Is YouTube Still a Good Career Option in 2019?

This is one of the many questions that comes to my mind when I think about the future of my YouTube Channel, Fixing Tiny Tedious Things!

I started this channel way back and kept it as an option to fall back to if for any reason there’s no work. By the grace of God, things worked really well for me and I kind of forgot about this channel.

Things changed, suddenly, there was a big revolution in India, in telecom industry with inception of JIO telecom. The internet data became so cheap that everybody could afford it, this resulted in steep increase in the growth of internet users in India.

Is YouTube still a career for new creators?

Nearly 30% of the population got hold of smartphones, more people started using YouTube, many of the YouTubers who were cruising in parallel space with me suddenly rose to fame. I remained busy in my other stuff, couldn’t leverage the opportunity!

When I realized the whole thing, everything had kind of gone out of my reach. So, the point is, is there still a chance for my channel to do well?

I have always been a believer of this saying,

Survival of the fittest!

Therefore, I still have a lot of hope left for my channel.

Here’s why I am confident about YouTube as Career

Following are some of the reasons why I am confident about doing well:
