YouTube will no longer let you make money off its platform unless your channel reaches 10,000 lifetime views

Felix Kjellberg, aka PewDiePie, is YouTube's biggest star.YouTube Nearly five years to the day YouTube made its Partner Program available to anyone, essentially letting people create a channel and immediately start making money, the company said Thursday that creators would no longer be able to monetize their channels until they received 10,000 lifetime views.

Once a channel reaches that threshold, YouTube will review it against its policies to see if the channel is OK to begin making money.

YouTube says this is designed to help discourage scam artists and content creators that violate YouTube's policy from making money on the platform, the company said in a blog post.

"In a few weeks, we'll also be adding a review process for new creators who apply to be in the YouTube Partner Program. After a creator hits 10k lifetime views on their channel, we'll review their activity against our policies," Ariel Bardin, YouTube's vice president of product management, said in the blog post. "If everything looks good, we'll bring this channel into YPP and begin serving ads against their content. Together these new thresholds will help ensure revenue only flows to creators who are playing by the rules."

YouTube has been under fire since revelations that the ads of several large brands were appearing next to offensive videos and other objectionable content. That caused more than 250 brands to freeze their campaigns aside from search with Google, which owns YouTube.

Though Google is doing its best to assuage these concerns about brand safety, Nomura Instinet analysts have estimated it could lose up to $750 million from the boycott.

How to make money on YouTube in South Africa

Video-streaming site YouTube is a valuable advertising platform for its parent company Google, with hundreds of millions of hours of videos uploaded generating billions of views.

According to World Wide Worx and Fuseware, South Africa had 8.28 million YouTube users in 2016.

Talk Radio 702 interviewed Google South Africa country director, Luke Mckend, on how South Africans can make money on the video platform.

In December, Forbes released its list of top-earning YouTube stars in 2016, with the world's most popular internet star taking home over $15 million (R204 million).

Swedish 'Let's Play' YouTuber, Felix Kjellberg – known as PewDiePie – retained the top spot on the list, leveraging his sizeable audience to make money beyond YouTube revenue made from people watching him play video games online.

The YouTube star extended his reach through branded mobile games, and even published a book, taking his total earnings for the year up to $15 million (up from the $12 million he made in 2015).

This is significantly higher than anyone else on the list – almost double 2016's number 2, Roman Atwood, a popular "vlogger" (video blogger) and prankster, who earned $8 million.

Mckend said that it is possible to generate a livable income from YouTube in South Africa. "You really have to think very carefully about the kind of content you are going to create. Folks who are able to make a living off YouTube really reach international audiences."

He said the model works in such a way that YouTube places an advert that either appears before a video or an advert appears just to the right of the screen – a static display advert.

"We give the content creator a cut from that particular advertisement," Mckend said.

Each individual advert, he pointed out, is a relatively small sum of money. "So for someone to make a genuine living from YouTube, you need to be delivering millions and millions of views."

He said that, in a South African market, delivering those kinds of hits is difficult. "The guys who have been super successful, have reached an international audience," Mckend said.

The Google exec pointed to channels like Kruger Sightings which appeals to a wide audience including people from the US and UK, and Yellow Brick Cinema – which generates relaxing music, reaching a global audience.

When questioned how much a person can make from uploading content, Mckend said: "Each individual play you are talking about very small percentages of a rand. The last time I looked at this in any detail, you would probably get paid something in the region of R1,000 per million views…that's an estimate."

Mckend said that the way people make money from YouTube though has very little to do with the advertising. He said that many content generators are creating ecosystems around their content that enables them to monetize what they do.

He cited SuzelleDIY as an example. "She has created a brand that has launched her into television. She is making a lot more money from her activities surrounding her YouTube channel than from the channel itself."

Mckend cautioned that it only shares money with content providers if an advert is viewed to its conclusion or if it is viewed for more than 30 seconds. He said the reason for this is that Google only charges advertisers for the placement if the advert it watched to its conclusion.

New YouTube Monetization Policy: Video creators will need 10,000 lifetime views to mint money

New Delhi, April 7: Before creators could mint more money from YouTube videos, the company on Thursday has decided to make sure that all its video creators are legit. Earlier, YouTube let people create a channel and immediately start making money but the company on Thursday made a surprise announcement saying that the creators will no longer be able to monetize their channels until they receive 10,000-lifetime views.

This means that the social network will not allow ads on channels that have fewer than 10,000 views total on their videos. However, revenue earned on channels with under 10k views up until Thursday will not be impacted. After a creator hits 10k lifetime views on their channel, we'll review their activity against our policies. The video giant, YouTube is taking measures to ensure its user-generated content doesn't end up positioning ads by big brands next to objectionable content, reports stated. The company announced a big change to its partner program on Thursday that now requires creators to reach 10,000-lifetime views before it can run ads on channels.

The YouTube Partner Program was first created in 2007. This paved way for producers of very popular content to monetize their videos. In 2012, YouTube opened it up to all creators. The threshold of 10,000 allows a certain level of self-selection wherein videos that offensive enough to never find much of an audience won't be included, reports stated. YouTube's system also automatically placed ads against content using algorithmic methods, meaning preventing this kind of thing on a case-by-case basis is a relatively difficult, if not impossible, task. (ALSO READ: This is how you can download YouTube videos to Android)

The company came up with this decision after revelations that advertisements owned by several huge brands were appearing next to offensive YouTube videos and other objectionable content.

This, however, caused more than 250 brands to reportedly freeze their campaigns with Google.

The company announced last month a handful of changes to its advertising systems designed to give brands more control over where their ads appear.

The video giant announced a big change to its partner program on Thursday that now requires creators to reach 10,000-lifetime views before it can run ads on channels.

The change is a response to repeated user complaints about unlicensed re-uploads of popular videos aka "freebooting." Facebook also often faces this issue with its videos.

YouTube said that the measure has been in development since November and that it's intended to block channels which steal content from other sources from deriving revenue from the platform, The Wall Street Journal reported. Ariel Bardin, YouTube's Vice President of product management, wrote in a blog post that this new threshold gives us enough information to determine the validity of a channel."It also allows us to confirm if a channel is following our community guidelines and advertiser policies. By keeping the threshold to 10k views, we also ensure that there will be minimal impact on our aspiring creators", he added. Bardin said, in a few weeks, YouTube also be adding a review process for new creators who apply to be in the YouTube Partner Program.

Making Money On YouTube In 2018 Being An Artist, Is That Doable?

Youtube is there for quite a few now and has had many incredible successes. But even with billions of views per year, an insane amount of incomes and a worldwide audience and fame, the platform is still evolving.

Evolving not only on a technical aspect but also as a community.

With the drama created around PewDiePie or more recently with Logan Paul, youtubers, viewers and headquarters are trying to make the platform a better and safer place to be.

Everybody from 1 year old to 100 can literally find content to suit their needs and so it then requires to have a very special attention on the way everything is operated.

What mostly is in the discussion these days is all about monetization.

As you surely know by now, you can actually make money out of Youtube.

So, you may have seen that I said "can make money", I didn't say that you will be set for life with that.

It is because Youtubers never really made millions of dollars out of Youtube itself. They have been self branding for years, uploading content on a daily basis, whatever their field was (gaming, makeup, music, tech…) and used this platform to make themselves a name in the whole ecosystem.

Youtubers are like entrepreneurs and therefore bank on their own brand to develop their business.

Monetization is in the discussion all the time because advertisers don't want to put their name in poorly executed content or associate their name with people that could draw a bad attention to their brand.

Therefore, Youtube decided to limit the monetization of creators to a 4,000 hours minimum. Which means that your videos can be monetized if and only if you make at least 4,000 hours of cumulated views on your channel every month.

I have a very small channel at the moment that I upload daily content on it, around 10 minutes per video but I have around 30 views each time. This is far from being the 4,000 hours required to be monetized but why would I care since that would bring me around $0.60 per month?

Now, I understand, some people are having great channels that maybe don't make millions of views but enough to earn around $70 a month for example, that is not a crazy income but that still pays for whatever expenses they may have of that amount.

But I want to be clear with artists that are reading this right now, I think that banking on Youtube to make money is a poor strategy because in reality, it never paid.

Even at a very high level of "recognition" in the Music Business, artists, singers, musicians, never received a check from YouTube. First because their label are making them sign a record deal based on record sales, totally eclipsing their hopes of revenues from millions of views, and because if they make millions of views without a label, their consistency is far from being enough to pay the bills.

Should we stop using Youtube, then?

Hell no!

Youtube is an amazing platform to actually document your journey. Therefore, I think it is one of the most strategic place to be when you are an artist.

I believe in documenting over creating. Which means, everyday, try to upload a piece of content to document your journey as a singer, a songwriter, a musician, a beat producer and document, document, document…

First because this is called self branding. Your content, being consistent will start to appear in searches and google algorithms, and later on you will be one of the content creators that viewers are looking for.

Therefore, you'll be bringing attention to your name and then, bringing attention to advertisers.

Forget about the money that Youtube can bring or not, it just doesn't. Big channels couldn't care less about monetization anymore, and for those who complain, I find it a little bit ironic knowing Youtube made them, and for free. They may have paid for their equipment but never had to pay for that platform.

Focus on documenting your journey as an artist, build your brand that way and use it as a hub to bring even more awareness.

MrBeast, YouTube’s viral philanthropist, explains where all that money comes from

Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson made a name for himself on YouTube by giving away more than a million dollars to strangers and friends in bouts of random donations. Now, a new video on his channel is answering the question he receives most often from fans: where does all the money come from?

The majority of Donaldson's $1 million donations came from brand deals, which many fans may have guessed, but he also relies on going viral to boost his own personal revenue. The more viral he becomes, the more brands want to work with him, and the bigger his own AdSense earnings get. He can then entice viewers with even bigger giveaway videos. It's a never ending cycle.

It started with incrementally sponsored deals from companies like Quid, working with Donaldson on $10,000 videos. Donaldson gave just about everything away: to homeless people, to attractive Twitch streamers, to his parents, his friends, and even his followers. He rolled up 30 million pennies, toyed with major Twitch streamers like Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, and walked around his city donating $1,000 to as many homeless people he could find.

Donaldson explains in his video that after giving away $10,000 to a homeless man for his first major sponsored act of philanthropy, he realized he liked helping people, so he continued doing it. But Donaldson also realized something else: the bigger his giveaways became, and the more extravagant his method of delivering donations seemed, the faster his channel grew. Donaldson went from having a relatively small channel to amassing more than 5 million subscribers. His videos regularly boast more than 10 million views after just a few weeks. The result, as Donaldson says at the end of this video, is a sizable paycheck.

"If you want the special secret, if you want to know where it all came from — my parents aren't that rich, I'm only 20 years old, every dollar I've ever made came from YouTube, and YouTube just pays better than you think," Donaldson said.

Giving away money earned Donaldson the title as "YouTube's biggest philanthropist," but every giveaway video comes with an equally impressive return on investment. It's something that Donaldson has acknowledged in previous videos. One video in particular, titled "Giving my mom $100,000," includes a back-and-forth conversation with his mother about the donation. While she refuses the gift at first, he explains that he needs to give the money away — a combination of sponsorship cash and his own personal earnings — to keep his channel going.

"If I don't give it to you, I don't have a viral video," Donaldson confesses.

"So, you're using me for views?" his mother responds.

"Yes, but you get money too, so we're both happy," Donaldson says.

YouTube creators rely on brand deals — from companies like Quid and Honey — and AdSense for their revenue. Donaldson explains at length about his relationships with the aforementioned companies, but doesn't really get into AdSense revenue. It's difficult to estimate just how much Donaldson is making from AdSense because the average CPM (cost per mille) for YouTube creators, which refers to how much they make per 1,000 views on a video, differs.

However, considering Donaldson regularly amasses more than 10 million views on his videos, and doesn't usually publish content that YouTube would have to demonetize to appease advertisers' concerns, it's safe to assume that Donaldson is making relatively good money from AdSense alone.

Everything comes full circle. Donaldson relies on viral giveaway campaigns to generate more interest from brands and create viral videos. His channel is consistently growing, and he's considered one of the top creators working today. He's given away more than $1 million in less than two years, and shows no signs of slowing down. His revenue model is unique — he's the only "top philanthropist" on the platform — but his method of working with brands to boost his own AdSense revenue is something that others have attempted to copy as demonetization woes continue.

It's unclear what's next for Donaldson, but he does hint in the video that he's working with brands on even bigger concepts for giveaway videos for early 2019.
