9 YT Niches That Will Make You $9,378+/month (2025)

0:00 Hey guys, welcome to my channel. My name is Eddie Eisner and today I'm going to be showing you the top nine niches that are going to make you six figures per year with YouTube. Now, if you guys don't know me, I'm 20 years old. I make over six figures per month with social media. And I've run more than 15 long form YouTube channels. That doesn't include any of the Tik Tok channels I run or any of the Snapchat shows or anything else. So, just for the start of the video, I want to show you guys some of my channels just to give myself some credibility. This channel, Squiz, made over $100,000 in a 10-month time period. And if I go to the settings here, as you can see, the currency is in US dollar because for some reason, people thought that it wasn't. Here's a Minecraft channel I had in a time of 3 months. It made around $16,000 also in USD. This is another Minecraft channel in 3 months made around $42,000 also in USD. These are just an example of three channels that I don't run anymore. And I think

0:45 this gives me enough credibility to know what I'm talking about without having to show the current channels I'm running and leaking those niches. So, in this document right here, I wanted to come up with a little bit of a criteria to give you guys an understanding as to why I'm picking the niches that I'm going to be picking in this video. So, just to quickly go over my criteria of a good niche, which ideally should have all of these. Ideally, the first upload should be within the last 90 days. So, if their channel has their first video 5 months old, 6 months old, four months old, whatever. If it's older than 90 days, I don't even look at it. The next thing I look for is a consistent view count. I definitely don't want to be going into a channel where the guy that I'm basing my channel off of has a video with a million views, then 2,000, then 300,000, then 10,000. Just inconsistency doesn't look good because if the guy I'm basing my channel off of can't even get consistent views, then how will my channel get consistent views? And lastly, I'm just looking for 8 minute

1:30 plus videos because that means that these guys are getting paid well because 8 minutes plus you're able to get midroll ads. I'm also looking for only faceless content and content with a high average view count. So, not only a consistent view count, but I want maybe an average of 70, 80,000 or more views. So, let's take a look at our first video. And by the way, I also have a little tier list thing right here. I'm going to be taking a look at each channel, giving you guys my opinion, and then going back and then kind of rating them on this tier list based on what I think is the best to the worst, so you can have idea of what you should get into. And keep in mind, all of these are free games. So that's why I'm giving out nine niches because that way if everybody that watches this video just gets into the one of the nine that they think is the best, then you have a great chance of succeeding because if I just gave one or two or even three niches, if everybody started going into those, those niches would get oversaturated. So by giving you guys nine different options here, I'm pretty much doing the

2:17 research for you and then you shouldn't really have a problem. So the first person I want to take a look at is called the bite-sized explainer. So let's just remind ourselves of the criteria here and then go back to this channel. So first thing we want to look at is how old is the channel? channel. Their first video, if it's over 3 months, then you know that's a problem. Right here, this isn't even at the two-month mark yet. So, this video was actually uploaded just a little over a month ago. So, this was around 6 weeks ago. So, this is perfect in terms of how old the channel actually is. Next, this is clearly faceless content. I mean, we could kind of just hover through the videos. Their view count is also fairly consistent. Although, their first video did a lot better than these ones. They're still getting 20,000, 30,000, 90,000 views. This is 3 days old, already has 7,000 views. So, I would say their view count is pretty consistent. However, I wouldn't say the average view count is super high. So, in general, I

3:02 would say this meets all the criteria. A little bit lower than the uh the average view count that I would look for for myself. However, for some of you guys, this would still be okay. So, quickly as well, I don't want to just go based on the criteria. I want to go through the actual videos and see how difficult these channels would be to run. Uh, and I'm going to factor that into their ranking, right? Because even if this channel is only making, let's say, three $4,000 a month, if it's extremely easy to run, then that could be an S tier channel. versus on the other end, if it's very very hard to run and it's only making 3 to 4,000, that could be D or C tier because um putting a lot of effort into something that's making 3 4,000 a month might just not be worth your time, at least compared to the other niches here. So, if we play this audio here, let's listen to this video. Windows Windows is the most widely used operating system in the world, created by Microsoft. Okay, so immediately I can just tell this is an AI voice. This is

3:48 pretty obvious. They're not trying to make a very humanoid AI voice. And if we can just skim through this video here, play it a little bit, skim through, you can see that the editing is very simple. It's mainly just a collage of different images. So, this would actually be something that most people would be able to learn themselves if you just watched an editing tutorial on YouTube or you knew basic editing. I think anybody could run this. And this is just using a script and an AI voice. So, this channel you could probably run entirely for free. And all of his videos are around 8 minutes long. So realistically, I think anybody, whether your mom or grandma, I I actually think anybody could run this channel without paying a single dime for editing or for thumbnails or for anything because if we go back once again, these thumbnails are very, very simple. Now, if you did want to go and hire somebody to do these things for you, I can give you guys kind of an estimate as well. So for the editing, I would say something like this would

4:34 probably cost around5 to $6 a minute. So for a 9minute video, we're going to be having around $45, let's say. for the AI voice. I mean, that's not going to cost anything. Just an 11 Lab subscription. Thumbnail. I mean, realistically, if you have a thumbnail artist for something like this, this should not be more than $10. And just for everybody here, I probably would just write your own scripts because script writing can get pretty expensive. Script writing for this would be probably the same as the editing, right around $45, $50. So, realistically, I think if you had a team running this channel, this could be run for around $100 per video. if we're talking about the thumbnail editing and the script writing. If you just had a thumbnail artist in the editing, this might cost you $55 a video. But like I said, that's if you don't want to put any time into this. That would be to fully automate the channel. I think this channel in specific. Anybody could actually run this themselves. The editing is extremely simple. Um it might

5:21 take you a while, right? That's why you'd be getting out one video a week. But as you can see, he's not even uploading weekly. He he had a upload three days ago than three weeks ago. So if somebody's watching this, you guys could probably come in and take this guy's niche and just upload more often than him and probably do better. maybe once a week for example. So that's going to be my analysis of this channel. So where am I going to rank this on the tier list? Well, I am going to have to give us some points for how easy this channel is to run. However, I don't think it's going to be making that much money. If we look, this channel has 600,000 views in around a 6 week time span. We average this to 400,000 views per month. This channel, I mean, realistically, if you have a better upload schedule than him, I think this might be making $2 to $3,000 a month if you were to upload more consistently than this guy. Because of that, I would give this S tier for how easy it is to run. But for how much you're making and how much time this might take, I'm going

6:07 to put this in honestly, it's going to be between C and B tier because it's really not making that much. I'm going to have to put this one in C tier for now. And keep in mind, this is going to be respective to all of the channels that we're about to look at. I already looked at them before and kind of got a general idea of as to where I'm going to rank these. So, this isn't a C-tier channel, but Ctier compared to everything on this list. Now, here's the next channel we're going to be taking a look at. how people make money. Now, let's look at a few things. Number one, we're going to look at the criteria again. Let's just remember this. I'm going to keep just going back just so you guys can remember this in your head. So, let's look at this first video. How old is it? This first video was uploaded. Honestly, this first video is actually just around two months old. So, 8 weeks or so, barely older than the other channel. And if we look, they do

6:53 get a consistent view count. I'll give them consistent view count. They had a 400k view video as well. But their average view count, once again, isn't super high. However, there's a difference here. This is in the finance niche. So, the RPM here is going to be very high. So, if we're looking at a finance niche, you can just double or even triple the view count in some cases as to how much you'd be making on a normal channel, if that makes sense. If that doesn't make sense, just know that per thousand views are probably getting paid a lot more than that last channel we looked at, for example. So, because of that, even if they're getting less views, which this channel is actually not even getting less views, then this is actually pretty good for a finance channel. So, let's take a look at one of these videos. All this chase ambulances I'm doing. So once again, we got some pretty simple editing here. This is also just images and whatnot. I'm going to give this probably the actual same amount as the other channel as to how much it's going to cost to run this with

7:39 a team. Once again, $5 a minute for the editing, probably around the same for the script writing. And then thumbnails, once again, super simple, maybe $10 per thumbnail. So this would also be $100 a video would be my guess. But once again, this is the type of channel that you could run yourself. Only difference here is that they are not using an AI voice for these videos. However, you very easily could. Although, preferably for long form, I like to say to not use an AI voice depending on the channel. For something like this, like a finance channel, I probably wouldn't use an AI voice just to give yourself more credibility. However, the voice over in these videos, in my opinion, are pretty low quality. The mic quality isn't super high, so I don't think it actually matters too much. And like I said, compared to the last channel, the thumbnails, everything's pretty similar in terms of how difficult this would be to run. I also think that you can do this yourself. However, this would obviously just take some more research to look into on how to actually make

8:24 videos like this because you need to understand the topic you're talking about. But we have AI nowadays. It's pretty easy to do some research. So, where would I put this on the tier list? I'm going to put this this would in my opinion be similar to Ctier, but because it's in the finance niche and he's getting fairly consistent views, I'm actually going to put this channel in B tier. All right. Now, let's look at our next channel called Uni Diamond Talk. This channel is also pretty recent. And if we look at their very first video, we got March 4th. So that is around 6 weeks old as well. And let's look, are they getting consistent views? This is Faceless over 8 minutes, right? And it looks like they are getting pretty consistent views. And their average view count is fairly high, right? They have two videos here that aren't doing too well, but they have a 300K view uh 300K view video, 160K view video, 80K, 80K, and then just 220Ks. So realistically, most of their videos are getting more than 50 60K views. So this is actually

9:10 not too bad. and their videos can be pretty long in some cases, which of course you're going to get ad more ad revenue the longer your video is. So, let's take a look at one of these videos, see if we can get an estimate as to how much this would cost to run or if you could do it yourself and then we can make our rating from there. Okay, so they have a lot of footage going on here. The editing for this type of video seems like it is very easy. I mean, I don't actually see much editing besides cuts, some charts. Once again, this is another channel with very simple editing. Although I do think, for example, if you were to get a script writer for this type of video, they definitely would charge a little bit more because it seems like there's going to be more research into this very specific niche down topic of baseball. I'll probably give this one $6 to $7 a minute per for the editing just because you have to find specific clips. That's what the editor is going to have to do. So, if we're basing at $7 a minute, their their videos are actually around

9:57 almost 20 minutes long per video. So, the editing might be around $140 per video here. But of course, they're going to be making more money per thousand views because of the fact that, you know, their videos are longer. So, I'd say they're probably paying around $140 for editing. For script writing, this would also be another $120 or so dollars. Thumbnails, these are pretty simple. I would give them around $20 or so. So, realistically, an entire video here, this could cost upwards of $250 to $300, but the videos are also a little bit longer. I definitely like the high average view count compared to the other channels that we just looked at as well. So, if I'm going to go onto the tier list here, I would say that this one's going to be a little bit harder because of the fact that if you want to run this yourself, you definitely can. The editing is super simple. Once again, you can actually run this one yourself. This one might be the easiest to run, especially if you know some things about

10:42 baseball, but it would be a high cost to run this because they do have longer videos. And you don't want to come into a niche and then essentially have shorter videos because then you're just going to do worse, right? Longer videos typically do better on YouTube. So, if you're going to go into this niche, you don't want 10-minute videos, you should also want 20-minute videos. So that's why it costs more. I also think the thumbnails are a little bit better. The editing is going to be a little bit more costly because of the actual finding of clips. However, this channel can have some potential to make some good money and you still can run it yourself. So I'm going to give this one B tier as well. And and I'm not going to put these in any particular order. The anything in Btier is going to be equivalent. Anything in Ctier, A tier, S tier. Now we got our next channel, The Paint Professor. Now immediately if you look at this channel, you're going to see a lot of views. This is one of our first

11:28 channels here that is going to be super super good. So, how old is this channel? This channel is also around 6 weeks old. A lot of these channels actually started like March 5th, March 6th, which is a little weird. However, let's just take a look at the channel once again. We got over 8 minutes long besides one video for whatever reason. We have a very consistent view count aside from their latest video, but this could still pick up views of course and a very high average view count. I mean, their average view count must be almost a million here or more because of this 4 million view video, 2 million view video. Now, let's take a look at a few things. First of all, their thumbnails, very simple. Once again, $10 per thumbnail max. Now, it does look like they have drawings in their videos. It's not just still images. And once again, I mean, realistically, I think for almost any channel, you can run an AI voice. So, whether they're using one or not doesn't matter, but

12:13 they do have drawings here. So, I'm going to put this because of simple drawings. I'm going to put this at $8 to $9 a minute. And they're doing around 10-minute videos. So, this is going to be $80 to $90 per minute for editing. This one might be a little harder to do yourself. just because I mean if you want to draw I mean you can these are very simple drawings so you could do this yourself it would just take a lot of time to do so thumbnails once again very simple like I said so if we're talking without a script this might be $100 per video with a script maybe 150 to1 170 a video is my guess here but they are getting a lot of views and this channel is pretty recent I'll be honest I'm going to have to put this one in probably I mean it's going to be between A and S tier I'm going to put it in S tier for Now, I'm going to be honest. The the view count is super high. I

12:58 mean, their channel is 6 weeks old and they have how many views do they have? They have 8 million views, right? Obviously, they're not going to be monetized for all these views because they need to wait until they have the monetization um requirements and then apply and wait for it. But if all of these views were monetized, I mean, their channel's six weeks old, right? And with this amount, they probably could have made upwards of $30,000 or more dollars in a six week time period. And if that's not S tier, then I don't know what is. Now, the next channel we have here is called Gumball Universe. And this one, this one is a kicker. They do have some shorts on their channel. For whatever reason, they don't perform well. I typically keep long form and short form videos separate. But let's take a look at this. Look at the views here. Super consistent. I mean, 700K, 300, 400, a million, 150K, 1.4 million

13:45 here. How old is their channel? Their channel is going to be Oh, March 6th as well. What is going on with March 5th and 6th? I have no idea. But this channel's also six weeks old. This one is super super good. Let's take a look at their videos. And we get some very So, just skimming through their video a bit. It looks like they have a little bit more animation, a lot more clips. They have subtitles as well. I'm going to give this one similar to the last channel we looked at, which I'm going to say this is more than likely around $9 per minute. Their videos are a little bit inconsistent on how long they are, but if their videos are an average 15 minutes here, then we're going to have around $140 or so dollars per video for the editing. Thumbnails. These thumbnails aren't bad. I'm going to give these thumbnails around $25. Once again, with just the editor and thumbnail artist, I'm going to estimate this might be between $150, $170 per video, and

14:31 that's without the script writer, of course, because I'm going to just keep saying it. I wouldn't recommend getting a script writer until your channel is monetized because then, you know, okay, the channel's making money. Let's reinvest that money. Can you edit this yourself? I mean, realistically, if you are very newbie editor, this might be a little bit more difficult to edit yourself. Uh, you still could, but I just wouldn't say it's as easy as the other channels we looked at. However, Gumball Universe, this channel, the views are super super good. And although the average view count might potentially be lower than the last channel we looked at, the consistency on the views is absolutely absurd. I'm going to have to put this channel in S tier as well. This is a super good channel. Um, if you're interested in this, great. I This is just an amazing channel. And one thing that's interesting is you can actually take this niche and just do this with a different show. Instead of Gumball, you

15:17 could do another similar type of show, maybe Adventure Time, for example. Now, the next channel I got is called Rock of Ages. Now, this channel is a little weird, and I saw a few channels pop up like this because their first video is 3K views. Their latest one has 900 views. But if you look in between 200K, two with a million, a million, 90K, 900K. But the thing is, all of these videos are in the same type of genre besides the first one and the oldest one, which I'm not sure why they did that. And a lot of their videos are also under eight minutes. So, this is a very weird looking channel. And if we click on these videos, these are like iMovie made videos. I wouldn't ever pay an editor or a thumbnail artist for anything like this because anybody can make this thumbnail. Anybody could do this. Editing is literally just montages. These are super simple videos. I mean, this might be one of the easiest channels I've seen to run in the past 3

16:03 4 months to be honest. So, the fact we're getting so many views is a little astonishing in my opinion. And the RPM for this might not even be too terrible because this is targeting a slightly older demographic as well. However, this is just such a strange channel to look at. This isn't going to be like the other ones we saw. I'm not even going to give a budget on this because this is just insanely easy to make. I mean, I could make the thumbnail and the entire video of this in maybe 20 minutes. I'm not going to put this in S tier just because of how strange of a channel it is. Uh, I will put an A tier just because this is the easiest channel on the list by far. I mean, this takes absolutely no effort. You could do two videos, three videos a week and this would take you no time at all. The next channel on the list we have here is The Final Guard. Now, this channel is clearly about Squid Game here, and as you can see, all the videos are over eight minutes long. They're faceless and

16:49 they're getting pretty good views. However, recently, their channel's not been getting as many views. Their latest video, obviously, I'm not going to count that because that's an outlier. However, we have 40K views. 40K views over and over here. Their first few videos did do well. So, they have a consistent view count, pretty low average at the moment, but this channel, of course, can still make money. So, let's take a look. So, the first video here was on March 1st. Everybody's starting beginning of March for some reason. Let's take a look how easy this channel is to run. Squicky behind the seat was exposed the game. So, this is very similar to one of the first channels we saw. I believe it was the byite-size explainer. Although, it's a little bit of a different format. I mean, the editing here, this is going to be maybe $4 a minute, $5 a minute. Once again, they're 10-minute videos, so $40 to $50 for editing. Thumbnails are going

17:36 to be a little bit better. So, I'm going to say this is maybe $20 for a thumbnail. $15 to $20 for a thumbnail. So, without a script writer, we're looking at between $60 to maybe $80 a video. But once again, this is something you could very easily do yourself. And that's a great thing about this list here is that I didn't want to include any channels that were super super high production value. I found a few, but they would cost maybe $500 to $1,000 a video, which I just didn't see the point in uh adding those to this video. So, I'm going to say this is very similar to the very first channel we looked at. um the byite-size explainer. So, I'm going to put this in C tier as well. Next, we have this channel called Safe by Design. Immediately, we can see they have a pretty high average view count. They have one video that didn't do super well compared to the rest. But that could also just be an outlier, right? This is only 3 days old, their latest video, and

18:21 already has 200,000 plus views. So, if we click on their first video, it was uploaded end of February. So, this is once again well in the 3month time period that I'm looking for. with like widening the base. Now, just skimming through this video a little bit, I'm going to guess that the editing for this is going to cost around $7 a minute. So, we have 12 minute video average here. So, this is going to be, let's say, around $85 per video. The thumbnails are also pretty good. I'm going to give this around $20 per video. So, let's just say without a thumbnail artist, this is going to be between $100 to $120 a video. Once again though, I do think you could edit this yourself. Even if you have no editing experience, you probably could. It might be a little bit more difficult, I'll be honest, than some of the other channels, but I do like the consistent view count. I do like this niche in general. It's pretty original

19:06 as well. I'm actually going to go ahead and put this channel into a tier. This is a pretty good channel in my opinion. And last but not least, we have this channel that's joke. This is going to be very similar to uh these two channels in the C tier right here. Now, that doesn't mean I'm going to put it in Ctier. It's just similar in the way that the channel is formatted. If we look at their very first video, it's going to be March 10th. So, beginning of March, again, this is actually the most recently started channel just by a few days on this entire list. And once again, this is a very simple edit uh edited video. Anybody could do this. The thumbnails, once again, $10 and then $4 a minute, I'd probably say for this. These are around 20 minute videos though, so it's going to have a slightly higher RPM than the other two channels in Ctier, but it will be around $80 for the video and then 90 total probably, I would say,

19:52 with the thumbnail. And that's once again not including a script writer, you writing the script, or having AI write you the script. And once again, it has every criteria here aside from the high average view count. So, consistent view count. It has a consistent view count. Um, it's over eight minutes long, faceless. However, it is in like the 40K view range. They do have three really good videos though here. 500K, 400K, 240K, and the rest are 40K. We're not going to include here. So, half of their videos are in the 500 Half of their videos are in the 200 to 500K view range, and then half of them are in the 40 to 50K view range. So, because of that, this is going to be better than these uh two Ctier channels, but I would put this in B tier. I'll be honest, looking at this list, I kind of do want to mess around and choose my order here

20:38 as well. So, in the S tier, I'm going to put this in order. I think this order is correct. A tier, I'm going to put this first. Um, right here, the Safety by Design channel. I think this order in B tier is correct, and then I think this order and Ctier would make more sense. So, this is going to be my finalized list. I'm also going to include all of the links in the description for all of these channels. And you know what? I'm actually going to go ahead and put them in this exact order that you see. So, one, two, three, four. I'll put them in the order down below. Hopefully, you guys learned something from this video. Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you in the next one. Peace.
