Spread the love

Monetization Requirements: 1000 subscribers + 4000 watch hours (last 12 months).
Earning Methods: Adsense (main source), Super Chats & Stickers, Channel Memberships, Shorts Fund, Brand Deals.
Biggest Advantage (Jaise aapne kaha): Passive Income. Ek accha video search aur suggestion mein rank karta hai, jisse mahino aur saalon tak views aate rehte hain. YouTube ko ek “video bank” samjha jaata hai jahan aapka content aapke liye kaam karta rehta hai.
Challenge: Shuruat mein growth slow ho sakta hai. Consistent, high-quality, search-friendly content banana zaroori hai.

Monetization Requirements: Comparatively kam. In-stream ads ke liye 10,000 followers ya 600,000 minutes watch time (last 60 days). Reels Monetization ke liye views-based criteria hota hai.
Earning Methods: In-stream Ads (video ke beech mein), Reels Play Bonus (fixed amount for views), Fan Subscriptions, Brand Collabs.
Biggest Advantage (Jaise aapne kaha): Fast Virality & Push to New Creators. Facebook ka algorithm naye bhi creators ko zyada easily push karta hai agar unka content engaging hai. Quick earning shuru karne ka accha platform hai.
Challenge: Virality short-lived hoti hai. Aaj video viral hui, kal koi doosri viral ho jati hai. Long-term passive income YouTube jitni strong nahi hai.

Monetization Requirements: Bonus programs ke liye specific criteria (jaise 10k+ followers). Brand deals ke liye followers nahi, engagement dekha jata hai.
Earning Methods: Reels Play Bonus, Brand Collaborations & Sponsorships (yahan sabse zyada paisa hai), Badges (Live videos mein), Affiliate Marketing.
Biggest Advantage: Brand Deals ke liye Best. Engagement rate high hai. Visual appeal wale content (fashion, food, travel, lifestyle) ke liye ye platform perfect hai.
Challenge: Algorithm changes bahut frequent hote hain. Organic reach maintain karna mushkil hai. Paid promotions par nirbhar rehna padta hai.

Monetization Requirements: Creator Fund ya Reward programs ke liye minimum followers aur views.
Earning Methods: Creator Funds, LIVE Gifts, Brand Partnerships.
Biggest Advantage: Massive Reach in Short Time. Trends ko quickly join karke naye creators overnight famous ho sakte hain.
Challenge: Earning potential zyada tar brand deals par hi depend karti hai. Platform-specific funds zyada stable nahi hote. Content ki life bahut short hoti hai.

Aapne jo kaha wo bilkul sahi hai: Ye aapke content aur goals par nirbhar karta hai.

YouTube choose karein agar:

Aap long-term, sustainable passive income banana chahte hain.
Aapka content educational, review-based, tutorial-based, ya search-friendly hai (e.g., “How to…”, “Best phone under 20k”).
Aap consistent hain aur mehnat karke apna “asset” (channel) build karna chahte hain.

Facebook choose karein agar:

Aapka content mass appeal rakhta hai aur quickly viral ho sakta hai (funny skits, quick hacks, desi comedy).
Aap jaldi monetization shuru karna chahte hain (Reels Bonus ke through).
Aap already ek established community ya Facebook page ke through audience ko engage karte hain.

Instagram / TikTok choose karein agar:

Aapka niche visual hai – Fashion, Beauty, Lifestyle, Food, Travel.
Aap brand collaborations aur influencer marketing par focus karna chahte hain.
Aap trends par quickly create karna aur young audience tak pahunchna chahte hain.

Cross-Platform Promotion: Ek hi content ko alag-alag formats mein banaye aur har platform par daale. Ek YouTube video ke highlights ko Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, aur Facebook Reels par daala ja sakta hai.
Build a Central Hub: Apne sabse strong platform (mostly YouTube) ko apna “home” banaye. Baki sab platforms (Instagram, Facebook) ko use karo audience ko apne YouTube channel par le kar aane ke liye.
Experiment: Pehle sab platforms par thoda-thoda content daalke dekhein. Jahan se aapko sabse zyada organic reach aur engagement mile, usi par zyada focus karein.
