Great advice 👍thanks
You're a content thief!
Thanks for this!
Priceless or repeated and sometimes contradictive information
Subscribers mean nothing without views
like your channel...
How do you have so much subs with only 30,000 veiws total
@@viggohansen. you have 1 sub shush

Thank you for this video. When I first started UA-cam I was obsessed with getting monetized. But the closer I get to monetization, I am realizing that it really is just the beginning. Even when monetization comes, I won't be making a lot of money at first. In fact, it might take a long time to see some significant revenue. I've found peace in knowing that UA-cam growth and revenue is a very long process and obsessing over every little thing will make me miserable and my content will suffer. I've started adopting the mindset of "If monetization comes soon, that's fine. If it doesn't come, that's also fine because it will one day." If I got monetized today, I would still wake up tomorrow and continue uploading videos, nothing would change so it's pointless to obsess over it. Just my humble opinion from a small youtuber, best of luck to everyone!
Thanks for this
Are you the guy from the community post?
Thank you for watching our videos! UA-cam is a marathon, not a sprint for sure 😉
I think everyone is obsessed with the monetisation aspect of UA-cam?
I mean I was but soon realised that what may be allowed on Adsense is not allowed on UA-cam and vice versa
What I’ve learned is THE HARD WAY-
Make thumbnails
Don’t use ANY CONCERT FOOTAGE OR MUSIC
don’t tag too many things
If you aren’t making the videos horse,f simply don’t use them bevuase you never know if one day yiur going to wake up with a strike against you for someone claiming copyright
-
Ps you should update your profile picture .the image in your profile looks like some hot dude but in your videos he isn’t lol
👍💪
I've managed to sign up 100 people to my Patreon over the last half a week by asking my audience what they wanted as perks in my community tab, voting on the most popular and then implementing them and launching the info in a video I knew would do super well! So I recommend looking into what your audience are willing to pay for too!
Hey was checking out your channel since I saw you did reactions. Seems like we do similar content and was wondering if I could message you somewhere to ask you a few questions regarding UA-cam since you are farther along in your journey than I am. Thanks!
@Christian Rocker sure!! Tweet me or ask here I can't reply with anything more concrete because youtube then blocks my comments!
@@ChristianRocker I do reactions too and just checked your channel and was wondering what apps you use to record your videos?
I just applied today! I was so stoked to finally hit those 4000 watch hours. Thanks for all the advice
Congratulations 👍hope you get accepted
💰💰💰
How
Me getting 4k watch hours in 2 weeks only waiting for the subs
@@fashionbeauty-yd4fe find your nish and it will go fast
Great video, you earned a subscriber! Even though I don't consider myself a beginner anymore, I still remember getting started. It was a tough journey. Of course, things are a lot easier now and I'm super grateful that I didn't give up and stayed patient and all the way through. Consistency (and a little bit of famester as well) is the key! Good luck to all of you, you're gonna make it soon!
Hard work always pays off my friend. Good job.
In Sha ALLAH
Still got more subs then you but i am still a beginner.
For gaming channels out there, the cpm isn't always that low. Some of the games I've played haved gotten up to around 7-9 cpm, with most being around 5-6. Also, SHORTS ARE WHERE IT'S AT. Most of my money comes from shorts currently. They continue growing for a very long time and bring in channel traffic, whereas most of my longform content dies off after a few days. So if you make a video, try and make one or two shorts out of it, you could get A LOT more money from that content.
I’m tryna get to where you are man
Thanks 🙏👍
I got monetized recently, and as soon as I did, one of my shorts blew up. It got 8 million views in less than a week and I earned over $350. I thought it was a lot, but I realised that I will have to be going viral 24/7 to actually keep earning. Now, I only earn $3 a day. I have to switch to long form vids, but they don't get enough views. Help please!!
Yeah i got 7,300 subs but only get 100 to 300 views on long format. Then 1200 to 1800 on shorts. 🤦♂️
And i dont understand why my audience doesn't watch. It's a very specific channel, so if you subscribe, it means you're into that kinda stuff.🤦♂️
@@JeepTrailsandBarbells you need a better hook
@AL1_F1 Yeah, i guess so, but they dont even watch to see the hook. I wonder if its the notification are turned off or if they just dont care to watch 🤣🤣
I feel my content is okay. It for sure needs a lot of work on quality and editing, but like i said, if you're into off-roading, rock crawling and working on off-road vehicles and subscribed to the channel its because you like that stuff 🤷♂️
I've charged more than $200 for being far less than 10,000 subs. So yes, correct it's more about your negotiation and other value, not something you value based on subs count.
Why is it that small channels from 50-500 subscribers will usually gain 5-80k views without keywords, Tags, Thumbnails, just raw footage
But a few Content Creators who spend time editing, using keywords on the same topic/game will get just a few hundred views? I've been seeing this a lot recently, Im just curious why?
I’m assuming it’s because they’re newer channels
Just started, aaaand my videos doesn't seem to get any views at all.. I will keep going at it, maybe someday youtube algorithm will favor me🤞
It will 👍just keep going
Blessings To All In Their Life ♻️🧬💗
This was a GREAT video to watch, especially with me getting closer to that monetization goal. That’s what it is right now, the “current goal”. After gaining access to the YPP, then the real work (AND FUN) begins!
👍
So far my actual monetization matched the estimations frighteningly accurate. Calculating the CPM with my daily views I get exactly what the estimation says I should get 🙏 actually positively surprising.
BTW: my CPM varies around the 6.10$ to 6.90$.
Last year when I was consistent on uploading videos, I got my first sponsor at just 300 subs. Felt unreal but now I am growing again and waiting for the time when I can get sponsors again.
Congrats👍 on the sponsor
We have seen growth from posting 2 high quality videos a week, with shorts inbetween! Just very hard to get people to watch at the start!
I hope I can get to use these tips some day, still a long road ahead!
Keep grinding everyone!
You got this! 😉
Yes we have to its very long but we will 👍🙏
It would be very helpful to do some content geared toward helping less lucrative niches, like gaming, figure out how to make more money. Gaming creators tend to be pretty reliant on UA-cam ad revenue because their audience is younger and not looking to spend a lot of extra money. But with such a low CPM-and with as hard as it is to grow a gaming channel these days-it can be very discouraging. A larger discussion into gaming channel monetization would be amazing.
Interesting
U r right 🙏
I know I am far from this part of my journey but this was extremely helpful in laying out the different areas. This will be booked marked for future reference to come back to later. Again thank you for the content you create to help thousands of people get started in the right path.
I’m really happy atm, idk where and how but my last videos got way more views then before bc of your videos! Thank you!
Interesting
Stay strong my small but beautiful UA-cam channels 😎 we got this!keep up the great work!!! 😀😀😀
Thank you same to you @ThedailyLili!
Interesting
Remember it is about the journey, not the money.
Exactly 🙏👍
@@Aliclashing Yes, have this mindset and you'll skyrocket your views. Always focus on providing your viewers with the best information and make it feel like a journey. 👍
🙏
To begin with, great video, very informative!!! But i wonder can a channel that is not monetized attach links to e-commerce stores like gumroad?🤔
Im a newer gaming channel but I've been watching your videos and just gotta say how much they've helped and inspired me. Thank you!
👍
Great information. I feel like these types of videos really educate creators who are trying to get to the goal of monetization.
Thanks. I like how straight forward this channel is
We are happy to help!
Yah I just started yesterday. And am trying to learn everything I can by watching your channel, testing out different thumbnail types for long videos and testing different types of delivering the same contents in shorts. I truly appreciate what you say in your videos, as it's very insightful information that would likely take a while to learn on my own
This content is good
Just got partner last week, still growing :) Thanks for all the Help!
Do you recommend to turn on all kind of advertisements in the videos?
WHAT DO WE DO IF A VIDEO IS BEING PUSHED TO THE WRONG AUDIENCE
If I were to be monetized on UA-cam...
1. I would answer the monetization questions.
2. I would turn on skippable and unskippable ads.
3. I would turn them on before the video and after the video, but *NEVER* in the middle of the video.
4. I wait for all the revenue to pile up and then continue on with my UA-cam journey.
Those are the 4 things I would do if I were to be monetized on UA-cam.
I started UA-cam channel a few days ago but no views and subscribers are less but i never give up, through ur tips I will try to grow up one day 😊
Go for it! You got this! 😉
@@vidIQ Thank you 🙂
If made a mistake on UA-cam shorts while typing over image , how to edit that??
I finally got monetized last week. Thank you guys
Congratulations 👍on the monetization
Congrats buddy.
Congratulations
I could only dream of getting monetized 😂 Congratulations!
Wow congrats 👍
Good luck 👍🏽keep going for new UA-camrs
Great video! I'm so glad I found your channel, it's been so helpful for me. Thank you for putting out your information in a way that's easy for me to understand.
👍
Hello, I have a few companies that I would like to approach regarding affiliate marketing. One thing I am not sure on is how do I know I'm not getting ripped off? How do I keep track of links taken from my videos and then a purchase is made through to getting my commision?
Interesting
Hi may I ask - does using popular license songs as background (instead of free songs from audio library) for shorts affect monetization eligibity. We all know that popular songs attract more viewers.What's your take on this or please create a video about this. Thanks
I’m wondering the same exact thing!
Thanks for sharing.Your advice is useful
Do I need to be on YPP to have affiliate links in the description? And does affiliate links require the check on "Yes, it includes paid promotion?"
Interesting
Very informative video 👍, thank you sir. We are still small but hoping for the best. cheers!
VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION:
What is your advice to get the impressions higher?
I think I have a good video, with a good title and thumbnail, but impressions are stuck on 0 XD
UA-cam hasn't shown it to anyone, so obviously, nobody could click on it. And it's about gaming (NOT a let's play nor a review) so it should be SUPER easy to find a potential audience. What could I do?
I'm struggling alot with my channel and at a time I started to think it's not my cup of tea but still i wanna struggle more
You can always take a break, it is important to put yourself first:)
I just joined ypp this video help me understand more about it thanks
And yah I do think it's just a beginning about my creators dream
And that most viewers on youtuber, don't appreciate your content enough to even give a like, sub, etc. Viewers are really selfish, so don't really expect much back in feedback or success, until you've made great videos for at least a year, pumping out great videos at a rate of 1 to 7 per week.
I wish I could pump out high quality vids like that
Yes 👍
How do you find youtube sponsorships?
Interesting. I wish UA-cam would push longer content the way they do with shorts.
I agree 👍
Interesting
@@oliviafashionstudio ☺☺
Heck even have a shelf that shows long form content from all around the platform. Could find a gem or find a new topic you never knew could interest you
How you made that “thanks” donation button? It doesnt appear on my tiny channel, guess its because its tiny haha😅
Hi everyone really need some help with some adsense issues.
What do you do if the country you live in is different to where your bank is is that an issue ?
Honestly I'm so tired what does payment threshold mean how am I supposed to make 100 with 0.5CPM and yt even taking 45%of it 🤷♂️🦍
I used to get lots more views a few months ago but they have gone down a lot, unfortunately. Hopefully, they will come back up again soon. :)
Hi...Please how do I join the VidIQ team?
This is what I Found out. Never give up on a video it could be that the algo didn't pick it up yet. My Video about Ja Morant his recent Problems only cracked 60 Views in 15 Days but then all of a sudden My Video got 1k views and now it's on 8k Views. So never give up on a video change the thumbnail to a thumbnail that you think would fit better and maybe change the title
I’m the 1% that loves that thing!
*_Very nice sharing my friend, thanks for sharing and wishes for a happy week to you!_*
Thank for another insightful video!
Out of curiosity, what was the answer to this question in the stream? 6:09
I would love to know that as well.
Even more so:
Can I repost content between my own channels? On my studio channel's livestream I might make an environment or a city which is part of the world of my books on my author channel. Can I use content from that studio livestream unedited (because during the livestream I would already explain everything) on my author channel?
Thanks for the help!

I Haven't Fall For one of the Trap Before seeing this video and I cost me my Moniterization
Just Hope I will gain my Moniterization back 😢
Love all of the advice, thank you
We are happy to help 🥰
Thank you for this video.keep up the great work!

I started my channel a few months ago. I work forty to fifty hours overnight so I have been slacking. actually just found out how to do react videos. I'm just listening to youtube's ideas as I work till I get home
Great video. Quick and full of information.
Thanks alot for your advices 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Is it possible To monetize your Channel if It Doesn't not reach The Target month Requirements?
ok thanks.... Getting closer. Oops just made 3 min vid! OK 8 minutes it is! thanks for all your Info
I see what you did what you did with the bitcoin, wanting people to comment what it’s worth at the time of them watching. Clever clever ;)
The algorithm on shorts and long form videos is all over the place right now. There seems to be no fluid consistency.
👍
I don’t understand. I got way better ctr and audience retention than my last video that got 700 views and this one I get 100 🙄 please answer I need your help.
I was waiting for this video for people to know , thank you for this video
Thanks for sharing😍good luck to everyone🙏🙏
Great tips! Thanks for sharing! 💙🤍💙
Informative. Very helpful video.
Rob you are correct on affiliates. Why would I sell or promote a product I don't believe in? Also why promote a product that has nothing to do with my channel? It's like if you promoted hair products LOL However, some people do because they just want to get paid. They don't believe in the product. That, in my opinion, is dishonest but I can't control them. I think they lose credibility is that correct? I saw the hints BTW LOL. Sneaky call to action on the wall LOL.
Blessings Thank you 🎉🎉
Thank you 🎉so much for your 😊 blessings
I do affiliate but the main revenue off my page is other agents sending referrals to me. The affiliate marketing isn't really for money, more for store credit, which is why my office has been taken over by signs signs and more signs... I'm a hoarder, don't judge 😢
Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for watching! 😊
Helpful information as always.
Thanks.. Got Motivated
I’ve made a whopping $4.88 through affiliate links in 2 years. Is there a general affiliate link I can post to my channel or are they all specific product links?
Interstate
Very good tips, getting me ready for monetization 🙂 My yt is a bit slow at 4 subscribers but I will keep trying! Thank you vidIq!
these videos have been helping my channel gain subscribers so thank you!
I'm already making more from affiliate marketing than I am from ad revenue. That's not hard since I'm still about 50 subs shy of the magic monetization threshold. The little bit of affiliate gold I've gotten is more than the $0 from the ads that UA-cam is playing on my videos.
👍
God bless that day when I'm in that circle 😅 I might just start a telecom channel
UA-cam Ad sense is probably half of my UA-cam income, the other half is Patreon and probably less then a percent is merch lol
Rob , you are simply The Best 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you! Thank you!
Bitcoin is at $29,373.90 - up from the 26949 in your video. Thanks for the advice
Thanks Rob you the best
Can you please make a video on how to start a UA-cam channel with shorts only. Do you think it is good idea to start with shorts only because I see a lots of small youtubers struggling with their channel.
I also started with shorts about 5 months ago and now I have 1100 subs but I'm not monetized. I got better by the day creating shorts. The problem is transitioning into making long form videos so you can get the watch time. You have to put time and focus into creating thumbnails, titles and good content for long form videos. All while implementing the ideas from this video to maximize our potential.
@@Dogdiscoverychannel how do you get these video clips for your channel? Do you film it yourself or you buy it from websites and other youtubers?
@@vishalkr9236 Some of the clips are my dogs, events and other platforms.
Here within an hour goodluck to everyone working hard on their channels 🔥🐈
Thanks 👍and good luck
Please my watch time hour is not updating in my monetization tab
Please create video about community guideline strikes for a beginners
Thank You!
Important topic. Appreciated!
Love that you touch on scalable aspects of memberships! That's something I have been pondering as a music teacher!
Love the burns on YT shorts ad revenue! haha.
I don't even desire the ad money. I just want access to all the tools that Partners get access to.
