Cristiano Ronaldo’s YouTube Channel Shatters Records, Earns Millions
Portuguese football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has once again broken boundaries on social media, this time with his new YouTube channel, ‘UR – Cristiano.’ Launched just one day ago, the channel has already amassed over 30 million subscribers and generated over 100 million views.
Ronaldo’s YouTube success is a testament to his immense popularity and influence. Despite his videos being mostly around one minute long, they have garnered millions of views, with three videos already surpassing 20 million views each.
According to industry estimates, YouTube channels can earn around USD 6 per 1,000 views, translating to a potential revenue of USD 1,200 to USD 6,000 per million views. With over 100 million views already, Ronaldo could have potentially earned well over a few hundred million USD from his YouTube venture.
In addition to ad revenue, Ronaldo’s YouTube channel also provides a platform for him to connect with his fans on a more personal level. His videos feature a variety of content, including family moments, challenges, and behind-the-scenes glimpses of his life.
On the field, Ronaldo continues to perform at a high level. He scored 44 goals for Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr in the 2023-24 season and has started the 2024-25 season with three goals in three games.
Ronaldo’s YouTube success is a testament to his enduring popularity and his ability to adapt to the ever-changing social media landscape. As he continues to grow his channel, he is likely to further extend his reach and influence, both on and off the field.
