The online content world is constantly evolving, and if you're a creator like me, you're probably always looking for a better, fairer, and more rewarding platform to grow your audience. After years of sticking with the usual suspects—YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram—I decided to take a bold leap in 2025 and switch to Rumble. π
And let me tell you: I’m not alone. Thousands of creators are making the move. If you’re wondering why this shift is happening and what makes Rumble worth your attention, grab a coffee ☕ and let’s dive in.
π The Frustration That Sparked the Change
Like many content creators, I spent years building an audience on traditional platforms. I poured my heart into videos, stayed up late editing π¬, and followed every new algorithm update.
But here’s the truth:
π Monetization became harder.
π Creators were being demonetized for speaking their minds.
π The rules kept changing, often with no warning.
It became clear: I was working for the platform more than I was working for myself. π
π― Why Rumble Caught My Attention
I first heard about Rumble through a fellow creator who said, “Dude, they actually pay you fairly over there.” I was skeptical at first. But I checked it out—and wow.
Rumble is different. Here’s what stood out to me:
✅ 1. Fair Monetization (Even for Small Creators)
You don’t need a million subscribers to start earning. Rumble has a monetization system for everyone, including new creators. Whether you get 10 views or 10,000, you still have the chance to earn. π°
Unlike some platforms that require 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours, Rumble lets you get started from day one.
π 2. Freedom of Speech
Let’s be real. Many of us are afraid to share our real thoughts on some platforms due to fear of censorship or demonetization.
On Rumble, you can speak freely—without constantly watching your words. π£️✊ This has attracted a wide variety of creators: gamers, educators, comedians, vloggers, and even independent journalists.
π 3. Exposure Through Licensing
This blew my mind: When you upload a video on Rumble, you can allow them to license it to media companies. That means you can actually get your content seen on big networks and get paid extra for it! πΊπΌ
Imagine your video going viral and ending up on a news broadcast. With Rumble, it’s possible.
π» How I Got Started on Rumble
I won’t lie—I was nervous to start over on a new platform. But it was surprisingly easy. Here’s what I did:
-
Created a free account on Rumble.
-
Uploaded some of my older content and watched it get views. π
-
Started making new, exclusive videos just for Rumble.
The interface is clean, and uploading is fast. Best of all? They don’t strangle your reach. My videos started getting organic views without me having to do much promotion. π₯✨
π Comparing the Numbers
After a month of testing the waters on both platforms, here’s what I noticed:
-
YouTube: 3,000 views = $1.50 (after all deductions).
-
Rumble: 1,200 views = $6.25 π₯
It’s not just about the money—although that helps! π It’s about the platform treating my effort with real value. That motivated me to keep going.
π Why More Creators Are Making the Move
I started connecting with other creators who had also joined Rumble. Here's what they had to say:
-
“I feel like I have a voice again.” π£️
-
“My views are actually going up, not stuck in a shadowban.” π
-
“I’m not always anxious about the next policy update.” π
For many, it’s not just about monetization—it’s about peace of mind and creator respect.
π§ Tips to Succeed on Rumble in 2025
If you’re considering Rumble, here are a few tips to help you hit the ground running:
π― 1. Stay Consistent
Upload regularly, just like you would on other platforms. Rumble’s audience appreciates creators who stick around.
π¨ 2. Use Strong Thumbnails
A good thumbnail goes a long way. Even though Rumble is still growing, people still judge videos by their covers! πΈ
π’ 3. Promote on Other Platforms
Share your Rumble links on Facebook, X (Twitter), Telegram, etc. Let your current audience know you’re creating content elsewhere.
π 4. Use Descriptions Wisely
SEO works here too! Include keywords in your titles and descriptions to make your videos discoverable.
π€ So… Should You Try Rumble?
Here’s my honest take: YES, especially if you're feeling stuck, stifled, or ignored on bigger platforms.
Rumble may not have the glitz of YouTube (yet), but it has something far more valuable for small and mid-size creators: opportunity.
Whether you're vlogging from your bedroom, teaching a skill, or sharing life updates, there’s a place for you on Rumble. πͺ
π§ Final Thoughts
Switching to Rumble was one of the best moves I’ve made as a creator. I feel re-energized, appreciated, and finally free to create without limits. π¬π₯
And here’s the best part: You can still use other platforms too! Rumble doesn’t require exclusivity (unless you want it). So, you’re free to diversify your content game.
If you’ve been wondering whether to try something new in 2025, Rumble might just be what you’ve been missing. Give it a shot—you’ve got nothing to lose, and possibly everything to gain. π°π✨
