YouTube has specific criteria to begin monetizing videos. As a beginner, it can be difficult to meet those requirements as you find your niche within the YouTube community. Your uploaded content must be creative enough and view-worthy to attract viewers and subscribers. To begin making money on YouTube, you must be a member of the YouTube Partner Program, which requires the user to have at least 1,000 subscribers and at least 4,000 public watch hours in the last 12 months. To generate more revenue, a YouTuber must manage their account to increase their page's popularity.
