## Summary

The video documents the creator's 200-day experiment with creating YouTube channels in foreign languages using AI-generated content. Despite initial failures with over 10 channels, one channel was monetized in 33 days, earning R$18,166.52 in the first 30 days of monetization. The creator shares insights on the importance of creating multiple channels, the potential of foreign-language niches, and the higher RPMs compared to Portuguese content.

### Key Points

- **Introduction and Promise** [00:02] — The creator introduces the video, promising to show results of a 200-day experiment with foreign-language YouTube channels, including monetization time, number of videos, earnings, and a method to create videos using 100% AI.
- **Initial Challenges** [00:43] — The creator admits to never having made videos in languages other than Portuguese before. The first 3 months were spent creating channels that didn't gain enough views to monetize, with over 10 channels created, two of which almost got monetized.
- **Disappointment and First Tip** [01:14] — From May 14th to August 10th, the creator faced constant disappointment. The first tip: when creating AI-driven channels in other languages, you need to create at least 20 channels to find one or two that work, due to competition and niche saturation.
- **Personal Rule for Channel Viability** [01:55] — The creator shares a personal rule: if a channel doesn't perform well after 10 videos, move on to the next channel. This helps avoid wasting time on unviable channels.
- **Breakthrough Channel** [02:23] — On July 10th, the creator posted four videos on a test channel. Unlike other channels, this one started gaining traction, with one video reaching 4,000 views in a day, which was unprecedented.
- **First Video Performance** [03:38] — The first video on the channel got 105 views in 4 days, 427 views in 5 days, and eventually 29,000 views, earning R$600. This was the first sign of success.
- **Second Video Performance** [04:18] — The second video got 24,000 views and earned R$1,000. The creator notes that posting frequency was not daily, but the videos performed well.
- **Monetization Milestone** [05:00] — The channel was monetized in 33 days, with 16 videos and 7,000 hours watched. Monetization started on August 12th.
- **First 30 Days of Monetization** [05:39] — The creator shows the first 30 days of monetization, with earnings starting at R$2 and R$6 due to low RPM, but increasing to R$290, R$700, R$800, and beyond as RPM improved.
- **RPM Analysis** [06:50] — The RPM was initially R$0.69, the lowest ever seen, but increased to R$48 and later R$55, which is about $11. This shows the potential of foreign-language niches.
- **Top Earning Videos** [08:08] — The creator shows videos with 42,000 views earning R$2,685 and 48,000 views earning R$2,400, highlighting that even small niches can pay well.
- **Best Day Earnings** [08:56] — On September 10th, the channel earned R$12,248.87 with 239,000 views, showcasing the peak earning potential.
- **Total Earnings** [09:11] — The total earnings from the channel were R$18,166.52, with R$12,000 in the first 30 days and additional income later.
- **Inexperience and Slowdown** [09:45] — The creator admits to being inexperienced, which led to a slowdown in posting. Despite this, the channel still brought in at least R$3,000 per month.
- **Competition and Niche Discovery** [10:39] — The creator discovered a niche where they were the only one making pre-release videos in that language. However, a more experienced competitor entered, gaining almost 2 million views and earning an estimated R$87,000, teaching the creator valuable lessons.
- **Comparison with Portuguese Channel** [12:18] — The creator compares a Portuguese channel video with 383,000 views earning R$5,178 (RPM R$13.59) to the foreign channel with similar views earning three times more, highlighting the higher RPM of foreign niches.
- **Conclusion and Recommendation** [14:14] — The creator concludes that while Portuguese content is worth it, focusing on foreign languages can be more profitable due to higher RPMs, potentially 15-20 times higher in other niches.

### Conclusion

The experiment proved that creating foreign-language YouTube channels with AI-generated content can be highly lucrative, with one channel earning R$18,166.52 in its first month of monetization. The key takeaway is to create multiple channels, persist through failures, and focus on niches with high RPM potential.

## Transcript

days and today I'm going to show you all my results.  But I'll tell you right now , it pays a lot. How do I pay?  In this video you'll see how long it took me to monetize this channel, how many videos I
posted, how much I earned, and especially for those who stay until the end, I'll show you how to make videos using 100% artificial intelligence.  And it was with these videos that I monetized this channel abroad.  And
now let's get practical.  For those who follow Bora pra Prática, you already know that I make my videos in a very honest way.  Many times I don't even use editing and I'm very honest confession in this video is that I had never made videos
in languages ​​other than Portuguese before.  And it was very challenging because basically the first 3 months, the first 90 days of those 200 days of posting, was just about creating the channel, which wasn't getting any views. Okay, I can't say it didn't get views.   It
was getting views, but not enough to monetize.  I easily created more than 10 channels, okay?  Two of those 10 channels almost became monetized, and I will use those channels in the future. But from May 14th until
August 10th, it was nothing but disappointment, just one blow after another from YouTube , just videos that didn't deliver. Crazy, right?  But that's the first tip I'll leave here for you.  If you're going to create channels along these lines, dark channels
using artificial intelligence in other languages, such as English, Spanish, French, German, you're not just creating one channel.  You 'll have to create at least 20 channels to have one that works, two channels that work,
because you'll identify some niches and produce content for your idea isn't good, there are already too many people producing content, there's too much competition, your video isn't good, in short, don't just create one channel.  I
made up my own little rule, okay?  You don't have to follow it, it's just a rule I use.  If I post 10 videos on the channel and the channel is like, "Yeah, it's crap," I'll just skip to the next one.  That's how it
works.  Ah, I spent a month posting on the channel, but it didn't work out.  I posted 30 videos there, damn, it didn't work out, bye.  I'm switching to another channel.  That's how it works, okay? religious channel, it's content that I like and stuff, I posted there, it was still in English.  And then
I said, "Damn, this [ __ ] isn't going to work ."  But then something magical happened.   On this channel here, on July 10th, I posted a video, then I posted
video, then I posted another video. There were four videos.  Normally on my other channels I posted videos every day.  This one here is a test; I only posted four videos.  It's just that I don't just make one video, right?  I'll
take advantage of this and do a lot of it right away.  In this case, I made four videos.  I posted it, videos, and ran out.  I went there to post on the other channels because I had several channels, right?  Finally, I came back to that channel and look how amazing it is!
This is the first 30 days of this channel, from July 10th to this channel, from July 10th to August 11th, 2025. So we see these four videos here, and then I posted two more, then one more, and
then we see something I hadn't seen yet, which was this climb here, you know?  4,000 views in one day, wow. Just so you can see it's not fake or anything.  Everything's perfect here, look.  Let's press F5
first video I posted on the channel .  First day, July 10th, right? Then, on July 14th, in just 4 days, it already had 105 views.  In 5
days it had 427 views.  Well, I was like, um, there's something interesting here, huh?  And look, I'm going to give you a spoiler right now .  This video isn't fully monetized, right?  It got 29,000 views, but, oh, it gave me R$
but it was monetized.  I'll get there soon, right?  I'll get to when it's monetized, but it gave me R$ 600. It's the first one here.  This is the second video I posted, and it got 24,000 views.  I posted it on
post videos every day.  This one took me four days to post the second video.  I posted it on the first day and got 25 views, then 50 views, then 56, and it kept going up.  And then, you know, I got excited.  Then I posted the third video, and the third video
went up much faster than the others, right?  Well, I'm already here, huh?  Oh, how interesting that second video I showed you is.  This video alone earned me R$1,000, and we haven't even gotten there yet.  This is only
the second video I've posted on the channel. Just so you can see that it's not fake. Oh, this is the graph for the first 33 days, because it took 33 days to 33 days, because it took 33 days to monetize this channel.  Let's press F5.
Oh, there it is, still over there, right?   Let me show you a little closer here .  in the first 33 days.  Let's see if the 33 days are correct here.  Just so you custom,
here, 33 days, from July 7th, no, from July 10th to August 11th, I posted 16 videos and, look, we got 7,000 hours
watched, but it takes a little while, you know, to monetize.  So, we started monetizing on the 12th. Are you all ready to see the first 30 days of monetization on this channel?
Oh my God, this was so good, so good, guys.  It was worth making all those channels and having them all fail, my God, I said: "My God, I need to show this, I need to show
this on Bora pra prática."  But it took me a while to get here, but I'll show you.  Let's go, then.  After monetizing the channel, right?  We can see here that in the first few days I was receiving R$2 and R$6, because the RPM here
necessarily know the reason, YouTube was probably targeting the audience that watches this type of content.  So, I don't know, the RPM was really low, it was worse than it was, it's the lowest RPM of all, that's why it came out so low.  But
after two days it increased.  Yes, it increased.  So on the first day of monetization, right, with the correct RPM, it was R$290, then R$700, then R$800, and the rest
is history, right?  It's history, folks. Before showing the first 30 days, I'll show you the channel's RPM .  First, I'll show you the RPM for these first two days here.  I will select from August 12th to
August 13th.   That was the day we received R$ 8. Let's check the RPM here. Oh, 69 cents is very low.  It's the lowest Oh, 69 cents is very low.  It's the lowest RPM I've ever seen in my life.  But let's
go back here and show how much money we made from the 14th to the 20th. And we'll also look at the RPM .  Holy [ __ ], I've already shown too much.   It's already been R$ 4800 in one week.  But look at the RPM here, how great!  R$ 48. It
also increased over time, okay? It reached R$ 55, increasing that average. It reached R$ 55, increasing that average. So it came to R$ 55, which is about 11, right? The RPM is 11 for that channel.  Great, very good.  Towards the end of the video,
Bora Pra Prática," which is a Portuguese-language channel in the YouTube niche, entrepreneurship, or something similar, and this other channel here, right?  Let's see how many more times I've done this with this channel here in this other language.
But, oh, the first thing that sticks here is that when you start creating content for foreign audiences, you no longer feel like creating content in Portuguese, man.  It's impossible , it's impossible, it's impossible, it's impossible.  Eventually you'll understand why, but anyone
who knows their way around YouTube already knows. Now I'm going to show you the videos that paid the most here.  This video has 42,000 views.  He gave me R$ 2,685.
48,000 views, which earned me R$ 2,400. channel didn't get 100,000, 200,000, 300,000, or 1 million views.  It's a very small niche, but even so, it pays much more than many
large niches out there in Portuguese.  And now I'm going to show you the best part: how much monetized days of the channel.  Oh, I'll try to show up here just so you can see it 's not fake.  Oh, look at this pretty little value here .  Here, look.  Here, look.
.  Here, look.  Here, look. There, look.  R$ 12,248.87 September 10th.  R$ 12.24 with 239,000 views.  And now I
believe the best part of the video, which is how much I earned in total, I 'm going to show you here, again, try to show you, try to show you, there, R$ 18,166.52.
R$12,000 in the first 30 days and then only made another R$6,000."  That's all, right?  Just another R$ 6,000?  Well, I made R$ 12,000 in the first 30 days, then R$1,000, then R$4,000. Why did this happen?  Because I
'm still very inexperienced.  Well, even though I'm making this much money, I'm not the I said at the beginning of the video, to be completely honest with you, I'm new.  I'm new to this whole thing of making videos for foreign audiences, okay?  I know,
right?  I know, I can't be so flippant as to say I don't understand anything.  I understand, I entered this world of foreign YouTube already knowing about this Brazilian YouTube, but then I
discovered that I don't know [ __ ] . To be perfectly honest here, man.  Finally, let's show it here.  You all noticed that I stopped posting, right?  And one of the reasons I stopped posting, of
course, is other channels, other projects, a lot of things going on here, but even with this slowdown, it was still bringing in at least R$ 3,000 a month, which is a considerable amount of money, right?  But then something incredible happened, something
I found hilarious, to be honest. I discovered a niche, I was the I discovered a niche, I was the only one making pre-release videos in that language and with you about because you know how YouTube works.  I'm telling you, I'm telling
you about this channel, soon there will be 300 channels and that's it, it won't work anymore. So I'm not going to talk about it anymore, I'm not going to mention the channels anymore, I'll only talk to those who are closer to me, like in mentorship programs and such.  Basically, a guy who's much more
experienced than me saw that I was making some money with that channel and decided to create a channel in the same niche. So it was just me and him.  But this guy came in with both feet on the chest.  This guy came in like a flying kick.  That guy
swallowed me whole. The guy I made there, look, almost 400,000 views.  This guy is still posting today and he already has almost 2 million views.  It has 1,870,000 views.  And do you know how much that amounts to?
language.  He probably has the same RPM as me.  That's more than R$ 80,000. I even wrote down what that is .  So, my competitor has already made R$ 87,000 with this niche that I discovered. So, he had to give away a small portion of the
's not how it works.  But I thought it was cool.  I thought it was cool, you know?  And I learned a lot by watching my competitor's channel .  And then I realized that I wasn't getting my videos right anymore, you know?   There's a
lot to it, but the main point of YouTube is that when you get something right, you have to know why you're right and repeat those successes.  And I did n't know how to do that very well.  Today I know a little better, but honestly, I do
creating content for this channel.  I prefer to create other channels and make made a very quick comparison here, okay ?  I have the "Bora para a Prática" channel, which is the one And I have a video of him, where is it? Here, look.  I tested YouTube Shorts
Here, look.  I tested YouTube Shorts for 80 days.  This video has 383,000 views.  And the channel I made, the foreign channel, I got 389,000 views, so it's a pretty
close number.  And then I'll show you how much I made with this channel here, because its RPM isn't low, it's close to the RPMs that are here in Brazil.  The Portuguese channel isn't low, okay?  But I'll show you how many views 383,000 generated for
this channel right here.  This is the video.  I tested YouTube Shorts for 80 days.  It gave me 383,000 views and generated R$ 5,178.
R$ 14, right?  R$ 13.59. But this video is a bit out of the ordinary, okay?  Because the average RPM on my channel is R$10. So, views, I made more than three times as much.  I made three
times more money with this channel with the same number of views.  I made foreign channel, with the same number of views, than with this channel here, which already has a high RPM, considering the RPM of the people who make
content in Portuguese. Now, if it were a regular channel there, it would probably reach five or six times more.  And if I were in another times more.  And if I were in another niche, with other content,
niche, with other content, the payment could be 15, 20 times higher.   So creating content in Portuguese? Yes, of course it's worth it.  But focusing
on Adicence, in my opinion, it's more worthwhile to create content in other languages, content in a language that pays the same amount of money as Portuguese, right?  It has the same RPM as the Portuguese one. Finally, I showed one of my channels,
okay?  I have other channels in progress, okay?  And I believe I'll be bringing more content here for you all.  And if you want to know how I make my videos, just click on this video here. See you there.  M.
