As the question states.

I thought it would be smarter to ask partnered youtubers.

Salaries in the EU are a lot smaller then in the US. Getting 100k/yr after taxes is basically impossible with a job(unless you are a politician or a ceo). So according to this youtube adsense will probably pay way less in the EU then in the US.

But by how much? What is the Rpm or Cpm like in europe?

(not a youtuber just a curious bored guy)

Edit: your*

Been doing this full time for about 6 years and never had this notification. I was under the impression youtube did this anyway so im just wondering if this is some sort of problem occurring with my traffic or if I'm just being made aware of common knowledge.

All my youtube studio banners and tutorials seem to get reset on a regular basis so I don't know if this is just some new notification I shouldn't be seeing or if I actually have a problem with my traffic but I'm very concerned lol.

My channel was hacked and idk how they got in. I have passkeys setup and recovery emails and phone numbers. The hackers privated all my videos and started posted Ripple livestreams on my page.

I haven't clicked on any strange links or downloaded anything so and my PC was turned off last night. So I also wanna know what other ways could they have gotten in?

From what I saw, they added thier burner Email to my YT channel using the permissions settings. But how come there was no notification sent to me beforehand, because I had to do 2 step verification to remove them?

Hello! Not sure where to place this but I have an incredibly narcissistic and abusive ex who is fairly large on th platform and he posts Roblox / Ai Generated videos for kids to indulge in which he has amassed over 4M+ followers throughout the multiple accounts that he has.

We haven't spoken in months after he laid his hands on me and I stayed off of social media to heal. I did report it to the police, I have videos, pictures and have documented all the interactions he's tried to have with me. Recently he tried to contact me through a discord server of a friend of mine who happens to be a YouTuber and has filed a false copyright claim to my friend using my first and last name (not my full legal name) along with an email he created to falseify my likeness. How do I go about reporting this to YouTube to get my friends copyright claim removed and to get my exes YouTube banned or potentially his IP banned from YouTube.

My ex has also been exposed on YouTube very publicly by Timeworks for using bots.

I’ve had 2 decently performing videos posted with a Christmas theme. They both kind of fell off unexpectedly considering their stats were good/well performing/going up and it’s edging closer to the holiday. I decided to change the title and remove “Christmas” and replace it with “holiday” and this is what happened to both of them………….

Thoughts?

I have a much bigger following on Facebook than I do on YouTube, and when I post my YouTube videos to Facebook they do get more views. But I have since stopped doing this because I wanted the YouTube algo to pick up my videos on its own.

Plus, views from Facebook may hurt the channel if they click right off.

But what are your thoughts about this? Post to Facebook anyway? Or don’t bother?

Hi everyone so basically I got suspended from monetization and can't even see the status bar that shows how close you are to being able to fully monetize on youtube.

I got a community guidline strike and was told I would be barred from monetization ability for 3 months. Now that 3 months have passed I am still barred and have no clue how to contact youtube. It seems that there isn't a way to talk to youtube.

Advice would be greatly appreciated.

This is a pretty stupid question, but do I have to add the disclaimer every time I reply to a comment with a link? There's a clear disclaimer in the video description, but if someone asks, "Hey, what's that baking pan you used in the video?" it's a missed opportunity not to reply with an affiliate link. However, adding the disclaimer makes the reply sound a bit robotic. I like to have a friendly, conversational tone with my audience, and adding "This is an affiliate link, which means I may earn a small commission if you purchase through it" every time seems like a turn off.

What's your approach to this?

I've recently been running vertical livestreams that do very well for my standards before completely crashing.

When starting stream the concurrent viewers gradually climb to ~100, hover around there for a bit and then gradually fall to only a few viewers. Can anyone explain this behavior? I'm streaming the same content throughout the stream, and when restarting the stream I start gaining viewers again until the exact same behavior occurs. A few days ago I was doing the same thing but the viewers were consistent, so I'm lost on what went wrong.

salut tout le monde,

j'aimerais savoir pourquoi lorsque je publie une short video le soir à 19h la vidéo fait quelques vues, mais est propulsée seulement le lendemain, souvent le soir.

et pourquoi malgré un trés bon rapport affichage dans le flux/vue, elles sont souvent arrétées entre 500 et 700 vues.

Quelqu'un a une idée ?

Merci.

I applied for AdSense for my YouTube channel six days ago, but the status still shows 'In Progress' in YouTube Studio. Has anyone else experienced this issue, or does anyone have a solution or advice on how to resolve it?

I have been editing my own pod, a few YouTube videos, and IG Reels/Tiktoks. It’s been great but I need to hire someone to help me publish these awesome pod episodes. I’m so backed up on filmed content!

I have a day job, a wife with a handicap, a mom with a handicap, and a four year old son. And I’m trying to write my next book.

Someone on here recently said that hiring an editor is the greatest ROI in this space.

What do y’all recommend? Are there killers on Fiverr and Upwork that do reasonable pricing per episode / video? Do you recommend monthly retainer editor / agency? Just curious what the content to pricing relationship looks like for the pros here and where you’re finding editors.

Hi everyone, @ brother of heaven

Here is my youtube channel, for context, i have 4 videos all my own english translation for Sikhism holy scripture - Guru Granth Sahib. I just had a few questions hopefully you guys can answer for me:

1. Can my background of my videos be the same? I like the simplicity of my background and no animations or effects. This helps the focus to be on the translations.
2. Does it matter the layout of the translations? As i dont want Youtube to see it as "templated" but there is no other way around it. If that is the standardised way of presenting the scripture.
3. With my graphics being my own, the translations verse by verse being by my own hand, is that unique enough? As im adding value where my audience cant get elsewhere and that is presented in there comments of thankfulness and gratitude for the content i post thus far.

I do mostly evergreen education videos, but the last couple of days my views have been dropping from 5.000 per 48 hours to under 2.300 views per 48 hours

Viewers comes mostly from google search. Ive never had a drop like this before

Has anyone experienced this before?

Been reading this subreddit silently for a while, and wanted to share some of my YouTube stats for the year. This is part of a longer post where I also share my blog traffic and my newsletter subscriber numbers.

Youtube

Earlier this year, I felt inspired to create some new YouTube content. I was surprised at just how well it was received. I mostly just turned existing blog posts into videos and tutorials, but created a few stand alone videos, too.

I started the year at 1,410 subscribers, and it grew to almost 6,400 by the end of 2024.

https://dannb.org/images/blog/2024/12/dannb-2024-youtube-subscribers.jpg

I started the year without monetization, since it had been a few years since I last uploaded a video. In order to re-join the YouTube Partner Program (YPP), my channel needed to meet the following eligibility requirements:

• 1,000+ subscribers
• 4,000 public watch hours in the past 12 months

I had the subscribers, but not the watch hours activity. I hit that watch-hours threshold in April, and flipped on monetization the moment it was available.

So, what sort of money does a channel like mine make? Let’s take a look at the chart:

https://dannb.org/images/blog/2024/12/dannb-2024-youtube-earnings.jpg

Estimated revenue from 2024 was just shy of $600. The daily average was just over $2, with some days peaking as high at $5. Not bad!

I think my upload schedule is also worth detailing here, as well. I uploaded a total of 16 videos in 2024. The first was published January 30th and the last one of the year on May 20th. I averaged about one per week during that timeframe, but lost steam in the entire last-half of the year. So, it’s pretty cool that I continued to get views and earn money despite being inactive for the past six months.

If I had kept up the momentum, I’m sure those numbers would be much higher. But YouTube is more a hobby for me than a career. I like making videos when I have something to say or teach, and it felt weird to try and force myself to film topics just to push our more content.

I'm a small channel with only 1.6k subs and my uploads have been slower recently due to work, however I went to check on my earnings tab today and it has disappeared with no monetisation options for any of my videos including ones that were previously monetised.

I am well above the 500 sub count and 3000 public watch hours, but apparently there is now a new requirement to upload 3 videos in 90 days? The last gap between my videos was 6 months and I was not affected then, so why has this only come a month after posting a new video?

Can anyone please confirm if there was a change in terms and why I am apparently no longer partner? I do not remember this 90 day requirement affecting me before.

Everybody tends to say “YouTube isn’t forever, think about future employment” — but if the internet isn’t going away soon, neither will the creator ecosystem.

Out of all industries, it doesn’t rely on local economies and is destined to persist as long as there are humans scrolling stuff. Hopefully in next decades we’ll get to see YouTube’s competitors emerging too.

It’s up to how genuine you are as a creator, just don’t feel career-wise it’s that bad as a job?

I’m sitting at over 1.000 subs and about 3600 watch hours. I’m hoping to get there before new year, but it has already taken all year. And advice for that last little push? I don’t have any new videos plant or filmed and might not get that before new year (Christmas is packed)

Channel name is HGSoftware

Thanks in advance!

So this reaction video I made in 2023 just now got a copyright thing on it and the video is blocked in some countries and/or regions. How do people who actually do reaction videos get away with this? Was trying to add the image but reddit wouldn't let me.

A big video of mine (800k views, 13 min) got copyright striked and taken down because of 3 seconds that I took from a twitch stream. Afaik they have the full right to strike here. It's their content after all. It's the result of me being a little sloppy about these things when the channel was young and not monetized. I talked to them before and offered to delete their part, but they refused. Most people I featured in the video (with timestamps and Twitch links) were very happy about the free advertisement for their stream.
The video is a curated compilation of twitch clips of streamers playing a game.

Is there anything I can do to reinstate this video?
I would happily delete their part, but I can't enter the Editor.

Or will it just come down to re-uploading the video with more care?

I'm having an issue with views. I have a channel in a specific niche. 130k subs, posting 20-30 min videos once a week, and new videos get an average of 30-70k views on the first week.

I also do some podcast-like monthly videos which will get only 5-10k views but are useful for community building.

Does the low views of the podcast video hurt the channel overall? Should they be moved to a second channel? I know that's the sort of thing people do, but is there any evidence it actually works?

So first off I’m aware that if you use any type of content from a TV show or movie you risk being claimed. I’m just curious about the automated system that tells me my video is fine, then copyrights it later on (without the video being live, it’s not manual)

Lately I’ve been uploading videos, and they passed copyright checks, I schedule them for the next day, within 5-10 hours some of them have gotten copyright claimed.

Why did they pass the initial checks if they weren’t good? Is YouTube automatically screening my videos every hour? Is there a “safe” amount of time until I can make my video public?

Sorry for the wall of text, google has been completely useless with this information

Got an email today from Youtube with a private video attached. I can't attach the screenshots so I'll just put the video description here.

I'm not sure why some jerk on this sub was so convinced that the only reason YouTube would ad limit my videos a few minutes after they went live was because someone was getting notifications and reporting my videos. No matter what I said he swore it was the only explanation possible.

Well what I tried to explain to him just happened again. I had a video as unlisted. At 11:24pm I changed it to be published at 11:30pm. Well at 11:28pm I looked at my YouTube studio and it was ad limited. This happens all the time to me. It seems like any change I make, this includes changing from unlisted to unscheduled causes the bot to look at my video again. It normally happens between 3 - 5 minutes after I make a change. So I never hit publish because that could cause one of my videos to be as limited or age restricted minutes after it's published.

I just wish I could force all of my videos to go through a human review and not have to deal with YouTube constantly changing its mind.

Edit: And in the time it took to get annoyed and write this post 10 minutes. Now my video is no longer ad limited. YouTube you are full of shit. I know damn well a human didn't look at my video in ten minutes.

I'm building a translation/localization SAAS that takes video then outputs a version with your own voice speaking another language with the correct lip movement.

I'm trying to stand out with my offering so a cool feature I was thinking of adding is automatic localization with your content, so for example if you're talking about a famous singer in a general manner, "I wish I could sing like Adele" but you want to translate it for the Chinese population, it would convert to "I wish I could sing like G.E.M. (famous Chinese female singer)".

This would ensure your relatability and connection with your viewers is portrayed as you intend and not obstructed by a cultural gap.

Would this be an innovative feature to add? It feels like the one missing aspect in translation services, sure you can translate the words but the cultural gap still leaves a missing link between the intended meaning,

We have a client making family mukbang. They don't eat excessive amount! Just regular portion with restaurant reviews. We avoid showing any alcoholic beverages (even in the menu) and we don't really see any other issues. Yet, recent videos are all getting terms & policies violations. I was going over the Google policies on the content with children and it mentions about working in the night time. This family mukbang is usually shot in the dinner time. Could that be the reason?

I got two strikes on my channel an year ago and I was wondering what if I get another strike right now?

Does the selected country of my YouTube Channel needs to match my real country? I don't like that YouTube shows my country and there's no option to hide it so I wanted to choose a random country instead...

Is this a problem if I want to be partnered or it doesn't matter at all? My Adsense would have my real country but my YT channel would have a random one.

i have a roblox channel that i’ve been trying to grow for the past 2 years or so. Recently i’ve come into an issue that, if any character models overlap in the video, my video is striked with sexual content and nudity. no matter how many times i appeal or explain this to twitter, they insist that character models overlapping in a children’s video game is nudity. I am not the first creator this has happened to. i personally know 3 people who’ve had there roblox youtube channels terminated, and many more who keep getting false strikes over this. I’ve only seen 1 person ever successfully win this battle, and it was only after getting a bunch of attention and basically forcing youtube’s hand. it’s gotten to the point that i have to put a massive black square censoring any characters touching AT ALL, to avoid another strike. The worst part is, that youtube does nothing about actual sexual content / nudity, EVEN for videos that are targeting children. I am curious to know if anyone else has this problem with their content, or a similar one like this one.

Two of the biggest videos on my channel have content claims against them, and are ineligible for monetization. (The music tracks are from Pixabay and I released these videos before I got monetized, so I had no idea at the time they were "eligible to be shown" but not "eligible to be monetized". Live and learn).

Today I just learned YouTube has an "Erase Song" feature that supposedly removes copyrighted music from your video, but keeps the rest of the audio (such as your voice-over, other sounds, etc.) It seems to be fairly new, they released it a few months ago.

I went into the copyright popup, chose the Erase Song option, and when I clicked the "Preview" button nothing appeared, even after waiting for several minutes (it says it can take 30 seconds). I just get a black frame. I'm not going to commit to this unless I can check out the result and be sure it doesn't ruin the video.

Anyone tried this feature and got it working for them?
