This listing is for a faceless YouTube channel, first monetized in April 2024, operating in the News & Education and Information niches. The channel focuses on highly thematic, long-form, evergreen documentary content and has built a subscriber base of approximately 150,000 alongside a library of around 100 long-form videos. The channel generates several hundred thousand views and approximately 250,000–350,000 watch hours per month, with an average view duration exceeding 20 minutes and an impressions click-through rate of approximately 4%. Traffic is driven primarily through Browse Features and Suggested Videos, with additional visibility from search. A key strength of the business is the monetization efficiency and longevity of its content library. The channel operates within a high-value advertising niche and is capable of generating meaningful revenue from comparatively modest view counts. Its established back catalog continues generating traffic and revenue even during periods of limited new content production, with older videos regularly benefiting from renewed audience interest driven by relevant media releases and current events. This provides the business with an evergreen foundation while creating opportunities for significant increases in traffic and revenue during periods of heightened interest in the topics covered. The Seller previously dedicated substantially more time to content production but has intentionally reduced publishing frequency while focusing on other projects. Current production increasingly incorporates AI-assisted research and scripting workflows, creating an opportunity for a new owner to streamline the process further and increase publishing frequency. The Seller estimates that their detailed research and writing process currently takes approximately seven hours per video, while a more streamlined workflow utilizing the existing prompts, processes, and Seller guidance could potentially reduce the time required. As part of the transition, the Seller is willing to provide five completed scripts and one month of hands-on support to teach the Buyer the research, scripting, and content-production methodology used to create the channel's videos. This represents an attractive opportunity for a Buyer seeking an established long-form YouTube asset with strong advertising monetization, substantial recurring watch time, an evergreen content library, and meaningful opportunities to grow revenue through increased publishing frequency, sponsorships, memberships, compilations, and timely content surrounding periods of increased audience interest. Disclaimer: The channel previously received a copyright strike on one video. The Seller subsequently obtained permission from the relevant rights holder to use the material. Additional details are available upon request.

Transition

Seller supportThe Seller is willing to offer 30 days of full support, including email support, calls and additional content generation to ensure a smooth transition for the Buyer. The Seller is open to continuing to work with the Buyer beyond this period (please contact the Seller for more details).
