How to make money on YouTube

There are several ways to earn money on YouTube. Here are some popular methods:

Advertising revenue: You can earn money through advertising revenue by allowing ads to run on your videos. YouTube pays you a percentage of the advertising revenue generated from your videos.

YouTube Partner Program:

You can apply to join the YouTube Partner Program, which allows you to earn money through advertising revenue, channel memberships, merchandise sales, and Super Chat and Super Stickers during live streams.


Sponsored content: You can collaborate with brands and companies to create sponsored content. In this case, you'll be paid by the company to feature their product or service in your video.


Affiliate marketing: You can earn money by including affiliate links in your video descriptions. When viewers click on these links and make a purchase, you earn a commission.


Crowdfunding: You can use crowdfunding platforms like Patreon, Kickstarter, or GoFundMe to earn money from your viewers.

It's important to note that to monetize your YouTube channel, you need to have at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time in the past 12 months. Also, make sure that you follow YouTube's community guidelines and terms of service to avoid any violations that could affect your eligibility to monetize your videos.
