In this video, I'll be creating a completely new channel and making sure it gets launched in 7 days. I spent a week of my life to find out how many subscribers and how much money it will bring bring . But first you need to topic it will be on, but I’ve already come up with a name that I think will appeal to a million subscribers. The cooked. The channel is ready. Throw the design onto it. Ready. The views, but I think that will change over time. Let's move on to the most important thing. Choosing a niche. I will be filming the Carping Player game because it is one of the most popular mobile games about cars, which is why this niche is full of audience, which means it will be extremely easy to get views here. I woke up and subscribed to all the channels in my niche and spent an hour watching shorts to customize recommendations specifically for Carpathian multiplayer. I've already downloaded this we're going to film. The video is short. The guy simply compared footage from real life with the game, but I'll re- shoot it in my game and do happened. Even better than his. To be honest, it only took me 5 phone, in Kapkut. And, basically, that's all. Can be uploaded to the channel. I wrote this simple title. Here. All that's left to do now is click here to ensure that this video is not suitable for children, so that the video doesn't end up on YouTube Kids. I wrote a couple of tags, this is very important at the start of a channel. And we can publish videos. Open access. The first video has been published. I made two more shorts for the channel. In total, this is three shorts per day, which is basically what I usually do. Viewings have already started . We already have 4,000 views. Literally just a couple of hours have passed. New channel. Today I filmed and posted two shorts on the channel. For the first shorts, I was inspired by another author's idea, which got a lot of views. Here we have history shown. The legendary rivalry between BMW and Mercedes. In the first shot of the BMW, we see smoke, as if BMWs are breaking down. Mercedes arrived, laughed, then we called a tow truck, fixed it and beat the story to the end to see the ending. I did something similar, but I always do it better than others. I made nicer colors, more beautiful graphics, smoother animations and posted it on the channel. In the second video, I took a well-known format: car jumps off ramps, inspired by bead-driving and GTA V. People are interested in how far the cars can fly and how they land. I showed one by one which cars would jump, but the last car, it doesn’t exist, it’s not in the game, I made it up myself. Golf car. Players will be interested in what kind of car this is, and will just ends there. Because of this, we will get very good retention and a lot of re-views. Today is the third day, and the first thing I did was go look at the statistics. The first video already has 17,500 views and continues to grow. This is a very good result. Most likely, this is precisely because of our feature that we made. Short with history is also gradually advancing. We looked at the statistics, it's time to continue making videos. Today I took off three shorts. The car handling test, where I well the cars handle. An interesting situation where a BMW engine leaked and started smoking, and a test of the SUV suspension. I posted all of this on the channel, and little by little it’s already starting to gain views. And I glanced at the statistics. We have some really nice numbers here. We have 80,000 views in 48 hours. I immediately thought about what it was. And then, in short, our first video on the channel short, our first video on the channel skyrocketed to 36,000 views. Today is already the fourth day that I have been running this channel. As you can see, it's already dark, the day is coming to an end, so it's time to take stock. I go to analytics, it says we have 150,000 views in 48 hours. This is a very good result. I got motivated and took off as many as four shorts today. In the first short we looked at how high the cars could climb up the hill. In the we take an abandoned car and restore it. In the third short I showed the sounds of different cars. Well, I really tried very hard on the fourth shorts . I came up with the simplest and most popular hype idea possible. I put two icons. This is the first part of the game and the second part of this game. And he placed 10 players in a row , who would go either left or right, choosing one of these games. Spectators will be interested to see which game the players will choose. I made the visual as pleasant as possible. This is very important. Here we have nice colors, beautiful graphics, good animations, everything glows. Everything is great, everything has shadows. And also this video is in a loop. In our case, the beginning of the video coincides with the end. This means that viewers will watch it over and over again until they realize that it is endless. This means we will have a lot of the video is sure to become popular. I'm going to leave a very high bid on it, so I don't want to publish it at night, I'll publish it in the morning. By the way, all the videos gain views and have made it into recommendations. This morning I posted that very video I was talking about yesterday, and it immediately took YouTube by storm. There are already 20,000 views, although only 4 hours have passed. This is the level of really large channels. And all the other videos I've published are also getting very good views. I also filmed two shorts for the channel that day. The short where we jumped from the ski jump got a record 170,000 views. And so I shot this idea again. [music] Day six. The finishing line. The channel is already exceeding all expectations. We have reached 1,200 subscribers. The channel has already gained real popularity . Every video we have actually gets recommended and is a hit. We already have half a million views. This is great. And it's time to turn your reach into money. There are two ways to make money on YouTube. This is direct monetization from YouTube itself and advertising contracts. Let's go in order. Monetization is when YouTube itself shows ads on your videos and pays you for views. And yes, you can connect it at any age, in any country, even in Russia, you can connect it too . There's just a different monetization are as follows. The channel must have either 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of long-form video views, or 1,000 subscribers and 10 million views on Shorh. And now a hack for a quick start. I always go the first way. I connect monetization using the first method. That means I'm getting 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of hours is the total amount of time viewers must your videos. And so, as an exception, I will shoot one long video for this channel. His goal is simply to get those 4,000 hours of views and immediately connect monetization. Yes, that's why I'll have to make one long video. I've already filmed it, it's being edited, and we'll be publishing it on the channel soon. Now it's time to tell you about advertising monetization to be activated when we can earn money now? I wrote to showed them our channel, showed them our advertising contract with them. I will now be publishing shorts and showing for each of these shorts they will pay me 30 dollars. It sounds modest, but keep in mind that I make three shorts a day, which is already $100 daily, which already sounds good. Just just the beginning. Your hour has come, light. And so the seventh day has arrived. This is the final day before the results are summed up. this channel to get the coin. The first thing you need to do is write the title. I Description. Well, we're just describing our video. And I also wrote down the time codes for each location. I just wrote located. Well, in short, this is how it should be for our idea. And here it’s the same as with shorts. I just choose videos that are not for children. I write tags and that’s basically it. Hooray, the first long video on the shorts channel has been published. I took the idea for this film the one below. I looked at the long all have a popular video where they collect gifts in this game, which are simply played this game, collected all the gifts, recorded a video about it , but did it better than others. I made a more beautiful edit, ordered a preview from a designer, and this is what I posted. And it 100% has to get it's a long video, it has a lot of retention, it has to be popular and it has to get 4,000 hours of views for me to enable monetization. Before summing up the results, I will give the channel 2-3 days to settle so that we have more accurate results. And I hope that during this time this video of views and that we will apply for the coin. This will be a cool performance. But end there, because an advertiser wrote to me today and told me to will earn $60 now. So I went to make them and in the evening I’ll show you what happened. And here's what happened. I filmed a regular shorts, but at the end I showed footage from the game of that very advertiser. And so it turned out to be, well, this is the kind of advertisement we got. I've already posted this. And the same thing with the second shorts. 2,500 subscribers and millions of views. Each video gets more views than its competitors. Just one video, where we have two game icons, got half a million views. And most importantly, we have already started making money from $60 from working with advertisers. We're continuing to collaborate with them and will also be as the long video we made to enable monetization has already made it views from there, and we will connect it very soon . It turns out that in a week we got a small business that will bring me additional money. I would like to tell you that I didn’t expect such a result, but in fact, even at the moment of creating the channel, I already knew that in a week we would have such numbers. Someone will say: "It was just luck," the video took off. But let's be honest, I have 6 years of experience on YouTube behind me. And during this time I realized one simple thing. YouTube is a system. If you understand how algorithms work and how to capture and hold the viewer's attention, the result becomes predictable. I didn't wonder whether it would work or not. I simply applied the tools I had honed over the years. This experiment is proof that with experience and a system you grow Many will now close this video thinking: "Okay, fine, I'll go and try it myself now, but I'm sorry to disappoint you: in 2026, [music] YouTube doesn't forgive mistakes. Without a system and knowledge, you won't just grow slowly, you won't get any results at all. You'll waste your time, burn out, and simply time, burn out, and simply real big money is being made on YouTube, what niches are currently popular, I share my experience and show you all the ins and outs. If you want to make money on YouTube, you definitely need to be there. Link in the description. Go right now on your own. There's nothing to gain on YouTube. See you in Telegram. Ah.
