If you were a YouTuber born in the year 1998 (MrBeast's age), sadly you will probably never be on this list lol

Who’s the biggest YouTuber your age? The most-subscribed creators from 18 to 50:

My theory is that YouTube never expected anyone to pass 100M subscribers, so when MrBeast hit 200M, they just made him a custom award Then they realized other creators were actually going to hit these milestones too and figured they should probably go back to a consistent design lol

Fun facts about YouTube play buttons: Before silver play buttons, 100K subscribers got you a $500 gift card and a camera case The crystal in the red diamond award is made by Baccarat in France Their maker, Society Awards, also makes trophies for the Golden Globes and Emmys

I made a personal website inspired by the YouTube homepage blank.tv

For everyone asking how the @Sidemen did it in just 1 video… All 7 members already had massive audiences on their own channels. When they launched the main Sidemen account in 2016, they each sent their fans over and hit 1M subscribers in just 3 days. One of the greatest examples of audience building on YouTube.

If you need a reminder that success takes time... MrBeast posted 467 videos before reaching 1 million subscribers

YouTubers are building empires. Some employ hundreds of people. Others reach tens of millions of subscribers with teams of a few dozen. Same platform. Very different businesses.

In case you're wondering, these were the only channels with 1M subscribers in 2009: Smosh Fred Ryan Higa Universal Music Group Shane Dawson

In 2009, there were only 5 channels on YouTube with 1M+ subscribers Today, there are nearly 80,000

Some of the coolest facts about this: Logan Paul was one of the fastest YouTubers to reach 10M subscribers, doing it in just 11 months MrBeast took nearly 7 years to hit 10M. Imagine if he had quit! Ronaldo hit 10M subscribers in just 11 HOURS lol

How long it took the world’s biggest YouTubers to hit 10M subscribers:

The best YouTube thumbnails don’t reinvent the wheel They take what already works and make it better Inspiration fuels innovation

Everyone overcomplicates YouTube: 1 - Get really good at making one type of video 2 - Master your titles and thumbnails 3 - Once you’ve figured out what works, start experimenting with other formats The biggest mistake creators make is trying to do too much at once
