Top Youtubers of Pakistan

A lot of times whenever I was bitten by a motivational bug, I always announced to my group of friends that I have decided to adopt YouTube as a career role. My idea was always greeted with Ifs and Buts and I would plop down back on my seat with a hurtful expression on my face.

This was when PTA was busy playing the fun game of blocking and unblocking Youtube in our country. Regardless if it was active or not, the online streaming giant managed to gain a large audience across Pakistan. Our youth discovered a new platform to earn money and grow creatively. Many people like me thought it was easy to make money on Youtube. The misconception that was taken as a fact by a lot of people was that one just needs to make some gibberish content and can earn millions in a month without a single hassle.

But the reality is way different than what was perceived. It is not easy to make money on Youtube. Yes, you can earn millions but only if your content is unique and original.

Often we see questions such as” is technology leading us towards destruction?” under trending topics on social media. The reality is that technology is bringing positive change to our world. You might be wondering how.

The answer is quite simple, with E-commerce stores discouraging people from using their cars, which has resulted in less release of carbon into the air and protection of our natural resources such as water supplies and forests by using remote sensing and geographical information system, the technology has helped farmers and foresters to manage and monitor their niches in a better way.

How is Youtube Harmful?

Social Media platforms such as Youtube are still recognized as a threat even though the platform has managed to create social awareness on subjects that people today are too busy to even talk about.

Issues such as Suicide, Mental Health, Autism, and so on are addressed on many YouTube channel that holds more than a million subscribers. However, when it comes to parents, they are really concerned about how YouTube is playing a negative impact on their child’s life.

Although the social media app has parental control settings still it isn’t enough to keep children away from all the adult content available online.

How to develop a successful YouTube channel?

Keeping the best name for a YouTube channel is not enough to gain subscribers or generate income. With the passing of time, the role of YouTube in our daily life is quite dominant.

From cooking channels to technical guides to interesting life hacks, the online streaming giant is an ideal place to find solutions for our day-to-day life problems.

 

Currently, the channel with the highest number of subscribers worldwide is none other than Bangtan Tv, the youtube channel that is home to all of the mind-relaxing music created by BTS. However, PewDiePie is labeled as the no 1 YouTuber in the world.

Saad ur Rehman aka Ducky bhai

Everyone who browses Youtube is familiar with the name “Ducky Bhai”. Saad ur Rehman is a next-door guy who gained fame overnight when in 2018 his channel came under the limelight over a quarrel he had with one of the famous YouTubers Sham Idrees.

The quarrel gained all the attention on the streaming platform as they were throwing around threats and accusations at each other. The audience enjoyed the real-life drama and soon there were sides being picked.

Later, many suggested that it was preplanned with the intention of gaining more views and followers. Some also insinuated that both the rivals are actually old friends.
