What is the youtube Partnership Program ?

Youtube Partnership Program is a revenue-sharing program that allows creators and producers of original content to earn money from their popular videos on YouTube. You can earn revenue from relevant advertisements that run against your video using Google's proprietary technology. The program is based on cost-per-impression advertising. If your video content complies with Youtube's Terms of Use and Community Guidelines, and has thousands of views, it may be considered for the program.

Currently, the YouTube Partnership Program is invite-only. If your account has a video which is eligible for the program, you'll see an invitation message in your YouTube account. If you are accepted into the program, you can sign in to your YouTube account to begin the steps that will enable monetization of your videos.
