How to Earn Money from YouTube without AdSense ?

I'm gonna tell you 10 different ways to make money without AdSense. And it doesn't matter if you're a big channel or a small channel.

If you don't wanna rely on ads, I'm gonna tell you exactly what you need to do, and we're starting right now.

Okay, the first thing that I wanna say is, that you are reading this article because you're wanting to learn how to make money from your channel.

So, do not sell yourself short by bouncing back, make sure that you read this entire article, because there's something in this list for you.

And, as we're getting into this, I want you to think Youtube as nothing more than a traffic source, instead of an ad platform.

If you can make that change in the way that you're thinking about Youtube, it's going to make a humongous difference on how you approach everything it is that you're doing on your channel.

How to Monetize YouTube Channel without AdSense ?

1.Website

Okay, so the very first way to make money on Youtube without relying on ads, is to set up a blogger website.

When you do that, that is going to give you the ability to send people from Youtube to your blogger website, where you can make money from ads, or you can make money from other things that are on this list.

I want you to think of your website as a very valuable resource.

As we're going through this entire list, I want you to think about how you could apply some of the things in this list to your website, so that you can amplify what it is that you're doing over there, as well.

And, the great thing about having a website is, they don't have all of the requirements that you have on Youtube.

On Youtube, you gotta have 4,000 hours of watch time, or you have to have a thousand subscribers or whatever.

On your own website, you do not have those requirements that you have to jump through in order to monetize your website.

So, using Youtube as the traffic source that's going to send people over to your website where you can monetize the viewers there.

2. Affiliate Marketing

The second thing that you can do, which is extremely popular all over the internet in general.

I mean it's kind of what makes the internet work is affiliate marketing.

Now, how does this Affiliate Marketing work ?

So, basically with affiliate marketing, you set up with companies.

Let's say Amazon as an example because it's the easiest.

You set up an account with Amazon.

Then, if you send somebody to Amazon by your affiliate link. And if they buy something, then you will get a commission of that sale.

On Amazon specifically, you don't even have to sell anything that they directly clicked on to look at.

So, if you're sending them there for camera equipment, and they're buying diapers within the first 24 hours of them clicking on your link, you're still gonna get a commission of those diapers.

Isn't this pretty awesome ?

3. Donation Page

Okay, the next one on the list here is very cool.

If you are a live streamer or if you just want to set up a link where people can actually donate directly to you Streamlabs actually offers a way that you can do that.

So, you put a link in your description, somebody can click on it and pay via Paypal, or via credit card to donate to whatever your cause happens to be.

And, the really cool thing about that is, you don't have to have any monetization enabled on Youtube.

You don't have to have your adsense on and the ability to accept super chats, because it's all done in the streamlabs end.

Youtube doesn't have anything to do with it.

So, even if you fall under those requirements, you can still make a few extra bucks by using stream labs.

4. Selling Digital Products

Number four, if you create any type of creative content, you can sell digital products.

Even not necessarily creative content, if you make content to where you can create some type of digital product that you can sell from it, then you can sell digital products.

It can be a template pack, photoshop PSD, lightroom presets.

It can be anything like that, but you can set up a store.

If you don't have a website to set up a store, that's where Sellfy comes into work.

Sellfy actually allows you to create a page where you can set up your store.

You can send people directly from your Youtube channel to your Sellfy page.

And on your Sellfy page, Sellfy allows you to take payments from people, to where you can sell any type of digital product.

5. Course

Number five, if you have knowledge in your brain or a certain skill set that you think people would be willing to pay for in terms of the information that you can share with them, you can create a course.

Now, with creating a course there's usually some up front money that you're gonna have to put out.

You're gonna have to put out some up front time, but the return on courses can be huge.

I have a handful of friends that make a ton of money off of courses.

So if you have information like that in your brain that you think other people would pay for, then definitely courses are a fantastic way for you to make money off of your Youtube channel.

6. Merchandise

You can set up merchandise through Teespring, Amazon Merch, etc.

Basically, the idea is that you create designs and upload those designs to one of those sites, and then you can send your Youtube viewers to those sites.

If they make a purchase, then you of course, get a commission for that purchase.

Now, here's the thing, if you do like an Amazon Merch Account, you can make an entire store that's not necessarily branding just your channel, but it can be targeting your main demographic of people.

Same thing with all of these sites.

Instead of making it to where you're just trying to promote your own brand, you can make it to where you're basically putting together a bunch of different items so that people that are interested in your topics would be interested in wearing.

As an example again, on the Photoshop tutorial thing, you know, in your particular store you could have something like, you know, "Photoshoppers Do It Better."

You know, something like that, just as an idea off the top of my head.

So, it is another great idea to make money on YouTube.

7. Sponsorship

The next one on the list is sponsorship.

That's another great way to make money without ads.

Now, how do you get sponsorship ?

There is some work involved in this one also.

You will have to send out a bunch of emails, or contact a bunch of people on Linkedin, local businesses or whatever.

You will have to find companies that are in line with the type of content that you're making, and you try to get sponsorships.

The next way is through Patreon or other crowdfunding type of places to where you can put additional content.

And, get people that are watching your Youtube videos to head over there and support over there.

Of course, this all works better if you are offering something good in return, instead of just setting up like a donation page.

The income depends on how you structure everything, and what your plan is.

Otherwise, Patreon and other services like it can be extremely helpful for making money without having to rely on ads.

8. URL Shortener

The next one on this list is URL Shortener.

I might give some links in your description or community.

You can shorten those links through the URL shortener website.

And the really cool thing about this is instead of paying to them, you get paid.

There are many URL Shortener websites which pay per view.

There are many YouTubers who have to provide some useful links in their video's description.

So, it's a very nice way to earn money through YouTube without AdSense.

9. Subscription Service

Another one on this list is, using a service like Uscreen, or another type of subscription service to where you can send people from your Youtube channel to get exclusive content.

Now, you can use a service like them for membership stuff and exclusive content.

Stuff that you're not putting on your Youtube channel, you can send people directly from your channel to sign up there.

You can collect a monthly recurring stream of income from your Uscreen channel, or another service that's similar to them.

10. Etsy Store

If you can create a physical product that would be a fantastic fit for the people that are watching your videos.

You do not have to have a ton of viewers in order to make a really good additional side income or even a full time.

As an example, let's say that you have a Youtube channel where you are showing character costumes from different movies, different TV series, etc.

One thing that you could do is create an Etsy store and link people over there through your YouTube channel.

You can generate some sales that way and actually earn a lot of bucks.

Conclusion

So these were some methods through which you can make $1000 per month through your YouTube channel.
