Do you want to learn what is Google Adsense? How it works and How to make money with Google Adsense? 

Then keep reading this content... Hello,  My name is Abhishek.

What is Google Adsense? 

Adsense is a product from Google that you can integrate with your website, blog or you tube channel to monetize the traffic and earn some money How does Google Adsense work? 

Come let's understand this in detail If you have a website or a blog or a YouTube channel , this would make you a Publisher People who visit your website, blog or YouTube Channel are called traffic Companies that want to reach your traffic by displaying advertisements are called advertisers Advertisers display ads on your website, blog or YouTube channel via Google Adsense Advertisers pay Google Adsense to display these advertisements.

Adsense deducts some money and passes the remaining ad revenue to you, For Instance, let's say that the advertiser pays Adsense $3 for displaying an ad 1000 times AdSense will take its cut to let's say $1.2 and pass the remaining $1.8 to you This is only an example for illustrative purposes.

The money paid by advertisers depends on a no. of factors such as the country in which the website is based the topic of the website depends on the time and is not at all fixed The money paid to you by Adsense is also a guess. 

There is a range for this However as per Google a higher percentage of the revenue is given to the Publisher and not Google Advertisers pay to display ads based on the topic of the website, the kind and volume of traffic it generates One question that is frequently asked is that Is Google Adsense Free? 

Yes, it is absolutely free to integrate Google Adsense on your website, blog or YouTube channel You do not need to pay Google or anyone else any money for this, On the other hand, Google will give you a share of the income However everyone may not be able to integrate Google Adsense on their website, blog or channel.

To try Videoleap for yourself, click the link below this video. All right, I'm getting some great feedback from this series. I just posted in my Community tab asking what you thought about it and if you had any more questions and boy, did you have a lot of questions. And guess what? 

I've got answers to match, starting with this first question from Laughyouhealthy. Laughyouhealthy asks I focus on comedy and mental health personal development and I just want to know how I can get monetized as quick as possible because I have goals set and I've been using the best keywords and tags in TubeBuddy. That's a great question, Laughyouhealthy, and I'm really glad you asked because there's a ton of content creators on YouTube that are trying to figure out the same thing. 

Now, as we are getting into this, the very first thing that you need to make sure that you know, if you are trying to get your YouTube channel monetized is, you need to have 1000 subscribers on your YouTube channel, which might seem like a lot, but hang with me here. And you also need to have 4000 hours of watch time that you've accumulated within the last 365 days. So now you're probably thinking, oh, great, Nick, that's fantastic, but how do I actually do that? Well, here's how you do it. So, there's a handful of things that you need to make sure that you are doing if you're trying to get your channel monetized quickly. 

The very first of those is you need to make sure that you are making content for a specific audience, and I'll tell you why. When you're making content for a specific audience, or you're niching down on your content, the idea behind that it's not just so that you only make one type of content because nobody wants you to make a bunch of other types of content, it's because when you're making content for a specific audience, they're more likely to get presented the new videos that you upload, and then when those new uploads are presented to them, they're more likely to come in and watch that content, which is gonna get you closer to that 4000 hours worth of watch time, because they are interested in that topic because you are focused on that particular audience and the things that they're interested in. 

So, if we put that into a real-life situation, let's say that you're doing reviews on your channel, or let's say that you're doing gaming videos, if you are doing reviews, then in that situation, you'd wanna make sure that all of the reviews that you're putting out are on a specific type of thing. That's why tech channels are so popular because people who are interested in tech, they can watch a tech review even if they're not gonna buy this specific thing because they just love tech. 

The same exact thing would apply if you were doing dog product reviews or dog product reviews for small breeds, that sort of thing. If we apply this to the gaming world, even though gamers typically like to play a bunch of different types of games, it's also beneficial that you focus on one type of game or one game when you're first getting started. As an example, you just cover racing games or if you wanna be super specific, you just cover Need for Speed. 

When you take this approach to whatever type of content it is that you're making, what you're doing is you are increasing the likelihood of the people that came in and watched one of your videos yesterday, clicking on the video that you published today. And the power in that is that every single time that you get one of those people to click and come back into your channel and watch and enjoy that video, the more you're increasing the likelihood of YouTube understanding that when they put that particular video in front of a certain type of viewer that they're going to click on it and respond to the content that's in front of them. 

And I can't stress enough how big of a win that is, especially when you start scaling things out when your channel really starts moving along. Another huge bonus that ends up working to your favor in this situation is, let's say that you have somebody that comes in for the review content or you have somebody that comes in for the gaming content or whatever type of content it is that you make and then through your value proposition that you have in your videos or through the content that you have just by itself on your YouTube channel, your viewer can identify that you have other content that's available for them that they're interested in on your YouTube channel, guess what? 

You're also increasing the likelihood of those people subscribing to your YouTube channel as well. That concept is what makes making videos for a particular type of viewer such a powerful thing because it can really start to swell things up because people keep coming back to your channel, watching videos over and over again, and of course, subscribing. 

Now, let's take those viewers that are coming into your YouTube channel and level that whole thing up a notch. 

The next thing that you wanna do if you want to get monetized quickly is you wanna make sure that it's easy for people to find other content on your YouTube channel. Here's what I mean. Let's say that your video gets shown to me on the homepage of YouTube and I decided to click on that video because it's something that I'm interested in. If you follow the concept that I just talked about in terms of serving a particular audience, I'm immediately qualified to watch other videos on your YouTube channel. 

And since I'm immediately qualified to watch other videos on your YouTube channel, your job as a content creator is to make it easy for me to find more of the content that I wanna watch on your YouTube channel. How do you do that? It's really easy actually. And what I'm getting ready to share with you is going to help you amplify the activity that's happening on your YouTube channel in terms of the number of people that are coming into your channel, the number of videos that they're actually watching when they come in. 

And of course, the rate that they're subscribing to your channel because they're watching more than one video, which is increasing their likelihood of subscribing in addition to increasing your ad revenue once you do get monetized, but you have to apply what it is that I'm getting ready to tell you to your YouTube channel and to your videos in order for this to work. 

So I've made videos on my channel about something called a watch time trap and with a watch time trap, the idea is simply that you take one viewer and you multiply the views and the interactions that they're having on your YouTube channel. The idea is simply that they are caught in your trap of videos because you are making videos that they're interested in. 

Remember, if we fall back on the concept number one, and because of that, you make it easy for people to find more of your content on your channel by doing these things. Like I mentioned before, if I click on your video to watch your video, I'm immediately qualified to watch that video because I clicked on it. I'm already interested, you already have my attention. You got me, I'm in, I'm interested, high five, fist bump. Now that you got me, your job as a content creator is to make it easy for me to find more of your content and how you do that is you recommend other videos to people as they're watching your videos. 

So as an example, 

in your in-screen, you would make a video that is similar to, in terms of the topic of interest, the video that I would be watching at that point in time. So if I just clicked on a video, I'm watching that video, the video that you would recommend in your in-screen for me to watch next would also be something that would make sense for me to watch after just watching the video that I watched on the channel. I think I just said, watch, like 100 times just now, not really 100 but I said, watch a lot. But anyway, the next thing that you need to make sure that you do is you have the option on YouTube to be able to pin a comment that you may or may not know that if you've been watching my content, but if you haven't, you might not know. 

So because of that, you need to make sure that you're also pinning a comment that is also recommending another video that would make sense for that particular viewer to watch. The reason that pinning a comment is important is that not everybody's gonna make it to your in-screen. 

And there's gonna be some people that as they're watching the video, they're gonna go down, they're gonna look in your comments and when they scroll down your page or they're scrolling down your page on their phone, what they're going to see if they're going to see that pinned comment for the people that scrolled down there. So for the people that are completing your video, you have a video that's available for them to watch there, for the people that are going down to your comment section, you have a video for them to watch there. 

And of course, you can also add relevant videos to your video description as well so that you can catch the people that even go down and look in your video description. I'm gonna tell you how to even level this up even more right here in a second, but the idea that we're working through here is that you're taking a viewer that's coming into the channel and you're making it easy for them to find the content through using different features based on what it is that they might do or how they might react on the page or interact with the page that they're watching or looking at on YouTube. 

That's the idea. 

And one more thing that I wanna talk about before we level up the idea on watch time is, let's say that you have the watch time requirement but you haven't gotten the subscriber requirement yet, then in that situation, if you're trying to get both because it's a requirement for getting monetized, then in that situation, instead of trying to drive people to that next video in your pin the comment, then you might wanna go really hard on making sure that you have a reminder for people to subscribe there. You might wanna go really hard on focusing on the subscribe call to action your in-screen instead of trying to get people to watch another video. 

So if you have one of the things fulfilled, then put your efforts on to trying to get the other things fulfilled through using the different features and your verbal calls to action. And what I mean by that is simply telling people, hey, if you enjoyed this video, make sure that you subscribe for more, that simple. 

And of course, you make it possible for them to do that by adding that circle subscribes icon to your in-screen as well. Oh, and hey, look at this. Oh, got you, I got you. Joke from my youth, you may or may not get that, but basically how the whole thing went down is if you actually got somebody to look at it, then you got the sock them in the arm right here. But anyway, if we're leveling this whole thing up even more, and remember, we're still just on the video page right now. 

So we're gonna take this even further, but we're leveling it up, even more, the next thing that you wanna think about is driving people into playlists and not just driving people into a playlist by themselves, but driving people into series playlists. 

And here's why. YouTube tells us that if we put videos into a series playlist and people watch those videos together, then they are more likely to show other videos in that series playlist next to other videos in that playlist. And here's how you benefit from that, YouTube is recommending your other content in that playlist to the people that are watching that particular video. 

So you have YouTube working for you, trying to get people to watch another one of your videos. You have yourself working for you because you're putting these links all over your channel page trying to get people to watch other videos. and your viewers are loving it because you're making it easy for them to find other content that they wanna watch. Everybody's winning in this situation and your channel is growing because of it. Okay, so what else can we do? So if our problem with getting monetized is that we need to solve that we have 1000 subscribers, and then we have 4000 hours of watch time, what else can we do in order to make that happen quickly? 

Well, here's another thing that you can do, is if we go off of the video watch page itself, and we go to your actual channel page, what you wanna do there once you are on your channel page is you wanna structure your content in a way that makes sense based around the interest that your viewers have around the type of content that you make. 

As an example,

let's say that you have a music channel, you have a music channel and you have different types of music. Like let's say that you have some that's kind of upbeat and kind of funky maybe, and then you have some other that's more chill, then in that situation, organizing your content that way so the people that are into the chill music can easily find that, people that are into the funky stuff, then they can click on that and go find that. 

If you're a gamer and you're following the idea of just focusing on a certain type of game, like all racing games, for example, then you can break it down by the specific game on your channel page as well by putting the videos that are on each game into a playlist and then you basically put that playlist on your channel page, so that when people go to your channel page on YouTube, as they're scrolling down, they can see the exact videos or the exact game that they care about and they can click into that and then they can watch the videos that you have on that specific game. 

If you have an education channel, then you would break the content down into playlist on your channel page around the things that you teach or the problems that people have that you help them solve. If you're a tech channel, you could break it down by manufacture or the device if you happen to be covering a bunch of different types of devices. So ultimately, what you're trying to do when you're trying to get monetized is you're trying to fulfill the requirements that you have to have. 

You gotta get that 4000 hours of watch time and get those 1000 subscribers, and the best way to do that is by taking the people that are already coming into your YouTube channel and making it easy for them to find the other stuff they care about in your channel through linking to it on your video watch page and organizing things in a way to where they can easily find what they care about on your channel page. Now let's talk about the elephant in the room. (elephant roars) In order for these things to really accelerate how fast you are getting the results that you're after on YouTube, it's really important to make sure that you are still being very mindful about your titles, that you're being very mindful about how people are responding to thumbnail and title combinations when you are publishing your videos. 

It's really important that you're mindful of how people are reacting to your video content. So because of that, you need to make sure that you are in your analytics. If you wanna really get monetized fast, part of the commitment there is to make sure that you are digging into your YouTube analytics on a regular basis and you're being mindful of paying attention to how people are responding to the different things that you're doing. 

So, make sure you're paying a lot of attention to your click-through rate on your thumbnail, also make sure that you're paying a lot of attention to your audience retention, your average view duration on YouTube, it's super important. Because if people are clicking, but they're not watching your videos for a fair amount of time, then the video is not gonna do well and it's gonna become very difficult for you to get monetized. If people aren't clicking, then in that situation, you're not gonna get monetized because you're not able to do the very first thing, which is actually to get people to click. 

So it's really important to make sure that you're looking in your analytics and you're being very mindful of how people are responding to what it is that you're going because that response is going to basically be the ultimate decider on if people aren't going to be able to come into your content and watch for a long period of time, which is what you're going for, and ultimately subscribe to what it is that you're doing because they appreciate your content in some way or they find value in it in some way. 

It's super important. 

And once you can get people to click on your videos and enjoy your videos for a fair amount of time to what you are accumulating watch time with every video that you upload, then in that situation, another way to speed up your monetization process is the upload more as long as you're getting people to click on your videos and watch them for a fair amount of time because the more you upload in that situation mathematically, the faster you're gonna get monetized in that situation as well.

Thank you so much. I'll see you next time.

Today I'm going to explain what affiliate marketing is. And how does it really work? 

Stay tuned. Hey, what's up up, guys. Techy Hydra here. If you're new to this blog let me just give you guys a quick background about me. 

My name is Abhishek by Techy hydra on YouTube. I have about 33,000 subscribers right now. And a little over ten million views. So I am a Student, Blogger, and affiliate marketer. 

Thankfully I found affiliate marketing which has given me the lifestyle of my dreams today just two years later. I live in my dream apartment here in downtown Chicago. 

You guys want to peep the view. Peep the view for a second right here. Do a little pan, nice and easy. And every single day I get to drive my dream car which is a custom Porsche 911 Turbo. I'm gonna put some clips or something right here. But anyway let's get on with the video. I want to teach you guys what affiliate marketing is. 

So I'm going to show you guys the basics and fundamentals. Just explain how it works and I'm going to hop into my computer actually. And show you guys some real examples and show you step by step how people are using affiliate marketing these days to make money online. 

And trust me when I say this, everyone does affiliate marketing. Literally everyone. All the famous YouTubers, all the tech reviewers, people on Instagram, all those fitness people. Big companies like Uber, Lyft. Blogs like Smart Passive Income. And even small food blogs, "small" food blogs do affiliate marketing. 

So, let's just hop into the computer so I can give you guys an actual click by click, step-by-step on how affiliate marketing works, and what it is. Alright, let's get into it. Alright, so we have transported inside of my computer using a little technology called Magic. 

And now I'm going to show you guys step-by-step some real-world examples of how affiliate marketing works and how it is used in the real world. But just to get things started, a basic description at its core of affiliate is that it is just referrals, okay. So affiliate marketing it's kind of a fancy term for just referrals. It's basically referring people to products and services of companies that are not your own and then receiving a commission if those people sign up or take action upon your referral. Usually through a link. So just to give you guys a quick, quick example. 

So this is my video. It's a review of a very popular headphone called the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x, which I actually have right here. It looks a little different from the video because I put some skins on them.

But basically, you guys can see 300,000 views. And if you scroll down to the description, the first thing you see here is an Amazon link. And you guys as long as you weren't born yesterday, if you watch any sort of tech review on YouTube, you're gonna see Amazon links or some sort of funny looking links in the description, And nine times out of ten those are affiliate links. And what is an affiliate link? 

Basically, Amazon Associates if I just go right here, it is Amazon's affiliate program. Let's just log out of that real quick. So Amazon Associates is Amazon's affiliate program. And as you guys can see, earn up to 10% advertising fees with a trusted e-commerce leader. So if you join Amazon Associates which you guys can do today. It's completely free but you might need to have a website in order to get approved. Some people are able to without it. But I would have a website just in case. 

Alright, guys so if you log in and then you just look up products for Amazon Associates that you can promote. As you can see here we have the M50x. And all you have to do is click here, and then get a link which basically is the personalized tracking link that you can include in your videos, on your website, on your landing page. And then this link is personalized to your account.

Now what that means is it has a tracking code through cookies. Where if somebody clicks that link it's gonna be tracked back to you. And for Amazon Associates at least, if somebody buys anything from Amazon, not just the product which is the headphones. If they buy anything within 24 hours, you receive a percentage of the commission. Now, the commission ranges. It definitely ranges based on the product category. It can range from 4 to 10%. 

So if I just look up Amazon Associates rates then we can actually see each specific product category and how much they pay. So let's just look down. If we scroll down here you guys can see there is a fixed rate for each product on that you sell. So if you sell something from let's say in the PC category. So this could be computers, laptops, DVDs, Blu-ray, et cetera. 

You get 2.5% of that sale. So if you sell a laptop for $1,000, you will receive 25 bucks basically. So basically 2.5% right there. So that's how it works at its core. Amazon Associates is the largest in terms of affiliate programs because it just has the widest range of products. But there are many sorts of affiliate networks that have more exclusive offers with the companies and with the products that may yield you a higher percentage of commission. 

So this is just a quick example right here of how people do it on YouTube. I'm gonna move on to the next example which is blogs. And my favorite affiliate marketing blog is smartpassiveincome.com. It's created by a guy named Pat Flynn who is awesome. He has an awesome podcast that you guys should check out. 

But basically, Pat's been crushing it with affiliate marketing for as long as I've been in the game basically. And if you look at this, this is his income reports. And as you can see two mills during the last 12 months. It's insane. These numbers are crazy. Six figures a month. Six figures a month when a lot of people are trying to strive for six figures a year, this guy's making six figures every single month. And it's just insane. 

But basically, if you scroll down. If I just choose the latest income report. So we'll do August 2017. I just scroll down and I'll show you guys that he actually is transparent enough to share his affiliate marketing earnings broken down by the company. So as you guys can just scroll down here you see Amazon. He made about 600 bucks, not too bad. 

But if you scroll down to some of these other companies like Bluehost, you see $19,470 from a single source of affiliate marketing. 

So from posting links guys. Again, it's that simple, it's that easy. It's a completely passive income. 

Which is one of the reasons why I believe it is the best online business that anyone can take up today? So just to give you guys a little more detail into how this works. 

Bluehost right here, they are a web hosting company and it's obvious they have an affiliate program. Because he's earning close to 20 grand from it. Now if we go to Bluehost's website. You guys can see right here bluehost.com. It's web hosting. For anyone who wants to create a website, you can sign up for Bluehost right here. With WordPress or whatever. 

But if you scroll down to the very bottom. And now this works for most companies that have affiliate programs. You will see affiliates at the bottom footer. Now if you click that it will take you right into their affiliate program. And you guys can actually see over five million paid in commissions last year alone. So as you guys can see this isn't some sort of scam or anything. 

Definitely do not confuse affiliate marketing with network marketing, which is multi-level marketing, which is pyramid schemes. Affiliate marketing is not a pyramid scheme at all. It is legit sales and commissions. So basically you're a salesman for real companies. You're not selling energy drinks and driving around base three series.

This is a real business right here. This right here I mean look at this right now. Bluehost is a legit company. They also have affiliate programs for companies like HostGator, GoDaddy. You've heard of these companies. You've seen them on TV, you've seen them on ads. These are real companies that were talking about. 

So anyway getting back into Bluehost's affiliate program. If you scroll down, as you guys can see, free to join as with most affiliate programs. You guys can see how it works. Basically, you have custom banners and links just like Amazon Associates for every visitor who clicks your link and signs up within I believe a 30 day period. 

Now Amazon's is only 24 hours. But for most affiliate programs it's usually around a 30-day tracking cookie. It's between 14 days to 30 days. 60 days, sometimes 90 days. But 30 is the industry average for tracking links. And Bluehost, they will give you $65 a pop for everyone who signs up through your Bluehost link. 

Completely free to join just like Amazon Associates. Again, this is affiliate marketing. It's very simple, it's very basic. But I figured I'd just peel back the kimono and show you guys how people are really making money online behind the scenes. Now I'll give you one more example. This is Instagram. One of my favorite YouTubers slash people that I follow on Instagram is Maxx Chewning. Been following him since the first few days back when he started doing the Full Day of Eating videos. Those were my favorite. 

Basically here is an ad. This is for MVMT watches. And this is a little different because the thing is with affiliate marketing is you usually have links right. But another way that you can do this, now some people call this sponsorship, it's all the same thing to me. 

Basically is providing coupon codes. So as you guys can see, Maxx has his own coupon codes. It's personalized, says, "MAXX15". You get $15 off your order at MVMT. And basically what is happening here is if you use Maxx's link, yes you get $15 off but he also gets attribution for your sale, and therefore he gets a kickback or commission. 

Now I don't know how much he makes off the sale. I'm not an MVMT affiliate, I cannot speak on that. But it's probably somewhere around 10, 15 bucks per sale. Which is a very nice extra source of income considering how passive it is. He just has to post one photo like this or make one video and he can continue to earn money off every single sale from that video. And as you guys can see, the power of the internet, the power of scale. 

This has over 10,000 likes. And you can bet that of those 10,000 likes, the chances of a few people buying a watch using his code are pretty high. Let's be honest. It's just math at the end of the day. Marketing is a numbers game. And if you're getting 10,000 likes, you're getting 10,000 views, you're getting 10,000 clicks. Chances are someone's buying something and you're gonna be making a commission. 

So basically those are all my big examples. It's very simple. I hope I can show you guys behind the scenes of how affiliate marketing actually works in the real world. And how people are using it to generate large sources of side income that is different. 

And it's more effective than just doing Google AdSense. Which is just showing ads. Just, for example, YouTube only pays two bucks for every thousand views in my experience. Now, this changes depending on your niche or your industry. But just to put things in perspective. If Maxx sells one of these and he makes $15, just think about the number of views he would have to get to make that same amount of money from one sale of selling one watch. 

So really less is more. You don't have to sell as much. You don't have to get as many views. But if you get sales you get more commission than getting thousands upon thousands of views. 

But obviously, if you have both then it's a win-win for everybody. Multiple streams of income always the way to go. Alright, guys so that wraps up this video.
