I spent the last 5 months checking like 100+ faceless Youtube channels. I looked at their strategy, views, rough earnings, just trying to understand what’s actually working right now.
What I noticed is some niches clearly do better than others when it comes to earnings and growth.
From what I saw, these 3 niches were making around $5k/month:
- Finance related content makes around $15-25 per 1k views
- Tech comparison videos are around $12-20 per 1k
- True crime stories usually $10-15 per 1k
On the other side, some niches feel super saturated now, like:
meditation music
motivational quotes
most gaming content
Another thing I noticed… channels that grow faster post at least 3 videos a week. The ones doing well were uploading consistently, and most of their videos were like min 12 minutes long.
Thumbnails matter a lot too. Even on faceless channels, CTR was better when the thumbnail had some kind of human face or emotion on it.
If anyone here is running a faceless channel or has experience with these niches, would love to hear your thoughts or if you’ve seen similar stuff.
