Earning money from video views has become more and more popular lately. This is largely due to the simplicity and passivity of income. However, in addition to creation and placement, there are a number of technical issues to understand. One of the main ones: accumulating and cashing out money.
After connecting the affiliate program from YouTube, money will begin to accumulate on your account. To see the amount earned, you will need to enter the creative studio, then select the "Advanced" item, and then click on the Analytics section. In addition to the total amount earned, other statistics will be displayed there. For example, how much money a particular video brought, on which days the profit was the highest, etc.
Adsense account
To withdraw money, you will need an Adsense account. You can register it with the available data from Google or any other. The company does not regulate this issue in any way, therefore several channels can be connected to one Adsense account at the same time. After that, you will be able to track more detailed statistics, and the earned funds will become available for withdrawal. You can also analyze the activities of individual channels and draw conclusions about their profitability.
The most popular cashing methods are check and electronic money withdrawal. At the moment, Google works with only a few services. For domestic users, Rapida is optimal, which allows you to transfer money to your current bank account or to WebMoney. Detailed instructions are available on the website itself.
If you do not live in Russia, there are other ways of withdrawal. The easiest way, of course, is to use online services. Withdraw money to some internet wallet, and then, using the services of exchangers, transfer the money to the card. Additional interest will be charged for this, but the cashing process will be much faster.
Affiliate network
If your channel is connected to an affiliate network, the money earned is usually accumulated on the internal balance. It all depends on the concluded contract. You may be able to see the displayed figure only at the end of some accounting period (for example, a week or a month). It is best to choose networks that allow you to fully track income statistics. This way you can be sure that you will not be deceived.
It is worth noting that YouTube does not pay money to all users who post videos. Even in Western countries, where monetization programs are much more loyal, this scheme does not work. You still need to accept the agreements and comply with the terms and conditions set by Google. In particular, domestic video channels cannot connect to the partner network automatically.
