This thesis aims to research the platform YouTube and whether “being a YouTuber” qualifies as a profession or not and what leads to this. The author combines existing scientific data and information provided by YouTubers doing this as a job and uses the compilation method. The author merges that material and uses it to create a bachelor thesis that covers both the theoretical and practical approach. The aim was to find out if there is a success recipe that can be followed that leads to views and clicks which are essential for the profession as a YouTuber. To do this, the author created two channels to see how the factors mentioned in this thesis are applied and if the approach leads to success. The findings of this thesis showed, that although the profession of a YouTuber can be classified as a job, it needs to be viewed differently from commonly known and in society accepted careers. Becoming a YouTuber and making money from this business, therefore, cannot be guaranteed.
