YouTube is home to billions of videos spread across millions of channels, though most of them don't enjoy any level of popularity. As a result, it's natural to wonder who's at the top; most people have probably asked who the biggest YouTubers are.

Let's count down the most-subscribed channels on YouTube. We'll take a look at how many subscribers each one has, along with providing a summary of their videos so you can decide whether you should subscribe to them too.

Keep in mind that while these subscriber counts were accurate at the time of writing, they are subject to change.

10. Vlad and Niki

Subscribers: 70.8 million | Views: 52.223 billion | Genre: Children/Family

Vlad and Niki is a family channel that centers around the eponymous children, who were born in February 2013 and June 2015 respectively. Like other family-oriented channels, it revolves around the brothers playing at home, going to various children's attractions, doing crafts, and showing off cool toys.

The channel got its start when Vlad and his mom did unboxing videos of toys. Later, it grew into much more after they signed a deal with a licensing agency to enhance the product coverage and make new types of videos.

The primary channel is in English, but they run other channels that upload the same videos in Spanish, Arabic, and many other languages.

Should you subscribe? This channel is certainly aimed at young children. If you're a parent, your kids will probably enjoy it, but adults need not apply.

9. 5-Minute Crafts

Subscribers: 73.2 million | Views: 20.702 billion | Genre: Family/DIY

This channel primarily focuses on "life hacks," which are quick workarounds or tricks to increase your efficiency. Aside from those, the channel includes crafts, parenting tips, and similar.

While some life hacks are genuinely useful, a lot of them are gimmicky or even dangerous for children to perform. There's some fun to be had here, but a lot of the videos contain tips that are of questionable value. It also relies on clickbait-style thumbnails.

Should you subscribe? While you could have some fun trying the simple life hacks, especially if you're a parent looking to think outside the box, this channel is definitely a fit for younger audiences. You've likely seen videos like this floating around social media before.

8. Zee Music Company

Subscribers: 75.8 million | Views: 39.866 billion | Genre: Music

Zee is an Indian music label that's part of the larger Zee Entertainment, which produces movies, TV, and other online content. As a result, this channel is home to music and associated videos for artists on the label.

The channel is primarily in Hindi, and most videos lack subtitles in English or other languages.

Should you subscribe? If you're a fan of Indian music or are looking for some new tunes, you'll enjoy what's on offer here. Otherwise, there's not much reason to subscribe.

7. Like Nastya

Subscribers: 76.1 million | Views: 60.770 billion | Genre: Children/Family

Like Nastya is one of several YouTube channels run by 7-year-old Anastasia Radzinskaya and her parents, who are Russian and now live in Florida. Like Vlad and Niki, this is a channel for children. Its videos focus on various fun activities, like making gifts for friends, playing in cool places, and basic learning.

In addition to being in the top subscriber list, Like Nastya also holds the record for having the most video views for a channel owned by an individual (not a company).

Should you subscribe? If you're a parent of younger kids, they'll likely enjoy what's on offer here. Anyone who's older than elementary school will find it too childish.

6. WWE

Subscribers: 80.2 million | Views: 61.289 billion | Genre: Sports

WWE, or World Wrestling Entertainment, is a media company that's the biggest professional wrestling entity in the US. Its YouTube channel is full of top 10 lists, behind-the-scenes videos, and even clips of full matches. It uploads many videos per day, so there's always something to watch.

Should you subscribe? This is clearly a YouTube channel every wrestling fan should follow. In case you don't enjoy watching fake fights, you probably won't find much here to change your mind.

5. Kids Diana Show

Subscribers: 82.1 million | Views: 60.748 billion | Genre: Children/Family

This channel, featuring a young girl from Ukraine, is quite similar to Like Nastya. It, along with the other associated channels, features Diana and her brother enjoying all sorts of kid-related activities. You'll find them playing pretend, trying cool toys, and going on adventures. Some of the videos rely more on facial expressions than narration.

Should you subscribe? Again, this is aimed at kids alone. Anyone old enough to find a list like this won't care about what's on offer unless they parent kids in the target age range.

4. PewDiePie

Subscribers: 110 million | Views: 27.679 billion | Genre: Comedy/Gaming

This one might come as a shock. Felix Kjellberg, better known as PewDiePie, is a prolific YouTuber who once had the most subscribed-to channel on YouTube. In the latter half of 2018 through early 2019, a showdown between PewDiePie and Indian record company T-Series emerged, as the latter began to approach the most subscribers on the service.

After having the most subscribers on YouTube since August 2013, PewDiePie was overtaken by T-Series on March 27, 2019. The lead changed hands a few more times before T-Series became the clear victor of the battle on April 14 of that year.

PewDiePie still holds the record for the longest time being at the #1 spot, at 2,050 days. As of this writing, T-Series has been at #1 for 850 days.

As far as the channel itself, PewDiePie initially built his popularity with Let's Play-style gaming videos, but now tends to upload vlogs, reaction videos, and other commentary-style content. He has considerable influence in the games industry, and has led many people to check out indie games featured on his channel.

Should you subscribe? If you enjoy reaction videos and silly commentary, or just want to see what has made PewDiePie so popular, you should definitely subscribe.

3. SET India

Subscribers: 111 million | Views: 94.495 billion | Genre: Entertainment

SET, or Sony Entertainment Television, is a TV station in India. As the name suggests, it's owned by the Indian division of the Sony corporation. SET's channel contains full episodes of shows from the channel, such as Indian Idol and Super Dancer. You'll find full episodes, as well as highlights and recaps.

The videos are in Hindi and there are no subtitles available.

Should you subscribe? Unless you speak Hindi or have an interest in Indian television, this channel probably doesn't hold much for you.

2. Cocomelon

Subscribers: 116 million | Views: 107.531 billion | Genre: Children

Cocomelon is another channel for children. It's owned by Moonbug Entertainment, a British company, and is the most-viewed channel in the United States.

Unlike the kid-oriented channels above, Cocomelon specializes in animated videos. Many of them are traditional nursery rhymes, though there are also original songs from the channel. Each one has the lyrics at the bottom of the screen that are colored in to match the singing.

Should you subscribe? This channel is a good way to wind down kids before bed, or keep them occupied for a bit. But like the other children's channels, adults will have no interest in this.

1. T-Series

Subscribers: 190 million | Views: 162.258 billion | Genre: Music

T-Series is an Indian record label, mostly known for Bollywood soundtracks and Indian pop. Like the other channels from India, its videos are in Hindi, and don't feature any English or other subtitles. As discussed above, it's been the YouTube channel with the most subscribers since it surpassed PewDiePie.

Given the company's industry, it's no surprise that this channel primarily uploads music videos and official audio, though you'll also see clips from various shows. T-Series uploads a lot of videos, and most of them get high view amounts of views too. In fact, in addition to having the most subscribers, the T-Series channel also has the most views on YouTube. In another milestone, it was the first channel to hit 100 million subscribers.

Should you subscribe? If you have an interest in India, its films, or its distinctive music, give T-Series a look. Most others won't be too interested, though you can still enjoy the music even if you don't speak Hindi.

Changes in YouTube Channel Popularity Since 2018

The YouTube channel scene has changed dramatically since we first published this list in March 2018, which leads to some interesting tidbits to review.

Of the top 10 most-subscribed YouTube channels from March 2018, only two of them (PewDiePie and T-Series) are still in the top 10 today. However, all 10 of the prior top channels still land in the top 50 channels today.

VEVO channels such as TaylorSwiftVEVO, which uploaded music videos, are now obsolete even though many of them used to top the subscriber count charts. In 2018, YouTube combined these VEVO channels with the official artist channels, but none of them make the top 10 now. This is likely due to the skyrocketing popularity of channels for children.

Overall subscriber counts of the top channels have gone way up, too. The top spot in our March 2018 list (PewDiePie) had 61.5 million subscribers at the time, while the #10 spot today beats that, at 70.5 million. Additionally, the 50th most subscribed-to YouTube channel (Alan Walker) has 39.9 million subscribers, while the #10 spot in the original list (Whinderssonnunes) only had 27.8 million at the time.

And the #10 channel today (Vlad and Niki) has just over three times as many views on its videos (52.223 billion) than PewDiePie did in 2018 (17.363 billion).

The Most Subscribed YouTubers Are Something Special

With the heavy competition on YouTube, it's impressive to become one of the channels with the most subscribers. Most of these channels will only appeal to young children or fans of particular music styles, but don't forget that these are only a small portion of what's on YouTube.

There are tons of other channels to discover that will certainly have something you enjoy.
