Instagram has generated more than $ 20 billion in advertising revenue over the past year, compared to YouTube $ 5 billion

Facebook bought Instagram in 2012. Now the application is giving Facebook a large share of the total revenue. Last year, more than a third of Facebook's revenue came from Instagram. Instagram made $ 20 billion from advertising last year. Not only that, Instagram has earned $ 5 billion more than Google's YouTube ads. However, YouTube is the most notorious in terms of advertising.

Unlike YouTube, Instagram gives creators nothing of their income. According to Rothpreet, CFO of Alphabet, YouTube paid $ 8.5 billion to creators last year, while there was no such spending on Instagram. ۔

It's not like the creators on Instagram earn anything. Celebrities like Kelly Jenner or Cristiano Ronaldo make up to $ 1 million by sharing a product and Instagram gets nothing.
