On the evening of August 21 (Vietnam time), Ronaldo officially opened his own YouTube channel and quickly swept a series of records on the largest video social network today.

Within the first 90 minutes, the YouTube channel “UR – Cristiano” surpassed 1 million subscribers, becoming the fastest new YouTube channel to reach this milestone. After 4 hours, the channel had more than 5 million subscribers. And after about 11 hours, the channel reached more than 10 million subscribers and officially achieved the “Diamond” button.

Although it is still unknown exactly how much money Ronaldo earns from this YouTube platform, there is information showing the incredible amount of money the superstar earns.

According to Thinkific, a YouTube creator can earn between $2 and $12 per 1,000 views, which equates to about $0.002 to $0.012 per view.

For every 1 million views, people on YouTube can earn between $1,200 and $6,000. There have been more than 40 million views on the YouTube channel “UR – Cristiano”, which means the amount of money Ronaldo pocketed after half a day on social media is huge.

Advertisers pay a fixed price to YouTube, with creators pocketing 45% and the platform itself earning the remaining 55%. All of Ronaldo’s videos have had over 1 million views, meaning Ronaldo will make a significant amount of money from advertising alone.

With videos on the channel having a total of more than 40 million views, this means Ronaldo has earned up to 480,000 USD (about 12 billion VND) through advertising on YouTube after only 1 day of opening the channel.

With its rapid growth rate, Ronaldo’s YouTube channel is likely to dethrone MrBeast as the number one YouTuber with 311 million followers in the near future.
