Best ways to Make money from youtube Shorts
For a long time, making money with YouTubeShorts was a tricky task. They’re nothing like long-form videos which you can monetize in four steps:
- Join the YouTube Partner Program (YPP).
- Post lengthy videos.
- Turn on monetization for the videos.
- Collect advertising revenue.
Coming Soon: Collect Advertising Revenue from YouTube Shorts: As of writing, YouTube Shorts aren’t part of the formal monetization program known as the YPP. Unless you’re posting long-form videos and achieving the right milestones — 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours — joining the YPP as a Shorts creator is tough.
1.Get 1,000 YouTube subscribers plus 4,000 hours of watch time in the last 12 months.
2.Get 1,000 YouTube subscribers plus 10 million public YouTube Shorts views within 90 days.
2. YouTube Shorts Fund (Leaving Soon):
One way to do that is through the $100 million Shorts Fund. This is something YouTube announced in 2021, and the platform has promised to reward creators with a monthly “bonus” coming directly from that fund. The bonuses range from $100 to $10,000, but the exact amount depends on your Shortperformancein the previous month.
3. Brand Deals and Sponsorships:
There are other ways to monetize YouTube Shorts, and one of those golden opportunities is through brand sponsorships.When a brand sponsors you, they’re paying you to advertise a product or service in one of your videos. That could be a new line of laptops, the latest leggings from Lululemon, or even a squeegee that removes pet hair from dirty carpet.
4.Channel membership:
Your Members make recurring monthly payments in exchange for special perks that you offer.
5.Super Chat & Super Stickers:
Your fans pay to get their messages or animated images highlighted in chat streams.
Final Thoughts
Overall, there are three ways to monetize YouTube Shorts:
- Get a bonus through the YouTube Shorts fund
- Get a brand deal or sponsorship
- Collect ad revenue from YouTube Shorts views (coming in 2023)
The last method is the most exciting. Instead of depending on long-form videos to make money, you can earn revenue from YouTube Shorts alone
