Tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee, better known as MKBHD, has shared his wisdom on how to successfully start a YouTube channel in 2024.

Why It Matters: The creator economy has seen exponential growth due to the democratization of content creation and distribution facilitated by the Internet and social media platforms.

This has resulted in a surge of independent content creators across various niches and industries. Last year, a report by Goldman Sachs estimated that the creator economy is projected to reach $480 billion by 2027, nearly doubling its current value of $250 billion.

Platforms like YouTube, owned by Alphabet Inc., and Instagram, owned by Meta Platforms Inc., along with Elon Musk’s X, have been instrumental in this creator economy boom.
