35 Ways To Make EXTRA MONEY On The Internet

[@Senpai]

Yo, you gonna start doing any of these that you didn't think of before? Or do you have one that I didn't think of?

[@eoghan7329]

I am literally broke. I spent all of my money on my PC and monitor and mouse and keyboard. Do you think I can make youtube videos with a headset for a mic even just to start. I mean its the best I have and I really want to make this work, what u think?

Whats The Thing You Earn The Most Off?

[@UnknownUser-tq6ru]

I don't know why viewers are afraid of seeing their favourite streamers make money. I got a comment during stream saying "What's with the ad, are you here to make money or have fun?" Or some viewers getting annoyed at TTS for bits, sounds alerts for bits, legit dude, I'm unemployed, I stream to make money, viewers are clearly having enough fun watching to donate.

[@cgtsang]

The "make money from home" niche is blowing up right now

[@xo_kryptoknight4147]

Yea it was a growing trend and it blew up even more now that people are getting less hours at work or maybe even lost their job

Legal reasons

[@PyroTech03]

@@davs.motivation I can understand legal reasons why a creator wouldn't show their numbers. But why a viewer gets mad at someone who does that does not have a legal reason stopping them is more what I was referring to.

@@PyroTech03 That's just greed and jealousy, and usually a person will respond in one of two ways. Either they'll appreciate it and find it entertaining or even inspirational, or they'll try to bring the person down to their level. Basically the "I don't have that so why should you" mentality.

Real talk, you are one of the FEW in this pool of "content creators" that does an excellent job or being transparent, honest, and not giving a hidden agenda vibe like almost everyone seems to do at some level. You deserve what you make and more, but most importantly you have a platform that isn't pigeon holed into relying on viewers to directly contribute. Cheers

I honestly would like to hear how you keep track of your income for taxes ect.

[@SaiSivakumar]

Second this. It's really hard to wrap my head around how to categorise income and everything.

[@crypticcyber-plus]

When it comes to taxes each website give you a monthly income sheet and it’s usually has how much you made at the end of the year also you also go into a self employed bracket when doing your taxes which means your in a higher tax bracket when it comes to online business the website that pay you have a spot to look at your gross pay when it comes to merch if your not going through a third party you have to keep track of everything because there’s a lot you can use as a tax write off

[@ralfee8713]

Tax evasion

[@jenninexus]

I just put my Twitch income as "extra income" on taxes.. although I'm only making a fraction of what Harris has to think about reporting :-D

[@dougf1249]

Ohh taxes are annoying; so ya that would be great to know.

[@Balormage]

I would absolutly love to see a full breakdown of how much money you make, and how it's made. But something else I'd love to see more. Is a video on how to find sponsors, how big you should be before you approach one. And maybe even what red flags you should be looking out for. Same with orgs. I am about a 110 adverage viewer streamer and I'm struggling to turn this into a living wage, I still dont make enough to live and pay rent. And I cant find any information on any of these things so im going in blind. Otherwise love these videos, you have helped me alot. Cheers mate.

[@noautomodee]

BalorMage try building a youtube channel

[@qolumbia3536]

I don't know much but if the company is making money when you aren't in whatever they are offering you, you shouldn't be taking that. Also make sure you have other people look over that contract. You probably shouldn't go the sponsors and ask them, you don't need sponsors to be a legit streamer or to afford rent if you annoy them they might put you on some sort of blacklist, etc. You should let them contact you. The reason he doesn't have a video on finding sponsors and the like is because its a bad idea for you to contact them. If you are really struggling with the rent make a youtube to get extra income and also get a job, (it can be something like Harris mentioned in the video) even if it cuts into your stream time (streaming constantly won't help you get viewers most of the time, let alone make a financial impact.) Also I don't know if this will make an impact, but maybe give value to subbing or donating, like adding TTS (text-to-speech) for certain amounts of donations like $3 or more is TTS and maybe adding more sub emotes so people have more of a reason to sub besides just supporting you. (I don't know if that makes a difference though, but usually I feel way more against subbing whenever there is like 4 emotes compared to a different streamer with like 24, this should probably be the last thing though.)

[@bray8949]

110 avg viewer should be getting u 2500 to 3000 maybe more a month jesus nice man

I would love to see the financial breakdown video. I'm trying to run this like a business, and you're definitely knowledgeable about basically every aspect of this one

[@Stephanie-ln6tb]

I am so okay with you breaking the cardinal rule as long as your comfortable. It’s hard to see videos allude to this but never actually have something to directly reference to. And perhaps how to file taxes (paying taxes)/keep up with all the different incomes or any tips you have to make sure everything is kept tidy or even how to manage income once you actually have one. Especially as a content creator. Thank you Harris for all your hard work and insight. 🙏🏽

[@bryanblaschek9752]

Appreciate the playlist. Used it in last night stream and one viewer said it was smooth, so I’m hoping that means it was good😂

[@CodyMerritt]

More money, you say? Go on... I like you analogy of streaming being treated like charity. I'm moving from KZbin into Twitch as well and I'm faaaar off from making any money from it, but I want to approach it with a business mindset so I can build appropriately as I go. Thank you for this!

[@xo_kryptoknight4147]

Agreed, i feel running a stream like a charity also makes the revenue a lot more inconsistent rather than running it as a business

One thing I would love to know that is hard to find proper answers to is how to approach sponsors and brands and what money or deal to ask for or expect. There doesn't seem to be a nice easy guide anywhere.

[@chrisdempsey2379]

Yes, do the total money you make video. As long as you're not flexing your revenue, I don't see why anyone could get upset, especially with your channel being so informative.

[@Mico605]

You gained my respect and sub for showing the actual numbers you earn. I have nothing against people making money, its just frustrating that people don't actually want to show it like its gonna kill them.

Please do the video, i think more people are genuinely intressted than there are toxic people on your channel/ community.

I genuinely thought this was great! I've watched 100's of Vids this week and this takes the cake mate. Well done for not being afraid to openly talk about making money doing what you do.

[@thecloudtherapist]

A year old and still one of the best (if not, the best) posts on monetisation, honesty about what works and what is a 2aste of time and more importantly, how HH does it for himself; not a "Here's how you can make money..." without the personal reveal but a post WITH that reveal included. Thank you HH. I've learned so much from you. Please keep these video types coming.

For the 3d printing idea, they are companies wich you can buy 3D printed Items from a cad file you send them. So if you dont have money for a printer, you can do that

[@jenninexus]

And u can sell your models for print on Shapeways :-D

[@Evenchully]

Appreciate you sharing your monetization metrics with us Harris, not a lot of creators will do that these days and I think the 2010-2013 stigma is mostly gone or.... if not, it should be. With that being said, HOLY SHIT MAN! You are absolutely freakin KILLING it! I'm sure I'm not alone in having no idea you were doing so well on Twitch. I figured Twitch was just your side hustle to your KZbin at this point. And that's at only 3 days a week streaming?! Not gonna lie, this kinda makes me excited. It's like seeing proof that you don't need to have 5,000 viewers or to stream 60 hours a week to do really well for yourself. Most of us would be content with 1/10th of that per month. Hell, 1/20th of that. Keep up the good work bud!

[@Trash_Mouse__]

Thanks for making this vid! With this Covid-19 thing going on right now & everyone being out of work, learning how to turn content production into a career is incredibly useful! I've shared this with my team and I hope more people can learn and grow from this. You guys are the best!

[@TechnoTim]

Thank you so much for these! I think most people can wrap their head around every category except brand deals & sponsorships. Would love a deep dive on this, however it might be too niche. Thanks again!

Do the video! I'd love to see the breakdown and learn from it. Its not about what YOU make...its about how we can progress into the world of content creation as a career.

[@wolvenna4639]

I absolutely would love to see a revenue breakdown. Streaming/Content Creation is such an opaque career choice. We only know that the "big" streamers are rolling in their Scrooge McDuck sized swimming pools of cash, and the tiny streamers are making zilch. There is literally no breakdown anywhere on the internet where people share how much they're making, why they're making that much, and whether or not those numbers are realistic.

[@judithhall1614]

I'm working on my entertainment business degree, because I want to help myself and help others reach their dreams. Your videos have been EXTREMELY HELPFUL and a full financial breakdown, or really just most insight on different ways to use social media, would be super helpful. Thank you for supporting the success of others!!!

1 Yes it would be nice if Sam would make a Course i would defently buy it. 2 If you are willing to break down your income from all these platforms you are active on , that would be awsome, But isnt this maybe a bit to personal to show each step of your own income ? Anyways nice video Harris and Lovely Dingsounds Sam :)

[@thesalta72]

Yes! Please make the video! That level of transparency is something that new streamers and content creators need. It's something that can really help drive and motivate people to taking that next step! As someone who is also striving to grow so that I can help people like you do, I am very interested to have some facts to be able to pass on to my community. Bless your face, and thank you for everything!

[@woodypaul_]

I also think it's interesting (and somewhat feeds into the "charity" mindset) that when you approach the industry with a challenge (i.e. make money other ways aside from your followers) they don't reply with answers or theories of their own - they just ask you to give them an answer to your challenge in a how-to video.

yes for the monetary breakdown video and also another good one can be about organising all incomes for taxes

[@michalwalks]

Wait, have I got this right, all the youtube ads only made you $115.23? Wow that was unexpectedly low. It goes to show that adsense may be insignificant, and hence demonetization irrelevant...
