YouTube has a new Shorts fund, which gives creators of short videos between $100 and $10,000. While the fund is currently limited to certain countries, it will be available to more people by 2022. Until then, the only guaranteed way to make money on YouTube is to earn 4000 watch hours per year. If you want to be paid well for your videos, here are some tips:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Selling_branded_merchandise_is_a_great_way_to_monetize_YouTube\"><\/span>Selling branded merchandise is a great way to monetize YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can sell branded merchandise through your YouTube channel&#8217;s web store. With no limits to the number of items you can sell, you can get creative with your packaging and sell them to your audience. You can also take your YouTube channel&#8217;s branded merchandise and offer it as a Patreon tier. There are many benefits to selling branded merchandise. One of these benefits is the fact that it will allow your subscribers to support your content through an offline purchase. This can lead to increased subscriptions to your channel and licensing of viral videos.<\/p>\n<p>Before you decide to sell branded merchandise, you should try experimenting with POD options. You may find that some PODs limit your designs, so you should consider testing several before committing to one. It&#8217;s also a good idea to test the quality of the products. You can choose the best option for your revenue potential and quality. The easiest way to sell branded merchandise on YouTube is to include a link to your shop in every video description.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Getting_4000_watch_hours_in_a_365-day_period_is_important_to_make_money\"><\/span>Getting 4000 watch hours in a 365-day period is important to make money<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Despite its seemingly small number, getting 4000 watch hours in a yearly period is critical to making money on YouTube. The YouTube partner program requires that you have at least four thousand hours of video watch time in the past 365 days, which is roughly equal to one year. However, it is important to remember that the calculation for the watch time starts from the date your channel was created, not the first video you ever uploaded. To understand how much you should spend on your video views, YouTube has simplified their calculation process to make it easier to comprehend.<\/p>\n<p>To become eligible for the YouTube partner program, you must have at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours. You must apply for this program once, and once approved, you can continue to build your watch time. However, you must be consistent in producing videos and content. Otherwise, you&#8217;ll start losing engagement with your audience and ad revenue. If you want to make money on YouTube, you need to continually create high-quality videos.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_ways_to_monetize_YouTube_Shorts\"><\/span>New ways to monetize YouTube Shorts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube is adding new ways to monetize its short videos. YouTube has announced the introduction of SuperChats for YouTube Shorts, which are highlighted comments that are paid for. Shorts will also soon offer the ability to shop directly from the video, and creators can post affiliate links to get a commission each time viewers click through to the product. YouTube also hopes to make short videos more popular, so they&#8217;re seeding the platform with $100 million from parent company Google.<\/p>\n<p>YouTube has launched a detailed guide for Shorts, which aims to foster the next generation of content creators. In addition to a youth-oriented audience, Shorts will likely be popular on the platform, especially in areas where they&#8217;re geared towards young viewers. YouTube&#8217;s latest report shows that the number of daily views on its Shorts has passed 6.5 billion. In addition, the videos will appear on the homepage of the website, giving them the potential to become evergreen content.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTubes_Reimbursement_Program\"><\/span>YouTube&#8217;s Reimbursement Program<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube&#8217;s Reimbursement Program (RP) is changing. Effective June 1, it will be able to place ads on its videos without a partnership program, ban facial recognition data collection, and monetize most content on its site. In addition, the company will make changes to the way it pays creators. Regardless of these changes, it is clear that some creators are upset by the news. One creator, Riley Kyle Dignan, has taken a break from the site due to mental health concerns.<\/p>\n<p>YouTube has been updating its terms of service frequently, changing it to meet the demands of its users and regulators. The Reimbursement Program changes monetization 2022 will be no different. The new terms of service will go into effect January 5, 2022. The goal is to make them easier to understand. YouTube has released an explanation for the changes. The following is a breakdown of what&#8217;s changed.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTubes_eligibility_criteria\"><\/span>YouTube&#8217;s eligibility criteria<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Currently, there are some guidelines that YouTube uses to decide which channels are eligible for monetization. Whether your videos are mature or not is another question. If your videos are too graphic or too juvenile, they might not qualify for monetization. YouTube will probably write a blog detailing the criteria for demonetization or ineligibility before long. In the meantime, you can get in touch with YouTube to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to monetize your YouTube channel is to sell physical products. For example, a company could sell an email marketing SAAS to other small businesses. Or a YouTube channel could sell services. A corporate example of this would be a company selling an email marketing SAAS solution that small businesses can use to increase their revenue through email marketing. Regardless of the method, there are some requirements that you must meet to monetize your YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K82ThlLRWVw\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"490\" height=\"274\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Does YouTube Change Monetization 2022?
