She explained that the amount she earns per video really relies on the number of ads she includes.
For example, a video on her channel that has around 100,000 views only earned $100 (£76), as she only included one advert in it.
Speaking to Business Insider, she said: “You can’t just assume that you’ll be making $27,000 in your first year. In general, it’s something that grows over time.”
YouTube videos with 1 million views
Things really step up once your videos hit one million views, according to YouTubers Marina Mogilko, Kevin David, Austen Alexander and Shelby Church.
