A YouTube channel is not a freely transferable asset. The buyer is really paying for the audience, the back catalogue, and access to the account, usually structured as an asset sale with a handover period, not a simple ownership transfer.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is this a professional valuation?

No. It is a rule-of-thumb estimate from monthly profit and a niche multiple. A real sale involves diligence a calculator cannot do.

Do I need an account?

No.

What if the channel has no monthly profit?

Then a multiple-of-profit valuation does not hold. A buyer may still pay for the audience and catalogue, but that price is a negotiation, not arithmetic.
