Monetizing Fandom On YouTube w/ AFTV's Robbie Lyle


Listen Later

Tom speaks to one of his YouTube Idols, Robbie Lyle from the AFTV (formerly known as Arsenal Fan TV) YouTube channel. The channel has grown to well over a million subscribers in the football (soccer) niche without ever having the rights to show a single goal. Instead, the channel has been grown by utilising news, updates, speculation but most importantly by giving fans a voice.

In the episode we cover;

  • How the channel first got started
  • How AFTV has spawned a whole new genre of fan channels on YouTube
  • How and when to take the leap to become a full-time YouTube creator
  • How the club officially (and unofficially) react to the channel
  • Hoe the team and business is run and how they manage to produce so much content and publish it so quickly after the final whistle
