Title: Suggestion on YouTube Cooking Channel
Post by: mu_enrico on May 15, 2024, 03:46:18 PM
Hi guys, I want to create a YouTube cooking channel with my wife since she needs more activities and as a side project to earn some money. Do any of you have created a YouTube channel and can monetize it? How much money can you get from, let's say, 1000 subscribers, 10,000 subscribers, 1,000 views, 10,000 views, etc.?

Any tips and tricks to become successful in this project? It can be about anything from naming the channel, device to record, software to edit, how to grow the channel, learning material, whatever... Your input is highly appreciated, thanks!

I found some videos related to the earnings from other Youtubers like this one[1], but I'm not sure if you've already watched it or not. Have you tried lurking around the newtubers subreddit or cooking communities? You'll have bigger chances to get input from them instead of this forum IMO. The numbers vary quite wildly as far as I can see, not to mention where your viewers watch/demographic also affects this. I followed a few channels from their early days to this day, from gaming to horror channels. Based on what I see their main income comes from brand deals instead of YouTube ads nowadays.

I don't feel comfortable asking this kind of question there since it's too general, many people are asking the same question -> and it probably will be downvoted to oblivion ;D
Here or on bitcointalk is where I am familiar with most of the members.


From the above link, it's quite lucrative (from the 3rd world standard), perhaps I should make videos without human talking since it can be for a global audience and not just local. $15k is enough for a year's living cost here, and he's not actively posting new videos! Crazy!

Maybe it's a local channel so the AdSense revenue is pretty low.

Yeah, that's a good result. I agree that targeting a global audience is better for income since the rate is higher than ID viewers, although I'm not sure how to promote your channel. Maybe provide subtitles in ID, and EN, and auto-generate the subs for other languages? The choice of the dish matters too. Making a recipe for local cuisine alone probably won't be enough to attract interest from global audience.

if you are open to traveling to other places and just try out the unique food in a certain place i think they will appreciate it when someone vlogs or write about it. this will gain your followers as well.  and then your wife cooks a version of that food.

there usually is a expat community in every estate. lets say you are from Cali, then you find the Irish expat community because they might be able to share the kind of dish they have. there are tons of expat community, maybe visit the China town or try street food like Balut.

i wonder how to make money out of this also, i have a youtube channel with 800 subscribers already. i am just uploading random videos i took. no real niche really.

Maybe I could make something similar to an ASMR video since it can be viewed globally without translation problems. However, I don't have a studio-quality setup, so let's see how it can be enhanced via editing.

Related to promotion, well, perhaps I can wear a signature for it when my current contract ends and no one interested in renting it ;D It's the only free way other than WoM marketing with IRL circles. I'm curious about whether links from signatures have an impact on SEO as well.

The idea is for my wife to cook at home since if it's traveling then I must accompany her as well, and it takes too much effort just for her hobby lol ;D
But yeah, asking the original cook/chef to demonstrate their skill is a good idea, probably will do it if the channel has enough income.

800 subscribers without serious effort are good! If you put more effort and resources into it, perhaps you can grow your channel mate...

Oh, that's an interesting idea. I've seen similar channels, including street food vendors documenting how they cook their food and their daily activity as sellers in general. Some of them have millions of views too, so I guess the market is quite big. Not sure how friendly videos like those are for the algorithm though, because I've seen a sharp decline in some channels too. I guess you can only upload as frequently as you can to make sure the algorithm doesn't drop your channel.

Although the idea is interesting, it may take a lot of time to rank a channel with this content because there are many cooking channels. But in different countries the list is different so all the dishes have to be prepared which is very modern and unique. Moreover if you need to update such videos frequently, then the algorithm will support you and use special popular tags. Because by using popular tag, your video will reach the target people. Moreover you have to make small short videos and upload them every day because through this both the views and subscribers of your channel will increase.

It is now considered a very good job.  And people turn to YouTube to learn new cooking recipes.  Especially the bachelor community choose YouTube to learn cooking. So I would personally suggest it as a very good medium to earn some income.  If you share some good and unique recipes, your audience will increase.  And once your monetization is on your income will start.  In that case you need 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours of watch time.  I find it very timely.  So you can do it.
