Mastering YouTube Monetization: A Comprehensive Guide




YouTube recently made significant changes to its eligibility requirements for the YouTube Partner Program (YPP) in select countries. To enter the YPP and unlock its monetization tools, creators now need:




3,000 watch hours in the past 12 months or 3 million Shorts views in the last 90 days.


500 subscribers.


However, it's important to note that meeting these lowered requirements doesn't immediately grant you video monetization. You will still need to meet the original criteria before you can monetize your content.




To actually start monetizing your content, you must meet the following requirements:




Option 1:




4,000 hours of public watch time accrued within the last 12 months.


1,000 subscribers.


Option 2:




1,000 subscribers.


10 million valid public Shorts views in the last 90 days.


Unlocking Earnings with YouTube Live Streaming




To earn revenue through live streaming on YouTube, creators have two primary methods:




Ad Revenue: Regardless of your monetization status, YouTube inserts advertisements into your content. Once you're part of the YPP, you can earn money from these ads, including those shown during live streams. Various types of video ads may appear at different points in your content, following the CPM (Cost Per Mille) model to determine earnings.




Super Chat: Super Chat allows viewers to purchase highlighted live chat messages that can be pinned to the top of the chat feed. This feature enhances engagement and provides creators with a way to earn revenue during streams.




Please note that creators often supplement their income with outside sources such as channel memberships, sponsorships, brand deals, merchandise sales, and Patreon support.




YouTube Live Streaming Earnings Estimates




Creators can expect to generate approximately $18 USD per 1000 ad views on YouTube. However, after YouTube's 45% revenue share deduction, the average revenue received by creators amounts to approximately $9.90 USD per 1000 ad views. Some key points to consider:




Ad views are counted only if the ad plays at least halfway through.


Creators receive, on average, 55% of the ad revenue.


The average view earning is $0.018, but during peak viewing hours, it can increase to $0.030.


Factors Influencing YouTube Earnings




Your actual earnings can vary based on several factors, including:




Audience demographics.


Viewer engagement and retention.


Stream duration and frequency.


Niche and content type.


Maximizing YouTube Live Streaming Revenue




To maximize your earnings from YouTube live streams, consider these additional strategies:




Activate YouTube channel memberships.


Create and sell merchandise.


Offer exclusive content on Patreon.


Seek sponsorships and brand deals.


Many successful YouTubers primarily rely on these methods for income, as they provide more control and stability than ads or Super Chat.

Q: Need YouTube view stable for API (After the recent update, almost gone by), and the situation, also with watch time (21/10/2024)

A:

VIEWS:

We recommend these IDs which have a very rare case drop (under 5%): 1155, 1046, 1066, 1319, 111 (Speed as described)

ID376 works but may have some videos that cannot be suggested or views not counted.

ID525 works well but speed is slow, may take around 1-5 days for 1K.

ID130, 1104 work good, drop often only for some videos, around 5% of all orders.

All Native Ads views, ID1094, 1050, 999, 1055, 994, 1376, 1375, 1374, 951, 513, 850, 411, 524, 920, ... are not affected by updates but some video content cannot add views

WATCH TIME:

ID881 works good, under 5% drop cases, speed may not be as expected since we have more old views orders to solve on the same server

ID270 has around 10-15% drop cases at the moment and is being fixed day by day to lessen.

ID1435 may work well now, give it a try


20/10

Facebook post likes may have slower orders due to blocking and high order load on our side, often taking 2-4 days to run 500-1000 likes
