At the beginning of the year I started a fully automated YT shorts channel and now it's finally getting a lot of views. The niche is kinda random, mostly movie clip compilations, so I am not sure how to monetize it. I though of adding a link to each video leading to some CPA site, but that might get the channel removed due to term violation. I hope some of you have better ideas of how to milk it for money :D
 
Since you are already getting good amount of views, then it's time you start uploading contents that you can add links to .
Example , you could upload a YouTube short on an affiliate product and add your affiliate link beneath your video but make sure to use a link shortener coz YouTube don't like affiliate links.

Wouldn't I just be losing subscribers, since people wouldn't be interested?

Do you know that most people who watch your short videos are not your subscribers., I bet you didn't know that.
All i am saying is that you upload videos that of value and then you post a shortened affiliate link below your video or better still a landing page link for the affiliate product.

I just think that 'watch full movie here' type of link would probably do better than just posting random affiliates videos on top and losing the audience. Obviously most of the viewers aren't subscribers, but they will be if the content isn't trash.
 
Affilates and product sales are the only option
 
Create an audio track and copyright it. Then add it to your videos --> You will get royalties for that audio
 
I tried some things, but it seems short viewers avoid links like the plague. I tried including encouraging text in the videos to click the link in comments, I tried including short links in videos, but no clicks at all. What am I supposed to do with this channel? It's growing fast but it's completely useless to me.
 
There are several ways to monetize an automated short channel, some of the most common ones include:
  1. Sponsored content: You can partner with companies or brands to create sponsored content that aligns with your channel's themes and interests. This can include things like product reviews, sponsored videos, and affiliate marketing.
  2. Ad revenue: You can monetize your channel through advertising by enabling ads on your videos through a platform like YouTube. You'll earn a share of the ad revenue generated from views on your videos.
  3. Subscriptions: You can offer exclusive content, perks, or access to your subscribers for a monthly or yearly fee. This can include things like behind-the-scenes footage, live streams, and early access to new videos.
  4. Merchandising: You can sell merchandise like t-shirts, hats, and mugs featuring your channel logo or designs inspired by your content.
  5. Crowdfunding: You can use platforms like Patreon or Kickstarter to crowdfund your channel and receive support from your fans.
Remember, the key to monetizing your channel effectively is to create high-quality content that resonates with your audience and build a strong, engaged community around it.

Is ChatGPT taking over this forum or what?
 
I started including a text 'check comments' in each video with a link inside comments. I get around 10 clicks per 1k views. It's terrible really, but I don't think I can expect more from shorts.
 
Now YouTube is running ads on shorts and paying for it. Have you tried that program?

I've been meaning to do this. But my movie clips either gets 0 views or gets taken down by youtube. Any tips?
