YouTube pays its creators through AdSense which basically means that YouTube runs ads on your videos and pays you every time an ad is shown.
To apply for monetization, your channel needs a minimum 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours watch time. It’s only after that you can start earning from your YouTube channel.
But monetizing a channel is not an easy task. It may take months, even years until you start earning from YouTube.
But don’t worry, buy 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours now and start earning right away.
