How much money do YouTube partners make? This is one of the most-asked questions when it comes to YouTube and their rev share program. Last summer we posted on how much money the top grossing YouTube partners are making, as reported by Business Insider. Back then it was estimated that the top 10 YouTube partners were making over $100,000 per year. New 2011 statistics show that this number is increasing by leaps and bounds. Today a few hundred YouTube partners are pulling in a whopping six figures a year.
These updated statistics, released in a USA Today article last month and quoted in a recent post by Kevin Nalty aka Nalts, provides a variety of mind-blowing statistics about YouTube partners and their income. The statistics are as follows:
- There are over 20,000 people that are YouTube Partners.
- According to YouTube spokesman Matt McLernon, ad revenue is shared between YouTube and their partners, “with more than 50% going to the partner.”
- The number of partners that are making over $1,000 per month is up 300% since early 2010.
- A few hundred YouTube partners are pulling in six figures a year.
According to the USA Today article, YouTube is hoping to increase the number of partners that are earning six figures. Tom Sly, YouTube’s head of strategic partner development and programs, stated that, “For a growing number of people, [YouTube] is not a hobby, it’s a career, and we’re just trying to move them up the ladder faster.” For this reason, YouTube has recently launched a number of new initiatives, including the YouTube Creator Institute and the NextUp program, as part of their acquisition of Next New Networks. I’m curious to see how much more YouTube partner income increases in the coming year.
Are you surprised by these new statistics? How many YouTubers do you expect will be making six figures by 2012?

The economic uncertainty of the next few years is leaving people to wonder if they will even have a job next year. With budgets already tight, many families are struggling to keep one job and still have difficulties making ends meet. The good news is that you can begin to supplement your income this year by taking advantage of online opportunities in blogging, podcasting, and writing for others. If you’re passionate about something, you can find a way to express yourself in the online world and eventually start to make extra money from it.
Making Money With A Blog
While blogging has great long term potential, don’t expect to make money with a blog right away. If you’re looking for a way to express your passion while taking advantage of potential income opportunities like Adsense or affiliate products, starting a blog is a great place to begin. It’s common for bloggers to see small earnings in the first year, but don’t expect to pay for your mortgage right away. With consistent posting and a commitment to providing good information to your online community, you can start to see a few extra dollars.
Writing For Other Sites
One of the best ways to land a job writing for others is by writing your own blog and getting an invitation to join a staff writing team. You can, however, find legitimate writing jobs online that pay well. One of the newest resources is the ProBlogger job board, which lists the job requests of companies who are hiring writers. Topics range from technology to fashion and can pay from $10 an article to $75 and up.
