Youtube Q&A [AMA]

Veselin Dragnev said:

If I start a channel and I use copyright videos (+no copyright music) and mix them and give credits in description of course is it possible I get approved for monitezation? Or my content must be completely unique and made by me to achieve that goal. Example: There is many motivation fitness channels that use footages of many fitness models in teir videos and no copyright music ,they just give credit in desc? So do they monetize views by ads?

For those seeking direct monetization from YouTube videos from YouTube itself.

guys have got to remember that your niece will dictate and change your results so one person's answer is not yours.
It's up to you to find out.

I personally don't give a damn about what YouTube's money is. You have traffic that's worth a lot more than just money.

I personally dont have any exp. with loquedo (from what I understand its a text to speech program?)
If that the case, Its quite possible youtube finds the content CHEAP and or Fake.
Its not hard to get a quick V.O.
check FIverr/google for help.

type the script out and hire someone to read it aloud.
I think id be worth re uploading BUT look into other ways to monetize BEYOND the monetization of youtube (CPA Affiliate Ecommerce). Your better off not leaving all your eggs in one basket after doing ALL THIS WORK making the content.




kk,
firstly see above post.
"I think id be worth re uploading BUT look into other ways to monetize BEYOND the monetization of youtube (CPA Affiliate Ecommerce). Your better off not leaving all your eggs in one basket after doing ALL THIS WORK making the content."

You need to learn at least two other was you can USe the traffic to make money from yout videos OUTside of yotuubes basic hand out.
Learn a new traffic monetization method and or start a Joint Venture here on BHW to do it for u.
Im more than sure a lot of guys would love to try and match there monetization with your traffic. (take care to make sure there method matches your niche type)
People love traffic and you have it!
so your not in a bad place your in a New place. thats all.

As per all these RULE changes. ITs like the WEATHER just cause a fire burns down your neighbors house it doesnt mean you should be Worrying about the next fire 24/7.
in other words. Get over it and let go of things out of your conrtrol. Then think two step ahead and think. IF THIS DOES HAPPEN I still ahve this this and this in place.
Hence my suggestion you monetize your content other wise.

As a third note, BRANDING, you can keep your anonymity and still Brand your content. Make a fun fake name and publish content under that brand,
If you need branding help i'm sure the Marketplace would be able to help you. or if you super stuck your can om me. (also see the tiktok niche on youtube for examples)

How?
Basicly get a logo get a name, get an opening and closing for all your content.
Mores so WHY we Brand:
we do this To PUSH the Fan base and traffic to multiple platforms INCASE one goes DOWN. If pew die pie lost his channel tomorrow He wouldnt care. Why?
He has all his social platforms and his own personal website where all his veiwers would jump over to.
same thing with your stuff.

LASTLY
the new video.
In my exp. youtube sees videos as there own personal individual piece >when it come to ranking>>>> Only in part.
If a channel uploads a topic that is similar to a previous video, you bet it trusts that content a Bit more then it normally would.

Just know youtube remembers so yes you (even using the same channel) started a new air qoute "Series of content" on yout channel when you changed content types
So you got less juice. Das normal man.

If Cartoonnetwork suddenly went into Documents they would have the same hit, youtube algo or no youtube.

Either way all this doesn't matter that much in your case those< focus on Strong content and learn those new ways to monetize. or get a Jv going.
GL man GL

Personal Note*
that message looked like it took you ten years towrite up.
Keep it short and simple on BHW, I learned that lesson personally trust me

my change was not like cartoonnetwork uploading "Documents" (whatever this means). I made for a video using the same videogame, just another topic/style = result = no watcthime, im doomed to do the same niche over and over again and the variation must happen within this subniche inside the game, my channel has become that, that is how ti grew.

i cannot do branding, im not pewdiepie. im f*cked without ad revenue. kids don't click on shit if you aren't a personality that has a cult following. for instance, look at this guy making animations:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCeHnMjq-57OMVKj9Rqb9lA/videos

This guy makes around 3 million views on average per month. Since when you make animations you cant upload too often, it is what it is, but once videos rank, you still get decent amount of views while you work on the next video.

with millions of views, you can't do any branding with that type of content. people watch it and leave. you don't have an original character or anything... it's using mostly other famous characters to rank.

don't be deluded man. I have a channel similar to this traffic, people don't click, people don't follow you on social media. just look at this:

https://www.instagram.com/tusharkd.official/

he has 275k followers on youtube and 40 followers on instagram.. this is the reality of things here

unless you are mega huge and have an original character that you can sell or something.. it's pretty much pointless. channels like those, we need ad revenue, without adsense its over. no one will click on your links, on your patreon, or whatever. this niche is about adsense. putting logos and intros and outros will not magically make you a brand.

i wonder what is everyone going to do next year. the FTC is going to hit your ass with $42,000 fee per video if you dont check the "this is children targeted" box and they come and see the video and decide it is children targeted, so they are basically treatening anyone that makes content that could be watching by kids to turn on that box and pretty much kill your own channel. fuck this fucking whole thing.

You have a case of waht is known as the Negative Nancy's. It's a sister disease to the Chicken Pox.
Once you feel negative you feel the need to scratch at it till your bleeding from the epidermis.

What you need to do is take a break, go for a walk in the forest and BREATH.
Then when you dont feel like " Fuck it all"
read the forums here and yo'll find users with much larger accounts than my own saying the same thing
"The money on youtube is in how you wield the traffic"


Personal note*
you dont HAVE to do branding "though i think anything is brandable"
You could do an affiliate link offer, eCommerce offer, or even a basic CPA offer.
Its about tweaking your content to get 15% of your viewers to take the NEXT STEP.

Good floop loouck

I follow the popular 10 second rule.
As long as the clip is under 10 secs YouTube won't ping you.

As per your example is were you get into the loop holes of it all.

If you're taking the content from a content creator who does not have heavy copyright abilities such as Tik-Tok content creators twitch content creators or yes even fitness consecrators then yes you would be fine using their content in a mix like you speak of.
But if you're using Disney movies Nintendo video games or yes music videos you enter the realm of heavy monitoring.

The direct answer to your question would be yes based on a percentage.
well-protected copyrighted content ?
than your chance or percentage of getting dinged will be low.

ripping together 8 Disney movies? I seriously doubt you're going to monetize anything.

On a personal note
Alas I would suggest that you previous answers I have given and look to monetize your videos in ways beyond YouTube's handouts seeking a joint venture what other ways of monitoring as listed above.

But hey who knows! Test a play.

dude, I understand what you mean, but believe me, my content doesn't work with affiliate links or anything like that, again, you will find no one in this niche making money outside of adsense ad revenue:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCeHnMjq-57OMVKj9Rqb9lA/videos

or any relevant money at all, outside peanuts

find me one, just ONE fucking guy making a living out of money out of alternative mediums that arent youtube with that similar content

the problem is you are not familiar with this type of traffic, you havent felt it. im trying to explain to you, this shit doesnt work with this type of audience, you rely on the ad revenue, anything outside of adsense with this type of traffic is just a small bonus, talk to anyone that is actually making money out of this traffic and they will agree with me, it's easy to talk when you aren't involved with this traffic and know what it can deliver

now, you could try to go on camera, and try to become a meme/personality cult (losing your anonymity in the process which is a problem for me) and try to get the kids watching to go to your affiliate stuff... but guess what, the guidelines are changing, and doing that is going to be forbidden, pretty sure this will be the case for young audiences

what we need to do is to stop this demonic law from ruining innocent creators, even lawyers agree this is nonsense:

and watch these:

we have to stop this law, leave a comment on the FTC website:

https://www.regulations.gov/comment?D=FTC-2019-0054-0001


all those channels are dead, out of business, without adsense, and kids will end up watching inappropriate content because everyone else left since who wants to risk $42,000 fees per video

What’s your “ritual” for when you first post a new video? Do you do any marketing methods such as posting it to other places? I read that you do SMM panels sometimes or did I misunderstand. If so, which SMM panel do you use or if you can’t disclose, what services of that SMM panel do you use for a brand new video?

BeingEric said:

Hi

I enjoyed read all your answer.. thanks for answering everyone's question.

I have some question..

do you think text to speech video gets ypp monetised or not?

Does any form of text to speech video is consider as automation or is there exception?

If someone uses his own script with text to speech. Does youtube will accept his ypp monetisation?

TacoTiger said:

Great points. I would steer AWAY from copyrighted content as much as possible. In my personal experience, you can bend all the other YouTube rules, just don't touch copyrighted content! YouTube is liable for such huge copyright lawsuits they just don't mess with that.

Takurah, thank you for all the other great info in this thread.

TacoTiger said:

I really see your point and i don't know what they were thinking.

YouTube creators make high quality videos for kids => they make $$$ with AdSense
**COPPA comes**
YouTube creators get their AdSense revenue slashed in half (or more) and have to find other resources of revenue or close.
Other resources:
1) Brands selling to kids
2) State resources, NGOs, donors or individual viewers (parents)
3) Sales of merch

So suddenly, you go from good quality content that didn't have a need for too much sponsored products added into the videos, to a situation where EVERY video will have to be some sort of a sponsored video or trying to sell you something extra, since it lost so much revenue.

On the other hand, it would be interesting to see if and how YouTube compensates for the lack in traffic since there will be no notifications and if they will push harder the "for kids" compliant channels.
