How To Make Money from YouTube?

Quora Question: How can I make money from YouTube and how does YouTube give money on 1,000 views?

You Tube Monetization

Our Answer: To make money from YouTube, you will need to enable monetization on your channel. 

Steps to monetize:

1. Click on your channel icon at the top left.
2. From the drop-down menu, select Creator Studio.
3. In the left panel now, click on Channel→Status and Features. In the body, you will see Monetization as the second option. Follow the subsequent steps, which will also involve integrating into your AdSense account.
4. You can enable monetization at any time.

Requirement for consideration: Your channel should have at least 10,000 views for YouTube to consider. If approved, YouTube will enroll you in the partner program.

Payment: YouTube pays you on either Cost-Per-Click (CPC) or Cost-Per-View (CPV). That totally depends on the condition the advertiser has set. So, the viewer’s CTA (call to action) matters. Either they click on the ad link or, they watch the video for a minimum of 5 seconds to up to around 25–30 seconds. Usually, you will see YouTube has a lock in time of 5 seconds before you skip the video. It all depends on customer engagement. Now, the ads too will be of two types: banner ads or video ads. The payment varies accordingly for each format too. So, there is no fixed amount you will lift per one thousand views. The dollar payments are adjusted according to the currency exchange rates of the respective country.

How you can drive more traffic for free:

1. Post ‘Useful’ content.
2. Use relevant title.
3. Use right tags for high searchability.
4. Post regularly.
5. Post the link on most platforms possible: FB, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr, Blog, Website Articles, Google+, and wherever.
6. Repeat the link posts after a few days.
7. Create playlists.

If money is not a problem, AdSense will get you targeted traffic.

Firm footing in the digital arena presently requires intense and regular work. Revenue generation takes quite a long time, depending upon the type of content and the mode you adapt to proliferate your channel. Patience and diligence are the keys.

Hope this gives you some idea. Good luck!
