YouTube Partnership Program to be expanded to popular videos

Google owned video sharing service YouTube has announced that they are now working on expanding their YouTube Partnership Program.

YouTube Partnership Program enables content creators to generate revenues from their videos hosted on the YouTube platform.

The revenues generated from the advertisements on these videos are shared with the publisher.

YouTube has revealed that the program was till now limited to select publishers.

They are now working on expanding the program and individual videos can be monetized.

YouTube said in a blog post:

Now, when you upload a video to YouTube that accumulates lots of views, we may invite you to monetize that video and start earning revenue from it. To determine whether a particular video is eligible for monetization, we look at factors like the number of views, the video’s virality and compliance with the YouTube Terms of Service. If your video is eligible for monetization, you will receive an email and see an “Enable Revenue Sharing” message next to your video on the watch page, as well as in other places in your account.

This is a cool new development which is expected to generate a lot of enthusiasm amongst the serious YouTube users.
