Good News | Youtube Shorts Monetization New Update 2023 ?

Science & Technology

Introduction

Welcome back, friends! In this article, I want to share some exciting updates from YouTube regarding Shorts that address many of your common questions and concerns. With the surge of interest in YouTube Shorts, there have been significant developments, especially concerning copyright issues related to music usage and how monetization will work. So, let’s dive into everything you need to know!

Good News About Notifications

First off, let's talk about something that many creators have been waiting for. YouTube will now send notifications to your subscribers when you upload a Short! Previously, notifications for Shorts were not sent out, which led to less visibility for your content. Now, when you upload a Short, your subscribers will be informed just like they are for longer-format videos. This means more chances for your audience to engage with your Shorts!

Monetization Structure

Now, let’s discuss how earning money through YouTube Shorts will work. When you create a Short, there have been updates to the revenue sharing model.

  1. Earnings Without Music: If you create a Short using your own voice without any background music, you'll be eligible to earn 45% of the revenue generated. YouTube will retain the remaining 55%.

  2. Earnings With Music: If you incorporate music directly from the YouTube app, you will still get 45% of the earnings. However, the earnings will be divided among three parties:

    • You (the creator)
    • The original music creator
    • YouTube

    This means that while you can still earn from using music, the revenue will be divided further.

  3. Copyright Issues: If you use music not provided by the YouTube platform (e.g., music from external sources or personal edits), you could face copyright claims. In such cases, you will not earn any revenue, and appropriate actions could be taken against your content.

Upcoming Ads

Another exciting update is that ads will begin running on YouTube Shorts starting February 1st. This allows creators to earn money based on the ads displayed in between Shorts watched by users. For instance, if an ad appears after several Shorts, the earnings from that ad will be divided among the creators of those Shorts, thus providing an additional income source.

Conclusion

In summary, these updates are a game-changer for YouTube Shorts creators. With the new notification system and clearer monetization policies, there are more opportunities than ever for you to grow your presence and income on the platform!
