Youtube is the perfect platform to express creativity. From gaming, comedy, ASMR, to beauty, there is nothing that can’t be done on Youtube. The platform has changed the life of many content creators. For instance, MirandaSings (also known as Colleen Ballinger) had the opportunity to have her own Netflix TV show in 2016. Many make-up Youtubers were able to create their own makeup brand or collection, like Nikita Dragun, or Huda Kattan. But which categories are the most successful?
