YouTube Expands Monetization To More Types of Content
https://www.searchenginejournal.comYouTube is allowing ads to run on more types of content, which will expand the monetization opportunities for content creators. Creators will now be able to earn revenue on content that previously wasn’t considered suitable for advertisers.
YouTube is now allowing more types of content to be fully monetized instead of partially monetized.
Creators that are part of the YouTube Partner Program can immediately tell if a video is eligible for full or partial monetization by looking at the color-coded icons in YouTube Studio.
- Green icon: Video is eligible to earn full revenue.
- Yellow icon: Video will display limited or no ads.
- Red icon: Video is ineligible for monetization.
- Grey icon: Monetization has been manually turned off by the creator.
Changes will apply to the following types of content.
- Educational Content
- Controversial Issues
- Adult Humor
- Profanity
