Tumblr CEO David Karp and OpenSlate Studios, have produced this infographic based on data compiled on Youtube’s top 1000 channels.
The infographic details that music and gaming dominate the ranks of popular channels on YouTube, accounting collectively for 45% of the 1,000 most-viewed. Comedy (14%), entertainment (13%), and How-to & Style (7%) round out the top five categories.
Interestingly, if you can crack into the top 1000 you’d be expecting to earn $23,000 of ad-revenue off of your Youtube channel.
