Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg is the biggest name when it comes to YouTube celebrities. He has been involved in an intense rivalry with T-Series for getting the most number of subscribers on YouTube where he now stands second. The popular YouTuber has now talked about some of his secrets of maximizing YouTube earnings.
Let us take a closer look at what makes him the most popular YouTuber on the planet:
PewDiePie’s Comments on YouTube Earnings
Commenting about YouTube and the potential to make money off it, Kjellberg commented that talking about expensive items is what makes you make more money! Basically, the concept here is, the more your video focuses on expensive items, the more are the chances of it showing ads about expensive items. “You get better ads”, he said.
As of this writing, PewDiePie’s net worth is between $30 to $50 Million, having earned $20 Million of this in 2018 itself!
The Rivalry with T-Series: The 100 Million Mark
One of the most loved YouTubers, PewDiePie started off his account in 2006 and has since become a viral sensation with a massive following. However, over the past couple of years, he faced an intense rivalry from Indian content producing giant T-Series, a race which he has since lost.
T-Series is now the channel with the most subscribers (having crossed the 100 Million mark last week). Kjellberg, however, is a close second – and is rapidly approaching the 100 Million mark himself, which is likely to be crossed sometime in June 2019.
