The MJ Family is a popular YouTube channel created by FunnyMike, a famous YouTube star, and it features his girlfriend Jaliyah together with his son Londyn Johnson. They have an estimated net worth of $3 million. Their content is composed of pranks, vlogs, challenges and anything they find interesting. They upload an average of 2-3 videos per week which tend to be massively popular.
How Much Money Does The MJ Family Earn On YouTube?
The channel has over 3 million subscribers as of 2020 and has accumulated over 250 million views so far. It is able to get an average of 180,000 per day from different sources. This should generate an estimated revenue of $900 per day ($330,000 a year) from the ads that appear as the videos play.
YouTubers get paid $2 – $7 per 1000 monetized views after YouTube takes its cut. Monetized views range from 40% – 80% of the total views. All these are influenced by several factors like device played on, the location of the viewer, ad inventory, how many ads there are on a video, how many people skip the ads, type of advertisement, ad engagement, type of content etc. The cost of an ad view is based on an auction between advertisers based on views. Advertisers have to bid a minimum of $0.01 per view.
There is also a program known as Google Preferred where deep-pocketed companies can target ads on the top 5% most popular content. The ad rates here are higher than normal. Apart from ads, YouTubers also generate extra from YouTube Red viewers who pay a monthly fee to view premium content on YouTube plus watch videos without ads. Here they get paid based on watch time on their videos. The longer the viewers watch their videos, the more money they earn.
The couple makes extra income through Funny Mike’s other YouTube channel.
