Yes a YT channel or Twitch stream is a small business. ...and the guys who are successful at it, treat it as such.

  • If YouTube pens the check and deducts your taxes you are considered an employee of YouTube. If you're an independent contractor for YouTube and responsible for paying your own taxes, youre considered a small business. Not arguing just clarifying for others. Not sure about royalties, I'm pretty sure my wife only makes money when people watch ads. I could be wrong though, that's more her thing.

  • YT can barely keep up with the flood of content.. I SERIOUSLY doubt they're tracking and paying payroll taxes.

  • She's worked for YouTube/ Google since 08' reviewing flagged videos. Started her own channel in 2014, but she still flags for them. Technically though, she gets paid through Google, and they deduct her taxes.

  • Probably as a courtesy, since she works for them doing other things.

  • Yep, I agree, wasn't arguing with you at all:). Just saying some people are considered their employees, most though are considered small business ventures. More for clarity for the people arguing it's not a small business.
