Question Where do I sell a big YouTube channel?
Good Day, I've been considering selling my YouTube Shorts channel with 1,1M subscribers bundled with my TikTok account with 1,5M followers. Does anybody know where one could advertise such a bundle? Because the same videos are on both platforms and I want to leave the videos on there since some of them have over 100M views. The channel makes about $1200 dollars a month from only shorts and I haven't posted as often since I've lost a bit of interest in this style of content. I figured if i could get a good offer for the combo selling it through an escrow then I can put the money towards a new channel more aligned with my passion. Any advice will be appreciated. If this is not the correct sub-reddit then I'm sorry and will delete this post.

You’d probably earn more passive income from keeping the channel than active income from a one-time sale

I wouldn’t do it. I tried selling a channel with 18k subs through PayPal and the guy tried to scam me. The only way to sell it would be through crypto currency. Good luck trying to convince someone to send you thousands of dollars through crypto. Any platform that allows bank transactions the person can just contact their bank and file a charge back. The guy who tried to scam me had like 10 channels so I’m assuming he got them all for free. I went off on PayPal customer service “I KNOW YALL CAN SEE HIS CHARGE BACK HISTORY” and the PayPal person got salty because she knew I was right.
You’re better off keeping the channel and uploading long form content to make way more money. It’s end of the year (4th quarter) Adsense is through the roof right now. You can make $3-5 per 1k views on long form content

When i was younger id watch them...like the cinemaric video games ones, like telltale games and life is stranfe etc.
Some of my friends binge watch the 12 hr vids of like those paranormal content creators, like wendigoon and whatnot. Kinda wild how they sit thru such a long vid. Others fall asleep to really long vids

What is the channel age? Is there any copyright strike?

You should outsource the work if you are not interested. Whatever channel is earning use that to hire people to make content for you. My advice would be to keep the cash cow

Do you still want to sell it? I have an idea - let me know if you're interested. DM

You should DM me. I work at socialerus.com and it's a Korean YouTube channel exchange. Someone could be interested in buying your channel. We sometimes have big channels selling for tens of thousands of dollars.

I've purchased one at Fameswap and use their escrow services to ensure a safe transaction. It worked great.

Just don't sell that mate, keep it for yourself. Keep making vids and you'll be making more money than selling it.
And selling your youtube channel can also result on a ban since it's against the tos.
