If you are an aspiring Content Creator or just curious to know how Creators actually sustain themselves, read on.

Disclaimer: I have tagged a few creators ONLY as References & examples for the points mentioned.

1. PLATFORM REVENUE: YouTube runs ads in the videos uploaded by the creators & shares a part of the Ad-revenue with the Creators!
Lately Facebook has also started doing this.
This model provides good revenue for the creators.

Ajey Nagar @CarryMinati & Amit @iAmitBhadana are two of the top YouTube earners (owning to the volume of subscribers) and Aakash Chopra @cricketaakash & Nas @nasdaily are two of the top creators on Facebook.

2. BRAND DEALS: The most common & also the highest revenue generators for Creators - BRANDS! Brands pay creators to promote or integrate their products in the content released on public platforms.
