Recently, I have received a YouTube partnership allowing me to monetize my YouTube videos and earn revenue from the advertisements on my channel. I have been waiting for this for a very long time. A partnership is the first step in becoming a successful YouTuber.
With this partnership I was given a Google AdSense account where I can see all the earnings I that my videos have generated. When I first received the partnership, I could only monetize one of my videos. Now, I have monetized all of my videos. Some of my videos have has copyright content and I cannot earn revenue off of them, but that is only one or two videos out of my 82 and counting. Since the beginning of the school year I have only been able to put off 5 videos, but I am counting on Christmas break to get me going again.
Once my channel gets over 100,000 views, I get the second step of the partnership where I can edit my channel with HTML and add links to my website or other things. That will be a while from now because I am only at 42,000 total views.
The monetized videos earn revenue when people click on the advertisements, which most people don’t. Therefore, I have barely made more than $20, which is not a bad start, but I wish it could be better.
My channel is growing fast and at this rate I expect to be on the second step of the partnership by February, so I am not worried about losing any steam on my channel.
This is so cool! You’re going to be a famous YouTuber!! Remember your Digital Media friends when that happens.
Oh my goodness! That’s awesome. Congratulations! Our little Wiz Kid. Don’t sell out like Antoine Dodson did though. He was just on Tosh.0 …. so mainstream.
Very cool, Henry! I wish you the best of luck and much success. BTW, yes, I will count this as the blog from the week you were absent. PLEASE make sure you are doing all the commenting you are supposed to be doing.
