Autochannel
A niche with amazing monetization. You can advertise advertise both the cars themselves and auto centers, car products and more. This niche is valuable because many people look at car reviews when deciding which car to buy. This means that this pre-warmed up audience is a tasty morsel for advertisers.
1. Car reviews - on this topic such YouTube stars as AcademeG and the Ildar AUTO- SELECTION project "rose" .
2. Autonews - Among the niche leaders is Auto News , which looks like a news and information product. The same information can be brought up in the first person by giving longer comments.
3. Auto repair - a project from Nizhny Novgorod Body workshop or Garage Auto electrician demonstrates how YouTube can promote your business.
4. Garage videos - if you like to tinker with your car in the garage - shoot about it. Useful tips on how to do something with your own hands are always in trend.
Hunting Fishing
It will always remain a hot topic in Russia and abroad. A simple example: a video about winter fishing for pike is one year old and has 8 million views. The monetization opportunities are excellent: fishing rods, spinning rods, and other equipment for fishing and hots.
5. River and lake fishing - fishing has its own specifics. If you are fond of a particular one, make a channel about her.
6. Sea fishing - if it is available to you, make such a channel. It will turn out to be very entertaining.
7. Hunting for an animal - such channels collect a lot of views not only among hunters, but also among those who are interested in watching the process.
8. Hunting weapon reviews are an easily monetized niche. On the channel, you can also talk about how to obtain licenses and go through other bureaucratic procedures.
Instrument search
Search for antiquity using devices. An incredibly exciting niche that can generate income if you consider monetization. In the examples below, the authors collaborate with travel shops, manufacturers of special equipment, clothing and equipment for tourism.
9. Searching with a metal detector is a very interesting direction that is gaining momentum. I myself watch with interest how people discover new finds.
10. Visiting dead cities and villages is not only interesting, but also very informative.
11. Visiting abandoned factories and plants is an exciting and intriguing idea.
Construction and renovation
Niche with ample opportunities for earning money. You can offer the audience everything they need for construction and renovation. Even if you narrow the channel's theme to finishing balconies or plumbing, you still won't have a problem finding an advertiser.
12. Summer cottage construction - here you can talk about how to build a summer cottage from scratch yourself or by attracting contractors.
13. Decorating apartments (or separately, for example, bathrooms) is a great opportunity to promote your business. This is what Alexey Zemskov did , creating a powerful personal brand.
14. Designer renovation - tell us how to make a designer renovation: reveal the basic rules and professional life hacks. The Designer Diary literally took off on this topic.
15. We build with our own hands - in our country, people build and repair a lot on their own. Such information will always be in demand.
16. Cheap renovations - many have already started making videos about budget renovations. I think there is room for a whole channel.
Gadgets and PC
Perhaps the most coveted niche for those who want to make money on their channel. A kind of "Store on the couch" in the YouTube format. What you observe is what you sell. Why not a holiday?
However, there are already a lot of such channels, and you will need to choose the right direction in order not to be in the last place in the crowd of such channels. I will talk about this a little later. For now, here are a couple of examples of how you can narrow down your topic:
17. Reviews of gadgets from Ali-express - tell us about worthy analogs of devices that can be ordered on Ali.
18. Unusual gadgets for all occasions - All kinds of devices and household appliances can not be found on the Internet. There is enough information for a whole channel.
19. Gadgets from the 90s and 2000s are a great retro theme. There is room for reviews and nostalgia. True, the issue is with monetization.
20. Computer hardware - yes, laptops and tablets are taking over the world, but no one canceled personal computers.
Sport
This is a large niche that includes a huge variety of areas with room for monetization: the sale of sports video courses, sports food, clothing and equipment. A bit tricky if you choose the sports review area.
21. Sports reviews and highlights of matches (watch out, there are copyright issues on reproduction),
22. News and insider information about your favorite sports destination
With your own hands
Channels about traditional male crafts are now in the top. They are interesting not only for those who are engaged in such a thing, but also for those who enjoy watching the process. Such a channel can be a great advertisement for your small business. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to voice the video. The main thing is to show the process. Here are a couple of examples.
23. Do-it-yourself home repair - if you have golden hands, and you can fix the washing machine, disassemble and assemble the dishwasher so that there are no unnecessary parts left, an idea for you.
24. Furniture making - at the CHEST'ER channel , where the author shows how to make designer novelties with his own hands, almost half a million subscribers!
25 . Architecture - Here is an interesting example, where Adolf Yuriev teaches hand-made woodcarving .
26. Laying of stoves - in a country where many have summer cottages, such a channel will find its viewers.
27. Blacksmithing - these canals attract thousands of viewers with their picturesqueness. People like to watch the process, therefore, the video does not need to be dubbed.
Gaming
The top YouTubers today are those who talk about computer games: PewDiePie (+58 million subscribers), Markiplier (+18 million subscribers), VanossGaming (+21 million subscribers). Interest in such channels will only grow.
28. Channel about a single game (for example, about Minecraft, Roblox, Browel Stars for children and teenagers and about genre games for an adult audience)
29. Streaming - such channels earn on donations, affiliate programs with streaming platforms, advertising and subscriptions
30. Let-plays (the same streaming, only with editing) is also suitable for those who know how to comment on the events of the game well.
Ideas for girls
Below are selected topics for a YouTube channel aimed at a female audience.
Fashion and beauty
31. Fashion about fashion will always be in trend. This is a niche with a good scope for monetization: here you can find advertising for brands, online clothing stores, as well as affiliate links.
32. A beauty blog is an inexhaustible niche in which you can teach make-up and review industry innovations.
33. Haircuts, Hairstyles and Hair Grooming - You don't have to be a professional hairdresser to blog. In this niche popular tutorials - Video on how to braid French braid or collect hair in an elegant bunch.
34. Shopping : the choice of clothes, shoes, cosmetics, and everything that a girl needs.
Home Improvement
35. Housing design is a hot topic. In the wake of interest in how one's own home looks like, projects such as the Designer Diary have risen . Other bloggers such as Anna Belaruskaya are presenting more educational content.
36. Rumtury - in her project Olga Kachanova, the project "How others live" the author visits the houses and apartments of other people. On these channels, viewers can get ideas on how to equip their homes. I want to show a couple of examples of such channels
Mom's blog
Great blog idea with a wide range of monetization options. Here's my list of 105 mommy blog ideas.
Now I want to dwell on this moment.
Not long ago, Google introduced a new health and child information policy. Therefore, I do not advise you to give any medical advice if you are not a doctor.
37. Family vlog - at one time such videos were watched as serials. By the way, here I have analyzed 17 video ideas for your family .
38. Sketches about motherhood and family life - such as in Mama Park .
39. Educational parent channel - a place where moms and dads can find answers to their questions.
Health
The niche is extremely popular: people will always lose weight and want to look attractive - a fact. Here are a few directions.
40. Is bodybuilding , fitness or yoga your forte? Then shoot about this or another sports direction.
41. Homemade cosmetics - scrubs, masks, homemade soaps and other natural beauty products can be a great topic for your own channel.
Stories
The good thing about this idea is that you don't have to film yourself. It is enough to create a captivating story. YouTube rules allow you to use short segments of other videos, therefore, there should be no problems with the video sequence.
42. The life of the stars is like BigSem , telling the stories of our idols.
Gardening
In our country, dacha gardening and horticulture are in people's blood, therefore, there will always be demand in the video about planting vegetables and burying apple trees. Keep in mind, however, that the niche is seasonal: there will be significantly fewer views in winter.
43. Country gardening - there should be no problems with advertisers in this niche: you can sell any garden equipment.
44. Almost everyone has houseplants and balcony gardening , but you will have to think about monetization. Here is an example of a successful millionaire channel Flowers in the House. Houseplants.
DIY (do it yourself)
A great niche for those who are passionate about needlework. Meanwhile, such a niche is difficult to monetize. Typically, craftswomen sell their own online courses. In addition, you should not expect a million audience. However, those who decide to create such a channel will find my article on how to shoot a video of a needle worker useful .
Mostly lessons are watched here. Most views are from the most basic tutorials. But if you shoot the 101st video on how to dial loops, it will be problematic to move forward, because YouTube already has videos like this with tens of thousands of views. Therefore, the algorithm will suggest these videos to viewers, not yours. Entering this niche, it is better to film on a topic that others have not yet spoken about.
45. Knitting or sewing - a video on how to knit or sew a beautiful thing in the shortest possible time without serious skills.
46. DIY designer things for home - on this channel you can talk about how to independently make interior items inexpensively and from available materials.
Ideas about equipment and goods
We have already touched on the topics of gadgets above, As I already wrote, an excellent "store" niche, but to stand out, you will have to come up with something original, otherwise you risk being the one hundred and first Wyls.
47. Reviews of devices for home, kitchen and garden unpacking useful acquisitions for the household.
48. Top products, where you can provide information about the most convenient meat grinders, durable kitchen machines, etc.
49. How to choose the right technique If you know what you need to pay attention to when choosing this or that device, then you can safely build a whole channel on this.
About travel
An excellent “evergreen” niche. Analysis of the trend over the past 5 years shows that even during the crisis, people did not stop looking at those who were traveling.
50. Traveler's vlog - yes, there are already a lot of them and you need to show your imagination to hook the viewer. Here are the authors who managed to do it.
- WANT TO HOME - a project about places you never want to visit
- TRAVELED - a project in which the author travels to the most dangerous countries on the planet
- Under its own power - Acne and Lisa talk about independent travel to different parts of the world, which are available to everyone.
51. Traveling on Google Maps - it turns out that in order to conduct a travel channel, it is not necessary to come off your chair. You can comment on cities and countries virtually like the project “ By Cities ” does .
For children's channels
There is a separate platform for children's content - Youtube Kids, but many parents create channels for children on regular "adult" YouTube. In this separate article, I have separately analyzed 25 ideas for children's channels and more than 50 themes for children's videos . Here are just a few of them.
52 . Vlog of the child - children love to look at children, and not just watch, but revise many times. That is why vlogs of popular kids are gaining so many views.
53. Scientific experiments and experiments - on such a channel you can do safe experiments with magnets, water or food dyes.
54. Learning channel - For example, in mathematics or Russian, where a student gives explanations to a student.

Cooking Channel Ideas
The ideas for your youtube culinary channel are endless: you can narrow the topic by choosing any direction: meat dishes, pastry channel. Below are some promising ideas.
60. Recipes according to GOSTs of the USSR - many are nostalgic for food "like in kindergarten", so videos about retro food can be a success.
61. National dishes - personally, I really look forward to the appearance of such a channel, which will remove the question "what to cook for dinner?"
62. Reviews boyud , deliveries and institutions - video reviews meal deliveries still gain views, they added, and a new direction: reviews of restaurants, cafes, outdoor eateries and even school cafeterias.
63. Grocery shopping and family menu planning. The author of the DIARY JEWEL channel knows how to live on 1000 USD a month. If you know how to plan a healthy diet for your family and still save money, share the secrets.
64. Recipes for the culinary direction. If you are a vegetarian, avid carnivore and dieter, create a channel for those who share your culinary habits.
Creative hobbies
A vlog about your favorite business will bring great pleasure to its author, however, it may not be easy to monetize it. Not every hobby involves selling a product. To help the creators - built-in advertising and affiliate programs.
65. Dance channel , where you can learn the movements of popular directions.
66. Book Reviews - Make money through book reviews and affiliate programs.
67. Drawing - here you can imagine both lessons and speedpaints, which are very popular. By the way, there is an article on my blog in which I share tips with art bloggers and tell in detail how to shoot the drawing process .
68. Playing a musical instrument - monetization - by advertising your information product or selling private lessons.
69. Singing - here you can learn vocals, record your own covers of your favorite songs or perform your own works.
70. Poetry is a direction that can win the hearts of your subscribers. Anna Egoyan is a great example of this .
71. Tricks and magic tricks - a niche that has brought millions of subscribers. The proof of this is the Magic Five project , which stepped beyond the world of magic and illusion.
72. Writer's channel, where you can tell how to write a book, how to publish it and other subtleties of writing.
What topics shouldn't you choose?
So, we talked about what can and should be filmed on the YouTube channel. Now a few words about the topics that should be avoided.
Overheated. In YouTube, there are directions on which many people have already expressed their opinion. For example, cooking. If you make a million-first video on how to make borscht, it will be on the outskirts of the universe, because there are already stars and leaders here. If you do decide to choose just such a direction, then you will need to do something special. In this regard, below I have provided a list of the most popular topics on YouTube.
Not monetized. If you are planning to make money on your channel, then monetization is something that you should think about long before you install a camera. Simply put, ask yourself: What product will viewers want to buy from me and what kind of ads will they want to see?
There are several ways to generate income from the channel: YouTube advertising, advertising of partners in a video, affiliate links and selling an information product, for example, a course. There are niches that are easy to monetize - gadget reviews, and there are those that are very difficult. For example, a poetry channel.
Too wide or too narrow. This parameter is important to find exactly your viewer. "All recipes in a row" seems to be a very broad topic. If you create a channel called "Quick Recipes for a Bachelor", you will advance among this audience much faster. At the same time, the topic should not be too specific. you will run out too quickly, and the audience will decrease significantly.
What are the most popular topics on YouTube?
Now it is clear that the most popular topic on YouTube today is not the best choice for a beginner. Such topics are overheated, too much has been filmed about them.
No, this is not a blacklist of ideas, however, here you should find a specific sub-topic to get to the top.
73. Personal vlog
74. Unboxing and Reviews
75. Streaming
76. Live Hacks
77. Tops
78. Compilations
79. Pranks and pranks
Growing niches
So which channel is it better and more profitable to create on YouTube? The answer is with growing popularity. These topics are interesting, but not many people have filmed their videos on them. Therefore, you will not find yourself "on the periphery."
Popular science channels
Sciencepop is a fast-growing industry, but it can have monetization problems.
80. About space. Here are some good examples: About space simply or Space Room
81. About language and linguistics - it's amazing, but even a channel about linguistics, such as Mikitko's son Alekseev, is capable of gaining hundreds of thousands of views.
82. About wildlife - for example, like naturalists in the project Everything like animals
Educational channels
Starting in 2020, this niche promises not only subscribers, but also significant profits, since it can be monetized not only by advertising, but also by an author's video course. Also, you should take into account the seasonality: a decline in interest in the summer, but a strong growth in the spring, before exams.
83. Channel on a school subject, be it mathematics, physics, chemistry, which will not only clarify the most difficult questions of the subject, but also help prepare for the exam, OGE or other state exam.
84. Educational channel for adults, for example, in English.
85. For younger students, where school subjects are explained in an easy and playful way.
86. Education for parents, where it would be possible to talk about the nuances of the school curriculum, how to help a child to master the subjects, about family learning and other issues that connect the parent and the school.
Psychology and career guidance
Such requests as “psychologist”, “depression”, “psychosomatics” are also growing, which speaks of the promising niche. However, remember that Google has already implemented a strict policy on health information sites. So, next in line is YouTube. In order not to get banned, do such a channel if you yourself are a certified specialist in this area or work only with such specialists.
87. Family psychology , covering the issues of relationships in the family.
88. Child and adolescent psychology , where parents could find questions about relationships with children.
89. Career guidance - where you can tell how to find your calling, how to choose a dream job, how to realize yourself.
90. About professions like the project 10 stupid questions are now in the top. TUT.BY channel videos about people with unusual professions also gain hundreds of thousands of views.
Other growing niches
91. About green life: how to form sustainable habits, consume more consciously and how to live life, causing minimal damage to the environment.
92. Retrogaming and podcasts about games. It would seem that there is nothing to add to the field of games. However, these are two areas that are gaining popularity. Separately, I will say about podcasts and game analysis. Long discussion format is trending.
93. Dog training is a trend that is gaining momentum. It can be either a professional's channel ( Antoine Najaryan - 722 thousand subscribers) or an amateur who shares his personal experience.
94. Social experimentation is an ultra-popular trend on English-speaking YouTube. The hero drops 170,000 rubles. Will passers-by return the money or not? Interesting example: vJOBivay .
95. Teaching photography and videography - in particular, how to take photos and video masterpieces using a mobile phone.
96. 360-degree video is gaining views with the development of technology. Therefore, such a channel will find its viewers in the near future.
97. City tours - if you love your city, tell about it as if you were taking tourists through it. This is a new and fresh direction that viewers love
98. Film reviews - a niche for film enthusiasts such as TerlKabot channel .
98. Author's comedy show Examples such as "Lapenko" or " In short ".
99. Animated stories such as X2DED will be popular with teenagers.
100. About my profession. Whoever you are, an accountant, a coach, a teacher, such a channel will make you a good advertisement.
How to evaluate an idea for popularity?
If you care if you get watched or not, be sure to assess the popularity of your niche before you start filming. Here are some easy ways to do it.
With TubeBuddy
TubeBuddy is a Chrome extension that allows you to quickly and efficiently assess the popularity of an idea and the competitiveness of a niche.
The app evaluates your idea according to several parameters:
- Number of search queries,
- Competition (high or low)
- Optimization quality (if other users haven't bothered to optimize, this is your chance to break into the top).
I already wrote in detail about how to use this tool in the article about ideas for videos on YouTube. By the way, there you will also find an example of such an analysis and how to interpret it.
Using Google Trends
Google Trends is a tool that will show not the absolute number of impressions (like Wordstat) but the trend: constant, seasonal, gaining popularity or "dead". Here you can make a selection not only by country, but also by resource. So, for example, you can find out what kind of trent this request has in YouTube.
Conclusion
Now you know not only how to test an idea for popularity, but also armed with one hundred ideas for the YouTube channel. If you don't like anything, "go over" the list again. The listed ideas will surely push you to the very one.
