Ever since this video sharing platform was launched in 2005, it has consistently grown thereby turning ordinary people into millionaires. YouTube has been so instrumental in shaping a generation. It has created jobs for these bloggers. In fact, if it were not for YouTube, these folks would probably be living a pathetic life somewhere. Thankfully, they can attribute their success to YouTube and its ever growing network of users.
And in line with this, we have zeroed down to some of the highest paid YouTubers known today. They make their fortune by monetizing their home-made videos of what they love to do. Here’s the list:
1 PewDiePie
This guy’s real name is Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg. He is currently the highest paid vLogger on YouTube who pulls a neat $12 million dollar in annual income. He plays video games while commentating in the background. This has earned him up to 39.8m subscribers on his network. Now, to put this into better perspective, we will just say that this amount is far more than what movie stars Gwyneth Paltrow or Cameron Diaz made in 2015.
2 Smosh
The Smosh brothers appear in the top 10 least of the highest paid people who make others laugh for a living. They create parody videos of movies, video games, popular TV hits and such like stuff. Others have followed in their footsteps, although they have not managed to be as successful as the two. Smosh are currently commanding 21.3m subscribers in their network.
3 Lindsey Stirling
Lindsey Stirling has a following of 7 million subscribers. Her niche is special since she is the only artist in the top 10 who puts up violin shows while dancing. She even covers popular hip hop tracks which has consequently catapulted her to stardom to the point that she even appeared on TV show, America’s Got Talent. What is more, she has also performed music for video games like Halo and Zelda.
4 Rhett & Link
This funny duo has netted some 3.7 million subscribers as a result of their funny music clips and other activities. They are known as the Internetainers, and it’s for a very good reason why this name fits them. And by the way, Epic Rap Battle is the most popular title they ever did together. This clip got some 27m views. Now, what you might have noticed is that their subscriber base is not that large. But the fact that they have earned big amount of money through sponsorship and other commercial video clips is just enough to qualify them in the top 10 list of wealthy vLoggers.
5 Michelle Phan
She commands some 8 million subscribers who are interested in learning how to apply makeup to get the coveted Lady Gaga look. She gives her makeup and beauty lessons on YouTube. As a result, she even raised a tidy sum of $100m to support her new makeup delivery business called Ipsy. One of her most popular works on YouTube include ”how to get the Babie look”. It currently has an impressive view of 62 million.
