How Much Money Do We Make?
- TheHegemon 7y agoNowhere in the article does it actually say how much money they have made.
- evrydayhustling 7y agoYeah, the (vague) takeaway I get is that AdSense is a small part of their income, with majority coming from direct brand deals. Since it all comes out of the same marketing budgets eventually, does this mean integrated influencer advertising is meaningfully undercutting digital ads run by the platforms?
- dependsontheq 7y agoNot meaningfully no - most influencer campaigns have a part for ads to support the content so I think in the Balance it probably builds more ad business.
- conductr 7y agoI think it’s against TOS of YouTube to publish earnings??
- corgi2020 7y agoIt might just also be clickbait
- GhostVII 7y agoIf you want to actually get a pretty decent idea of how much you can make, someone made a good video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do1VLjNg6AE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do1VLjNg6AE Your earnings vary a lot based on what kind of video you make so it's somewhat complex.

- nodesocket 7y agoCall me a cynic, but it feels very typically hypocritical for the author to be a feminist and proponent for women’s social change yet repeatedly post half naked pictures of herself and partner on social media and Instagram. You have to admit the absolute double standard and conflicting message there.
- GhostVII 7y agoWhat is the conflicting message there?
- nodesocket 7y agoalong the lines of “Men objectify women and treat them based on their looks...” Proceeds to post sexy and half naked pics for exposure and thus advertising revenue.
- conductr 7y agoI have been in a few respectful conversations with alternating views. Usually in their view, it’s men’s fault for sexualizing the female body. Just like if a 13 y/o girl it wearing “skimpy” clothes it’s adult men who are the perverts for sexualizing a child. Not saying I agree. But I’m also not pro slut shaming. I don’t think men can really turn this off. Like the kid thing; 1) relatively new and completely subjective concept that <18 is off limits (we’ve literally decided as society that peek fertility is off limits) (feel obligated to say I do agree with the decision in current society where mental maturity comes later) 2) men can and probably have sexualized every possible think, even something like a bee hive. It’s a major part of our brain and I’m not sure how these women just think we can turn off an instinct.
- watt 7y agoMental maturity AND solves overpopulation.
- journalctl 7y agoI don’t have to admit that, because it’s not true. If women doing whatever they want with their bodies (be that showing them off or covering them up) isn’t feminism, then I don’t know what is.
- nabdab 7y agoI call bullshit. They are telling me they probably make less than I expect they make, but if they actually gave numbers I’m certain it’s far above what most expect and that they would in the light of the actual facts appear quite greedy for wanting more. If that’s not he case I’m unsure why they push this vague cop out of an attempt to argue why more is justifiable without actually answering the title questions. Provide the numbers.
- t0mbstone 7y agoNot that I care (I don't even know who these people are), but the statement, "We don't make enough to cover our mortgage or our bills"... doesn't really tell me anything. For example, what is your mortgage? $1000 a month, or $15K a month? And how much of your "bills" are from credit card charges from shopping sprees or whatever?
