Why teenagers should start a YouTube channel
The one number you should start a YouTube channel is that you have the time to do so. Getting 1000 subs to any channel times work and time and you have more time than someone who has a family at home. With a YouTube channel which by the is free to start and free to upload videos, building a YouTube channel is the best thing you can start and upload videos to your channel . When I was younger I was playing video games all the time and what I should have done I stream my gameplay live and record my gameplay and edit the video and then upload that video to YouTube. Yes editing videos takes time to learn but if you edit videos over time, you will get better at editing.
The reason YouTube is nice is cause you can upload videos from your phone and you don’t have to show your face if you don’t want to. The good that about videos is that on YouTube your videos will be on YouTube for a very long time. I have videos from 5 years ago and it’s still getting views today and making money. So in a sense, a YouTube video can become an asset since you only make the video one time and upload one time. So pick a subject that you want to do videos on and just do that. Once you get 1000 subs and 4000 watch hours, you can become a YouTube partner and YouTube can run ads on your videos which can make you money.

Why teenagers should start a blog
One of the best ways to make money online is blogging but why blogging? First of all, you will own the blog. It’s your site that you own so that is the first thing that is good. The next thing is that like YouTube videos, your blog post is online 24/7 which anyone go and find your blog and read it. Having a blog is an asset and blogging is a two edge sword. On one hand blogging takes a lot long time to get and get traffic to your blog post which can weed out people who does not want to blog for the long haul. On the flip side, you have to time a long time to get traffic to your blog from google. If you can write good long content that can help people, over time once google ranks your content you will start to get traffic. Since you are a teenager, YouTube and blogging are long term assets that you can build up over time.
What you can do in the mean time is build up your social media profiles on Pinterest, tiktok, and Facebook and build an some followers in the process and once you are ready promote something online, you have a big following online which will make help you make money online easier over time. Now you can do paid traffic but you need money to do paid traffic and you need to learn how paid traffic works so I would focus promoting on social media.
Keep in mind that this will take some time, making money online is not a get rich quick thing and the people who you see with a lot of money, they have been making money online for a long time. The number thing that you need is traffic and a product to program to promote. If you can get traffic, you can make the money and with blogging and YouTube you can make money online without leaving your house. Now these 2 ways are not the fastest way to make money online but it’s the best way to make money online for the long term.
