  • But ChilledCow is not the only channel that has a 24-7 video.

  • There are tons of other channels following ChilledCow's lead, and many of them have gained massive followings and profits in the process.

  • In this video, we will discuss how anyone can set up a 24-7 stream, how you can gain a massive following by doing so, and why there may be a fortune waiting for you after you learn how it's done.

  • As an additional bonus, we will give you some ideas to get you started with your own 24-7 channel.

  • If you are interested in learning how money is made in the oddest ways, give us a sub, a like, and if you're really odd, a comment.

  • Now let's get to the ChilledCow.

  • With 5.3 million subscribers, ChilledCow is a pioneer in the 24-7 YouTube video niche.

  • Created by an unknown man named Dimitri, the channel has become the number one radio for beats to study or relax to.

  • Even Will Smith has taken notice of the cow, and he created his own version.

  • But with such popularity, one has to wonder, how do they run their video 24-7 without interruption?

  • The answer is...

  • O Bubble.

  • O Bubble is a service dedicated to providing virtual cloud servers to those who need them.

  • We know this sounds very technical, so we'll break it down in a moment.

  • With four different levels, Platinum, Sapphire, Gold, and Diamond, each plan comes with a guaranteed 99% server uptime, meaning that you shouldn't have to worry about your video ever going down.

  • Let's break it down in seven easy-to-follow steps.

  • Step 1. Go to obubble.com and sign up for a plan.

  • Depending on the level of quality, you will pay anywhere between $29.99 and $69.99 monthly.

  • Step 2. Wait until they contact you.

  • Step 3. Download AnyDesk.

  • AnyDesk is a free tool that allows you to access your virtual desktop.

  • Step 4. Follow the steps in the confirmation email to log in to your private server.

  • Once you log in, you will see your virtual desktop that looks like this.

  • The virtual desktop comes preloaded with OBS and Streamlabs.

  • OBS and Streamlabs are the top two softwares that allow you to stream to YouTube.

  • You can choose either, but we recommend Streamlabs since you won't have to do much to get started.

  • Step 5. Find your YouTube stream key, copy it, and paste it into Streamlabs.

  • Step 6. Set up your video and background, and music.

  • You can use a stock video that is copyright-free, or make your own.

  • You can use services like EpidemicSound.com to source premium music that is copyright-free.

  • Make sure in your settings you click Loop so your video plays over and over.

  • Step 7. Click Start Streaming.

  • After you click Start Streaming, your stream will be live on YouTube.

  • With your channel now set up, it's time to look at ways you can start making money.

  • 24x7 channels have an upper hand to regular channels because they run non-stop.

  • For those of you who don't know why this is important, let's take a look at the requirements to become a YouTube program partner.

  • YouTube requires channels to have 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours watched before they pay you for your content.

  • If you're a new channel, it's hard to reach those requirements.

  • But if you have a 24x7 channel, you always have people watching your content, meaning you will rack up hours watched and subscribers quicker.

  • The quicker you do that, the quicker you'll be YouTube partnered and YouTube paid.

  • But there are other ways you can make money besides the YouTube partner program.

  • If we take a look at the Chilled Cal channel and go to their 24x7 video description, we can see there are several different links.

  • One link that caught our eye was the link to their merchandise store.

  • Because they were using a Bitly link, we were able to see how many people clicked their link.

  • And to our surprise, they had 452,758 free clicks since March of 2018.

  • Even if only 1% of people bought something from their store, at an average of $20 per order, they would have made $90,000 in free money.

  • Let's look at another channel titled FlareTV.

  • FlareTV amassed over 2 million subscribers by hosting a 24x7 video of a subscriber count battle between PewDiePie and T-Series.

  • At the end of the stream, over 116 million people viewed their video, and thousands of people donated to the channel.

  • That's right. People donated their own money to the channel, even though the video was nothing more than a battle of which channel would reach 100 million subscribers first.

  • Crazy, right?

  • We wanted to get in on the 24x7 fun, so we thought of 5 different 24x7 channel ideas that you can try out.

  • 1. 24x7 Self-Motivation Channel 2. 24x7 Stock Market Watch Channel 3. 24x7 Bible Verse Channel 4. 24x7 Cute Dogs and Puppies Channel 5. 24x7 How-To Slash Tutorial Channel

  • In a specific niche.

  • We recommend testing different things out.

  • You never know, you may become the next FlareTV or ChilledCow.

  • If you guys liked this video, please be sure to leave a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, or stay odd forever.

  • Until the next video, peace out!
