The Most Popular YouTubers of 2022
YouTube is the second most popular and most visited website after Google. YouTube has become a home to more than 2B+ active monthly users globally. It has become a way to live for many people. Since one can easily watch videos on YouTube millennials prefer to use YouTube to consume online video content.
Were you also wondering who rules over the global digital platform that is YouTube?
We’ve had a look and found the Top 10 YouTubers who are acing the social network with their viral videos, according to the number of subscribers to their channels. We’ve excluded all celebrities, singers, or other public figures who did not achieve fame via the platform itself from this YouTube ranking. For example, the top worldwide channel T-series (with now over 218M subscribers) is an Indian film production and distribution company. We didn’t define this company as a ‘YouTuber’ and therefore have not included it in our selection.
