First of all, let me clear that there is no quick way to become rich.
Second, I can bet that everyone has a potential to make a decent income online.
Ask yourself, why you pay money to anyone?
The easy answer is when someone solves your problem. You pay for food when you are hungry. You pay for cloths, health treatment, transport and many other things. People take money from you to provides you either a product or a service.
You can also earn money online by providing a product or service. Internet has more power than our physical word because you can reach out to millions of people through internet. You can become innovative and mix a product & service to earn money.
You can not earn money without solving a problem. And you need a skill to solve someone’s problem. Don’t get disappointed if you can’t figure out your skill that can be sold on the internet.

Everyone has skills but they ignore their valuable skills most of the time.

A lot of people are making tons of money from the YouTube. Some of the Indian examples are Mumbaikar Nikhil for bikes, Nisha Madhulika for cooking, GeekyRanjit for technology, AIB & Kannal Gill for comedy and the list goes on. All these people are at the top of ladder but they started somewhere, let’s see the various ways through which these people monetize.

#1. Advertising

Youtube content creators can monetize through the Youtube partner program, which is essentially Google AdSense for video content.
You must have seen the ads displayed before videos. In order to have ads appear within your Youtube videos and start making money, you need to join the youtube partner program where your youtube account needs to be linked with your google adsense account. Once done, you will get paid as cost per view which is a variable factor.
On an average one gets $1 – $2 per 1000 views. Besides, monetization also depends on the type of your audience and country.

#2. Affiliate marketing

Youtube affiliate marketing is the process in which you create videos and place affiliate links either in the videos or the video description.
Many times when a Youtuber showcases a product and asks you to buy it from a link in the description, he is actually doing affiliate marketing, which is referring you a product to buy. When users ends up buying, then the youtuber makes money in the form of affiliate commissions.

You can see how youtubers link products in the description box.
You can opt for Amazon / Flipkart affiliate program or approach brands related to your niche and start linking their products to make money. You can make 10-13% commission on Amazon, Flipkart, and around 10% commission on other brands.

#3. Direct promotion (Sponsorship)

This is similar to affiliate marketing but here you get paid a fixed amount of money instead of conversion/sales based commission . The whole videos are made keeping in mind that they have to promote the brand by making it the center of attraction. Here is an example of a paid video on a channel called Unbox Therapy sponsored by McDonald’s.
Rates are decided on the amount of views you get on your videos. It can range from Rs 1000-5000 for early youtubers to as high as Rs 10,000-50,000 for top youtubers.

#4. Paid videos

There are many channels who charge you to access their content. Vsauce, a youtube channel, is a perfect example. It is not advised to start charging initially but once you have a niche and are flourishing pretty well then you can start charging for a few videos. Rates can vary from Rs 50 – Rs 200 depending on duration and niche.

#5. Crowdsourcing

In Crowdsourcing model, you take help of internet users to start a service, run a company, or launch a product. Khan academy is a very popular educational channel where they daily upload videos on a wide variety of topics for school and college students. All their videos are free, although they ask for donations to help them keep going.
You too can crowdsource donations in form of money or resources that will help you in making  content for your audience. You can start accepting donations by creating a instamojo account.

#6. Direct sell your products

If you already have a product which you can sell, then don’t shy away from showcasing it to your audience to sell it. Many youtubers have even started to sell their own merchandise of clothes as a way to make money.
You can provide a link to your product and help your audience understand it’s value so that people will appreciate and buy your product.

#7. Customer leads for your business

A very popular educational channel called Gate Lectures by Ravindrababu Ravula makes videos for engineering students, though all his videos are free but to get access to the whole course, you need to go to his website and purchase the whole course. That way he leads his audience to his business.
Content is the king, always work on making your content worthy as your audience will happily follow you if you make them wanting for more.
Those were the different ways through which you can monetize your videos on Youtube. But, if you plan to create a youtube channel and start making money you can refer this article of mine where I show how to do it through a step by step process  starting YouTube Channel and making money from YouTube.
