MrBeast has just overtaken PewDiePie as the most-subscribed YouTube individual.

This is the first time in 10 years there’s been a change at the top of the most-subscribed YouTuber leaderboard.

It’s been a long way to individuals reaching 100 million subscribers.

On YouTube, way back in 2006, Judson Laipply was the first recorded individual to have the most subscribers, with mere thousands. In the same year, Brookers was the first channel and individual to reach 10,000 subscribers – and that was a big deal. Currently, the most-subscribed channel on YouTube is T-Series, an Indian record label and film studio. T-Series was the first channel to reach 100 million subscribers in 2019 and the first to 200 million in 2021.

T-Series currently holds twice as many subscribers as the top individual YouTuber.

Being an influencer is big business.

This list has been compiled to provide a reference point of data and we report impartially on anyone included in the top 50 YouTube individuals list. At Search Engine Journal, we are aware that some of the individuals included have a history of being divisive. We would like to make it clear that in no way do we support or endorse their behavior or beliefs.

Who Is The #1 Most Subscribed YouTuber?

As of December 2022, MrBeast is the most-subscribed YouTuber, with 116 million subscribers. PewDiePie is the second most popular with 111 million subscribers. To celebrate reaching 100 million subscribers, MrBeast gave away a private island – which is probably a part of the reason he took the top position from PewDiePie.

Who Are The Top 12 Most-Subscribed YouTubers

The top 30 most-subscribed individuals features many successful music artists, but has a majority of native YouTube influencers. With the channel becoming an integral part of marketing and distribution for music artists, it’s no surprise that top artists feature highly. Justin Bieber (the top individual artist) leveraged YouTube from an early age to gain mainstream attention on his terms. MrBeast has 40 million more subscribers than Bieber, which highlights just how much attention the channel can achieve – and that, today, being a YouTube influencer is being a celebrity. To get a better understanding of who all the influencers are, we’ve included a summary of the top 12 most-subscribed YouTuber influencers below.

1. MrBeast

US-based Jimmy Donaldson started MrBeast as MrBeast6000 in 2012, when he was only 13. He also holds 5 other channels, including Beast Reacts, MrBeast 2, Beast Philanthropy, and MrBeast 3 (inactive). MrBeast Gaming also sits in the top 30, with just under 30 million subscribers. MrBeast early videos include counting to 10,000 non-stop (a 44-hour stunt) which quickly went viral, but is now best known for videos that involve elaborate stunts, charity donations, or cash giveaways. In one video he gave away $1 million. Donaldson also features philanthropic stunt videos, such as “Giving A Random Homeless Man $10,000″ and “Gave $500,000 To Random People.” Jimmy Donaldson’s net worth is estimated by Forbes to be around $500 million.

Why YouTubers Are Significantly Influential For Online Marketers

Achieving a most-subscribed status on YouTube cements you as an influencer and enables you to make serious income. Not only can YouTubers earn from ads on the videos, but they are also in demand as brand ambassadors for product placements, product reviews, and product collaborations. Mere mentions of products and brands by an influencer can drive traffic and sales for brands. As seen by the impact of Ryan Kaji and his family, it can also influence an entire industry. Smart influencers use the exposure to diversify into many mainstream areas of collaboration and business to supplement their income and ensure longevity. Much like top-level sports stars have always been in demand as brand ambassadors, influencers can be used for brand alignment. Influencer marketing is useful for online marketers to spread a message and reach a target audience. Influencers can be leveraged as part of specific campaigns, or to create hype around a product or brand. Influencer marketing doesn’t have to be just for the big brands; influencers with only a few thousand engaged followers can help spread messages. And for smaller brands, elevated exposure on social media can be a major benefit.
