How YouTubers Are Getting More Famous Than TV Stars

There was a time when everyone was just dreaming of becoming a TV star one day and we would do anything to get in the shot of those journalists filming their segments outside. Who would have thought we would end up in the era where everyone could have their own show, the audience, and could even become as popular as Hollywood stars we are all familiar with.

Social media, specifically YouTube has changed the game completely. Now turning our wishes into reality and following our dreams is much easier than it has ever been - no stress, no auditions, no people trying to get the most out of you... it’s just you, your video camera and the internet.

Why everyone wants to be a YouTube star?

One of the greatest things about YouTube is that it’s just for everybody. No matter who you are, what content you are making, and what goals you have, you will most likely be able to find an audience for yourself, that will appreciate the work you put into your content and most importantly relate to them. I mean...there are people getting millions of views on videos of them eating food or claiming the biggest mountains. Believe me, there are no limits, you can film anything and you will still be able to gain fans as long as you will do it right.

The second exciting part of YouTube is the ability to generate an income through ads. Google’s AdSense program puts ads on your videos and pays you a percentage of the profit and actually, it’s not small - as long as you are gaining a good amount of views, you could build your wealth through YouTube.

Additionally, a big number of views mean the big following, which grows the possibilities of earning even better money by either getting sponsors on your videos or selling your own good to your audience.

How YouTubers gain so much fame?

There is no doubt that social media is getting more and more popular each day and that’s exactly what allows YouTubers or other social media creators to get so much attention.

More than half of humanity already owns a social media account and prefers spending time watching YouTube videos instead of turning on TV where you don’t really get much choice on what to watch, you will just have to go with one of the options its offering, but when it comes to YouTube, you could find anything that crosses your mind - you want to listen to someone playing the piano? They have it there, you want to watch people cook? They have got you, you want to learn some life hacks? They have millions of those!

Even good old TV stars are joining YouTube’s platform after releasing that it is slowly replacing all the traditional ways of gaining supporters and growing a huge name for yourself. Come on, we even got YouTube on our TV so we don’t have to watch boring TV shows anymore.
