Best Partner to Protect Channel from Strikes etc?

[Windmill]

Hey guys,

So I have a YouTube channel. It has 3,425 subscribers and 235,192 views. I get around 1300-1600 views a day. I monetize it through affiliate marketing and not being a partner. I don't really want to partner, because I don't want ads tainting my videos... but now that my channel is making significant money for me, I want to protect it. It is in good standing but a few months ago I had a scare where I got a community strike (and successfully appealed it).

My channel is in finance/business. What partner is best for me? I've tried reading about them, but I haven't seen anything centered around this, most people focus purely on the money. I'm making money by myself... I just want a partner to protect my channel from YouTube taking it away.

Thanks!

As long as you are creating your own content, it is very unlikely that you need to worry.

Running into the arms of a network won't stop you from getting strikes.

Also what do you mean by "affiliate marketing"? If you are placing affiliate links either in your videos or your videos' descriptions you are already risking YouTube suspending your channel for guidelines violations; and even a network can't save you from that. A network will see those links if you apply for membership, and deny you as a video spammer.
