How I Monetized My AI Music Channel in Less Than 16 Days

Creating a successful YouTube channel, especially one focused on music, might seem like a daunting task. However, I’ve managed to monetize my AI music channel in less than 16 days, and in this article, I'm going to break down the entire process for you—completely free.

Before diving into the details, it's important to understand the reasons behind the challenges many face when trying to find success on YouTube. A significant part of this struggle stems from the habit of skipping through videos in search of quick answers. By doing this, valuable insights and secrets are often missed. Therefore, I encourage you to take your time absorbing each step of the process outlined in this guide.

Finding Inspiration

Part 2/7:

My journey began by studying successful channels in the copyright-free music niche. Two of these channels stood out: Nefx and Infraction. Nefx has achieved a staggering 3.1 billion views from just 465 uploads by focusing exclusively on copyright-free music. Similarly, Infraction, which also employs the same strategy, has seen impressive results in a short time.

Drawing from these examples made it clear that the copyright-free music niche is not only viable but thriving—evidenced by the fact that close to 1 million people search for the keyword “copyright-free music” every month according to VidIQ. If you are interested in generating revenue from your YouTube channel, this niche is a fantastic place to start.

Setting Up Your Channel

Part 3/7:

Now that we've established the potential of this niche, let’s move forward with the essential steps. The first action is setting up your YouTube channel. While many are already familiar with this process, I am willing to create a separate, detailed video if there is enough interest.

Once your channel is operational, the next step involves identifying the most popular music genres. Understanding genres—styles or categories of music—is crucial for channel growth. To do this effectively, analyze at least three successful competitors to see what content resonates with their audiences. This analysis will help you replicate successful trends within your own channel.

Crafting the Perfect Music Prompt

Part 4/7:

This part of the process is crucial, as it directly influences the quality of music you will create. Using tools like ChatGPT can help streamline this task by generating specific prompts based on popular genres. For instance, if you were to analyze a popular channel's content and identify an engaging genre—like “epic action cinematic”—you can then input this genre into ChatGPT. The AI will generate prompts that outline the theme, mood, structure, instrumentation, and other vital aspects needed for making music.

Generating Music with AI

Part 5/7:

After crafting the perfect prompt, it’s time to turn that into audio. I recommend using a user-friendly AI music generation tool that allows you to own the rights to any music you create. This ensures you won’t run into copyright issues when uploading your music to YouTube.

Once you generate the audio, you will need to convert it into a video format suitable for YouTube. Adding a Spectrum Visualizer enhances engagement, so I suggest using a tool that offers free audio-to-video conversion services. By customizing the visualizer with your song title and artist name, you can create an appealing video.

Optimizing Your Videos for Maximum Reach

Part 6/7:

When uploading your created video, it's not enough to just throw it online. Successful YouTube channels optimize their content strategically. To achieve this, work on creating research-backed, keyword-rich titles and descriptions.

Using tools like ChatGPT can elevate your title and keywords to a new level of engagement. By prompting it with details about your music and asking it to generate relevant keywords, you can ensure your video is positioned effectively within search results.

The Importance of Descriptions and Tags

Make your descriptions rich with keywords, as this is critical for visibility on YouTube. Your descriptions should also include relevant hashtags, enhancing the discoverability of your video.

Part 7/7:

When uploading your video, remember to set the license type to ‘Creative Commons’ which helps in attracting more views by allowing other creators to use your content legally.

Conclusion: The Journey Ahead

By following these steps—finding inspiration, setting up your channel effectively, generating quality audio, and optimizing your videos—it's feasible to achieve rapid monetization on platforms like YouTube. The methods discussed can save you time and help streamline your journey.
