How do Youtube Beauty Gurus Make Money?

Many future gurus are curious how established beauty vloggers have turned a hobby into a full time job. Here are the standard ways Youtubers make money from their videos:

1. Adsense:

Adsense is a program developed by Google. Advertisers bid to have their ads run near or on a video. Google keeps a portion of the proceeds and passes a portion onto the content creator. Ads either stream before a video and must be watched in full or run near or on top of a video and must be clicked on to receive compensation.

In the past Youtubers had to be accepted into the Partner Program to be eligible for monetization, but the website has begun offering this opportunity to most anyone who uploads a video. Gurus can track their earnings through the Adsense dashboard. Once the account has reached a total of $100, Google will payout the total by the end of the following month.

2. Gifted/Gratis product:

Now, some will argue that this isn't getting paid, but at the very minimum it is a fringe benefit. Once a guru builds up a strong reputation online and has a large and interactive audience, it is likely that she (or he) will be contacted by companies and public relations firms and sent cosmetic samples to try. The hope is that the Youtuber will mention the products in a video which creates buzz and brand exposure. Some groups will send a sample to use and a sample to giveaway to viewers. It is expected that a guru place a FTC claim in the description to notify the audience that the items were gifted.

3. Sponsored:

This takes the gifted scenario up a notch. The Youtuber is actually paid to review a product in a video. Since this is just another form of advertising, it is expected that the company will have some say over the video's content. Gurus definitely have to indicated the sponsorship. It doesn't always have to be a beauty product. It could be a "shout-out" and a link to another channel who is trying to build an audience.

4. Affiliate Programs: 

Affiliate programs allow a guru to link to an item in an online store as a recommendation. If someone purchases something through the link, then the Youtuber receives a portion of the sale called a commission. There are many programs like this across the web, but one of the most popular is Amazon.

5. Blog Advertising: 

Many gurus have a blog along with their YT channel. The two really go hand-in-hand. They can include Adsense ads on the blog which are automatically placed there by Google. Or, they can sell their own ad space at their own monthly rates which guarantees a set amount of income.

6. Company Representative: 

Some of the more well-known gurus have partnered with online companies to become the "face" of a brand. Haulerdeals is an example of a company using this form of marketing. Each guru discusses the company and the products it sells on her channel and is paid for it. An example of this type of arrangement is Haulerdeals.

7. Open Online Store:

Some gurus open a store to sell items they have hand selected or have made. They may sell through Etsy or through a stand-alone website. They let their audience know when new items are available and urge them to check them out. They are responsible for the shipping and handling of these items.

  2. Google Adsense is an easy way to make money from your blog. All you need to do is add a script from Google to your website and start displaying ads.
    You will get paid for every time a user clicks on the ad. These are called CPC ads.
    What is CPC? CPC stands for “cost per click.” By displaying CPC ads with Google Adsense, you receive a set fee every time an ad on your website is clicked by a visitor. The cost per click is set by the advertiser. (This is in contrast to CPM ads, where you’re paid for ad views instead of clicks. CPM means “cost per thousand impressions,” where M is the roman numeral for 1,000.)
    Google Adsense is a good way to start earning money online when you are first starting out.
    You can see our guide on how to monetize a WordPress blog with Google AdSense to get started, and this tutorial on how to optimize your AdSense revenue for more tips.
