I’ve been hearing about this interesting case where someone who creates educational science and tech videos switched from YouTube to another platform. They’re apparently earning three times more from advertisements now. I’m really curious about which platform this might be and how their monetization works compared to YouTube. Has anyone else experienced better ad revenue on alternative video platforms? I’m wondering if this is just a one-off situation or if there are actually better opportunities out there for educational content creators. Would love to hear from other creators who have tried different platforms and what their experience was like with earnings and audience engagement.
It seems plausible that the individual transitioned to either Rumble or Odysee, as both platforms have been known to offer significantly better revenue splits for educational content creators compared to YouTube. Rumble, in particular, provides upfront payments and favorable ad percentages to entice creators to switch platforms. However, potential earnings could still vary; while the CPM may be higher, both platforms have smaller audiences. I’ve seen tech channels that attempted to share their content across both platforms—they experienced higher CPMs, yet overall traffic was lower, resulting in minimal changes in their monthly earnings. The claim of triple earnings is interesting; perhaps they struck a unique deal or their content resonates exceptionally well with that platform’s user base.
