Using Super Chat and activating advertisements on live video can help you make money. Channel memberships are available on some channels. Video monetization is a little-known (or sometimes even talked about) way of making money online. It’s pretty simple in its principle: you create and upload videos that you want to show on sites such as YouTube, and then you place ads inside those videos. The ads are clicked by viewers while they’re watching, and you end up getting paid each time this happens.
