(Lee Kei) is one of the ten most famous Russian YouTube bloggers. Having posted several of his videos on the YouTube channel, Lee Kei contacted CarambaTV and they offered him an affiliate program, that is, earning money through YouTube, the agreement implied that Lee must release at least one video every week on his channel.

Lee agreed and invited his friend Kostik, who worked on Latvian television, to film a humorous show “At the Wall”, in the first episode of which Lee was going to tell viewers that you can bargain in stores. During the work on the video, the name of the show changed to “Project GOAT”. Over time, the themes of the releases from everyday life changed to acute social and philosophical ones.

Known under the pseudonym Brian, he is one of the most popular YouTubers, posting various funny videos on his channel. Many of Brian's haters believe that he borrowed the nickname of one of the most popular let's play players on Russian YouTube - Oleg Brain (TheBrainDit). Although it is not known exactly whether Brain borrowed the nickname from Oleg Brain or not. But the fact that the nicknames “Brain” and “Brain” are very similar tells us that Brian could have stolen Oleg’s nickname.

Many also accuse Brian of being similar in the content of his videos to the most popular video blogger in the CIS - EeOneGuy (Ivangai). This is explained by the fact that in his videos, Brian also has fun in front of the camera and does not advertise anything in his videos. But this theory is refuted by the fact that Brian’s videos are to some extent educational than those of Ivangay, and the fact that Brian throughout his entire activity makes only his own content.

One of the most popular Russian video bloggers on YouTube. Spielberg is a pseudonym; in her own words in an interview with Media Mag magazine, she made an “agreement” with her parents that no one would know her real name in exchange for complete freedom on the Internet. Internet fame began after uploading several videos in English on YouTube. Thousands of Americans and many friends on the other side of the world subscribed to it.

This noticeably increased her self-esteem and soon Sasha was only thinking about the further development of her project, ceasing to communicate with her family. Because of this, her parents decided to send her to a boarding school abroad. After arriving in Russia, she began filming videos in Russian. She has two channels on YouTube: music and vlogs.

Subsequently, video walkthroughs and other videos with similar topics appeared on his channel.

Opens the top three most popular vloggers on Russian YouTube. He is the host of the blog “This is Good” and gives his comments on videos sent by viewers or found by him. Interaction is usually used at the end of the transmission. In the early episodes of the program, another character participated - the voice (low bass) of “illuminator Nastenka,” who began to appear again from the 164th to the 178th issues. A distinctive feature of the project is the absence of obscene language.

YouTube viewers perceive the blog “This is Good” as an alternative to another popular blog “+100500”. Both blogs are Russian-language analogues of the Ray William Johnson show. From the 29th issue, questions are removed rather than written. From the 48th episode of the show, it was released in HD format, and from the 55th to the 208th episode, the show began to be released with interactive subtitles in English for foreign users. Since the 492nd episode, the show has been released in 4K format.

As the host of the Internet show “+100500”, he is one of the most popular video bloggers on the Runet. Maxim Golopolosov makes video reviews of funny videos found on the Internet. The comic effect is achieved by gluing together fragments of the video clip with the presenter's comments. Four videos are selected for each episode. As a rule, each episode is named by title, plot, or key phrase from the last video (the only exception is “Very New Year’s Episode”).

The shooting is done against the backdrop of a leopard-print bedspread (Internet users often call it a carpet), which Maxim used to cover the sofa with.

The popular blogger from TheBrianMaps channel was born in 1999 in the Samara region. Later, the guy’s family moved to St. Petersburg, where he graduated from school and is now receiving higher education. The idea to make videos came to him back in the 5th and 6th grades of school, when the guy was looking through the creations of famous bloggers. In 2011, he created his first channel, where he posted let’s plays and instructions for various software. Then he was inspired by the example of Maxim Golopolosov and began filming funny reviews on videos from the Internet, but this did not bring success to the guy, although the channels have not been deleted to this day.

In 2012, he created TheBrianMaps and, like many current YouTube stars, began posting videos about the game Minecraft. He punctuated his let's plays with funny videos from his life and filming vlogs with friends, which over time allowed him to attract more than 6 million subscribers. Now Maxim Tarasenko shoots exclusively comedic parodies and video sketches on a variety of topics from life. Its main audience is teenagers under the age of 17. The total number of views exceeded 1.5 billion.

Video blogger Mamix does not hide the fact that he started making videos to make money. Maxim Monakhov from Rubtsovsk, Altai Territory, gained his popularity thanks to various experiments and videos from the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) series. Almost 3 million people have subscribed to the guy’s YouTube channel. The incredibly capable Maxim runs other channels in parallel: It’s Mamix, Dawn, etc. Why Mamix needs so many channels is a mystery that torments many fans (the guy deletes some channels, and, as they say, sells some). He even managed to delete a channel with 4 million subscribers, which gave rise to a wave of indignation and heated discussions on the network.

Having gained popularity, the guy and his co-stars moved to Novosibirsk. Maxim Monakhov, born in 1996, is a secretive guy who is reluctant to share information about himself and his family. Therefore, avid and very curious YouTubers regularly search for Mamix, figuring out his house and entrance, new place of residence, etc. It is noteworthy that after a failed experiment with 10 thousand liters of Coca Cola and Mentos candies, on which Maxim spent 350 thousand rubles, his popularity began to grow rapidly. In July 2016, he entered the global TOP of YouTube in terms of growth rate in the number of subscribers. We also note that on his current channel the guy basically does not advertise anything, earning only from donations and YouTube affiliate programs.

HiMan

“The cutest video blogger on Russian-language YouTube” Andrey Shirgin was born in Yekaterinburg in 1999, but on his personal page on the social network “VKontakte” the guy indicated his city of residence as Novosibirsk. He registered his first channel called “Duf Cornege” in 2013, posting funny entertaining videos on it. At first, Andrey specialized in funny game streams, and later launched the “TP-show” section (the videos were dedicated to reviewing strange videos from the female and children’s YouTube audience).

Since October 2014, the HiMan channel has existed - a symbol of its creator’s growing up. On it, Shirgin moved from words to action - he began to shoot interesting videos from the “Do it yourself” category. He makes slot machines, sports cars, candy machines, etc. from cardboard. Significantly more people are subscribed to the channel in the new format: over 2.7 million (Dufa Cornege has much fewer fans - only 308 thousand). Fascinating videos about miracles made of cardboard (and more) have collected a total of 373 million views. For comparison: the total number of views for Sobolev is just over 340 million.

The most popular girl blogger in the Russian-language segment of YouTube was born in Moscow in 1997. Alexandra Balkovskaya chose an unusual pseudonym and promised her parents that no one would know their real name, and in return she received complete freedom on the Internet. For a long time, the girl hid her personal data, but in 2016, Kommersant published an article dedicated to her and her father, a businessman and producer collaborating with Timur Bekmambetov.

It was the father who was actively involved in promoting his daughter, paying for her appearances in videos of popular bloggers. A well-thought-out, successful project brings impressive profits: with 5.7 million subscribers and a total number of video views exceeding 846 million, she earns up to $40 thousand monthly (amounts vary depending on the monetization methods considered: payments from affiliate programs , rewards for integrated advertising, etc.).

Sasha Spielberg’s success extends far beyond the RuNet: she managed to play herself in the films “Hack the Bloggers” and “Yolki 5” (produced and directed by Timur Bekmabmetov). Alexandra spoke in the State Duma and interviewed the Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky. She sings and acts in films, and also plans to conquer the English-speaking audience, for which she created a separate channel, Sasha.

Max +100500, a chef by first education, is one of the TOP 5 most popular bloggers on Russian-language YouTube, and the total number of views of his humorous videos exceeds 1.8 billion. Maxim Golopolosov was born in the capital in 1989, graduated from 9 grades, entered technical College. After working for a year after graduation, he entered university, and in 2010 he began filming videos for YouYube.

Golopolosov openly borrowed the idea of ​​the show “+100500” from the world famous blogger from New York, Ray William Johnson. The format of sarcastic reviews of funny videos was quite new for Russia, which allowed the AdamThomasMoran channel team to quickly gain popularity. Now he has 9 million subscribers, who appreciate the sense of humor and subtle taste of the YouTuber, who invariably shoots videos against the backdrop of a leopard-print carpet.

Maxim simultaneously runs several projects: the channel about foreign travel MoranDays and the entertainment website CarabmaTV, plays guitar in the amateur music group 2ND Season. He also managed to work as a TV presenter on the Yu and Peretz channels. Golopolosov’s income from many successful projects is about 12 thousand US dollars per month!

Maryana Rozhkova, previously best known as Ivangay's girl, has become one of the leaders of the Russian-language segment of YouTube thanks to her attractive appearance, excellent taste, ability to apply makeup and a good sense of humor. She publishes videos on her channel about everyday life, travel, makeup, and more recently she has also been singing. Just over 6 million people have subscribed to the Maryana Ro channel.

Maryana was born in 1999 into a family of entrepreneurs from Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. When the girl was 9, her family moved to Japan, to the island of Hokkaido. The family's favorite was always pampered; from childhood she was taught to wear beautiful dresses, get her hair done in beauty salons and pose for the camera. While studying in middle school, she registered on social networks, published videos and photos from her life, and when the number of subscribers began to grow rapidly, she started her own YouTube channel. The first video, titled “How Much Do TV Shows Affect Me?” she published in 2014.

The girl's relationship with Ukrainian-born Let's Play player Ivan Rudsky brought her wide online fame. The girl claims that she did not know about the guy’s popularity, but when she saw his photo, she fell in love at first sight. They corresponded, then the guy moved to Japan, and the couple began dating. After 2 years of intense relationships, breakups and reunions, the couple finally broke up, and Rudskoy accused the girl of using him to gain popularity.

Nikolai Yurievich Sobolev was born in St. Petersburg in 1993. After graduating from St. Petersburg State University with a degree in economics and management, he devoted himself entirely to working on the YouTube projects Rakamakafo and Ready Steady Go. Initially, he organized social pranks together with his university friend Guram Narmania (for this the guys were awarded a prize from the St. Petersburg portal Sobaka.ru).

In 2015, he launched his own YouTube Life channel, where he covered current events and discussed pressing social issues. Since 2016, the channel has become a personal one. Over 4 million people have subscribed to SOBOLEV. After filming several episodes of the “Let Them Talk” program dedicated to the heartbreaking story of D.A. Shurygina, Sobolev ceased to be a “Kolya-hater” and became a “high-eater of all Rus'.” Many ill-wishers insist: it was the hype on the topic of rape that brought him fame and money (according to conservative estimates, his income from affiliate programs and advertising brings in up to $5,900 a month). He also released a book called YouTube: The Path to Success. How to get loads of likes and tons of money.” The guy clearly knows what he's talking about!

Eldar Kazanfarovich Dzharakhov was born in 1994 in a small village in the Lipetsk region, and then his family moved to Novokuznetsk. At the age of 5, the guy was diagnosed with diabetes, but this did not stop him from leading an active lifestyle and becoming a school star, participating in all public events. Together with his classmate and friend, Eldar began recording rap songs, and after graduating from high school, videos for YouTube.

Currently, 2.57 million people have subscribed to Dzharakhov’s channel. Since 2010, the “Successful Group” (the name of the duet of Eldar and Alexander “Tileks” Smirnov) has been recording funny videos for their own and other people’s songs. Popularity overtook the guys after the release of a track and video in 2012, dedicated to the popular MDK community and gaining 1 million views. What finally helped them become famous was a parody video of the music of the South Korean artist Psy - Gangnam Style. The parody, titled “Red Macasin,” received a total of 8.47 million views.

Eldar Dzharakhov’s personalized channel has existed since 2014. Then the blogger moved to St. Petersburg and began publishing videos about his life. After a short depression and a break from work in mid-2017, Eldar switched to filming parodies.

Frost

Yuri Mashtakov was born in 1995 in Nizhny Novgorod. Popularity came to Morozilka quite early: he registered his channel on YouTube in 2012. Let's play developer Frost made the first video about the game Sumotori Dreams, and later switched to the more popular Minecraft. Yuri shot his first works together with his brother, who later started his own channel called JustSnake.

Now Yuri Frost makes a lot of funny videos about his life, travels, sports, but he also doesn’t forget about his passion for video games. Morozilka is a unique blogger who, with a smaller number of subscribers (7 million people), significantly surpasses seasoned YouTubers, including Max +100500, in the total number of views - more than 2.7 billion! In 2015, Yuri Mashtakov’s channel received the “Golden Button” of YouTube, about which a separate video was shot. According to average estimates from various services, Frost earned more than $500 thousand from his channel, and his monthly income can reach $40 thousand.

Popular Russian blogger Kate Clapp has a million-strong army of Russian-speaking fans: more than 6 million people have subscribed to her YouTube channel. Ekaterina Trofimova (real name of the Internet celebrity) was born on May 19, 1993 in an ordinary Moscow family: the girl’s father is a mechanic, and her mother is an interior designer. Katya became interested in filming videos at the age of 16, and after graduating from the 1222nd secondary school in Moscow, she entered the directing department at the Institute of Contemporary Art.

Initially, Ekaterina Trofimova filmed videos for the FoggyDisaster channel, but since 2008 she registered a current resource - TheKateClapp. The main genre directions of the channel are funny sketches, reasoning, but there are also musical parodies. It is noteworthy that the first video uploaded to the new channel (“Half-liter mouse”) did not bring success to the girl. It started later - after the publication of the video “Anthem of the Schoolboys”. It was he who became the first to get 1 million views.

Katya Klap is a successful Russian blogger. Until 2015, she actively worked on two channels, temporarily reviving her first brainchild FoggyDisaster to publish parody videos, interactive videos, etc. Parody videos brought Ekaterina popularity, but now she actively shares her thoughts and observations with subscribers, has posted many vlogs about her daily life, shoots beauty videos, thanks to which she began collaborating with popular cosmetic brands such as Benefit (the brand produces exclusive gift sets together with a blogger).

Outstanding YouTube interviewer Yuri Dud was a successful, respected person even before the creation of the channel. Born in 1986 in the German Democratic Republic, Yuri Aleksandrovich Dud worked for a long time in the field of journalism, including at Rossiya-2. Journalism is Dudya’s calling, because at the age of 11 he began writing notes for various newspapers, and from the age of 14 he worked as a freelance correspondent for Izvestia. Since 1990, Yuri and his family have lived in Russia. He is, of course, a journalist by education: he graduated from Moscow State University in 2008.

Dudya's specialty is interviews: he took, takes and will take. At Shnur, Navalny, Posner, Sobchak, Artemy Lebedev. Having become proficient in this matter while working at Macht TV, in 2014 he registered his own channel called “vDud”. His talent for asking awkward and tricky questions helped him gather an army of 2.66 million subscribers, and the regiment is constantly growing: about 10 thousand people subscribe to the channel every day. The total number of views exceeds 221 million. Yuri successfully combines his profession as a YouTube blogger with the position of editor-in-chief of the sports portal Sports.ru. Since the end of 2017, he has been an official of Alfa-Bank. One of the oldest top bloggers in Russia is married and has two children.

Popular Russian beauty blogger Maria Wei is rightfully included in the TOP 3 most influential bloggers in Russia among women. The secret of success is simple: pretty appearance + self-irony + style and makeup tips suitable for a wide audience. Maria Kerimova (no, not Roma Zhelud's sister) was born in Tambov in 1992 (or maybe in 1994). Despite her wild popularity and 4 million army of subscribers, the girl is secretive: she keeps information about her personal life, relatives and friends secret.

The girl has a diploma in finance, but she never wanted to be one (at school she was interested in literature, philosophy, and later - filming videos). At first she participated in recording a video for someone else’s channel, and in high school she registered her own, promising her parents that no one would know her real name. Since 2012, she has been publishing videos about beauty and style, and has also taken part in the filming of video clips for the group “Nerves”, as well as Anton Rival and Dima Vlaskin. Real success was not long in coming, and since 2015 Maria has been hosting a television program about fashion and show business news on the youth channel “STS Love”.

Money and success came to Amiran Sardarov long before registering on YouTube. The man managed to write several books about running a business and managed an advertising agency, but in 2015 he wanted more - fame. He received it in full by registering the controversial channel “Khach’s Diary”. Videos in vlog format tell about luxurious Moscow life, show off expensive cars and beautiful girls, but they are presented cheerfully and with enthusiasm, which determined the success of the project.

Sardarov does not hide: the project is commercial. “As long as I’m in trend, I can sell at a high price,” he says about the cost of built-in advertising on the channel. Amiran’s main channel brings in about $6 thousand monthly, and the additional channel, “Chaika’s Warehouse,” brings in up to $7 thousand (it publishes materials that are not included in the main videos). Initially, Sardarov wanted to create a motivating channel for young people and share smart thoughts, but something went wrong: the blogger’s first project was a failure and could not cross the 10 thousand subscribers level in 1.5 years. Currently, 2.5 million people have subscribed to “Khach’s Diary”.

The most popular channel in Russia in the field of technology and gadget reviews, judging by subscribers, is Wylsacom. 5.2 million people subscribed to it, and the total number of views was more than 1 billion. In 2011, it was created by Valentin Petukhov, a long-time fan of Apple technology, who initially dedicated all the videos to products from Cupertino, but later diluted the content of the channel with reviews of Android smartphones. action cameras, quadcopters and other modern devices.

Valentin has always been interested in technology and wrote reviews for Internet portals as a freelancer. But such work did not bring the desired income, and he got a job as a lawyer. But this work did not bring pleasure, and then he found a way out - he created his own channel on YouTube. Its name contains the phrase “Would you like some apple?” (“Would you like an apple?”). At first, the country almost lost its excellent reviewer. Fortunately, the disillusioned former lawyer quickly began to gain popularity, and the idea of ​​deleting the channel no longer occurred to him. Valentin hides information about his personal life and biography. We only know that he is 32 years old, he is married, and the Petukhov family has two children: a son and a daughter.

A comedy video blogger from Latvia, born in 1987, during his school years he was fond of rock music and radio electronics. He still plays and sings in the musical group “Banana bomb”. While studying at the Riga Technical University, the guy performed in the KVN team “109 Room”, became interested in the topic of humor, and also knew excellent English, which allowed him to watch videos of the American Ray William Johnson. He was inspired by the example of an overseas celebrity, creating his own channel in 2010, and that’s good!

Almost 6 million people have subscribed to Stas Davydov’s channel, and the total number of views exceeds 1.3 billion. The Latvian joker publishes weekly reviews of funny videos from the Internet that subscribers send him. An important difference between Stas’s videos is the absence of obscene language, which abounds in the reviews of the main competitor, Max +100500. It is noteworthy that in 2016, an episode was released on the AdamThomasMoran channel, hosted by Stas Davydov.

The most popular social network, the second most visited search engine and just a great site for having a fun and educational time - it's all about YouTube. The number of users is growing regularly, and many novice bloggers cherish the dream of becoming famous. The YouTubers listed are an example of how important it is not to give up and believe in yourself. Who is your favorite YouTube blogger? Don't forget to like the best!

What video blogger doesn’t dream of conquering the global YouTube space? Youtube mania has so captured the virtual space that even the great one was forced to temporarily descend from Olympus to the sinful earth to discuss the phenomenon of Russian YouTube bloggers that unpleasantly struck him, using the example of Katya Klap.

TOP YouTube bloggers

YouTubers can appear to be free-spirited, creative, and extremely successful people. They, as others believe, have everything - fame, money, realization of opportunities. But all the famous Russian video bloggers are all under the hood of YouTube. And these are shackles that are not easy to free yourself from. But the most remarkable thing is that YouTubers broadcast in emptiness. They just sit - or stand, lie - and say something into the camera lens. Not the person sitting next to you. And into the camera. How you can avoid going crazy from this is beyond comprehension.

1.

St. Petersburg video blogger Oleg “Oblomoff” is quite famous on YouTube. He primarily cooks and reviews food deliveries on camera. Oblomoff is successful not only because he can recognize whether there is salt in a dish or not. He is smart, calculating, loves a witty word, and has a sense of humor. “ Eat a lot, eat tasty” is his usual parting word to the audience. Some commentators under Oblomoff’s videos like to note that they have to eat “beach packages” while the video blogger eats dishes from a twenty-thousandth order delivered from some restaurant in the Ginza Project chain.

Oblomov’s “food” channel is a 100% successful entertainment channel with near-zero value for self-development.

2. LARIN

From St. Petersburg - this is a different level of humor than Oblomoff. The humor is more intellectual, black, cynical, in the spirit of youth protest against “anything and everything.” If Larin stops being ironic, he will stop being Larin.

Larin tries to look on camera tired of the meaninglessness of life, indifferent, but with a touch of aristocratic perception of reality. That is, the same as almost any teenager in an ordinary metropolis, surrounded by a triple fence of comfort, cheap pleasures and illusory opportunity offered by modern civilization. do everything that is not prohibited. Therefore, Larin is extremely in demand among the young YouTube audience, which cannot but please the team of the St. Petersburg video blogger.

3. Monsieur Khovansky

Yuri Khovansky is the third video blogger from St. Petersburg, the cultural capital of the Third Rome.

Yuri Khovansky considers himself the only normal YouTube blogger. Perhaps that's fair. Because swearing flows from his mouth as easily as teriyaki sauce from Oblomoff’s overworked hands. But is this compatible - the cultured residents of St. Petersburg and the obscene recitatives of Monsieur Khovansky? Maybe yes. In the 1990s, all the cities of the Soviet empire that had sunk into oblivion were shaken up so much that in the second decade of the 21st century, even the intellectuals of the city on the Neva no longer think about purity of speech, but about their daily bread (with the exception, of course, true Petersburgers).

4. TheKateClapp

Katya Klap is one of the most popular authors of entertainment YouTube blogs. Her appearance is unique, her speech is inimitable, and the topics for her videos are as fresh as oranges just dumped on the shelves of a retail chain. There are no issues that Katya Klap would not discuss - weight loss systems, acne on the face, a new handbag, room decor, caring for cacti, etc.

5. SOBOLEV

Citizen Sobolev’s channel in 2017 was distinguished by a dizzying increase in the number of views and subscriber base. The blogger began to rise so quickly in the YouTube rankings thanks to a series of videos devoted to a topic that we will wisely keep silent about.

Nikolai Sobolev is good to everyone, but he has one problem - there is no mystery in him. Sobolev is as simple as a gingerbread. He talks a lot and colorfully, puts a lot of emotion into his speech, works energetically with his eyes and eyebrows - but the riddle never appears. Down and Out trouble started! You can always come up with a riddle. After all, you can put a riddle in any gingerbread if you want.

6.

Ivangay is a young-looking YouTube veteran blogger and an indoor genius showman. As it is written on his page, he “just makes videos”: plays games - alone or with other bloggers, makes videos, tells stories, etc., etc.

Probably, Satan himself helps him - his channel has more than 11 million subscribers - many times more than each individual YouTuber listed above. Not everyone manages to withstand the attention of an audience of millions without visible consequences for the psyche. But Ivangai is still coping with the burden of fame.

7.

There is such a profession - to be the center of attention of a very, very, very young public. Russian-speaking video blogger Maryana Ro is perfect for this profession. Maryana Ro will give every young citizen who arrives on her channel a good mood and provide a comprehensive set of rules on how to navigate through life without worries and misfortunes.

Progress does not stand still, and if previously you had to go to work to earn money, now it’s enough to create a video blog on YouTube and things will start to move forward. But what is vlogging? How to make money from this? And who can you look up to? We will address these questions in the publication.

A video blog is one of the types of blogs where information is conveyed not in writing or graphically, but via video. Recordings of such videos often combine embedded video, text support, music, photographs or pictures. Recordings can be different: a video can consist of one block or several parts. Today, the main and only platform on which all video blogs are concentrated is the YouTube channel. It was created in 2005, and the Russian version appeared in 2007.

Today anyone can create a blog, and it doesn’t matter whether they have a professional camera or not. It doesn't even matter if he can speak well. In some cases, a slight burr or stuttering may even become a blogger’s “trick.” But first things first.

1. The first thing you need to blog is regularity. Viewers will not subscribe to an empty channel that has only 5 posts from two years ago. The viewer always wants to see something new, and if this new thing appears constantly (at least once a week), then subscribers (like Pavlov’s dogs) will develop a conditioned reflex, and they will watch the channel constantly. Of course, this still needs to be achieved - negative reviews, dislikes and complete “ignore”, this is the normal situation for a novice blogger. The so-called quiet time, when the blogger can improve his speech and begin to feel more free in front of the camera. In addition, you don’t need to think that no one will see the video - there has never been a video on YouTube that no one watched.
2. The second rule of a video blogger is video quality. This is especially true for those who need to focus on details. It is much easier for the viewer to find a similar video than to peer at the screen trying to guess what they are trying to tell him about. And there is no need to immediately run to the stores for professional cameras; ordinary point-and-shoot cameras will do the job well, as long as the room is well lit. The same thing applies to sound, the viewer will not listen closely, so you need to speak loudly and clearly.
3. Music and screensaver are important, but not very necessary things in a blog. And if a blogger decides to please himself with a thematic intro for a video, it should not be very long and intrusive. As for the music that can be heard during breaks, it should not cause irritation.
4. And last, but not least, is the character of the blogger. As statistics show, those bloggers who have the most subscribers are those who are charismatic and joyful. The viewer, of course, will appreciate the constructiveness of the information provided, but if it is read in an emotionless and sluggish voice, then even the most patient will turn off the video. The character, charisma and energy of a person are clearly visible in the recording, and if a blogger does not naturally have amazing charisma, he can correct this by adding a few of his own comments, a couple of jokes (for those with a bad sense of humor, it is better to refrain) and some interesting facts .

Newbie mistakes

Creating blogs in video format is not that difficult, but, nevertheless, beginners make a number of standard mistakes. Among them there are 3 main ones:

• Lack of purpose. Some novice video bloggers, when asked: “Why did you create a blog?” They can only answer indistinctly: “So that it may be.” And such “cadres” number 90%. Because of this approach, many are disappointed in video blogging. To prevent this from happening, you need to set specific goals for yourself, for example: “I want to earn so much per month from my blog so that I can go to Japan in such and such a year.” It is important to set a specific goal and an exact time, then the work will go much better.
• Not regular. As already mentioned, the blog needs to be systematically filled with new videos. If you upload 1 video per month, then the blogger will reach his intended goal, in the best case, in 8 years. One or two new videos per week is quite enough.
• Lack of channel web page. It is also called an accumulative page. It is especially relevant for those who want to make money from video. Such pages can be sites with a button to subscribe to a blog or groups on social networks; they will allow you to “save” the casual viewer and make him part of the audience of regular subscribers.

In general, all blogs can be divided into types according to criteria. For example, types of blogs are ranked by publications, number of authors, purpose of creation, content format (this includes video blogs) and scale of activity. When starting your video blog, you need to decide on only two criteria: the purpose and type of video. Today the following typology of videos differs:

• Instructions or training - a blogger shows how to use something correctly, this topic is always in demand, because for the user it is much easier to watch than to read.
• Review - recently it has been gaining more and more popularity, as many users have started making purchases via the Internet; they are interested in what item will come from this or that store.
• Vlog – yes, the name is correct, vlog, aka video diary. The blogger shows his daily activities: trips, get-togethers with friends or shopping.
• Sketch – or staged scenes depicting comical situations. These are original miniature films with their own plot.
• Lat’s play is a video about how a gamer passes the next level in the game.
• The show is the last refuge for those who have not yet appeared on TV; the main thing is to present an interesting idea.
• Interviews are strange, but this type of video is also very popular, because many fans will want to see their idol in a new role. But, since there are so many idols, there is nowhere to get them, you can simply ask funny questions to passers-by, this will definitely interest passers-by.

And as already mentioned, vlogging can be profitable. How much do bloggers earn? It all depends on the number of subscribers. Thus, blogs with more than 1 million subscribers can earn from 200 thousand to 1.5 million rubles per month. And if you don’t take such large numbers, but, for example, the average number of subscribers is 5000, then a blogger can receive at least $150 per month. The policy here is simple: for 1000 views, the blogger receives 1 dollar.

YouTube channels: what they are and the most popular ones.

What a video blog is, the main types, how to create it and how much you can earn is already clear. The question remains open: what are YouTube channels? Channels are the place where a blogger uploads his videos. Viewers subscribe solely to the channel, but not as a recording itself. If a blogger has his own channel, he can monetize it, and if not, he can create it.

The TOP 10 most famous channels in the world are:

1. In first place is the channel of a blogger from Sweden called “Pew Die Pie”. To date, he has over 36.9 million subscribers. It was created in 2010 and since then 2500 videos have been uploaded to it.
2. Second place goes to a channel called “Hola Soy German”, which was created by a blogger from Chile. The number of subscribers today is 22.3 million. The channel has been operating since 2011, during which time 128 videos have appeared on it, with a total of more than 2 billion views.
3. In third place is a channel that has two owners: “America’s child” with the name “Smosh”. The number of subscribers has long crossed the 19 million mark. The channel began broadcasting at the end of 2004 and during this time more than 500 videos appeared on it.
4. The fourth place also belongs to a channel from the USA. “Rihanna VEVO” has 16.7 million subscribers, it was created in 2009, and 92 videos have been uploaded since then.
5. And again, America is ahead of the rest, in fifth place is the Katy Perry VEVO channel, which has 16.5 million viewers and 89 videos.
6. Finally, a channel from the UK has broken into the TOP 10 list. The sixth place is taken by the “One Direction VEVO” broadcast. Broadcasting began in 2010, the channel has 157 videos and 16.3 million subscribers.
7. And again, the United States does not want to give up seventh place to anyone: the Eminem VEVO channel - 56 videos and 15 million viewers.
8. In eighth place is the channel hosted by a pretty American woman, it is named after her “Jenna Marbles”. The channel has 253 videos and 15 million subscribers.
9. Ninth place also belongs to the channel run by a blogger from America – “Nigahiga”. Today the number of subscribers is 14 million, and the channel contains 239 videos.
10. And the last, tenth place belongs to the Taylor Swift VEVO channel, which has 14 million viewers and 70 videos. Exists since 2009.

As you can see, there are no Russian channels in the world TOP, so the best bloggers in Russia will be presented in a separate list.

TOP 8 best bloggers on Runet

• 1 place

In first place in terms of the number of subscribers is a blogger with the nickname Ivangay, aka Ivan Rudsky from Dnepropetrovsk.

Later he started making sketches and creating funny animations, and now he talks about himself and his life.

• 2nd place

Now Maxim Golopolosov is in second place, but he occupied the leading, first position for so many years. What can I say, age probably takes its toll. He is the host of the weekly show “Plusstopitsot” (or “+100500”), as one might guess, the name was taken from a famous Internet meme. For those who don’t know, this meme means complete agreement with someone’s opinion.

The blogger writes reviews of funny videos, and does not spare humorous comments, which he turns out to be surprisingly sincere. Perhaps this is why he has so many subscribers. Although lately other bloggers have been blogging for Maxim, who are, at least not that famous, but still famous. And Maxim himself is still busy with his other blog, in which he talks about what is happening in his life.

• 3rd place

In third place is a native of Ukraine – Yuri Yaniv and his weekly channel with the interesting name “Cream Show”. In his videos he talks about interesting things, and there is also a cat in there. Perhaps thanks to him, the blogger managed to break into the top three so quickly.

• 4th place

The fourth place remains with a blogger from Latvia. His show “This is Good” is somewhat reminiscent of the format of Maxim Golopolosov’s videos, but people apparently like this format. Videos from the YouTube channel “This is Good” were even broadcast on First Television Channel. 3 people are involved in the project: V. Golovanov, S. Davydov, S. Fedorenko.

• 8th place

And in the last eighth place is Mister Lololoshka, aka MrLololoshka or simply Roman Filchenkov, a resident of Barnaul. On his blog, he provides a complete review of computer games, although he pays more attention to Minecraft.

As practice shows, the resources needed to launch your blog are not that much more: a point-and-shoot camera, an interesting idea and a friendly smile, and everything else will follow in the process.

How do you feel about bloggers?

Nowadays, keeping a public diary is considered a very interesting and profitable profession. develop into commercial ones, and successful popular bloggers become an example for others.

One cannot but agree with the statement that the authority of blogs with a large number of subscribers is increasing every day, turning into a real tool of influence on the readership.

Blogs on the latest gadgets, tourism, cooking, cosmetics and beauty make good money on the Internet. A personal online magazine, reflecting the hobby of its owner, becomes an online continuation of the extraordinary personality who promoted the project.

Types of blogs

So, of our country - who are they? Before getting acquainted with the top projects that attract new subscribers and advertisers, it is worth talking about what online magazines exist.

A resource with interesting content

A beginner, just making his way to fame, grabs literally everything and fills his blog with content of various contents. Some diaries resemble a huge dump of irrelevant news and photos copied from other sources. However, there are talented bloggers who skillfully look for what is interesting to their subscribers. Resonant content collected on the Internet allows it to remain in the top of the most read and cited projects.

Author's magazine

The opposite of the first project is the so-called blog magazine, specializing in a specific topic. The author expresses his point of view and captivates readers with what is closest to him as the creator.

There are often cases when professional magazines with an entire army of subscribers are bought out by large publishing houses, and further development occurs through investments. Such mutually beneficial commercial deals are practiced by famous bloggers both in Russia and abroad.

The resource described above includes the personal diaries of photographers who post original photographs, or celebrity blogs, the fame of whose owners allows them to quickly gain subscribers interested in the personal and professional lives of their idols.

Blogs on women's topics

Separate projects include magazines on purely women's topics: handicrafts, cooking, fortune telling and others. Popular bloggers post useful master classes that attract an audience of millions.

This also includes channels that are gaining popularity, the owners of which are well versed in the beauty industry and have dedicated their lives to beauty. Famous bloggers who talk about new cosmetics and share detailed makeup tutorials express independent opinions about products by testing them on themselves.

We've looked at the main types of blogs that are popular and loved by loyal readers, and now we'll talk about famous creators of personal resources who turned their hobby into a business.

I. Varlamov

Perhaps the most popular blogger in Russia is the well-known Ilya Varlamov, who founded an advertising and development agency and writes fascinatingly on LiveJournal. He accompanies educational or social posts with photographs, skillfully using his blog to advertise new projects.

Varlamov loves his readers and for their sake “travels through garbage dumps, runs to rallies and writes something new every day.” On a personal blog, which is visited by about two million people every month, it is possible to buy advertising, providing it with photographs of the customer. The author also suggests organizing a photo shoot, supplementing it with selling posts about products or stores. A businessman and human rights activist, one of the top bloggers on LiveJournal, criticizes local authorities, entering into polemics with the administration of the cities he visited. He boldly covers the most resonant political events, such as the protests in Kyiv in 2014.

E. Krygina

Speaking about the most popular media personalities, we cannot ignore the person of Elena Krygina, who burst onto the fashion Olympus with her video tutorials on makeup.

In them, she talks about all the intricacies of applying makeup and transforms into famous pop culture divas.

The cosmetics lover always talks about new products and reviews popular face and body skin care products. Katya is known to everyone who is even slightly interested in the beauty industry. Successful Matoyan has been collaborating with the most famous beauty brands for a long time.

N. Belotserkovskaya

Russian bloggers rarely spoil their readers with culinary art and surprise them with their special skills. Nika, who found herself in France by the will of fate, fell in love with the cuisine of Provence and began generously sharing recipes for delicious and unusual dishes.

The author of books about the secrets of haute cuisine has become the most popular food blogger in Russia. Now Belotserkovskaya has her own online store, where you can buy unusual spices, syrups, cereals and even branded Belonika oil. Having promoted her own brand, she also opened three culinary schools abroad.

Nikkoko8

Well-known bloggers on YouTube, whose videos are watched by millions of viewers, receive decent compensation from the channel. A girl named Veronica is called the main “sniffer” of the country. She writes original reviews about selective perfume brands and the so-called mass market. Not afraid to offend anyone, a popular blogger with a huge army of subscribers speaks out quite harshly, for which many people criticize her, but Veronica is full of positivity and shares it with everyone.

D. Borisov

The leading bodybuilder in terms of views on Youtube, Denis Borisov, has long earned the reputation of a true professional. His programs were appreciated by athletes and ordinary people. In an accessible form, he explains how muscle building occurs, talks about all the nuances of training, making differences in the programs of men and women.

Borisov, whose videos have received more than 50 million views, is not for nothing considered the most popular and successful fitness blogger in Russia.

Orleans

Voronezh girl Katya Orleans quickly achieved fame. She doesn't try to be boring and doesn't mince words. Now her online magazine “about clothes” is gaining popularity in the Russian blogosphere. A non-standard approach to fashion without custom advertising sets Orleans apart from thousands of other girls. She harshly criticizes her colleagues, pointing out their obvious mistakes.

Sophie Avenue

Perhaps, the top ten bloggers are rounded off by Sofia Alekseeva, who received recognition for her amazing beauty and unique taste. Using the most unusual combinations of clothes, Sophie creates original images that her subscribers love. Each of her “looks” catches and inspires readers who admire Alekseeva’s style.

The girl who has become famous stars in television programs and participates in commercial projects that bring in good profits.

As you can see, the best bloggers in Russia, gaining popularity, receive good dividends by doing what they love. Don’t delude yourself that this is easy money, because without a creative approach it is impossible to interest a multimillion-dollar audience. Running a popular blog requires maximum effort and time, but those who are confident in themselves can be recommended to try their hand at this field.
