If you're a new youtuber who is trying to make money there is bad news.
According to Andy Slye youtube made a policy change last week so from now on you cannot earn money from video ads if your channel has less than 10,000 total views. Its likely that more changes like this could possibly happen in the feature. So all of those who are below 10.000 total views will not be paid until you reach the minimum requirement.
Its yet again just a reminder to all of us that:
You can't be successful on YouTube without first getting views.
And getting a large amount of consistent views is so important.
The reason to why they are doing this is that when they opened their partner program 5 years ago
some people were also creating accounts that uploaded content owned by other people, sometimes big record labels or movie studios and also other popular YouTube creators.
So in an effort to combat these bad actors, they announced this new change to its partner program.
So creators won’t be able to turn on monetization until they hit 10,000 lifetime views on their channel.
YouTube believes that this threshold will give them a chance to gather enough information on a channel to know if it’s legit. And it won’t be so high as to discourage new independent creators from signing up for the service.
Its understandable that they want to eliminate this kind of threat but the solution they have choosed is hitting all of us who tries to make a channel of our own
Just wanted to share this with you guys as it is a pretty big news.
Take care
Best,
