Today I received an e-mail talking about new YouTube rules. It appears YouTube can monetize all our contents in the platform if our channeld aren't part of its partner (the e-mail doesn't name the partner, but surely it refers to Adsense). Well, we are the authors and YouTube monetize . Do you know what's happening?

If you have 1000 subscribers your channel can be monetized as long as it doesnt break the rules

[Pousinha]

No, I haven't so many. I mostly use youtube channel to store my e-book trailers to never get lost.

Hehe... i don't have any idea about this but i am going to open a new channel in next month this information will help me lot.
Please keep updated

If YouTube earns using our contents, monetizing them in spite of we are the authors, we made efforts and YouTube earns as we work for free, it must give us rewards (for ex. a short period of premium YouTube without requiring payments). Unfortunately I can't delete my e-book trailers, because my social commerces where I publish them too, need an official supportive platform where authors get the links to prove we are really the content authors.

This rule came in a few months back. As per this, YouTube can get revenues through any sort of advertising or content validity even if the channel is not in the 1000 subscribers- 4000 watch hours minimum criteria.
Yes this is a highly monopolistic act on the part of the YouTube and means that if you want to remain here, follow it.
Yet one has invested too much time, effort and often money already that where would one go!!

Even a 1000 subscribers channel is not that convenient. Adsense pays crumbs until don't reach tons of views and in certain countries, it's more the taxes the government require to maintain the channel's legality (for ex., youtubers in Italy are compelled to a 4000 thousand euros VAT plus compulsory accountant fees, in the range between 500 and 3500 euros).

That sounds like big taxation in Italy.
As per an amended rule, one pays default 24% tax on the "part" of the YouTube earnings in the US.
If carefully selected, that becomes up to 15% but that is if that country has a Tax treaty with US.
India has it, Brazil might also have one, but there are countries which do not have.
I think a tax up to 8-10% is ok, not beyond that.

1000 subscribers can be profitable if you are a daily uploader because the algorithm will favor you.

Yes, Italy is one of the worst country in the world about taxation, as it's 70% in the face of poor benefits and infinite disservices It's very better being a youtuber in the USA.

I only have 7 subscribers, but I never bothered with YouTube channel. For me is just a place where to store and never lose my artworks, but I don't find too much correct YouTube to monetize them.
In any way, even in the case I had 1000 subscribers, it won't help, as my account is blocked regarding Adsense, due to a simple mistake of 12 years ago bound to Google sites times (I had asked for Adsense, but I was just a newbie and didn't know my Google sites should have at least 5 pages): moral of this history, I still have a pending request to activate Adsense for Google sites that don't exist anymore. And Google never answered to support ticket.

So do you plan to carry on much on YouTube or do something on an alternative platform?

[Pousinha]

All depends on my European PTW social commerce. I need to upload my e-book trailers to satisfy my followers and readers (and so improving my writing career) and until now, YouTube links are the best to do so (my social commerce doesn't let users to upload videos contents stored in our devices: until now we had the need to show we are the creators of the contents through a YouTube channel. If my social commerce would accept links from another platform, I would transfer my e-book trailers elsewhere and delete all the content on YouTube.

[chikitta]

Never heard about this until now, it's unfortunate for youtubers who do the donkey work then youtube earns on their behalf i think that's unfair.

[Pousinha]

Maybe an idea for youtubers that can't monetize our channel is to maintain private our videos. But in my case I still wonder how to stick with my European social commerce that needs author's proof. I can't lose that task. Maybe in my case is better to go on publishing on YouTube because it means I can monetize in my european social commerce.

I am supposed to earn too but so far I see no earnings.

You need a program to build one (I'm not sure if YouTube Studio lets to). I use the freeware Bolide Show Creator. Or the default Microsoft toll Photos. For the musics, I use YouTube library copyright free.
But to monetize, Adsense is needed.
