Online money making opportunities in Nigeria
1. Start a Youtube Channel


Starting a youtube channel is the easiest way of making money online in Nigeria and needs absolutely no startup investment.

Youtube gets an amazing 5 billion views per day which proves it’s power on the internet.  There’s no doubt how much money people are making online via this platform. In fact, one man named Felix Kjellberg, the owner of PewDiePie earned 12 million dollars back in 2015 by running a single Youtube channel.

Making money on YouTube is one of the easiest online money making opportunities that you can find anywhere. This is mainly because the platform allows for people with basic computer knowledge to leverage on their creative abilities to create content that can attract viewers and followers.

With increasing followership, your YouTube channel can then be monetized. Your earning potential really won’t be determined solely by the number of subscribers and views you have, but also by the level of engagement you generate, the niche you provide content to, and the revenue channels you explore.

Let us go through some of the most popular YouTube niches that are highly lucrative…



1. Vlogs
Vlogs or vlogging involves regularly recording and publishing videos of your everyday life. If you have a large audience on YouTube, this can be a very easy way to create YouTube content because you can broadcast yourself unedited and connect with your followers on personal grounds.

Trust me, a lot of YouTubers make money from vlogging about their families, school, travels, fitness sessions, picnics, etc. People have literally quit their jobs and took on vlogging full time., especially because it is easy to start and has a very high earning potential.

2. Tech Videos

I watch a lot of technology videos because of the different equipment that are coming out rapidly and how educative they can be, especially when the publisher is well grounded in the tech space.

These days, it is not just me. Millions of people go on YouTube to watch reviews about the latest phone or learn about a phone they plan to buy.

If you’re a Techy person, then Tech videos are definitely the niche for you. You can get some high-end devices from companies that want you to promote their equipment by showing us how it works. This would not only earn you credibility and huge followership but would also fatten your pocket.

3. Tutorials
Whether it is cooking, do-it-yourself (DIY) tasks like laundry, carpentry, doing makeup, fixing cars, teaching techy stuff like website design, etc., there are always people who want to learn how to do stuff by watching videos and you could make money off them by providing the needed content.

4. Product Reviews
I’m one of those people who like to watch a video on an item that I’m thinking about purchasing to see how it worked for someone else. Being a Product Reviewer can get you free items from companies who need their products put out there for promotional purposes and some good cash to follow it.

5. Comedy
All work and no fun makes Jack a dull boy, goes the old saying. Nobody likes to be a Jack and this is why many people like to engage in some fun activity like watching comedy videos on YouTube.

If you are funny, know how to prepare comedy skits, or can generally do anything to make people relax and laugh, then publishing comedy videos might be your gateway to YouTube financial freedom.

Here in Nigeria, you can attest to the fact that comedians are living large off the high audience that they get from their funny videos, especially because they have monetized their channels. You might be the next if you take YouTube seriously.

So you see…there are lots of niches that you can venture into when it comes to making money off YouTube. The list is actually endless.
