YouTube has announced a new monetization policy update that will make it easier for small creators to earn money from their videos. Under the new policy, creators will be able to start monetizing their videos once they have reached 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours in the past 12 months. This is a significant change from the previous policy, which required creators to have 10,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours in the past 12 months.
The new policy is expected to benefit millions of small creators who have been unable to monetize their videos under the previous policy. It is also expected to encourage more people to create and share videos on YouTube.
Here are some of the key things that creators need to know about the new monetization policy:
- Creators must have 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours in the past 12 months to be eligible to monetize their videos.
- Creators must comply with YouTube’s Community Guidelines and Advertiser-Friendly Content Guidelines in order to be eligible to monetize their videos.
- Creators must have a valid Google AdSense account in order to receive payments for their monetized videos.
YouTube has also announced a number of other changes to its monetization policy, including:
- A new “Creator Fund” that will provide financial support to small creators who are not yet eligible to monetize their videos.
- A new “Partner Program” that will provide additional benefits to creators who have reached a certain level of success on YouTube.
The new monetization policy is a significant change for YouTube and its creators. It is expected to have a positive impact on the YouTube community and help to make it easier for small creators to earn money from their videos.
