During a conversation on Culture
Daily’s Big Conversation segment

the main we have something
called YPP which is basically
our YouTube Partner
Program and that’s
how people monetize
content – music – any other type of content.
So you have to have minimum of 1000 subscribers,
4000 watch hours.
Once you’ve achieved
that and you’ve
been accepted into YPP, you start monetizing
your content…”
Addy broke
down how the YouTube Partner
Program gives creators
greater access to YouTube resources
and monetization features
and also allows
revenue sharing from ads being served on your content.
She added that “…ads start rolling through your content – because you are in YPP, you’ve put in your AdSense, you’ve put in your bank account and you are getting your money directly that way.”
