I finally monetized last year after 4 years of uploading!!! The advice in these videos are 100% true.

[@feenixpg3d]

That's amazing! I started uploading a year and a half ago and hope this can happen to me one day as well.

[@sweetlylorelei]

Congrats! This gives me encouragement, because I've only been hopping on and off in a year and some. Hard work pays off!

[@ArwinTours]

Awesome roller coaster videos :)

[@DoffenGG]

​@@sweetlyloreleitook me 2 years to get enough subs to get monetized. I had 600 subs for a year or more and I had met the wall you could say. Until I changed it up and went more into it. The last 5 months I've gotten 100 subs a month and mostly through shorts. I guess the story is, don't give up, have fun with what you do and do shorts even if you are focusing on long form 😄

Just started posting videos 3 weeks ago and doing it consistently. So far so good, purely organic. Learning new skills and sharing our videos is already a satisfaction, other than that will be a cherry on top. As long as we love what we are doing and motivated with our end goals then everything will just follow. Cheers to all of us this year! 😊

[@the_occult_philosopher]

How long did it take to get organic comments? I haven't been organic and still no comments after about a week uploading

[@chefinscrubs]

@@the_occult_philosopher surprisingly, it took me about just right away. I think its more about how good and original your video is to get some attention. KZbin algorithm is just another word for audience. The more they engage and like it the more it will be recommended.

My dream is to make a small side income on KZbin, as I just wanna do it as a hobby. Good luck everyone, im rooting for you!

[@DohertyMusic]

By the sounds of what I’ve heard on these videos, even to make a small income on the side you’d have to do it full time, either that or have some out of this world content. Good luck though 🤞🏼

[@Sakosavagetv]

That's a fantastic dream! Starting a KZbin channel as a side hustle is a great way to explore your creativity and share your passions with the world, all while potentially making some extra income. The best part is that it's totally doable, and there are many successful KZbinrs who started out just like you-as hobbyists.

[@sportyMOTIVATION]

I personally believe that whether it takes 1 month or 1 year when God says it's your time than you will definitely make it on this platform

[@iNINJAgamer]

If you want to make money from ads, it’s best to turn them on because even if you’re NOT in the YTP, they still can make money off your videos. I’ve seen ads on my videos even when I wasn’t monetize. Especially if you’re making good content and get 1000s of views. Now, if you don’t care about all that and taxes and what not, then you don’t have to be monetized. I have another channel where I upload anything and don’t care about monetization on that channel. The content has copyright claims and videos that won’t be getting monetized.

[@Faithistheanswer]

So is the goal affiliate marketing for that channel? I noticed trending topics get more views. I had a channel that was getting 10k views but I was focusing on monetization which I regret because I could have sold products instead I started a frugal living channel and barely getting views smh

[@iNINJAgamer]

@@Faithistheanswer that was the “idea” after I knew the channel wouldn’t get monetized, so yeah, I would genuinely try to upload affiliate marketing videos time to time.

[@LindaNystorm]

Posting Shorts still work really great for me as a side hustle on my second channel. I mean, I am just small content creator and I work really hard (I also use a little bit of fame -ster, but that's a necessity nowadays). I just give all my videos small initial boost, and that caused them to spread literally everywhere, bringing more and more organic views day after day.

[@Mellyxxxxx]

Same here bro I make edits of musicians It's been a month and 11 days and I already have over 187k views and close to 400 subs The new views that come from shorts seem sustainable while the channel is gradually coming up

[@Everything-Wii]

​@@Mellyxxxxxyeah, it's insane how much shorts rack in. I guess when you think about it, people can watch like 10 shorts in the time of a short long-form. I don't do shorts, just not sustainable for my Channel, but it's awesome that it works for you!

Since the first, I've went from 10 to 1130+ subs. Really appreciate your tips. They help a ton!

[@savi78622]

how

[@HUD_TV]

@savi78622 I feel like it's been mainly shorts. They help SO MUCH. I get some of my main videos to grab, based on most of the tips they have given out. Tags help long form videos and shorts boost your channel views overall due to an overflow affect.

[@ImageMaven]

Thanks Rob. This was new to me: “To remain monetized you can’t take more than a 90 day break!” I thought I had 6 months. I was thinking of taking a long break over summer but I see that I need to have a couple scheduled videos in the pipeline before I do that.

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

Schedule video uploads. Can be short ones. And he did say after 6 months of inactivity, it’s at KZbin discretion.

[@Ronnileearagon]

Thanks for letting me know wow!

[@ImageMaven]

@@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk Yes and monetization stops after 90 days. I have a second inactive channel that it happened to. It still gets views but lost its monetization.

[@angelapattatucciaragon]

My channel has been growing slowly but steadily over the past year. However, suddenly my views dropped by about 90% last week and have continued at that level. I checked to see if I had messages from YT indicating that I had screwed things up in some way, but there were none. I checked for other indications in setting, etc. but nothing there. I am at a loss. I publish a video every week and my latest effort is getting a dismal response. Do you have any idea what could be happening?

[@Ronnileearagon]

Have you tried to invite people to your channel that you don’t know or know or would like them to watch your channel??

[@angelapattatucciaragon]

@@Ronnileearagon No. I'm not sure I know how to do that. A few months ago, I tried posting comments on channels similar to mine, rationalizing that maybe some people would see my avatar, click on it out of interest, and potentially subscribe. That was an abject failure. Most Facebook and reddit groups don't allow members to post video content that promotes a YT channel. I don't know how I would do what you suggest.

[@Ronnileearagon]

Share your KZbin channel have them watch your KZbin videos. Maybe some close family members or some friends.

[@HerbyOutlaw]

I have changed a few videos from public to private. If I change those videos back to public will the watch hours be added back to the total?

[@therestlessgardener9287]

Yes. I made that mistake and my watch hours dipped below 4000. It dawned on me that it was because I made some low performing videos private. I put them back to public and in a couple of days my watch hours for those videos were added back.😮

[@HerbyOutlaw]

@@therestlessgardener9287 Thank you. 👍

[@kittyticklehips]

After being monetized, do you need to manually go back to all old videos and turn on monetization yourself?

[@Ronnileearagon]

Good question…..

[@BrickBrickProductions]

Can you guys do a video on how to go live?

[@Rommefn]

A good video Guys

[@AklilMedia]

Thanks 😊

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

So much anxiety to get there. I only have 244 subs, so long way to go. Hoping to get there by summer. I would think that the closer we get, the more momentum we develop. And at the end of the day, a single video can get you monetized. Speaking of single video, my last two videos, which are a short and long version of the same content have moved into the top 3 in just 3 days. And because they are really the same, are my top performers. This shows the power of a single good video. Or the power of a good thumbnail / title combo. Best of luck everyone.

[@Ronnileearagon]

Have you invited any one to become a part of you tube channel like a fan or ect or invited people to watch or take a look at your you tube channel

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

@@Ronnileearagon if you mean to improve the channel, then No. most of the work that needs to be done involves time. And that seems to be a factor I don’t have a ton of. Slowing down a bit, and trying to put more effort into my videos is probably a good idea.

I worked my butt of to get to the 500 subs hoping to have a chance of getting some monetization.... Now, some months later I'm already well over 2K subs and still no monetization because I just can't seem to get the watch hours ups... They've been stuck at around 1200 hours for months now... So frustrating, ngl.

[@pinballjunkies]

Keep going, we subbed!

[@Anti-Villain-Wolf]

QUESTION: My most recent livestream got a copyright restriction over music that was playing in the game I was playing, but it says "Copyright-protected content found. The owner allows the content to be used on KZbin." Could that cause problems with my channel later when I try to get monetized or will that impact my ability to get into the YPP? Could that result in a copyright strike later on? Would it be better to just delete the sound from that section of the stream? Thank you guys for all that you do! Also, Rob deserves a raise lol

[@AaronDoster]

My number one priority is to make content others love to watch and to help others. My end goal and dream is to be a full time KZbinr. I’m very passionate about making content and have 3 channels I make content for and just really enjoy it.

@@bbreak have you tried hosting live sessions?

[@bbreak]

@ShredFit101 nope. Unfortunately, not an option due to some practical limitations. We can only do shorts and long form. With both it's quite unlikely we'll get monetized anytime soon. People love our content, the algorithm kinda hates it, though

I got monetized even when i had a copyright strike takedown on one of my videos, Don't know how. But all others videos were orginal content. Guess its not a problem if most of your videos are original content.

Sometimes I guess people don’t want other people using their content because they can make money off and earn money off it so they want to use it as their own and it is claimed owned no body can use it used you’ll get copywrited..

Still kinda werid how the first tier requires 3k watch hours in comparison to 4k watch hours for the second tier when looking at long form, while it's 3 million short views versus 10 million views for the second tier when looking at shorts... With long-form the difference is quite small between the tiers (because let's face it: the 500 versus 1k subs is easy), with short form the difference is HUGE....
