What kind of content can google adsense monetize?

The best way to ensure you’ll be able to monetize your YouTube videos is to create your own content. Use your imagination to create something completely original. Examples of videos that have been successful on YouTube include daily vlogs and home videos, do-it-yourself videos and tutorials, original music videos and short films.

You’re also expected to follow YouTube Community Guidelines, which may increase the visibility of your content on YouTube, leading to more views and higher watch time, more user engagement, and ultimately more revenue.

Obtain commercial use rights for specific types of content 

 

For your videos to be eligible for monetization, you must own all the necessary rights to commercially use all visuals and audio, whether they belong to you or to a third party. If you decide to incorporate third-party content in a video you must clear the rights to use and monetize this content on YouTube. Often, this clearance takes the form of explicit written permission from the rights holders.

To ensure that you’re not infringing on anyone else’s copyright, take a moment to learn from Russell and Lumpy at ourCopyright School.

Here are some details about how you may obtain commercial use rights for the following examples of commonly-used content. You may also want to review how to read licenses to understand your rights and what YouTube looks for in your documentation.
