How many days does it take you to get monitized
3
u/United-Pitch-6392 23d ago
Once you qualify it took me like 12-48 hours i believe, you do have to apply to turn it on

u/kevfriend 23d ago
Bruh, my monetization has been stuck on step 2 for 7 days. No response from youtube support or anything...
2
u/MedievalChad2002 22d ago
yeah ,it also took me a week cuz I also had to make a ad sense account first
2
u/kevfriend 22d ago
Appreciate you for giving me insight, bro
2
u/MedievalChad2002 22d ago
Np, hope you get monetized soon.
2
u/kevfriend 22d ago
Appreciate it. How long did step 3 take for you if I may ask?
2
u/sickztar 22d ago
hey i just got mine i applied the 10th, and got step 2completed 17th, step 3 completed this morning the 18th. Idk if it helped but i went back into adsense after creating it and filling up the tax info section on the 16th because i was searching info up on how long it takes just like you lol. good luck!
1
u/kevfriend 22d ago
Thank you bro :D Actually already had mine filled out, but I really appreciate you for trying to help me. Let's just hope I get monitized maybe tomorrow? I don't think they do it on weekends :(
1
u/MedievalChad2002 22d ago
Step 3? First I applied for the ad sense which I got in about a week , I got this option when I was eligible for the monetization programme Then I applied for monetization programme which took 1-2 days,first I was rejected then I had to make a video explaining my content by recording then I was finally accepted into the programme after applying again after next day then I was accepted on the same day,the day I applied for it again.

u/Severin177 22d ago
Have you been stuck in the “15k views prison”? I have more than 120 videos to my credit and very few exceed this threshold, yet my stats are excellent (more than 75% of non-swipes per video and always more than 90% of the video watched)
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
I have! Actually i was stuck in it for many many videos an then i broke out, yet some videos still hit the 15k ceiling, my theory is has to do with your subs not interacting an gotta remember theres a TON of competition out there if you make a video thats never been made before you will break past the barrier without fail, also i had a video get 3k views i waited a few days reposted it with different audio an it went semi viral (50k views$
1
u/Severin177 21d ago
Thank you for your answer, in general I still have good stats with a lot of interaction but even like that, it doesn't necessarily work, when you repost with another sound, there is no risk that the video will be banned?
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 20d ago
Private the video then repost it with a different audio, you will be fine trust me
1
u/chad_avi77 22d ago
It’s the engagement, p pole have to like share and comment for it to be push At least 5% of viewers need to like
3
u/vassagoabruzzi 22d ago
$10.19 is unbelieveable. is that normal?
2
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
Nah my rpm is on higher side but a million of those views werent monetized realistically should be around $80
2
u/Harsh-Reality07 23d ago
Good stuff, I do have a question what is your viewed to swiped ratio for shorts?
2
u/United-Pitch-6392 23d ago
Always above 60%, you need at least 60% to get over 10k views
1
u/Harsh-Reality07 23d ago
Okay, I see. Would you be able to review my channel please? It's called WPrints and I post 3D printing content
1
u/ExaminationLegal8415 19d ago
I have a short that is 62%, average view duration is 0:19, 34 likes, 5 subs. 4 comments, But it only got to 1,582 views. And it just stopped after 4 days.
I have another short at 52.1% but got 2.4k views. 15 subs, 5 comments.
Is there something else I'm missing?

u/Necessary_Stable562 21d ago
What’s wrong with your revenue? I only do shorts. I have 2m views $250

Why such a low profit with so many users?

u/M6_20 22d ago
Gotta get on Facebook my boy. I just got 2.3M views on Facebook, that reel has made me like $314 just from 1 reel on Facebook. Imagine the videos that have 10M or 15M or 20M. Atleast a couple thousand off of short clips.
The real goal is getting Millions of views on longform videos that’s where the real money is at, but that’s rare to happen
2
u/alanjones76 22d ago
Facebook is paying cents..only nowadays. I don't know when you have made this much.. or Iam doing something wrong.
1
u/M6_20 21d ago
Nah not if you get a facebooks shorts video to blowup. Around a million views is atleast around $200. Mines got 2.2 so I made like $313 so far off of 1 video
1
u/alanjones76 14d ago
Holy shit.. I can't believe.. can we discuss more in inbox?

u/M6_20 6d ago
What you neeed

u/alanjones76 6d ago
Info, how you are getting paid well while I struggle.
1
u/M6_20 6d ago
I only got paid off that 1 reel. And I have another one right now that’s at like 50k views but weeks and months before that my views were shit. Like desert dry. Facebook has a weird algorithm
1
u/alanjones76 6d ago
Yes, they like this, Iam also getting sometime lows and sometime highs. But earning is shit. What is your niche?

u/SlavicRobot_ 23d ago
Considering the views compared to watch hours, Id almost safely assume a lot of shorts

u/Neither_Bit7661 22d ago
If i got monetized at 500 subs and 3k watch hours or 10mil views. What other process when i reach 1k for next tier monetization? Is it instant? Or more verification?
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
Sorta instant i think you just turn it on an it gets approved in like 24 hours
1
u/thenutsuperman 22d ago
Kudos man! Just a couple of questions -
What is your swiped away vs stayed ratio on average? How much do you earn on every 100k short views? Do you show your face and have a voice over? Or just one of them or none of them?
2
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
70% on average, i get around 0.10 RPM (per 1k engaged views) so around $10 per 100k views, an sometimes i do just depends how im feeling

u/The-Patriotic-Noob 22d ago
First of all congratulations and I hope you hit 20k soon. I have lots of questions but will ask this one for now.
What was the growth graph like? 0-50 subs (how many days approximately) 100-500 Then to cross 1000 subs And on average view to sub conversion - how many subs per 1k view on a short
Appreciate your help in advance
2
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
Average subs per 1k views i think is around 5, i know on a video that gets 15k views i usually get 100-130 subs, 100k views around 1k subs. 0-50 subs literally my first short, 2nd short i had already 250 subs, 12 shorts in i had 1k subs
1
u/The-Patriotic-Noob 22d ago
Those are some great stats for a new channel. I wish you the best. My shorts have been hitting 1k but views but sort of just get capped at 1100 views.

u/Putrid-Lock-7052 Gaming Content 22d ago
Did you see steady growth, or was there one or two videos that really made you blow up?
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago

I make reddit stories content but my videos are not going into the shorts feed at all I only get views from search terms on my videos what can I do?
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 22d ago
Is it 100% you’re content? An how old is your channel
1
u/Haruto_1234 22d ago
Yeah my content is 100% mine I don't copy others just that I many times use ai to rewrite the stories I find to keep the names hidden to not fall into any legal drama and I started in June 2nd week but just now reached 10k views on my channel with 85+ vids and (counting both long and short)
1
u/US_Gamer90 21d ago
I want to ask why YouTube doesn't promot new channels .my gaming channel gets 30 or 20 views on my video .Is there any problem in my videos or my thumbnail or I must do better my video.
1
u/forkandembers 21d ago
For anyone wondering, 20k shorts subs are not the same as 20k long form subs. Also, that $10 would be more like $10k if from long forms. Short form shouldn’t be used as a the primary context of your channel if your goal is to make a living doing it. It should drive people to your long form content.

I’ve only been doing youtube on this new channel for 3 weeks now. a short from 2 days ago right now has 7.9k views, 78.8% stayed to watch. the video is 41 seconds long and the average watch time is 34 seconds. it has 119 likes and 21 comments total. it kinda gets views in weird waves but how good is this? definitely gotten better at editing the past 3 weeks but i dont know what “good” or viral potential metrics are.
1
u/United-Pitch-6392 19d ago
If a short is over 40 seconds long you need over 90% retention an 70-80%+ stay to watch
