The video sharing website is also a platform for creators to share their own original content.
How Does YouTube Pay Its Content Creators?
YouTube pays its content creators through its YouTube Partner Program (YPP).
It’s important your channel’s content follows YouTube’s Community Guidelines.
A more detailed description of them can be found here.
Not meeting YouTube’s copyright and fair use requirements will also result in losing access to YPP.
