Then why does Youtube stop ALL monetization, they should stop only ad-based monetization to these channels and still allow the channels to be payed out of Youtube Red visits or any other (possible future) types of non-advertising income. This feels shady and short sighted to me and combined with so many other issues disproportionally affecting small channels (like the adpocalypse) it's just one more nail in the coffin of small content creators (note: any big content creator was a small content creator at some point, the question is, would they have ever stuck with Youtube and became what they are if Youtube had all these issues when they started?)
- apendleton 9y agoI think they do only stop ad-based monetization? This post is about revenue from the Youtube Partner Program, which is the advertising monetization program. Content that gets demonetized for other reasons (e.g., queer content) still earns Red revenue, so I imagine this is the same.
- d1zzy 9y agoNope, it seems they will stop all monetization per: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72851?hl=en https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72851?hl=en "The YouTube Partner Program (YPP) lets creators monetize their content on YouTube. Creators can earn money from advertisements served on their videos and from YouTube Red subscribers watching their content." And in order to apply for YPP you just try to enable Monetization per: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72857#apply https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72857#apply The two (YPP and Monetization) seem to be the same thing?
