If you make short videos on YouTube or you plan to create a YouTube Shorts channel, then there is good news for you because now YouTube is going to monetize short videos and channels with short videos from 1 February 2023. In this post, the process of how to monetize a YouTube short channel has been explained.
Like TikTok and other short video platforms, YouTube has also provided the feature of uploading short videos. Till now there was no good way to earn money from short videos. Nor was there any option to monetize the short channel. But now from February 1, 2023, YouTube short channels will also be monetized and money can be earned from them like long video channels. Today itself YouTube has confirmed this by sending an email to all the creators.
If we talk about short-channel monetization eligibility then it is something like this
- You want to create a YouTube channel
- A short video will have to be uploaded on this (video less than 1 minute)
- Your channel should have 1000 subscribers in 90 days
- Total views of your short videos should be 10 million in 90 days
- If you upload a long video the total viewing time should be 4000 hours.
- To achieve this target, channels with short videos get 90 days and channels with long videos get 1 year.
- As soon as your target is achieved, you can submit your channel for monetization.
- By creating an AdSense account, your channel will be monetized and you will be able to earn money from it.
You need to keep in mind that if you upload only short videos on your channel, you have to get 1000 subscribers and a total of 10M views in 90 days to earn from your channel, and if you upload long videos along with short videos, Let’s upload. So the total time of watching a long video should be 4000 hours which time is one year. So whatever target you achieve, you can submit it for channel monetization accordingly.
Apart from this, you can also earn money from your channel through affiliate marketing, sponsorship, super chat, and joining. So start a YouTube shorts video channel now and achieve your goal quickly. You will be able to earn from this from 1st February 2023.
