I think it's key for creators to diversify their income and generate revenue from different streams. This is especially true in light of platforms becoming increasingly restrictive and unpredictable with their content moderation policies. Relying solely on automated ad systems as a means of generating revenue leaves the creator susceptible to the algorithm. It seems like the biggest asset that creators are creating are the communties that form around them and their content. Even for smaller creators, I've seen time and time again that all you need is one or two highly dedicated and engaged fans to make being a creator an extremely lucrative endeavour.

I've been working on a platform to help creators diversify their revenue streams and focus on developing their community as an asset on top of just creating content. The hope is to try and bring more predictability in their ability to monetize. http://sociables.com/creators
