Nowadays, keeping a public diary is considered a very interesting and profitable profession. develop into commercial ones, and successful popular bloggers become an example for others.
One cannot but agree with the statement that the authority of blogs with a large number of subscribers is increasing every day, turning into a real tool of influence on the readership.
Blogs on the latest gadgets, tourism, cooking, cosmetics and beauty make good money on the Internet. A personal online magazine, reflecting the hobby of its owner, becomes an online continuation of the extraordinary personality who promoted the project.
Types of blogs
So, of our country - who are they? Before getting acquainted with the top projects that attract new subscribers and advertisers, it is worth talking about what online magazines exist.
A resource with interesting content
A beginner, just making his way to fame, grabs literally everything and fills his blog with content of various contents. Some diaries resemble a huge dump of irrelevant news and photos copied from other sources. However, there are talented bloggers who skillfully look for what is interesting to their subscribers. Resonating content collected on the Internet allows it to remain in the top of the most read and cited projects.
Author's magazine
The opposite of the first project is the so-called blog magazine, specializing in a specific topic. The author expresses his point of view and captivates readers with what is closest to him as the creator.
There are often cases when professional magazines with an entire army of subscribers are bought out by large publishing houses, and further development occurs through investments. Such mutually beneficial commercial deals are practiced by famous bloggers both in Russia and abroad.
The resources described above include personal diaries photographers posting original photographs, or celebrity blogs, the fame of whose owners allows them to quickly gain subscribers interested in the personal and professional lives of their idols.
Blogs on women's topics
Separate projects include magazines on purely women's topics: handicrafts, cooking, fortune telling, and others. Popular bloggers post useful master classes that attract an audience of millions.
This also includes channels that are gaining popularity, the owners of which are well versed in the beauty industry and have dedicated their lives to beauty. Famous bloggers who talk about new cosmetics and share detailed makeup tutorials express independent opinions about products by testing them on themselves.
We've looked at the main types of blogs that are popular and loved by loyal readers, and now we'll talk about famous creators of personal resources who turned their hobby into a business.
I. Varlamov
Perhaps the most popular blogger in Russia is the well-known Ilya Varlamov, who founded an advertising and development agency and writes fascinatingly on LiveJournal. Cognitive or social posts he accompanies with photographs, skillfully using his blog to advertise new projects.
Varlamov loves his readers and for their sake “travels through garbage dumps, runs to rallies and writes something new every day.” On a personal blog, which is visited by about two million people every month, it is possible to buy advertising, providing it with photographs of the customer. The author also suggests organizing a photo shoot, supplementing it with selling posts about products or stores. A businessman and human rights activist, one of the top bloggers on LiveJournal, criticizes local authorities, entering into polemics with the administration of the cities he visited. He boldly covers the most resonant political events, such as the protests in Kyiv in 2014.
E. Krygina
Speaking about the most popular media personalities, we cannot ignore the person of Elena Krygina, who burst onto the fashion Olympus with her video tutorials on makeup.
M. Wei
Masha Wei, one of the top bloggers who is incredibly popular among schoolgirls, began recording beauty video tutorials while still at school. In them, she talks about all the intricacies of applying makeup and transforms into famous pop culture divas. IN lately Masha, who has more than three million subscribers, is invited to work on television.
K. Matoyan
The very first beauty blogger in Russia with the nickname Blondycandy shares with her Livejournal subscribers everything that happens in her life. The cosmetics lover always talks about new products and reviews popular face and body skin care products. Katya is known to everyone who is even slightly interested in the beauty industry. Successful Matoyan has been collaborating with the most famous beauty brands for a long time.
N. Belotserkovskaya
Russian bloggers rarely spoil their readers with culinary art and surprise them with their special skills. Nika, who found herself in France by the will of fate, fell in love with the cuisine of Provence and began generously sharing recipes for delicious and unusual dishes.
The author of books about the secrets of haute cuisine has become the most popular food blogger in Russia. Now Belotserkovskaya has her own online store where you can buy unusual spices, syrups, cereals and even branded Belonika oil. Having promoted her own brand, she also opened three culinary schools abroad.
Nikkoko8
Well-known bloggers on YouTube, whose videos are watched by millions of viewers, receive decent compensation from the channel. A girl named Veronica is called the main “sniffer” of the country. She writes original reviews about selective perfume brands and the so-called mass market. Not afraid to offend anyone, a popular blogger with a huge army of subscribers speaks out quite harshly, for which many people criticize her, but Veronica is full of positivity and shares it with everyone.
D. Borisov
The leading bodybuilder in terms of views on Youtube, Denis Borisov, has long earned the reputation of a true professional. His programs were appreciated by athletes and ordinary people. In an accessible form, he explains how muscle building occurs, talks about all the nuances of training, making differences in the programs of men and women.
Borisov, whose videos have received more than 50 million views, is not for nothing considered the most popular and successful fitness blogger in Russia.
Orleans
Voronezh girl Katya Orleans quickly achieved fame. She doesn't try to be boring and doesn't mince words. Now her online magazine “about clothes” is gaining popularity in the Russian blogosphere. A non-standard approach to fashion without custom advertising sets Orleans apart from thousands of other girls. She harshly criticizes her colleagues, pointing out their obvious mistakes.
Sophie Avenue
Perhaps, the top ten bloggers are rounded off by Sofia Alekseeva, who received recognition for her amazing beauty and unique taste. Using the most unusual combinations of clothes, Sophie creates original images that her subscribers love. Each of her “looks” catches and inspires readers who admire Alekseeva’s style.
The girl who has become famous stars in television programs and participates in commercial projects that bring in good profits.
As you can see, the best bloggers in Russia, gaining popularity, receive good dividends by doing what they love. Don’t delude yourself that this is easy money, because without a creative approach it is impossible to interest a multimillion-dollar audience. Running a popular blog requires maximum effort and time, but those who are confident in themselves can be recommended to try their hand at this field.
How much can you earn from a blog? A pressing question for novice video makers or a whole army of fans of top YouTubers who are interested in counting other people’s money.
Meanwhile, YouTube has long ago ceased to be an ordinary video hosting service, having evolved into a platform for interactive Internet television, where anyone can become a celebrity, making hundreds of thousands of dollars from their popularity, and this is far from the limit.
How do video bloggers make money on YouTube?
Video bloggers have at least four sources of income:
- Contextual advertising. Many users still believe that YouTube pays royalties based on the number of views of a particular video. But this statement is obviously incorrect. The fact is that a blogger’s salary depends on how many clicks on advertising banners and video screens the viewers of his channel make.
For example, famous YouTubers on the Runet can earn 50¢-$2.5 from contextual advertising within 1 thousand views of video content.
- Product placement. You've probably already come across videos in which, in the middle of the video, the channel host advertises manufacturers of goods and services. This is far from a cheap promotion, because the same EeOneGuy, Max +100500, Katya Klap and other equally popular YouTube stars cost advertisers from 30 to 100 thousand rubles.
- Selling links that are placed under the description of the video – 5-20 thousand rubles.
- Affiliate programs. In addition to standard privileges: free access to the media library, holding training webinars and round-the-clock support, an affiliate program can increase a video blogger’s income from contextual advertising by 20%-40%.
How much do YouTubers earn?
Probably, each of us was interested in how much top video bloggers earn on YouTube? Naturally, none of them will tell you about the size of their official fees, since famous YouTubers are often bound by contractual obligations to affiliate programs, advertisers and Google Corporation. However, you can calculate the approximate earnings of a particular video maker yourself or by using special online services.
- We count on our own: (A x B) + C = D
- A – number of views on the channel;
- B – average income from contextual advertising – $1-$1.5/1 thousand views;
- C – profit from the affiliate program, about 30% of earnings from advertising;
- D – potential channel income.
- If you have the Internet at hand, you can find all the necessary information on portals such as SocialBlade, WhatStat, StatSheep, etc.
And here we calculated everything for you. We analyze the income received from all his sources of income, including YouTube.
For example, to find out how much Sasha Spielberg earns on YouTube, you need to:
- Calculate using the diagram above.
(349.854 million x 1,500) + 30% = $682,215
- Or use the statistics of one of the above resources (using the example of the “StatSheep” service).
*– the numbers in both cases will be different, because StatSheep calculates the channel's potential profit at $2.5 per 1,000 views.
