I think both are hard maybe Youtube is faster to see results

They compliment each other very well, so ideally we should do both like many brands are already doing.
 
Easier to make money on, blogging. Blogging has no real start up capital needed. Quality YouTube channels take investment.

I’d say YouTube videos are more favorable in terms of longevity.
 
I've been on youtube since last year and blogged seriously since January 2022. For me blogging has been the way to go and I have maybe earned 10x from what I earned on youtube in total

Both are challenging, but Blog is more difficult. Its earnings are less than youtube.
 
combine both, they synergize very well. Funnel the viewers from YT to your blog where you got more ads/affiliate offers or your own product.
 
blogging has slow growth but worth it, and on the other hand youtube has audience and make money faster

I have been doing Youtube since 2015 and have earned awesome money from it in record time. As for this poll, I have voted for Youtube because it is relatively easy to do and results are fast.

Running a youtube channel can have no cost at all if you wish to. Top Youtube celebrities like Bhuvan Bam record their videos with bare mobile and gain millions of views. Some even present informative PPT presentation videos and earn thousands of dollars. Here content is important than the infrastructure.

Generating sustainable revenue from Blogging takes time. A youtube channel can start earning in 2 months but it is extremely difficult for a website or a blog to achieve the same.

However I will vote for blog if I have to choose a long running sustainable business. Sometimes Youtube money is unpredictable. It can dry out if Youtube decides to dump you.

I'd like to say it's 50/50 then. Because that can happen happen with Adsense, which is the ad format of Youtube anyway.

Youtube does have weird protocol in determining whether or not a channel becomes demonetized.
 
You used to be able to earn from youtube but now it's not that easy.

Blog pays better, passive and evergreen. Youtube is faster but needs manual work if the niches aren’t evergreen

21 on my main site, but I do have a few others sites as well. The main difference in the earnings between blog and youtube is that on youtube I get more tier 2 and tier 3 viewers, but on my blog I have more tier 1 visitors..

I am doing ok with YouTube. My RPM is very decent as vieweres from us uk aus Netherlands. But i need to makr daily videos. So that's not really passive.

I want something passive so started a blog. Have 7 posts but i am struggling as people already cover everything pretty well in blogging. Its info content on a Engineering niche

I just turned on some ads to some of my "best" videos to get more traction. $1 per day per video on 3 videos.

You should do some keyword research and find some low competition long-tailored keywords and write content based on that. But I'm not an expert in the blogging field. I just started out a few months ago.

It is easier to make money on YouTube if you know how to find sources for content.

Yes. You are right too.

Even I had thought to give it 50-50, but in my personal experience I have found my Google Adsense revenue bit stable (even though it was way too less than Youtube revenue.) So I voted for stability!

My audience in Youtube is mostly from India and Asia. In last few years numerous competitors have cropped up so the views are divided and so is the revenue. But websites Adsense revenue has been stable all throughout these years.

Its all about niche.
 
Do both, make a blog and also Youtube video from which you can send traffic to that.
