TimesLIVE Video YouTube Channel Earnings Report & Research

To answer how much does TimesLIVE Video make, Branzly runs the channel's estimated 175.8K monthly views through the same ad revenue calculator used across the site: a Entertainment RPM of $0.7-$2.7 from 2026 niche benchmarks, with the headline figure taken at the middle of that range ($1.7), the same RPM used in the home page calculator. That puts TimesLIVE Video YouTube ad revenue at roughly $123 to $475 per month, or $1,476 to $5,694 per year from AdSense alone.

RPM is what the channel actually keeps per 1,000 views after YouTube's 45% revenue share, unfilled ad inventory and ad blockers, which is why these TimesLIVE Video earnings figures sit far below the advertiser-side CPM quotes you may see elsewhere. Views from Tier 1 countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia pay the most, while Shorts views pay a fraction of long-form RPM.

On top of ad revenue, we assume one integrated-mention sponsorship per month priced on 33.7K average views per video at a Gaming / Entertainment cost-per-view rate of $0.01 with a 0.8× niche multiplier — the identical model in our sponsorship calculator. That suggests a TimesLIVE Video sponsored video is worth about $227 to $453, with a fair midpoint near $324.

Sponsorship pricing follows views and engagement, not subscriber count, so a large channel with a quiet video is still only paid for the views that video earns. Brands asking "how much does it cost to sponsor TimesLIVE Video?" should expect dedicated videos to cost two to three times an integrated mention.

Channel-level deals work differently again. A retainer is an ongoing fee for a set of deliverables each month, not the sum of every slot the channel could sell, so pricing follows published size bands. With 333.0K subscribers, TimesLIVE Video sits in the Mid-tier (100K-500K subs) band, where retainers typically run $4,000 to $15,000 a month. Niche demand, engagement, cadence across 5 uploads a month and how much of the audience watches each upload decide where in that band a deal lands. Spread back across uploads, that adds about $1,449 of value to each video.

Put simply, TimesLIVE Video YouTube earnings are estimated at roughly $5,422 to $11,072 per month when ad revenue, one sponsored integrated mention and a retainer are combined, or about $65,059 to $132.9K per year. Channels that publish more sponsored videos, sell merchandise or courses, run memberships, or earn affiliate commissions typically make more than this range.

Net worth estimates for YouTubers like TimesLIVE Video usually start from several years of this yearly income, minus taxes, team costs and production spend. Treat any TimesLIVE Video net worth figure as a planning range, not a disclosed number.

TimesLIVE Video (@timeslivevideo) is a sports YouTube channel that has published 6,608 videos and accumulated 222,907,710 lifetime views from an audience of 333,000 subscribers. The channel was created in January 2009, which makes it roughly 17 years and 10 months old, and it continues to publish content for viewers interested in sports topics. In the creator's own words: "TimesLIVE Video is an award-winning visual channel which showcases the latest news and feature videos from South Africa, the world, politics, entertainment, sport and lifestyle. Whether you're looking for a fast news update or in-depth analysis to explore, we've got the quality content you need." Branzly analyses TimesLIVE Video using public YouTube data so creators, brands and media buyers can understand the channel's size, output and likely earning power before they reach out, benchmark against it, or plan a collaboration.

TimesLIVE Video has been on YouTube for approximately 17 years and 10 months, starting in January 2009. Across that period the channel has averaged around 389 uploads per year, which gives a useful signal about publishing consistency: channels that maintain a steady cadence typically build stronger session watch time and more predictable sponsorship inventory than channels that upload in bursts. Longevity also matters for advertisers, because an established back catalogue keeps generating views long after each video's launch week. With 6,608 videos in the library, TimesLIVE Video earns a meaningful share of its monthly views from older content rather than from new uploads alone, and that evergreen tail is one reason estimated revenue for sports channels can stay stable between releases.

TimesLIVE Video currently has 333,000 subscribers, a figure that places the channel in the established mid-tier tier of YouTube creators. Total channel views stand at 222,907,710, and average views per video sit at approximately 33,733. The ratio of lifetime views to subscribers is about 669.4 views for every subscriber, which indicates a strong reach beyond the subscribed audience, typically driven by search, suggested video placements or Shorts distribution. Branzly estimates recent activity at roughly 175,755 views per month based on the channel's most recent uploads and publishing history, which is the number our ad revenue calculator uses to model earnings.

The most-watched long-form video currently visible for TimesLIVE Video is "The Cat Matlala investigation: Following the evidence" with 101,942 views. On the Shorts side, "The Cat Matlala Timeline in 60 Seconds" leads with 2,185 views. Top-performing titles are worth studying because they reveal which hooks, formats and topics the algorithm rewards for this audience. For brands, they also show the realistic ceiling of a sponsored placement: a dedicated integration on a channel of this size will usually land somewhere between the average video performance of 33,733 views and the outliers shown above.

Based on an estimated 175,755 monthly views and typical sports CPM ranges, TimesLIVE Video could earn roughly $123 to $474 per month from YouTube ad revenue, or approximately $1,476 to $5,694 per year. These figures reflect the AdSense share only. Most channels of this size also earn from brand sponsorships, affiliate links, memberships, merchandise and product sales, so total creator income is commonly several times the advertising estimate. Sponsorship value is usually priced per view rather than per thousand impressions, and sports audiences typically command mid-range rates because of advertiser demand in that vertical.

Branzly classifies TimesLIVE Video under the Sports category using the channel's description, keywords, topic signals and the language of its best-performing uploads. Category matters more than raw subscriber count when estimating revenue: a sports channel attracts a specific set of advertisers, and CPMs vary widely between verticals such as finance, software, education, gaming and entertainment. The channel lists ZA as its primary country, which further shapes its CPM because advertiser spend differs sharply between geographies. Public channel keywords include South Africa, multimedia, video stories, audio stories, video, south africa news, online news in south africa, multimedia stories in africa, which supports this classification.

Every figure on this page comes from the public YouTube Data API, refreshed each time TimesLIVE Video is searched on Branzly. Subscriber counts, view counts and video counts are reported directly by YouTube. Monthly views are an estimate: YouTube does not publish per-month analytics for channels you do not own, so Branzly reconstructs recent performance from the views of the channel's latest uploads, falling back to lifetime views divided by channel age when recent data is sparse. Revenue ranges are modelled estimates, not disclosed earnings, and actual payouts depend on monetisation status, watch time, ad formats, seasonality, audience geography and YouTube's revenue share. Nothing on this page is financial advice, and Branzly is not affiliated with or endorsed by TimesLIVE Video or YouTube.

Sports channels like TimesLIVE Video sit in the Entertainment RPM bracket. Advertisers pay more for audiences that buy — finance, business and tech pay the highest rates, while entertainment, gaming and music rely on huge view volume. Seasonality matters too: Q4 ad rates commonly run 30–50% higher than January.
