Now that the word is out that you can make good money on YouTube by monetizing your vlog, just about everyone wants to get it on it. We mean, why the hell not?! You have a your phone, your natural tigas ng mukha and whatever it is you feel like documenting on video, you just give it a go. Malay mo kagatin ng tao, which means pretty soon ads will be rolling out on your videos, and—ka-ching!—ad dollars. Dollars!

But that’s just it—it’s a hit or miss thing. All you can really do is to continue to make stuff and hopefully hit the jackpot…which is exactly the only way we can explain what’s happening to Zeinab Harake. 





To be fair, she has had her share of celebrity, having appeared as one of Willie Revillame’s girls in Wowowin, and the other one being a relatively famous rapper’s ex-girlfriend. Apart from these, she could just be any ordinary pretty girl. 


Except when she started her YT vlog five months ago. Her YT stats say she joined the platform in 2017, but her first real vlog was uploaded only on July 2019. And so far, 52 videos in the can, which is masipag by anyone’s standards. But in less than a year, she has amassed 3.2 million followers and an accumulated views of 110,897,243 views. 


This amounts to 21,333 followers a day since she first vlogged five months ago, and 739,315 accumulated views a day across all her videos.


Wow!


So why are her videos a hit? She does what most everyone else does: challenges, travel, raw daily stuff. You judge for yourselves if you haven’t seen any of her work.


Let’s begin with the most watched:


24 Hr Jowa Challenge (9.1 million views in 3 months)


The latest:

Ano sa tingin niyo, why is Zeinab such a hit? Hanggang kailan kaya ang jackpot niya?
