At 101K median views, MakeupByAlli runs above the typical beauty channel we track (18K). It is outperforming its niche.

What is MakeupByAlli's net worth and estimated earnings?

Nobody outside the channel sees the real figure, and ad revenue is only part of it - sponsorships and merch often dwarf it. But from public view counts, MakeupByAlli pulls roughly 130K long-form views a month from recent uploads, which at a typical $1-4 RPM works out to an estimated $130-$521 a month in ad revenue (about $1,563-$6,254 a year). Treat it as a ballpark, not a payslip - real creator income varies wildly, and this ignores the back catalogue.

What should a channel like MakeupByAlli make next?

Copy what already works here, not generic advice: lean on the 5-10 min format, ship on Tue, and build titles around its proven words (tutorial, routine). The median is the bar - the goal of every upload is to clear 101K views.
