[@GracefulKnots]

I have made just under £60 in a whole year on KZbin and half of it came from a video I posted 2 weeks ago which has 9.8k views. If I was doing KZbin for money only I would have given up by now but I do it cos I love connecting with people. I can't live on KZbin income obviously lol but I am happy for those who can. Was really generous of you to get gifts for people too out of your money😀

[@goodgirlsguide]

Keep going.

[@qweennambi6007]

Girl I'm so happy for you. i love that you played no games in telling us the pay in the beginning of the video. You earned a fan of me from that.

[@kconway2263]

And now it’s May, and KZbin just suggested your video to me, so it’s still making the rounds. I’m glad things are looking up for you. I hope that continues.

So BEYOND thrilled to know that KZbin changed your life for the better. Also, you just gained a new subscriber

[@essencekamille]

First off, congratulations on your success on YT! I found your page because I’m turning 30 and ran across your viral video. 2nd, sis ! Our words have power! Don’t say that you don’t think you’ll ever make 4k again. You did it once, why would you NOT be able to do it again? Praying for continued success & multiple 4k, 40k & even 400k months!

[@soniateach]

Thank you for sharing this with us! I've been on KZbin for 6 years, and the only time i went viral was during the pandemic, so i didnt get accepted into the KZbin partner program right away due to delays from Google. I'm so grateful I still leveraged that opportunity to make money by selling digital products, 1:1 coaching, courses, etc. There is so much potential for you to monetize your existing audience, even if you're not getting as many views. I'll make a video about it & I hope that it helps. I'm so passionate about this topic. ❤

[@soniateach]

I just went live on my channel to break down some ways to make money on youtube even with low views! I know you probably won't see it, but if you do... I hope it helps!

[@user-gs2lm4xb7j]

Please do. I want to start my own channel. I need all of the education I can get to start a successful channel that will grow and grow and make really great money.

[@soniateach]

​@@user-gs2lm4xb7j I posted it! It's in the "live" section of my channel

[@GracefulKnots]

I am so happy that you made that money. More success to you 😍

[@cymph1157]

I don't understand how you can have so many subscribers and little number of views. You deserve so much! I would like an update in a few months!

[@cpwwjd69]

Subscribers don't always watch. Plus, there are the algorithms. I Subscribe to lots of channels don't always watch their contents

[@xoxoakouto]

Thank you! My subs normally don't know when I've posted unless they turn on notifications. YT sends my videos for new people to watch instead of my subs which is odd. I MIGHT give an update if anything drastic changes! lol

[@Floslegacycrotchet]

Congratulations girl....it's making a huge difference in so many different ways 🎉

[@SheilaTrueLove]

New Subscriber here. You are absolutely stunning. Thank you so very much for sharing this information. It is very USEFUL. I hope your Channel BLOWS UP and that you become very SUCCESSFUL being a CONTENT CREATOR. 🙏💖💕

[@user-gs2lm4xb7j]

I think God is blessing you through your KZbin channel because you are just so seriously real, honest and down to earth. So many people on these digital platforms I don't care for. They aren't honest. They start a business and within four months they are trillionairs. They sat at their work station and decided to just leave their job. Quit, went home started a business selling lint for twenty-five cents per lint ball and next they are showing a new house tour. The lint business is so great. Selling expensive ebooks that say or teach nothing. Coaching courses that cost more than a monthly home payment. I'm so tired of the fakeness. All of this is why I think people like your content. Per example: You got to the point of your subject matter right at the beginning. You admitted and said, no I'm not a full time content creator. I just don't have a (W2) job yet. Who knows maybe you want have to land one. Hopefully, you'll have a choice to take a W2 job or not. Your channel is fire and it's growing. I hope you can do it full time if you'd like to. Read the comments, your subscribers like that you are down-to-earth and honest. It's working. Keep that up. It made me want to continue on with the video. When KZbinrs make me wait I slide the bar over and get to the point. I don't watch the entire video. Keep going. You are improving. We are learning from you. We support you. I'm watching your videos all the way through. Keep going. Apologies for the lenght of this. Take care.

[@mvp4lyfateverything]

Such a kind comment, love seeing people being so gracious towards others ❤

[@xoxoakouto]

So sweet thank you! I've never heard of a link business before! Interesting!

Hello! I love your content, and I feel very identified with you. I am Argentina, I am 29 years old, I am about to graduate and I feel lost. I have watched some of your videos and you have motivated me and given me the courage to start making videos myself. I think I have been through very hard times and currently my country is in a very strong economic crisis that often knocks me down and I only see darkness. I need to take action, and maybe by making videos telling my story I can get over it. I just wanted to say that. Thank you for existing and encouraging you to share your life with us, you are very valuable, xoxo.

BILLBOARDS?!?! Period!!! thank you!

[@jettj6088]

You are a sweetheart. I do think you should maximize your success. 2400 is a lot right now but overall it isn't. If you have a side hustle you can probably write things off on your taxes. Have you thought of getting a real estate license and use your channel to market that or show people how to go about it. You are in LA and you should be able to sell there. This is just a suggestion but it would be great to see you out of the house doing activities since you live in a fantastic place.

[@codeezie]

This is so insightful. It helps me finally understand how much some creators are actually probably making. Which before, i had no fucking idea. No one spills the beans in this way.

Be careful on how you accept gifts. If you accept them in exchange for a review, the government can tax you on the amount the gift is worth.

[@Noah-yz7yx]

Up. To make sure that she reads this

[@user-gs2lm4xb7j]

Good advice, and don't let companies gift you to death. Gift monetarily and pay her. $$$$$" You can buy your own gifts with the money they pay you. Please don't let them gift you too much.

[@xoxoakouto]

When i did my taxes in 2023, I included the total worth of the free items as part of my income because they technically aren't gifts... The brands wanted a review for the item so it was an exchange of services. The government has the info for that. :)

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

7:19 How crazy is this... As soon as you said, "Get ready for it." an ad played, cutting me off at the exact same moment as the beginning of the video... What are the odds??

ha! KZbin is sooo good about that! they ask you to place the ads at specific moments, but most of the times, YT figures it! Such a smart technology!
