Shorts watch time does not count toward overall channel watch time. That has been frustrating, especially for smaller scale creators on the platform. The monetization update doesn't change that fact but it does make it easier to accept.
How much YouTube pay for 1,000 Shorts views? Depending on factors such as the content of the video and the country of origin of your audience, YouTube pay up to $3 per 1,000 views for their new Shorts feature.
1. How much do YouTubers earn in India for 1 million views? YouTube is estimated to pay Rs 53.46 for every 1000 views in India. This indicates that for every 1 million views, YouTube pays Rs 53460.
Watch time is the total accumulated amount of time people have spent watching your video on YouTube. YouTube has confirmed that Watch Time is an important part of their search and discovery algorithm. It's also important to point out that Watch Time is different than Audience Retention.
One of the requirements used to be that you had to get 4,000 public watch hours on your content within the past 12 months. Starting in October 2022, Shorts counted toward that number. As of January 2023, though, that's no longer the case, according to the YouTube Partner Program overview & eligibility support page.
BUT the watch time generated by YouTube Shorts, especially if they're served to viewers via the Shorts shelf, will not count towards your 4,000 hours needed. So keep creating Shorts if that's the kind of content you love to do, but remember they won't contribute to an increase in watch time.
As long as you have at least 1,000 subscribers and 10 million Shorts views in the past 90 days, you can monetize your YouTube Shorts through the platform's ad revenue-sharing program.
If you want to monetize Shorts specifically, here's how to do that through the YPP: Gain 1,000 subscribers and 10 million public Shorts views in the last 90 days. Gain 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 public watch hours on your long-form videos. Once you're in the program, only eligible Shorts will earn advertising revenue.
YouTube will pay 45% of the net revenue from YouTube Premium that is allocated to monetizing creators for Shorts. A portion of YouTube Premium revenues are allocated to help cover costs of music licensing.
YouTube Shorts is a new way for creators to make money on YouTube. You get paid per 1,000 views on your YouTube Shorts. If you have a lot of views on your YouTube Shorts, you can earn up to $24 per 1,000 views. If you have just a few views on your YouTube Shorts, you can still earn $0.10 per 1,000 views.
Depending on engagement on their Shorts, creators could see bonuses anywhere between $100 and $10,000.
Using Forbes's estimated pay rate of $5 per 1,000 views for “top” talent, a YouTube video with 1 million views can make upward of $5,000, which makes being a modern-day social media influencer a pretty lucrative job.
CPM rates can range widely, but a common estimate is around $0.25 to $4 per 1,000 views. So, with 20,000 views, you might earn anywhere from $5 to $80.
One of the best parts of YouTube Shorts is that your Shorts content can be vastly different from your long-form videos, and using both video formats in tandem can help each part of your channel grow. Short-form videos can be more casual and less polished than long-form videos.
You can monetize your YouTube channel only if it has 1000 subscribers or 4000 watch hours in the last 12 months. How do you get these numbers? Nothing is out of reach except that you won't be able to monetize your content.
YouTube's Partner Program now allows Shorts creators to join and earn money from their content. To join the program, you must meet one of the following requirements: Have 1,000 subscribers and 10 million eligible public Shorts views in the last 90 days.
It means YouTube Shorts and Clips can now generate much more value for your channel. Not only can you use short-form video to create countless opportunities for attracting viewers and subscribers but you can also incorporate direct links between short-form and long-form video.
But YouTube Shorts will not count towards long-form YouTube content. The vast gap between the two forms of media makes sense as Shorts often have repeat views and can reach more users as it takes less time to watch.
Achieving 4,000 watch hours can be a bit of a time investment. Keeping an average of 20,000 minutes of views each month may take up to a year to reach this goal. It's worth noting that YouTube considers the watch hours across the videos, so it is possible to hit this mark with either one or multiple videos.
On average, a YouTuber earns around $0.18 per view, which means they make $18 per every 1,000 video views.
Several factors determine how much you can earn from YouTube. Video creators get paid per click on in-video and banner ads. So you could get 10,000 views or 10,000 views and make $100. It depends on how relevant the ads are to your audience and whether they click or ignore them.
