The TRUTH About Starting a Meditation Channel on Youtube (6 Month Experiment)

[@vidyyzone7595]

95% of youtubers who talks about online money making is a liars who waist watchers time................ we need guys like you keep going and thank you

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Thank you!

[@Documentarytoshow]

Problem no one knows if a channel is a success. KZbin have to promote these kind of channels. He relied on KZbin , it did but didn't do much. It promotes channel which already has a a lot of viewers.

[@charlie.on.youtube]

The most ironic part is: KZbin says they're not worth monetizing because people don't engage with them. And then, after cutting the creator out of monetization, they run ads on them anyway.

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Good point!

[@charlie.on.youtube]

@@VEEDCREATORS My guess is: these videos take up a huge amount of resources (persistent storage, networking, etc.) If KZbin monetizes them, they can try to recoup some of that cost. And also if KZbin cuts the creator out of the deal, they discourage others from uploading hundreds of 10-hour videos that get little to no engagement. If it's not a good bang for the buck, they gotta do what they can.

[@roninr8199]

​@@charlie.on.youtubethen it is better to remove those hard making videos from youtube. If we don't get paid so Google also should not make money out of it

[@Twisted-charm]

​@@VEEDCREATORS thanks man, you just saved me ☺️

[@quizwell]

"Make sure you focus on making videos you actually enjoy making - rather than simply trying to make money in the quickest way possible" - good advice ...

[@tonizargari9718]

Thank you. Exactly. Those channels keep selling "easy ways to make money online" but I tried plenty of those ideas and they were a complete waste of time.

[@Magicspectrespecs]

Thank you for taking the time to do this experiment, it definitely made me question things, & further my research into making this type of video. I believe the older channels that make tons of money off of their ambient videos got into the niche first, & used content off different sites to create their videos. Now that those videos exist with those sound effects, music, and images, they can't be reused & monetized over and over. I've heard many times that as long as you use all of your own original content (photographs you've taken, art you've created, sounds you've recorded, music you've composed etc.), you won't have an issue with being demonetized. I've also heard that even if you create all of your own original content, you can still have trouble getting monetized. Unfortunately creating all of your own original content, & attempting to reach the point of monetization is a lot of work to do if you dont end up getting the desired result. I dont think many people would want to risk dedicating all that time & effort into testing it out, just to find out that it wont be monetized. No matter what kind of channel you have/want to have, you're going to have to put time, effort, possibly a little money, and a ton of patience into it. If it's something you're passionate about, do it. If you're hoping to find a get rich quick hack, you'll be sorely disappointed.

[@RelaxationRealm666]

I'm passionate about this type of content. My work is 100% original. I got 156 subs and 3600 watch hours so far (~ 4 months). Let's see if it can be monetized. But you're right, it's not easy especially in growing subs and it does take a ton of effort & patience.

[@CalmMotive]

You know what helps. Research your own stuff. Me as a starting white noise/ soundscape channel is doing pretty good.. Not worries getting monitized anytime soon. But what i really dislike about channel that give advice ( not you ) is they only tell half of the story. It sounds so simple and quick.. it rather time consuming. Anyways love the experiment you did on your own terms.. 🙏🙏

[@truthsfrominternet]

Thankyou man it helped! Sending love from other side of the world

[@happyhermitsoothingsounds]

Thank you for saying this & showing it. As you can see from my name I "fell" for it in July but I'd used healing sounds for years so I wasn't just looking for a get-rich-quick thing it was something I was truly interested in & believed helped people. I was already a regular consumer of these videos & knew what I liked & didn't & what I was looking for when I click on one (I've learned a lot about the fact that just because it looks easy doesn't mean it is to do it well!) I also live in Mexico & have a camera so this channel turned into a cool way to start seeing things around me in a new way, using my creativity differently & getting me out of my bubble & the rut I was in not appreciating what's right outside my door. I saw how daunting it was to even start getting monetization by September & tried to do an event that showed people: "hey... I'm actually a human that cares about this & you" to send the smoke signals of, "I'm not just an exploiter looking for easy cash! I want to have a channel that connects with you"... that blew up in my face & wallet & I almost quit then. (I did have a Halloween video that crushed & blew my mind... over 20,000 views & I made the watch time just thanks to that but over 20,000 people watched it & you can see 1000 didn't even feel compelled to hit subscribe so I was still not able to even hope to monetize... I was kinda crushed & very confused to be honest) But after a holiday break I realized I needed the channel for more than money: it was giving me personal things I need right now & now I have an entire channel of sound videos that I enjoy so I went from a consumer of others to being able to provide a sound video for any health thing I'm working on. But ugh... all my hopes of finding an income source I could actually keep up with my disability: gone again. Oh well... I am a Happy Hermit & I love my channel: money or not. So if you need to make money & that's it: I'd say skip it. If you are sincerely interested in how these tones heal & can find other benefits (I'm learning better camera work, editing, KZbin lessons, etc.) nothing you try is ever a real failure so go for it. Definitely don't look at a sound channel as a get-rich-quick scheme. It's not an easy: I'm going to take this seriously thing either. I've seen channels I'm convinced are just computer generated so I don't even think the people who are succeeding are really doing the work after the programming & some maintenance is done. They just could invest in technology to blow real people out of the water. Nature videos are cool... of course, I make them because I enjoy them & coming up with 30 videos a month that really target different health things mixed right or background lofi, jazz, etc. soundtracks (which I love making but take a ton of time) or videos I go shoot when it's just me & my pups is impossible but even in my nature ones I don't grab just any rain or nature clips... I need to really like it & it needs to be something I'd play as a consumer ( have a few I debate deleting because I don't like my editing & choices) If grabbing lightening clips & rain sounds is all you can or will do... from consumer me... you're really not offering anything special & I wouldn't have hit subscribe even when I was just consuming them not making them. There's a learning curve in using & understanding binaural beats & other tones & mixing them... well like I said... I'm learning a lot but as in most art forms... people valuing your work & making money is not easy & now it turns out KZbin finds them financially worthless as well. (Bet they are annoyed about having to store all of them too) Well, like I said: I have videos to chill me out when I get mad about it & a completely personalized sound channel! (sorry for the long-winded comment but it's been a long 7 months down this road & I hope it helps someone make a real decision about what they are getting into) 💖🐾🗡

[@SpeedBoosted911]

Thank you for that long comment. Do you success to live from the channel earnings? That's important question as well

[@WhimsicalZenDen]

Thank you for sharing. Same as you, I myself am a consumer, and decided to create something to help others as well, money or not, and my plan was not to add any ads in my music, but, I just learned that KZbin can add ads to me videos even if I'm not a KZbin partner, and only when I reach 1000 subscribers and 4000 hrs views (become a partner) I can get those ads removed. This is really discouraging :(

[@MarsblissGuidedMeditation]

My meditation channel was approved for monetization but I do guided meditation so it is unique content.

[@wowowowzzz]

Congratulations 👏 Did you have problems with KZbin putting mid roll ads before you were monetized?

[@MarsblissGuidedMeditation]

@@wowowowzzz omg yes it was horrible. My listeners would get upset and leave bad comments because who wants to listen to a meditation with ads. I think it really slowed me down as well in getting monetized. So glad I’m not dealing with that anymore. Hopefully KZbin will change that.

[@RelaxationRealm666]

Congratulations 👏 How long does it take your channel to reach 1000 subs? Any tips? Mine got 3600 watch hours so far but only 156 subs which is painfully slow :(

[@arnie9913]

Do you make the music yourself as well ?

[@MarsblissGuidedMeditation]

@@RelaxationRealm666 I got to around 650 subs in a little over a year and then KZbin started putting tons of ads in the middle of the meditations. I hired a marketing person to promote the channel and get me the last 350 so I could get it monetized and get the ads taken out. Honestly just so frustrating that KZbin does this to smaller creators. Ps I just subscribed to you! Goodluck.

[@TheDrawingGenie]

I'm still trying to do this and am seeing mixed results. I've seen 1000+ views on some videos but 3 views on others... The meditation market is super saturated, so it's difficult to stand out, which is why I make my own original music which has definitely helped.

[@soundeffectstation191]

I started a sound effect channel a month ago, but I've recorded my own sound effects. My first video already has 1.5K views. I don't think there should be a problem getting monetized if you record the sounds yourself.

[@Magicspectrespecs]

I've heard the same thing. As long as you use your own photography, art, sound recordings, music, etc, you won't have a problem with demonization.

[@samsungsenses]

Off course, there used to be a time when using stock video/sound is monetizeable, but now? Not a chance since everybody use the same stock/sound from the same stockvideo website ​@@Magicspectrespecs

[@MoonMusicToday]

The fact so many channels that are original are still not getting monetized makes me think mine will never do.

[@CalmMotive]

Never lose hope. Hardwork pays off. There is no easy money in life🙏🙏 I started 2 weeks ago and it is going pretty good actually!

[@ChamberlaneAltatis]

Thanks for making this experiment. I was actually considering creating a similar channel but make the visuals original from my work of art but now thinking twice and probably not continue it. And if I will, I'll just do it for a hobby instead of for profit.

[@devinityc98]

I am a musician and an artist and I want to compose meditation music and guided meditations, still learning and pursuing music education at this time but I am hoping in the future to have a meditation youtube channel that I can turn into another stream of income for myself because as an artist you often need multiple streams of income. Thank you for the honest experiment and video, however I am not discouraged but I can now know it can be a slow process and that originality and thumbnails play are a factor. after my music education I am taking music business which will help me learn marketing skills so I am sure that will help me in application towards this goal.

[@10BrainySnippets]

Thank you for your honesty @Veed Creators. KZbin is saturated with a lot of half truths that it's hard to find a channel like yours. I was actually considering adding a few meditation videos on my existing channel but I'm watching more of your videos for alternatives.

[@tinasimaika]

That’s excellent. And if you think from a business standpoint, it makes sense, KZbin makes money with adds and people wanting to spend more time on the platform. 10 hours sounds doesn’t make people buy things they see on the add. And thinking from a consumer point of view, I myself used to play some sounds for my daughter as a new born for her to sleep, hairdryer sound, fan etc and I’ve never ever subscribed, made a comment or anything. I would just pray for the sound to be consistent otherwise my baby would wake up lol.

[@mpodricnik]

You saved me a lot of time. Thank you🙂

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Glad it helped!

[@mindfulmusiccollective]

Thanks for the great sharing! I hope to get monetized one day

[@abysstopia]

I launched my ambient music channel (the one I'm posting from here and now) in November 2022. It did very little, and earlier this year I shut it down. Then, the itch scratched me again so I relaunched it in May with a new name. YT graciously gave me back all my previous subscribers (all 65-ish of them) after a week or so, and that was nice. Just moments ago (at time of typing) I finally reached 100 subscribers. So I'm 10% of the way there! In my case, I use all original music (a lot of it adapted from pop/rock songs I wrote back in the 1990s), so on that score I should be fine for monetizing. Where I'm unsure if I'll qualify is with the visuals. Mostly I use single images, licensed from stock sites. I've animated some of them, frame by frame, in Photoshop. Others I've just left as they were. I also have used some stock video footage. I'll be interested to see, should I reach the 1000/4000 double, whether I'll qualify. And then, whether it will all have been worthwhile!

[@TheSilentMystic]

Make sure you focus on making videos that you actually enjoy making rather than trying to make money in the quickest way possible. That's the advice right there. You have to love what you do, and the money will come. but if you chase after money alone, it is meaningless and empty in the end.

[@AphelionCrux]

Great Info! I won't have any false hopes. I'll just keep recording sounds that help me relax and creating visuals that I enjoy to pair with the audio. Yeah, I'd love for other viewers to also enjoy my content....but your advice is solid.

[@FutureCityAmbient]

I am on a quest to grow a channel like this. I am only 2 months in, my subs grow very slow, but I already have over 1K of watched hours.. in 2 months ! I am making my own music and my own visuals, so my content is 100% original. I can't unfortunately be uploading every day as I have another business to run, and also another channel (growing that one too, but with absolutely different content, mostly filming my self talking about music production, have enough subs but not enough hours). And making music and visuals take time, but I try at least every 3 days.

[@brainjellyTV]

Awesome…I just started mine today…but in Spanish…open to criticism 😎

[@Londya]

I plan to do this too. I wonder if it makes a difference if you copyright your music?

[@awakeandempowered]

Just curious, did you get monetized? I notice you have over 1k subscribers now

[@FutureCityAmbient]

@@awakeandempowered Yes, just a couple of weeks ago. Basically, it took me exactly 6 months to get monetised. By the time i have reached 1K subs I already had around 14K watch hours. I was consistently uploading 2 sometimes 3 times a week. I can also say, once you reach 1K subs, they start growing faster. But most importantly - love what you're doing, this is the only driving factor. The numbers are just the bonus. I am not getting thay much money for now, as it's just the beginning. I have made only 55$ so far, but hopefully i'll reach 100 by the end of the month, and consistently uploading new content, things will only grow exponentially :)

[@awakeandempowered]

@@FutureCityAmbient that is fantastic! I'm so pleased for you. I love what I'm doing, I originally had them on my website but my server was getting full so I started a KZbin channel to put them on. My main driving force to be monetized is so I can remove the ads in the middle of the videos! This gives me hope, thank you for your reply 🙏

[@thepetosphere]

[@PurfectRelaxation]

It took my channel just over a year to reach the requirements for monetization and eight months later we were demonetized. we keep re-trying to get it back but they consistently tell us we have reused content and or do not provide any value. This is frustrating due to this year amount of hours and time we put into the channel and how many comments we get from people on how much we help them. Hopefully we will eventually get it back. I do agree it’s not a fast moneymaker but if you’re willing to put in the time and love it as much as we do it can be worth it.

[@TheRealSoulPanda]

same! I just recently reached the minimum to apply, applied, and was told its re-used content. Wish I would have saw this video or read comments before. Feels like a waste of time spending all those hours editing just to be told, sorry, no thanks. Meanwhile the established guys are grandfathered in making $500k-3M/year and us newbies are left with $0 and told to 'find a new hobby'.

[@mindfulactionsbybeth]

As someone who teaches meditation, I would like to argue that it's not technically a meditation channel. It's a relaxing sounds channel. Unless someone comes to the page fully aware of how to meditate on their own, it's not providing any meditation benefits.

[@questfortraquility]

[@Syber.Studios]

I just hit 168 subscribers and 1,826 watch hours in 2 months, now I am worried if the Royalty free music I am using will even let me monetize even with licenses. It's a grind but my visuals are original and I enjoy doing it.

[@Manitou36]

I like your honesty, I subscribed to your channel 👍

[@PositiveVibesVids]

It's like you messed up on purpose though... you stopped uploading after 30 days and it's not unique at all. Still I appreciate this video because it has made me rethink my strategy. Basically to make sure I am original. KZbin still seems cloudy on meditation vids yet from my research anyone who created or produced their own music and videos are usually okay. I'm gonna make different types of videos too touring the world. Literally gonna make a video on KZbin on my progress and use this as my way into KZbin.

[@VEEDCREATORS]

I definitely didn't mess up on purpose (which I say in the video). I kept it as simple as possible, because that is always the method described in the "how to" videos. I posted 30 videos which were optimised for search, but none of them got anywhere near enough views.

[@PositiveVibesVids]

@@VEEDCREATORS maybe you didn't mess up on purpose but you definitely didn't give it your full effort. I would be curious to see how you did if you actually tried to improve your vids.. I could be wrong I guess I'll Find out for myself .. yet looking at your channel and mine.. the quality gets better as I keep making them .. only been a month so too short to tell but I will make a video just like this to share my story too. You have definitely verified it's not a get rich quick scheme. And considering it takes 2-3 years on average to get monetized you have to enjoy it. I still really like your videos and got a lot of value from it. I didn't know the no copyright music couldn't be used so happy I learned that early on. Deff an over saturated market yet it's teaching me a lot about how KZbin works. And it's making me want to make videos touring the world and nature trails and what not to make my content more unique. It's still a little foggy how KZbin works with these types of channels yet I figure even if I fail I will learn something and just transition to make my channel better.

[@VEEDCREATORS]

I can see why you say that, but again - that was kind of the point of the experiment. It's mostly described as an "easy" money maker. Putting in a lot more effort, makes it less easy. By all means, I'd love you to prove me wrong about monetising this type of content - but I haven't seen anyone do it yet! I've got 2 channels monetised in under a year, so there are much better ways to build a successful channel if you ask me. Good luck :)

[@PositiveVibesVids]

@@VEEDCREATORS ah gotcha yes you are a hundred on it not being easy. I hope I can prove you wrong too. But honestly I don't even think my channel will fall into that category if I am making videos touring the country with my drone and nature trails and what not you would think right? Doing a tour of a cruise ship next week for virgin for starters.

Isnt that the truth about tutorials being a trend. It is actually probably becoming or is already just another brilliant niche itself. Great advice to just be wary or mindful of this.

[@zengagemotivational]

As I said in the comments of your previous video on this, starting a meditation channel on KZbin is not a get rich quick game. You cant just upload boring sounds and images that really have no meaning behind them or very little thought gone into them. People who watch this kind of content are not stupid and they do ask for videos with some substance. You cant expect a channel to be successful with only a few videos either. Sometimes it can happen for sure, but that is very rare. To get monetised, you have to be as original as possible and offer something that is worth subscribing and coming back to, time after time with each new video upload. And yes, keep away from videos that talk about riches from easy methods that anyone can do. That applies to anything on KZbin, not just the meditation category. To be successful on KZbin, you need to kep at it, and at it and at it until you finally start making some good money with your channel. But it has to be something of quality that people will want to come back to, over and over again.

[@nataliegian]

I put them to ambient space music that I personally love and have listened to for years, I'm at almost 1800 watch hours and 156 subscribers, the subs seems like it's going to be the main roadblock, but I would feel pretty bad putting in 2 years of work to have my channel rejected for monetization, do you have any way I can find out if this is even possible?

Thanks for this. I really wonder how these types of channels get monetized when the people watching them are using them as background sounds and not actually watching or are sleeping. I have KZbin premium, but if you don’t, it’s so weird to think that your relaxing sounds video could be interrupted by a constipation remedy commerical.

[@PurfectRelaxation]

We are working on adding alternate ways to make income now. Creating desktop wallpapers and phones based on our original artwork in our videos and a membership program as well. average view duration across the channel I think was an hour and 18 minutes. Will keep trying

[@TheDrawingGenie]

You can use masthead ads instead of skippable/ non skippable in stream ads, which definitely aids with the immersion. However, this definitely lowers estimated revenue and RPM

@@PurfectRelaxationhow is it going for u? have u been able to earn other ways?

[@Easy_Sleeping]

My channel is an ambient noise channel that is geared toward helping people sleep well (though the sounds can also be used for meditation, studying, etc.) I shoot all the video and audio myself. It is a lot of work going out in nature to record this stuff, then rendering 8 HRs of footage, then uploading that massive 4K file to KZbin. If I get to 1,000 subscribers and am not monetized, that’s going to be a BIG BLOW to me - all that time I spent making these videos for no reason. If I can get to the 1,000 subscriber mark and get 4,000 hours of watch time to apply for monetization, and I PROMISE I will do a video showing whether KZbin monetizes these kinds of channels or not when all of the content is original.

Hi, I tried a meditation channel a couple of years ago - results terrible! v similar to yourself...

I produced all my own content and yes it took a very long time to render and upload... I'd like to know your thoughts on how ASMR channels compare to meditation as there's practically no stock usage on the former but often very long vids... Subscribed, thanks for your work!!

[@PositiveVibesVids]

Are you POSITIVE even with original content you can't get monetized? I know there was something in 2019.. but it's cloudy. I am switching my channel to do tours around the world with music to make it unique I hope that is enough

Rewatch this section - 1:07

[@sahidhwasfound]

Can you tell me that can i monetized my channel content in future please reply

[@TheRealSoulPanda]

[@gafur1511]

Who going to meditate 10-hour in my opinion meditation music 1 hour to hour I meditated list twice a day and I never use those long music I would try to make guided meditation music Thanks for the video anyway it was useful

[@gordo80.]

But haven't got monetize

[@JuanSanchez-rb4qu]

Is almost like the real business is............making videos about making money off meditation channels, and sell you a course on how to do it. inb4 "but look at all the money they are making!" Leaving aside that anyone can photoshop or edit the HTML of the page to show whatever revenue they want is its telling that most of these people make their videos from a dingy apartment and can't even afford proper soundproofing despite making millions a year from all their very successful channels.

[@realityregenerator]

what about channels that have already been eligible for monetization but don't have 1000 subscribers yet

[@realityregenerator]

@Dhyanalytics thank you!

[@belugauwu1005]

Hi sir Is channels like" lovely cat" monetized through adsense

[@gregap8282]

KZbin is also about luck. I remember uploading a short I made for college, I totally forgot about it and a week or so later I had 10k views and 200 plus subs.

[@SirCorneliusPeregrine]

To save people copying and pasting a small audio loop hundreds of times to create a 10 hour audio, you can put it once into a DAW grab the right part of the track with the mouse and stretch it to 10 hours.

[@vividandgrey]

I create artistic videos that are truly one of a kind, each one is a short escapist experience. I seem to be getting my audience slowly, however I wish to try longer 1 hour versions of these. Would love it if ya'll can have a look and just leave your opinions on whether you think they'd work, or if you would be into that. Thanks! :)

[@MusikRelaksasidanMeditasi]

you should upload everyday man. not jut 30 videos for a month then stop. you have to make it a fun sidework. upload everyday for 1 year. you even just upload for 30 day and stop and you expect it will grow after 6 months. even you know, you just klick bait people to watch your channels. i dissapointed you stop posting for 1 month and you expect it will grow after 6 months.

[@rainyrelaxingsounds]

What category does meditation channel?

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Any channel that uses royalty free sounds and images to make relaxing content

[@ericar2647]

Relaxing sounds and meditation channels are two different things.

[@harryclements3884]

I'm curious to know if doing live videos would impact the outcome of monetisation on these channels.... What do you think?

[@VEEDCREATORS]

In what sense?

[@harryclements3884]

I’ve just seen a lot of live meditation/sleep videos lately and I wonder if that’s because it helps them get approved for monetisation.

[@practicalpran]

Not monetized

[@akashbiswas9532]

Hi, were you able to monetize your channel?

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Did you watch the video? 😂

Still wouldn't make any money ;)

My youtube channel name is "Relaxation & Meditation" Is this name true or not.please give me guidlienes.Thanks!

[@TheMartiano]

I think you hit it on the head bro when you say it is better to make video that interests the creator, rather than just make it to make money! Bullseye bro, thanks for the experiment, so I don't have to!

1:30 what if the "guru" grow up, develop himself, and LATER offer something valuable lol

[@mouseforcat]

video for cats is allowed ?

[@VEEDCREATORS]

What kind of videos are for cats?

[@charlie.on.youtube]

@@VEEDCREATORS I just found out about them a few days ago. Videos that keep your cat(s) interest. They seem to work too.

Next for KZbin: demonetize "how to monetize" videos 😉

[@VEEDCREATORS]

Haha

Found it😁

👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

[@N.R_gaming23]

I don't agree with you. My channel is one month old and without ANY knowledge at all I have almost 2k hours and 386 subscribers at this moment. It is a time consuming thing if you want to do good job and I do believe that just having one dimension videos won't get You far. But good luck

[@VEEDCREATORS]

That’s great, but do you think you will actually get monetised?

[@N.R_gaming23]
