How much do youtubers get paid and why they make so much money. I will provide and in depth explanation to how their channel is growing based on average views, subscribers, social media followings. Some of these channels I watched for a long time, and some I recently just discovered. There's a lot of people on Youtube that you probably didn't hear about until you seen my videos on them. I provide a good long video discussion on the youtuber and their success as well as current earnings. All the values are just an estimate, but it's a pretty close estimate, and I know that because I do Youtube myself.
