Hey guys i'm so excited because I am now
monetized! I can now have ads
on my videos and make some money. Now I
know ads can get a bit annoying but it
is a way for me to continue to provide
great value to you guys for free
and I'm so encouraged because I just
watched this YouTuber
Graham Stephen and he made a million
dollars in one year from just ad revenue.
So I know that my earning potential with
YouTube is great because my thought
process
is if he can do it then so can I, why not?
And if you guys are watching this video
and you're a YouTuber let me know in
the comment section below or
if you're just thinking about it or
you're on the fence I want to know about
that too
because one of the things that I want
you guys to know is that one of my
biggest fears is to actually be in front
of the camera
or speak in front of people because like
my words they just don't come out right
and I've done so many takes and
whenever I do these videos I'm
constantly doubting myself and I'm just
saying like you know, I should just quit
or
I keep like stumbling over my words like
i'm doing right now
and then I just say okay just forget it
but then I just keep going at it because
i see people like this making a million
dollars per year
and I know that the only way for me to
get there too is to get over my fears
and just get started
and continue to create content. I can
constantly give myself excuses on why i
should not post a video
but that would not get me closer to my
goal and continuing to just build wealth
for me and my family so for those of you who
may have watched my video on my five
sources of income as a stay-at-home mom
of three
I now have a sixth one! If you guys want
to watch that video
definitely check it out to like
understand fully how I've been able to
build a six-figure business in under two
years being a stay-at-home mom and now
three. I just had a baby four months
ago. So in this video I want to show you
three ways I was able to get my channel
monetized in five short months
and number three to me has been the most
effective way that I was
able to get more subscribers and more
watch time which
I actually need to explain this first
how you get monetized on your channel is
that you first need to have
a thousand subscribers, so thank you for
everyone who subscribed to my channel
and you have to have 4,000 hours of
watch time within that given year.
Okay let's get started and make sure you
guys stay tuned for tip number three
because
I think that was really the game changer
and how I was able to get my channel
monetized
and just so you guys know that is a youtube
tip, you want people to watch your videos
all the way until the end because the
longer that they watch
in YouTube's eyes the better because
just so you guys know
there's a YouTube split in the amount
that you earn with your ad revenue it's
a 45
55 split which means that youtube gets
45
of the ad revenue and i keep 55
so we kind of share this together, we're
partners in this so when I upload videos
and
YouTube sees that people are watching my
videos for a long time
they say hey this is really good they
want to make more money because the more
ads I have in my video the better so
they want to push these videos
out there and the more people that are
watching my videos the more
money I make and YouTube makes so just
keep that in mind when you're doing your
videos, you want to give them a reason to
watch until the very end
because the more people that will see
your videos the more money you'll make
so anyway, let's go ahead and get started
Now the number one reason I think that I was
able to get my channel monetized so
quickly
was because I had a plan. When I realized
that I wanted to start a YouTube channel
I did my research on YouTube, there are a
ton of YouTubers giving out great free
valuable information
on how to grow your YouTube channel and
the things that you need to
incorporate and one of the things that
was a game changer was learning
SEO now SEO is Search Engine
Optimization
and that is a way to use keywords or
find out what queries or
questions people are asking on YouTube
and then
answering those questions so I want to
give you an example. Just so you guys
know, I know SEO like the back of my hand
but I know it for Google. I know how to
write articles that will actually
rank on Google for free but YouTube is a
whole nother game they do things a lot
differently. So I downloaded this tool
called Tube Buddy which is a
SEO tool to help me figure out what
questions or things that people are
searching for so I can answer them with
my videos and get found in search.
So for example if you type in work from
home jobs for moms
I did a video on that and actually it
was my very first video that I did in
person or just like speaking
in front of the camera and I'm telling you
guys I cannot
stand that video, but it is number one or
number two it changes often but
if you actually search in YouTube work
from home jobs for moms you will find my
video at the
number one spot or the number two spot
or the third one. The reason this is so
important is because whenever someone
searches for
work from home jobs your moms they're
probably going to click on my video
which means i'm getting a consistent
flow of people that are watching my
video
because I am now in search. I am now
showing up in the search results
when people are searching for work from
home jobs for moms and another
I have a ton of other videos now that
are beginning to rank and I think the
more that YouTube knows what your
channel is about the more
they understand that this video should
be placed up higher in the search
results for this search term or whatever.
So anyway I highly recommend to
understand and learn SEO. There are a ton
of YouTube videos out there
but specifically for YouTube on how you
can do well and how you can
actually answer those questions and show
up in the search results. So that has
been the first way that I've been able
to get
people watching my videos, subscribing
and getting me my watch time that i
needed to meet that 4,000 hour
criteria. The second one is that I've
been consistent
ever since that I started my YouTube
channel I have been posting one video
every single week. The one thing you hear
a lot of YouTubers saying
is that you need to be consistent if
you're gonna do well on YouTube so
because of that the more videos that I
post the more actual people are watching
and finding me
and the more watch time that I get so as
you can see it's like a formula, the more
videos you post the more people actually
watch them
if they like me they'll subscribe and
just be
and just by watching my videos that's
increasing my watch time
hours getting me to my goal of 4,000
hours
excuse me now the third most effective
way that I think was able to get my
channel monetized
so quickly was because I was making
videos and embedding them
in my blog post. For example, I did a
video on how to become a loan signing
agent
now I put that video in my top
performing blog articles
so whenever someone were looking at my
top articles I gave them a little teaser
to make them want to watch that video
that I put in my blog articles
so that just gave another reason or
another outlet for people to find me and
on my YouTube channel to watch my videos
and to increase my watch time
hours and that is my most popular video
to date and the teaser that I gave at
the end of that video because I wanted
people to watch until the very end
I told them to wait until the end of the
video because I was going to show them
something that was going to trip
them out and the thing that I had that
would trip them out
is that I was holding my baby I had just
had a baby I think it was like he was
two months old at that point
and I was holding him the entire video
some people knew it and some people
didn't know
and if you look at the comments I have
so many people who just commented to say
I can't believe you were holding a baby
or I knew you holding baby I thought I
heard something but
I just gave them a reason to watch all
the way until the end
and if you look that video up in YouTube
and type in how to become
a loan signing agent you'll find my
video in like the number two spot
which is another way to get consistent
views or people
that are watching my videos making me
money because they are going through an
ad first before they watch that video.
So if you guys want to start a blog I
highly recommend it, it is a lot of work
but it's so worth it. I've been able to
build my business into a six figure
business
in under two years and when I say
business I'm talking about my blog
and I have a video on a step-by-step
video tutorial on how you guys can get
started and I have articles and things
about it so if you have any questions
just let me know
I do have a series on this channel
called blog tip Tuesday where I give
helpful blog tips every single Tuesday
and I will put my article on how to
start a blog in the description below

you now understand how i've been able to
monetize my channel and maybe you can
take some of these tidbits
to do with your channel. So I would love
