Want to live your life working a job where there are no rules? Okay, not no rules, but very few rules, ones that still allow you to live life on your terms? Good – then you’re in the right place. To succeed in affiliate marketing in YouTube, you need to be someone that’s willing to put in the work so that you can profit and create your own life.
And what that looks like is different for everyone. That’s why you see so much collaboration, or at least, inspiration, in the affiliate marketing game. We’re not looking to others with shift eyes because they’re our competition – we’re looking to them for tips and tricks we haven’t figured out yet.
If you’re still seeing other affiliate marketers as threats, you’re not doing this right. Want to see the value in learning and valuing others in this space?
Make sure you’re following the affiliate marketing YouTube channels below.

Affiliate Marketing YouTube Channels
The people in this guide did not pay to be on this list. They are people I look to for inspiration and support. They create content that I value enough to share with you. These words are my personal opinion – not a paid or affiliate partnership.
Freedom Influencer
When you’re an affiliate marketer, at least a successful one, you can’t be afraid to toot your own horn a little bit. That’s why I put my own YouTube channel on this list. I work hard to create content that’s going to take you from “thinking about it” to a successful affiliate marketer yourself.
After I started creating my own passive income from home, I learned that I was so passionate about it, I wanted to share my skills with other people. On my channel, you’ll find everything from beginners’ guides to fun videos that you can watch when you’re feeling discouraged or stuck.
Some of my most popular videos include:
- 10 Websites to Make $100/Day in 2018
- Make $100 Per Day From Google With This One Simple Trick
- How to Livestream on Facebook
- 8 Work at Home Jobs with No Start-Up Fees
- 6 Apps that Pay Cash
- and more!
There are over 100 videos, and I put out a new one as often as I can. You’ll find everything from book summaries, to business ideas, to self-improvement content (how to face the fear of failure) and have close to 400,000 subscribers.
That’s 400,000 people who take time out of their days to hear what I have to say. I’m grateful for them and hope you’ll follow me on YouTube over at Freedom Influencer.
Affiliate Summit
Performance marketing is just another way to say affiliate marketing, though it includes some more marketing niches than just that. And that’s what Affiliate Summit is about. It’s the most significant performance marketing conference in the world!
The summit is so big that they have to have four different events every year. There’s the Affiliate Summit East event, which happens in New York City, The European Event that’s in Amsterdam this year.
If you’re on the other side of the globe, the Affiliate Summit Asia Pacific event is in Singapore, while AS West is in Las Vegas. They create an insane amount of content – because they produce that content live at their events.
But we can’t always get to those live events, even if there are four of them. That’s where their YouTube channel comes in! They post past content, workshops, and interviews on their channel from the last ten plus years on their playlists.
Now, not everything from every year is available, but it’s worth going back through the videos and seeing how affiliate marketing has changed. They have close to a million subscribers, which isn’t surprising, given the breadth of their events.
Some of their most popular videos are:
- Making Money with Affiliate Programs for Beginners
- Niche Invader: Dominate Any Niche Overnight
- Affiliate Summit West 2019 Keynote Neil Patel
- A Beginners Course on Blog Monetization
- Word of Mouth Marketing
- Chad Hymas Keynote 2015
- and more!
Give them a follow, or at least watch one of their most popular videos, above. If they move you, maybe you’ll consider buying a ticket and attending the event next year in person!
Big Mark
If you’re looking for someone who puts out videos every day (I’m working on getting there!), you’ve got to follow Big Mark. He puts out videos about money, marketing, and mindset (or all three) every day of the week.
And it’s not just tips and tricks about the business itself. Mark loves the mindset and the psychology of it all, too. Because we all know if you don’t think you can succeed, then you won’t succeed in this business (or in any industry, at that).
He wants everyone to live a life where they can make money and still make time for the people and things they love. You can create your dream lifestyle, and he’s there to give you some tips on how to do so.
Mark has almost half a million subscribers, so you know he knows what he’s doing. Some of his most popular videos include:
- Earn Paypal Money Watching Videos **PROOF**
- Earn Per Hour Searching Google – Per Beginners

- Earn Per Day with Google Maps – Work at Home

- and more!
Learn about email marketing, Apps that pay, different marketing courses, website reviews, and more on his channel.
Kevin David
Have you ever heard of “The Freedom Movement?” No, it’s not a civil rights thing, unless you consider it civilly unjust to work a 9-5 job, which, for some of us, it is.
The Freedom Movement is something Kevin David started to show people that they have everything they need to stop working for the man and making someone else money and to start working for themselves. You’re not earning wealth for yourself when you’re only earning a cut of it from someone else!
He puts out new videos every Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, so there’s more than enough content there to make you happy.
Not only does he have over 800 thousand subscribers, but his videos, in all, have over 33 million views. That’s pretty damn impressive!
But why should you listen to Kevin? He lived the life he’s trying to promote. He used to work eighty hours a week at an accounting firm and found himself absolutely miserable.
In his own words (from his Bio) “You can completely change your life at any time, you just need to start.”
His most popular videos include hits like:
- Make $100 Per Day on Youtube Without Making Any Videos
- Advertising on Facebook for Beginners
- Make $30 an Hour Just Watching Videos
- Shopify Tutorial for Beginners
- Earn $500 Daily by Typing Names Online!
- Christmas Gifts for the Homeless
- and more!
Whether you’re a beginner or part of the freedom movement, you’ll get value out of his videos. And the best part? Most of them are around 15-20 minutes in length. Watch them when you’re waiting in the carpool line or when you’re goofing off at work. I won’t tell!
Dusty Porter
If you need less help with the actual sales part of affiliate marketing and more the how-to-use AB or C part, then Dusty Porter’s Channel is for you. You can think of him as the grandson/nephew/or little brother who is really good at technology.
Instead of finding marketing tips on his page, you’re more likely to find tutorials about how to use platforms other people suggest in their marketing tips. That means editing things on YouTube, working with Google Adsense, and more.
And it’s okay – Dusty doesn’t mind if you call him a nerd. He is one – and proudly! And guess what? He’s making money doing so. As of this writing, he has just under 300,000 subscribers and over 67 million views on his videos, combined.
Some of his most popular videos include:
- How to Live Stream on YouTube – Start to Finish
- How to Send a Direct Message with Instagram
- How to Setup Google Adsense from Start to Finish
- Photoshop Tutorials
- How to Edit Videos Using the YouTube video editor
- Streamlabs OBS Full Tutorial
- and more
If you need someone on your side to help you with the ins and outs of the tech you need to be a successful affiliate marketer, Dusty is your guy!
Deadbeat Super Affiliate
Now, you know the stereotype about younger Millenials and Gen Z’ers. Like the kind that was born in the 1990s, right? That they’re all lazy and don’t want to do any work, but want to get paid anyways. Right?
Well, this channel is kind of a play on that stereotype, though it doesn’t necessarily prove it wrong. Just look at the name! Deadbeat Super Affiliate.
He creates content for the kind of person who wants their affiliate marketing journey to be passive. If it’s not something a “lazy” person would do, he’s not going to post about it. And he knows what he’s talking about – the man makes at least $20,000 a month, on an average month.
He has around 200,000 subscribers, which means that there aren’t that many people listening to his “lazy but effective affiliate marketing/internet marketing tactics that REALLY work.”
Some of his most popular videos include titles like:
- How to Make $100 a Day Online as a Lazy 16-17 Year Old
- Make Money Online with Free Wix Websites
- How to Make $1000 a Day on YouTube
- Amazon Affiliate Marketing for Beginners
- How to Make Money on YouTube
- How to Make $1000 a Day Online at 15 or 16 Years Old
- and more!
As you can tell, he markets himself to a younger generation, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use those tips! If anything, it’s worth watching to find out what the kids are up to these days, as the younger ones and the ones that are newer to the game will be ruling the market in ten years.
Keep up with the kids and learn lazy hacks on his channel.
Tatiana James
There aren’t a lot of women in the affiliate marketing YouTube space, and who knows why that is. But if you’re looking for a woman’s perspective on things, give Tatiana James a follow. She runs “Live the Laptop Lifestyle” and is an affiliate marketing coach.
She likes to talk to people who have changed their lives with her tips and through online marketing businesses in general. There are a good amount of interviews on her channel that can easily act as something to listen to, even when you can’t look at the screen.
Tatiana has close to 100,000 subscribers and is getting more each day. You can follow her on Instagram, as she posts links to new content there, too.
She’s another person to follow if you want to hear from the very young in the business, as she’s not even 25 years old. Her videos have over 3 million views combined, though she’s only been creating content for three years.
Here are some of her most viewed videos:
- What it ACTUALLY Cost to Start Amazon FBA in 2019
- How I Make $115,000/Month on Amazon and Shopify
- Amazon FBA Product Research Tutorial
- How to Ship to Amazon Warehouse Step by Step
- 3 Reasons People Fail with Amazon FBA
- My Amazon FBA Success Story – Tatiana James
- and more!
Follow this influencer if you want to see a lot of FBA content and add some female voice into your affiliate marketing learning journey.
Fun Fact: Tatiana’s fiancé Stefan James was a huge motivation for me to start my online business. I remember watching his channel (Project Life Mastery) when working night shifts at about 3 in the morning.
Finding Affiliate Marketing YouTube Channels You Like
Not everyone who has a YouTube channel about affiliate marketing is going to be the right match for you. For example, the Deadbeat Super Affiliate isn’t everyone’s cup of tea – but he still has valuable things to say.
Hopefully, you’ve found at least one or two affiliate marketing YouTube channels (including mine!) on this list that you’ll subscribe to and turn on notifications for.
