Whether you're new to YouTube or a long-time user, you may
be wondering if you can make money from YouTube Shorts. Unlike regular watch
pages, you won't get paid life-changing amounts for your videos, but you can
earn a share of ad revenue. To qualify for the Shorts Fund, you must meet some
basic requirements.
You must have at least 1,000 subscribers and at least 10
million total views on your videos over 90 days. You'll also need to meet
certain monetization requirements, including posting content regularly. You can
monetize your videos by partnering with brands, or by creating and uploading
original content. You can also apply for a monthly bonus from the YouTube
Shorts fund, which can range from $100 to $10,000.
The most popular YouTube Shorts are short video clips that
feature people dancing, cliff-jumping, pranks and demonstrations of products in
fun ways. This type of content is similar to TikTok's popular vertical video
format.
Advertisers are paying creators to promote their products in
their videos. If you want to monetize your YouTube Shorts, you can approach
brands and companies directly, or you can join the YouTube Partner Program,
which has already generated diverse revenue streams for many creators. The
money you earn from the Partner Program will be yours to keep. You can earn up
to 45% of the total ad revenue from your YouTube videos. The amount you receive
will depend on your location and the amount of total YouTube Shorts views.
The YouTube Shorts fund will reward you with a monthly bonus
based on how well you performed during the previous month. You'll have until
the 25th of the month to claim your bonus. The amount you receive will depend
on the total number of Shorts you've uploaded in the month, as well as your
performance in the past. You can expect to earn up to $10,000 per month, but
this amount will vary depending on the number of views your Shorts get.
You can earn up to 45% of the ad revenue from your YouTube
videos, if you sign up for the YouTube Partner Program. However, if you have a
small channel, you can still monetize your YouTube Shorts on your own. It's
possible to monetize your Shorts if you don't qualify for the YouTube Partner
Program, but there are fewer opportunities for you to earn money from the
platform.
You can monetize your YouTube Shorts with ads, but you won't
be able to insert an ad into a video that's less than 60 seconds. In order to
monetize your Shorts, you'll need to link your AdSense account to your YouTube
account. This will help YouTube cover the cost of music licensing and ad
placement.
You can monetize your YouTube videos through brand deals,
which involve promoting a company's product in your videos. These are a great
way to earn income. But you have to be transparent with your viewers, and
you'll need to tell them when you're being sponsored. If you're a beauty
vlogger, you might partner with a makeup brand to promote its products in your
videos.
