When can I find documentaries that I can upload to pic related?

So i'm making around £3k on YouTube monthly by uploading copyrighted documentaries and filling them with ads. I get around 840000 views a month on my channel to make that. Only around half of my stuff is monetised.

How dangerous do you think this is? I mean I'm making some serious money here and starting to get a little scared.

So, I've been thinking about making setting up my old laptop to automatically go through some news sites, crawl through the info, get the pictures and text, spin the text and then edit this shit into a short video which then would be then uploaded to YouTube.

What do you think? Could it actually become profitable?

I've already encountered multiple channels working on a similar principle, but I believe their movies are still made by a human - who I assume requires some sort of payment, so the revenue from ads must be enough to sustain this sort of business.

i was thinking about starting a youtube gaming channel. it's very easy to do and you just have to be interesting and funny, which i think i am.

it looks like an easy money grab, give one reason i shouldn't, i just to need to buy a gaming desktop

Can you actually make money out of YouTube?
So, a friend of mine rendered and added some effects to a movie and uploaded it to youtube. After a month or so, movie got around 100k watch and he gained 500$. Is there any tricks? Is anyone out there making money out of youtube without creating content?

How are you supposed to make money off youtube monetization when they ban content that could get you millions of views on your channel like ass and titties, or even more vanilla stuff like fetish porn?

Is YouTube the most laughable employment?

Is there still money in this? Will it bottom out some day?

Hey /biz/, I'm thinking of starting a YouTube to complement my website. It's a languages website, so the videos would be about resources to learn the language.

Production quality would be 10/10, I would use all techniques listed here before (colorful, pictures of human faces, to the point) and make the videos short for a good retention rate. Wouldn't show my face though, just voice.

However, I would only upload about once a week or two because this isn't a vlog channel where I can just keep putting out content.

What worries me is that due to not constantly uploading videos, profit potential won't be as good. I'm going to spend a lot of time to make these videos be the best they can be, so if this doesn't have potential then what's the point right?

I guess what I'm asking for is tips on how to increase viewership and monetize this YT idea.

General YT tips welcome too!

does any /biz/fag want to start a youtube joint venture with me? I know a bit of video/audio editing, so the post production part is taken care of, I just need a partner who can take care of video/audio production, and someone with which I can potentially discuss video topics, ideas and whatnot.
Does anybody have time to waste? Let's at least have fun if we fail :P

Hey would you guys be interested in starting a you tube content creator general, I see lots of posts about you tube videos and they could just go into one thread, I am on biz 24/7 so I can keep the thread going. We can share youtube tips and so on.
