- How much money do motovloggers make on TH-cam? We'll go over how much my motorcycle / motovlog TH-cam channel made in 2021. I'll break down how much I made each month when I had between 2,300 and 5,000 subscribers so you can have an idea of what your motorcycle channel would make, or how much your favorite motovloggers are making on TH-cam.

Thanks Adrian, I really enjoyed your video and wish you continued success. maybe one day I'll get there but for now, I'm paying for the privilege of making videos. At least Im making new friends and finding new destinations. Cheers dave
Thanks brother. I'm a firm believer in what Public Enemy said:, "Before you get what you want, gotta give the people what they need." So I try to offer a little more every week. If it all adds up to something in the end, that would be ideal, but if not, at least I'm helping a few people and enjoying the process along the way! Sounds like we're likeminded on this :)
@@YouMotorcycle Hey Adrian, continued success, cheers Dave
informative video. Thank you.
So nice of you, thanks man
Yep, it ain't all glamour and glitz, that's for sure! I'm not monetized [yet] but I have already put in close to 2,000 hours and way more than that in $$$ in the year and a half I've been making videos. I find it an enjoyable hobby, so while I'm not making any money at it, I'm getting many more benefits from it. Great vid - I prefer when creators are transparent with their viewers - the struggle is real!
Thanks brother. It's a labor of love. You definitely don't get into it for the instant success and big time payouts
@@YouMotorcycle Nope! 100% truth here!
Yeah man. I've enjoyed checking in on you guys' rides, especially the two up ones, would love to see a walkthrough of your setup for two up vlogging.
@@YouMotorcycle Thanks man! That's a great idea - I could do a talking head video on how I set up the cameras for that ride, and how I edited it - the 2nd part may be more interesting, since there isn't a lot of info out there on that part :D
@@RoadReality Don't forget the mics! Being able to record audio from both riders is very cool.
Thanks for sharing this. It's a grind for sure, but I enjoy doing it.
No problem. I think I will probably do a half year update on this as things are really picking up!
Great informative video that feels pretty down to earth on the topic, I also love your b-roll you have going behind your graphs too!
Thanks! There was a story being told in the b-roll, I'm just not sure what it is exactly 😂
Interesting vid, and good to put it into context with minimum wage. Your channel did great for growth though over the single year, doubling in size, awesome stuff!
Thanks man! It looks like 5-6 of my most popular videos this month were from 2021, but the rest were some oldies from the past who's coat tails I am still riding on. Glad I see I can get by on a mix of my new stuff and my "Greatest Hits" classics lol
Interesting video, for a motovlogger I think you are doing pretty good! 😎
Haha thanks man. Just a small fish in a big pond 🐟 🌎
Wow thanks for sharing all this information, very helpful, keep up the good work, great videos brother,
Thank you very much. Happy to keep on doing it no matter what it pays :)
Hi Adrian - Interesting. I've never known what the financial aspects of a TH-cam content producer entailed. I really like your channel and always learn something new after watching your vids. I hope you can continue with the videos and get more views and subscribers in 2022.
Thanks Paul, I see all of your messages of encouragement and appreciate them. You're a class act brother 🙏
Cool vid mate. Thanks for sharing. I’ve not monetised yet out of respect to a family in the US who has been bullied and harassed by online true crime conspiracy theorists. I won’t monetise until those creators are taken off SM. Appreciate your honesty. Cheers
Cheers brother, thank you. Something to look into: I *think* that TH-cam has recently started to put ads on videos that aren't necessarily monetized by the creators. In other words, their new policies let them run ads on your videos with or without you. In that case, you might be better off just collecting the money and donating it at the end of the year. Something to look into/consider.
Good work, brotha! Keep it up!
Thanks Jon, I appreciate this. I've watched a ton of your videos including a lot of the income report ones!
Very good. I have always wondered how growing but already monetized channels do. I looked at last year and most of my views and growth came from Mid October to the end of the year. But, I dropped 35K on a new bike.... I clearly have some work to do!! Cheers Adrian. Keep'em comin we're watching.
That's more than my entire fleet of bikes combined 😂👌 anyways thank you sir and one step at a time!
@@YouMotorcycle Believe me I wish I had a fleet. But when you start riding after you retire (like me).... you have make some choices.
Makes sense. I started in my late teens, so I grew up on used shitbox motorcycles. My first motorcycle was older than I was. After that, anything less than 20 years old seems "new enough" for me lol
I like your work. Keep it up.
Thanks so much, I appreciate this!
saw your article now watching your videos
Very cool, thanks and Merry Christmas!
it would be happy Eid insha Allah after Ramadan fasting
@@Borderwheels that too! :)
Hey you did better than me but I just 1000 halfway through last year. I’m not doing this full time, I like to enjoy it and post my simple once a week vids. Sometimes they take off and I have a good month, otherwise it’s a $20 a month gig. Not bad for something I’d be doing anyway is the way I look at it.
The community buys you a tank of gas every month, not bad!
Thanks for sharing this. TH-cam is just not that simple like most people believe. It is a long run job. You got my like here.
p.s. By the way... the CPM is?
Thanks! RPM about $4.50ish. CPM about $10ish.
@@YouMotorcycle Thanks for the answer. Appreciate it.
Interesting stuff. I've only recently started making videos in any sustained way. The idea of making money isn't really on my radar now. I've been blogging for over 15 years, have about 1500 posts with over 7000 original photos and nearly a million words. Millions of views and I haven't made a nickel. I never was interested in monetizing the blog. I thought I would finish a book or two and sell those but the whole thing is still a personal project for myself.
But if I could make 50 or a 100 bucks a month -- that would cover my riding diner costs!
YouMotorcycle.com is about the same size. If you start running Google AdSense on your site you will very quickly make many times the money to cover your diner tab!
@@YouMotorcycle I’ve never been able to get past the look of ads on a blog so I just didn’t do it. On TH-cam it feels different.
If I ever make money on my blog it will be via the books I’m writing. If I ever finish!
No one reads any more brother. I wrote an outline for a book for motorcyclists. The outline alone was about 16 pages. Then I looked at the traffic trends for the blog vs the youtube channel and realized if I really wanted to help riders out I was better off putting all of my knowledge and stories into video.
@@YouMotorcycle I know you're right about no one reading. Or at least far fewer are interested in reading when video is an alternative. I'm not ready to close the door on my blog but I suspect I may post less frequently as video production increases.
You'll probably laugh, but this topic was on my schedule to do this month. I don't want to be a copycat so I'll pass on doing this video on my channel but the takeaway for the public is, uts like paying to go to work for the first few years assuming your content is a success. Eric
It is definitely paying to go to work. Or at least working to break even. Dude, may as well do the video anyway. Or check to see if anyone cares to watch mine first lol. The more information out there for people the better. Don't let me or anyone else throw ya off your course brother. It's all good! :)
Keep growing ! and maybe work towards levering your investments of time and equipment into a gig to be some companies media and rep guy ?
That's kind of where I came from. I used to work in Marketing for companies like Goodyear/Dunlop, KYMCO, Harley-Davidson, and even a local dealership here. Went out to do my own thing. Having a lot more fun. I would like to bring paid sponsorships though, so I have a few reviews coming up. I'll be sharing with you guys what products I got for free vs paid for myself vs have been paid to review, just to keep everything totally transparent and maintain credibility! If something sucks, you can bet the video will be titled "5 Reasons Why _____ Sucks and You Shouldn't Buy It" lol
I am not monetized yet. It will be a while before I do, lol. I not doing this for the money, as we all know, you not going to get rich. This is a hobby. When I do get monetized, then what ever I make, will be put back into the channel . Nice video. Thanks for sharing.
Yep, pretty much what I'm doing at this point. It all goes back in the channel. WOuld be nice to actually keep a couple of these paycheques at some point but for now that's not happening lol
I'm quite pleased I don't count the hours creating vids or see my channel as work. I'm guessing I would be below the minimum wage.
It's a labor of love! 😂
ADRIAN, i like your channel and helped me get my 03 bmw dakar....but your background videos are wild, from chicks making out, to a heart attack? Would have been better with motorcycles
Lol, thanks, I guess? The backgrounds are telling a story arch of a life cycle. I'm not sure if you caught it so I'll spell it out real quick.
In Jan and Feb everything is frozen, nothing is moving.
Mar & Apr you see the first signs of life.
May & Jun things people are out and about.
Jul, Aug, Sep, the people are coming together, the life cycle is peaking.
By Oct what used to be fast and exciting is now slow and old
In Nov its dying and by Dec its dead.
It's the life cycle of the seasonal youtube channel, and it's being reflected in the video in the background. Jan and feb are the slowest months, where nothing moves, but by march it takes off all over again, and then once more it all comes to a halt in the end... until we do it all again. The nature of a seasonal motorcycle youtube channel's life cycle, reflected in the background videos.
TH-cam won't even monetize me still, so it doesn't even matter for me. But you know TH-cam doesn't pay out well when the full timers are scrambling and whining about views and subs. TH-cam just isn't a place to go full time anymore.
I'm hoping you're wrong. It's already opened up some doors with paid sponsorships and so on. I think the value comes from growing the brand rather than growing the income directly from the TH-cam revenue, until you start to get a real compounding effect... Then again, if I don't hit my targets for 2022 I will probably scale back how much time I put in by a lot, so we'll see lol
@@YouMotorcycle Then you have to walk the line of being a salesman for your stuff and actually putting out content. Thats why I don't push my stuff that hard.
@@BlackphoenixEntertainment depends on why you're doing it I guess. All my videos are aimed at helping people, promoting the vids is part of the job, because if I make these videos and no one sees them, they haven't helped anyone lol
I am disappointed i didn't see the Asian couple kissing in the background
I think they had to go to the hospital 😆
After taxes and expenses your probably in the red.
lol yeah man, I mean, at least when you're reporting the income you can also write off the equipment, but yeah, it doesn't add up to much financially unfortunately
@@YouMotorcycle I know believe me 🙂
And yet still we do it. It's a strange one, this addiction lol
@@YouMotorcycle 😂😂😂 yes it is
