\">\n<summary>What does Youtuber mean in digital marketing?<\/summary>\n<p>Youtuber refers to the concept described in this glossary entry: Definition: A Youtuber is that person who uploads videos to the Youtube platform with a regularity.
