## Transcript

After researching thousands of channels,
I found something crazy. Simple
spreadsheets making 10K a month, while
creators barely lift a finger. I'm
ranking these niches based on how easy
they are to create, how many people are
doing it, and how much money they make
you. Niche number 14, ranking channel.
This channel made 3,000 to $5,000 just
by showing how many goals your favorite
soccer player made. Just look at their
best performing video. It seems like
people really enjoy to watch how many
times their favorite tennis player has
bounced the ball. This person is
literally getting paid to create these
loweffort spreadsheets. This niece gets
a solid B tier. Niche number 12, the
improving niche. Trust me, this is a
hidden gem. With only nine videos, this
channel pulled in 10 million views with
these extremely lowquality stickman
slideshows. You could retire your
parents with this niche. The channel has
already made over 10K [music] with just
nine videos. I'll put this niche at S
tier. Niche number 12, dumb explainers.
This channel is making 5K a month
explaining finance with bananas and
monkeys. Text, credit cards, crypto.
Turns out people will learn anything if
you explain it to them like a
5-year-old. The best part about this
niche, finance has one of the highest
RPMs. So, believe me when I say that the
creator of this channel is securing his
back with this niche. I'll give it a
place at S tier. Niche number 11,
Iceberg Explained. This channel started
posting only one year ago and has pulled
in over 11 million views. Assuming they
have a $2 to $4 RPM, the channel has
approximately made over 20 to 40K.
That's an above average salary just from
a simple stickman explaining things. It
gets its place at a tier. Niche number
10, senior health adviser. This channel
made 2,000 to 4,000 in only 1 month with
AI generated slideshows for granny's.
When seniors find something interesting,
they share it on Facebook with their
fans, which means free promo. Next to
that, you could expect crazy RPMs from
this niche because when they see an ad,
they never skip. I'll put it at C tier
because there's one downside. You have
to be careful with the things you're
advising unless you want a big lawsuit
coming after you. Number nine, nostalgic
slideshows. This channel made $3,000 in
just one month with slideshows of
nostalgic vintage photos. That's a
month's salary from putting some
pictures together that people made
decades ago. People are crying for
nostalgia watching these photos while
the creators making bank. So, this niche
gets its place at a tier. Niche number
eight, sleep stories. This channel is
printing money while using AI to
generate one to twohour long videos.
Getting paid $20 per 1,000 views while
viewers sleep through their ads, making
them even more money. This format works
for any topic as long as it's created to
make people fall asleep. This is
definitely an S tier niche because of
its low effort and high income
possibility. Number seven, what if
stories? In just 3 months, this channel
has already pulled in almost 4 million
views by asking questions like, "What if
a Navy Seal fought a Roman soldier?" I
can bet you guys that this channel has
already made over 10K from this. And the
best part, the engagement. There are
thousands of arguments in these comment
sections about grown men arguing if
Napoleon would survive a battle against
Donald Trump. Jokes aside, this n gets a
solid B tier with serious vowel
potential. Niche number six, Then and
Now. This channel has approximately made
over $2,000 just from showing before and
afters of celebrities. With these crazy
clickbaity thumbnails, they've managed
to pull in over 1 million views. It
makes people feel emotional knowing that
their glory days will soon be over two
with a high varietality potential
because you're talking about
celebrities. Disney gets a solid B tier.
Number five, Japanese Secrets. This
channel has made over $3,000 from this.
For some reason, everyone's obsessed
with Japanese Secrets. So, putting it in
your title will double your views. So,
jokes aside, notice how the best
performing videos on this channel both
include the word Japanese in their
title. You think that's a coincidence? I
don't think so. So, what's the ranking
place? I'll give it a nice B tier. Niche
number four, the explaining niche. This
is very simple. You take a topic and
explain all different versions and
variants of it. This channel has made
over $5,000 doing this. Next to almost
having infinite content, because of the
superheroes niche being so popular, I'll
put it at S tier. Niche number three,
non-citizen guides. This channel has hit
3.4 4 million views in just 7 months of
posting these boring, loweffort videos.
The secret, fear. These viewers aren't
watching this for entertainment [music]
to trying to avoid getting deported. As
you might guess, this niche is extremely
unsaturated. Before finding this
channel, I didn't even know this niche
existed. So, that's why I'm putting it
at a tier. It's crazy how this niche is
printing money while others can't even
pay their rent. Niche number two, AI
revenge stories. This channel has made
over $2,000 in just one month of
creating these 1-hour long AI generated
videos. And notice how I'm saying
videos, not stories, because in this
crappy thumbnail, you can see that it's
based on a true story. So, assuming
that's actually the case, I'll put it at
B tier. After YouTube's new recent
policy, you can only monetize these type
of videos if they're actually based on a
real story. To give YouTube the idea
that you actually did research instead
of using chat TPT to make up a story for
you. Niche number one, quiz games. With
11 million views, this channel has
approximately made over $10,000 just
from uploading easy quiz games. The
videos are easy to make and you only
need images, sound effects, and a voice
over. Looking at the most recent video,
you can see that the channel's
consistently performing really well. So,
this niche gets thrown into B tier. Now,
just as you thought this video was over,
I'm not done yet. I want to thank you
for staying this long. So, as a bonus,
I'm giving you guys four more niches
that nobody's talking about. Bonus niche
number one, ASMR cursing car. This
channel has made5 to $10,000 just from
crushing things with the car. It's ASMR
but for your eyes. Bonus niche number
two, scary stories niche. This 7-hour
long video has over 1 million views. So,
just imagine how much this channel
actually makes. With videos that long
and a combined amount of 28 million
views, I can assure you guys that this
channel has made over $10,000 minimum,
which if you think about it, is
mind-blowing. Bonus niche number three,
the drama niche. This channel has made
over $50,000 just from posting celebrity
news and tweets. And the best part about
this niche is that it's extremely easy
to go viral. Like I said, niches that
involve celebrities are gold mines. When
people see someone famous, they click on
it. That's the way it works. Bonus n
number four, the superhero movie leaks.
This channel you're seeing right here is
consistently pulling in millions of
views per month just from talking about
Marvel movies while showing some footage
in the background. And the best part
about this niche, the videos are
extremely easy to make and the view
duration is usually very high. Trust me,
people watch anything related to movie
leaks. Especially now with big superhero
movies coming up, many fans are hyped to
see leaks about them. So, now that
you've seen all of these niches that you
can use to finally start making some
cash on YouTube, it's all up to you if
you decide to take action or not. Just
for the record, these niches won't last
forever, so get on them as fast as you
can while they last. The best time is to
start now. If you enjoy this video, then
I really appreciate if you could smash
the subscribe button. That way, I know
that you guys enjoy this type of
content. Now, thanks for watching and
goodbye.
