Adsense is the only on-platform advertisement program on YouTube which pays you for putting ads on videos of your YouTube channel. As we all know, YouTube Monetization is one of the most primary ways of earning money online from YouTube. Talented creators are making thousands, even millions of dollars through YouTube every month.

All you require is a legion of committed fans/subscribers and some uniquely creative content.Is it some rocket science kind of stuff? No, it's easier than you can imagine. If you're resourceful in terms of followers then you can start making money in no time. This is a detailed guide on how to put ads on YouTube and start earning right away.

Types of YouTube Ads: Firstly let's understand the types of ads and their relevance according to the content you post. TrueView ads: TrueView video is of two types, In-Stream & In-Display. In-Stream ads play before the video. In-Display ads appear as sponsored suggested video in the sidebar above playlists and YouTube suggested videos.

In-Stream and In-Display ads can be of any duration as the viewer decides if they wish to skip or keep watching. Also, the In-Stream ads can be skipped with "Skip Ad" button popping after 5 seconds. In-Stream ads views are counted as a viewer engages with the ad or watches the ad video for at least 30 seconds.

When videos are shorter than 30 seconds a view counts if a viewer watched the complete video.In case of In-Display ad, a view is counted when the viewer clicks to watch the video. Though the TrueView video can link to external sites, they work best for branding and video views. Music videos are a suitable fit for this ad format.

In addition, the ad platform itself optimizes TrueView ads for views, not for clicks. So the campaigns using TrueView that are focused on clicks are more expensive than the other youtube ad types. Pre-Roll ads: Pre-Roll ads can't be skipped and they are pay per click value, which means the view on them will be counted only if the viewer clicks on them.

Although some publishers allow 30-sec pre-roll videos, this format of advertisement is being discontinued reportedly. In actual practice, publishers offer only 15 to 20-sec videos. Provided the PPC (pay per click) pricing, these 15-second videos are much cheaper than In-stream ads becoming more price efficient. As TrueView ads are best suited for promoting video views and branding, Pre-Roll ads are perfect for sales campaigns

Bumpers:

Bumper ads integrate the functionality of both of the YouTube ad formats but they're perfectly appropriate for branding campaigns. They are of 6 seconds in duration. Bumpers are un-skippable like Pre-Roll but are PPV( pay per view) like TrueView ads. They are also cheaper than TrueView ads. According to a survey conducted by Google, they drive a “considerable lift in an ad recall.” just like TrueView ads, Bumpers also have a click-through option but they're appropriate for views instead.

Monetizing YouTube videos with Adsense:

Now, whenever those ads roll at the starting of your video and someone clicks it, you get paid for that. While a solitary tap on a YouTube video may just yield a couple of pennies, those pennies rapidly add up when you have a great deal of audience engaging with the ads on your YouTube channel.
