If you're seriously considering getting into YouTube to make money (or if you're dying to know how people can make money from videos so successfully), here are some different ways you can take it.
YouTube Partner Program
A YouTuber's first step towards monetizing their videos is to join the YouTube Partner Program. This allows YouTubers to be paid for views and advertisements posted on their pages.
There are qualifications you must meet before you can be approved by the YouTube Partner Program. In January 2018, YouTube announced that your channel should reach 4,000 watch hours and 1,000 subscribers in the last 12 months. It's just being eligible for the program. YouTube will then let you know if you've been approved after a review. Once approved, you can start making money.
Money is made through advertisements. There are two types: CPM (cost per thousand impressions) and CPC (cost per click).
If the ad is CPM, that means the viewer of your YouTube video must watch the ad for more than 30 seconds (or for at least half of the ad if it's a short video). Think about YouTube's viewing habits and you know this is more likely than it seems.
If it's a CPC ad, you get paid based on how many viewers click on the ads surrounding your video.
On average, advertisers pay $0.18 per view. If your channel gets 1000 views, it's worth $18. Google retains 45 percent of what is done, so a YouTuber averages $9.90 per 1,000 views.
Once you start making money, you create an account through AdSense so that advertisers can pay you when views or clicks come to you. You can only earn your earnings when your AdSense account is over $100.
In this case, success breeds success. The first dollar you make will be the hardest. However, when you post higher quality content and gain subscribers, you'll have more people watching your content. If more people are watching, it means more chances for people to watch or click on the ads.
