How to Enable Monetization of your You Tube Videos
There are a few steps you have to do before YouTube allows you to monetize your videos
- Enable your account for monetization - This is ticking a monetization option in your YouTube account, and agreeing to the YouTube monetization agreement.
- Connect your channel to an AdSense account - Either create a new AdSense account or attach this YouTube channel to an existing account you have
- Review video criteria and ad formats - YouTube will only allow you to monetize what they consider “advertiser-friendly” videos. This means you cannot charge for videos showing violence or nudity, and in particular, you agree that your videos are not breaking any copyright laws (you need to be particularly careful when using background music). You also get to choose which types of ads you want, e.g. display ads around your video, overlay videos, skippable video ads, or a number of other types).
- Set up the videos to monetize -You need to go into each video you want to monetize and set the ad formats you want to use. You also get to choose which types of ads you want, e.g. display ads around your video, overlay videos, skippable video ads, or a number of other types).
- Wait for YouTube to review your channel - After you have done all this, YouTube will check that everything is in order. Once you have been accepted for monetization by YouTube, get busy making and promoting videos.
Note that this process can take a few weeks, so do not expect to see any money rolling in straight away. If everything goes smoothly, you should start seeing ads on your videos within a few weeks.
Once you have done these steps, and been accepted for monetization by YouTube, get busy making and promoting videos. You will need to create a large collection of well-promoted videos to start making any decent level of income.
Monetization Policy
Monetizing on YouTube can be a great way to make money, but it's not easy. You need to create great content that will appeal to a large audience, and you need to do it consistently. But if you can manage to do all of that, the rewards can be very lucrative.
By using a YouTube money calculator, you can estimate how much money you can make from your channel based on several factors, including the number of subscribers, the number of views, and the level of engagement of your viewers.
No matter what, remember that YouTube is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It takes time, effort, and dedication to build a successful channel. Do not expect to start making thousands of dollars overnight. But, with this tool, you could plan and track your progress to see how much advertising revenue and other income you could potentially earn.
