Causal videos are only good enough if they can relate to people who are watching it. So, try to make your videos more interesting.

How to Join the Program

I don’t think joining the program is any difficult. You could go into your YouTube account setting and click on the Monetization Tab. Click on Enable My Account and follow the subsequent steps one by one and join the program.

Now if your account has been enabled for monetization then complete following things.

1. Enable and Disable ads on Your Videos: As your video uploads, in Monetization tab click on “Monetize my Video” check box. You have to choose ad formats which are best for maximizing your earnings. Click save

How to Professionally Create Videos?

For creating a professional video you need to have certain tools at your disposal.

First one is a high quality camera. Always choose a camera with 1080 pixels. It would give you very high quality videos that your audience would love it.

Then you have to focus on the sound quality. You could use external microphones because they are better at capturing good sound videos.

You need to stabilize your camera and it should not be shaking. Otherwise your videos would look completely amateurish. You could use tripod and steadycam to stabilize your videos.

Always learn better shooting techniques and Google could help you in doing that.

Next very important tool is the editing software. Good quality software always allows you to give full control over your videos. You can use special effects to make your videos more professional.

You need to ads logos, animated titles and other special effects to make your videos standout.

For more you could visit the “creators” page of YouTube and know more about tools.

Can You Earn Money from Copied Videos?

Well, you must know that you cannot make money with any kind of copied content. The content that you create must be original and there is no chance of making money with copied videos.

You might have seen many channels on YouTube that uploads videos containing content of some other media groups. Like videos uploaded that has content from news channels like Fox News, ABC, MSNBC, ESPN etc. You cannot make money with those videos because it is copyright violation.

Similarly you cannot upload movie clips or songs and expect to make money with it.

You can only make money if videos are original and created by you.

How Google Pays You: Clicks or Visits?

According to the Google you could earn revenue in following ways

Ads served through the Adsense Auction

Ads that are sold on a reservation basis via DoubleClick and other YouTube Sources

Transactions on YouTube Rentals

For a common video blogger that has joined the YouTube program you could make money depending upon the views that your video receives.

Usually they pay you 1 cent or less than that for a single view. Then if you get a million views for a particular video then you could make anywhere $3000 to $4000 for that video.

Hence, you better start focusing on creating good videos and getting as many as views.

How Much Money Could You Make?

Well as I said earlier you get paid 1/3 cent to 1 cent per view. If you get 1000,000 views X .0033 = $3300 for one video.

So similarly if you create more such videos then you could make up to $10,000 every month. However, you have to be very popular and create some awesome videos.

For me, it is not only about the money but the fame that you get. Even if you don’t make enough money but you are famous then you may get noticed by other popular networks like MTV and mainstream media.

If you reach their then your audience would grow naturally. Hence, you have to focus on creating videos that stands out from the rest.
