Youtube Partner Program Requirements - Audiencegain
Youtube has these following key requirements for monetization:
- The channel needs to at least have 1000 subscribers
- All videos generate 4000 watch hours in a consecutive amount of time of 365 days
- Users comply with all Youtube’s policies and guidelines
- Register an Adsense account.
You need to meet these basic conditions of Youtube Partner Program, or YPP for short.
To begin with, 4000 Youtube watch time and 1000 subscribers often go hand in hand. To reach 1000 subscribers, you probably reach these conditions in 12 months easily. So to say, 4000 watch hours would be your biggest struggle.

If you are still confused with this, let us explain that. 4000 public Youtube watch time is calculated by the amount of time of video viewed on your channel from people worldwide.
Additionally, those are all the hours of video people have watched on your channel over the last 12 months (since any given date).
That’s what’s worth mentioning. You may get 4,000 watch time hours over the life of your channel, but the last 12 months have not been counted for YouTube Partner Program requirements.
In addition, there are a few other things to tell you about Watch Time. Firstly, non-public videos count towards that total. Secondly, Live streams count towards that total. These videos will quickly increase this standard watch time for you.
However, if you delete any videos, that Watch Time will be removed from the “Watch time” on your channel.
Additionally, if you have taken part in the YouTube Partner Program and if your watch time falls under 4,000 hours, YouTube won’t automatically remove you from the partner program. But if things keep going worse, they can do that.
Youtube’s algorithm will quickly figure out what leads to a monetized channel decrease in the views and subscribers. Maybe it is because your content is no longer relevant to your audiences, or other errors while uploading that you don’t even notice.
To reach 4000 watch hours and 1000 subscribers is already hard, but keeping up with the content trends and stabilizing your performance is even harder.
How to survive the requirements for monetization?
Besides the above mentioned four gold conditions, these are the things you really need to avoid for your youtube channel to operate safely and effectively:
Copyright infringement
It can be said that Youtube infringement is a very heavy penalty. In case you violate this serious act, Youtube is not merely removing videos and setting certain limits, but also deactivating and deleting your whole channel from this platform.

Copyright Infringement
There are two basic cases of copyright infringements here:
Image copyright
If videos of a Youtube account uses an unauthorized protected image, the videos and channel can be removed by Youtube. And moreover, Youtube has a system of image analysis which is detailed to each frame, so it is difficult to surpass.
Sound copyright
In terms of audio piracy, if the video contains registered music tracks, the video will not be posted immediately.
Of course that is when the video is protected by Youtube. At the same time, the victim must also have sufficient evidence to show that his copyright is being stolen. At this point, the infringing video channel can be suspended, or removed completely depending on several cases.
Spam
To put it in short, spam is a form of irritation to others, which is constantly repeating certain actions on the Internet, but it’s worthless and not helpful. The platform will be able to remove videos if users/organization is continuously spamming.
To be honest, to get more Youtube views and subscribers by spamming is such an inappropriate act.
Here are 3 main forms of spam, listed on the top of Youtube.
Video spam

Video spam
This type of spam is when users violate the principle of posting a huge number of worthless videos and boring contents on the platform. They change the thumbnail images to show different visual video’s identity to make the curious audiences clink on, but the videos are still the same.
Comment spam

Spam comment
This happens when users post repeated comments on the comment section. In addition, users who aim to entice viewers to leave their opponents’s channel and subscribe to theirs, then that contents will be listed as spam errors.
Traffic spam

Traffic spam
This is the abusive use of tricks by individuals to increase views, likes, comments and subscribers, or some automated systems to circumvent the rules. Those are commonly known as bots, proxies, tools.
Youtube algorithm is able to indicate these unprofessional actions in a blink of an eye so you’d better be careful. In conclusion, all such actions will be reported by Youtube.
