YouTube new monetization policy

Just another case of being screwed by the big wigs

My videos allowed me to buy some new tech and make more videos. I was only making $50/month but it was better than nothing. Now us little guys won’t have much impact anymore.
I have the first criteria of 4000 hours but since my channel only has 133 subs I will no longer make any money.
First I got screwed by Amazon and now You Tube :unamused:

Aww that sucks. Knowing all the problems that they are having and how frustrated people like you and even much larger YouTube creators are getting, I wouldn’t be surprised if a new competitor pops up soon. Hopefully that will give people like yourself another option for posting videos (and creating income) or it will make YouTube realize they need to get their act together and care more for the unique community they have created.

Regardless goodluck!

It does really suck. Pretty discouraging also.

That sucks and sorry you have to deal with this. A friend of mine is also going through this but he reached out on Twitter and managed to get enough hours and subs…maybe try that and call them out on Twitter? See if you can get the subs required

Thanks for the idea but as 50+ year old my twitter has less followers than my Youtube, lol
Too bad I didn’t belong to a forum with lots of members who would subscribe, :wink:

Happy to help and subscribe, nothing wrong with promoting your reviews source (a few others have already tagged their’s into reviews on here, might be wise doing the same on yours going forward to get more subs :smile:) ;

Subbed. :slight_smile: This really sucks. And yet, people doing idiotic things on youtube are getting paid the big moolah. What is this world coming to?

Sorry to hear that! :confounded: I was already subscribed, but I wish I could subscribe again!
However, the word on the street is that Amazon is creating a YouTube competitor: https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/amazon-youtube-competitor/

That is sad. Maybe Youtube has a tool where you can buy subs and so they want to get more money.

Professional reviews, lol, I look like a hit man in the photo with my skull and crossbones t shirt and camping jacket. :fearful: Thanks man! I appreciate the shout out from everyone! :sunglasses:

I know right? Maybe I should do a clothing try on, not! :scream:

Done. Hopefully, you will be able to get enough subs to break over the threshold.

You never know, that might boost your subs :stuck_out_tongue: Hahahaha.

Are you a hit man? Just asking for when I need one…

I subbed when I saw your video about your solar setup in your camper when I messaged you with a few questions! :wink:
