YouTube giving 100 million dollars to the shorts makers
Over the past few years, the largest social media platforms have been pouring money behind the creators. The companies are spending this money mainly to keep the makers connected to the platform and to attract a large audience. Following this, YouTube has started distributing 100 million US dollars allocated for the makers of shorts.
Last month, YouTube announced a $100 million fund for developers as the platform's new shorts format was launched in more than a hundred countries. The fund was launched on Tuesday. At the same time, it has been informed how the creators will get this money.
Earlier this year, YouTube announced its plans. Thousands of eligible makers will be able to apply for this fund throughout the year 2022 from now on under this program. A 100 to 10 thousand dollars will be paid depending on how many viewers are watching the shorts video and on some more metrics.
Anyone who uploads short content can come under this program. That's why you don't have to be a member of the YouTube Partner Program, which was launched about 14 years ago.
To get this money, creators must adhere to YouTube's Community Guidelines and Copyright Policy. YouTube does not want videos uploaded to Snapchat or TickTock to be uploaded. Therefore, content with watermarks or logos of any other social network will not be covered under this program. This payment will be made every month so that the creators have to make new shorts.
