Ronaldo Was Previously Banned From Opening A YouTube Channel For Fear Of Crashing The Site In the last few days, the most talked about person on the internet is the star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo, who is one of the most followed people on social networks Facebook, Instagram, and X, joined YouTube and became a topic of discussion on the Internet.
It has not been a week since Ronaldo joined YouTube. Even before that, he had already broken many records when he came to YouTube. By the time of preparing this news, his YouTube channel has reached 45.7 million subscribers.
Ronaldo, who started breaking records on YouTube, had not given any indication of joining the platform before that. There was no information about this issue in any media. Instead, many articles, videos, shorts, and reels have been made on the topic of why Ronaldo can never open a YouTube channel. Most of such content contains unconfirmed information that YouTube has blocked Ronaldo from opening a channel on that platform.
However, neither YouTube has officially given any information about the ban, nor has Ronaldo ever said anything about it. When Ronaldo came to YouTube, the platform commented on a video saying Got (Greatest of all time). Many people were curious why Ronaldo, who is more active on Facebook, Instagram, and X, has not come to YouTube. Considering that various rumors were spread on social media.
According to Similar Web, more than 30 billion visitors come to YouTube every month. On average, users spend 11 minutes and 26 seconds on a page visit. YouTube is the second most visited website after Google. The most visited site is owned by Google and YouTube.
Facebook, Instagram, and X are the third, fourth, and fifth most visited websites in which Ronaldo is active. If the social media platforms behind Google and YouTube can handle Ronaldo’s post or video traffic, why can’t YouTube handle it? Therefore, the argument that YouTube did not allow Ronaldo to come to the platform because of the fear that the traffic would cause the website to crash does not match.
It was said that Ronaldo would not be able to appear on YouTube as he was given special rights to show his face in the video, especially for the contracted brands. However, there is no official information about this.
It has not been officially revealed that Ronaldo cannot show his face in the video except for the contracted brands. There was no legal reason to stop him from coming to YouTube. It does not mean that Ronaldo, who comes to various interviews, cannot appear in the videos he has prepared for himself. Therefore, the information that Ronaldo cannot appear on YouTube due to the contract with the brand is also a myth.
However, it does not mean that the platform that earns the most money through advertising cannot pay Ronaldo for that. According to Forbes, Mr. Beast earned the most money on YouTube. This is the 2022 statistics. At that time, his channel had more than 9.75 million subscribers.
Recently, Beast has become the channel with the most subscribers, surpassing another YouTube channel, T-Series. His channel currently has more than 312 million subscribers. According to Mr. Beast’s platform ViewStats, in 2024, he earned between 301 million and 860 million dollars.

However, Ronaldo did not give any information about the TikTok account. Now, while launching a YouTube channel, he has been informed about it through every social network.
He did not say anything about creating an account on TikTok, which is gaining popularity worldwide as a platform where short videos can be posted. Apart from that, when the video was posted from that account, hashtags like For Your Page and Viral were placed on it. Ronaldo has not used hashtags like For Your Page and Viral in any social media.

By clicking on the link provided by him on the social media account and confirming, that the YouTube channel is subscribed directly. While announcing the launch of the channel, he said, “I am very happy to start this project. This project has been in my mind for a long time. We have the opportunity to make it a reality.”
