Yes, friends, you can start making money from YouTube by just simply posting videos on YouTube. All you have to do is you just need a google account and create a YouTube Channel. Now make sure what type of channel you want to make or what type of videos you want to post this may depend on your passion. Once your channel gets 10,00 subscribers and your videos complete 4000 hours of watch time in total, you become eligible to apply for monetization and start earning. YouTube is going to review your YouTube Channel and if it’s fine with YouTube’s policy and guidelines then your channel is going to get approved and ads will start to serve on your YouTube videos.
After getting monetization you need to be careful that you do not post any copyrighted content or post any video which violates their monetization policy.
After this, you need to link your YouTube account with your Adsense account in order to start making money because ads are served on your videos through Adsense only. You need to create a new Adsense account if you do not have one already. You must be 18 years old to create your own Adsense account if not you can create an AdSense account in your parent’s name. Remember one thing you can create many YouTube channels but you can’t create more than one Adsense account, so create your Adsense account carefully.
For linking your YouTube account with your Adsense account you need to go to your youtube channel and then you have to go to “My Channel” and then go on “Video Manger” which is at top of your channel art and then go on “Channel” then go on “Monetization” and then you have to apply for it.
Once you linked your YouTube account with your Adsense account you can start making money for the ads served on your YouTube videos. You can receive your earned revenue in your Bank account which you have given in your Adsense once you hit the threshold amount(the minimum amount needed to withdraw your revenue), in India threshold amount to withdraw revenue is $100. The money will be kept on hold in your Adsense account until you reach the threshold.
Important Notes:
- To create an Adsense account your age must be 18 or above.
- You become eligible to apply for the YouTube Partner program only when you get at least 1000 subscribers and complete 4000 hours of watch time on your videos.

I want to know. How many views I need to make 1 dollar ?
Ankit Mishra says
It not depends on views . It depends on the number of time an Ad impression got showed on your videos to your viewers. You get paid only for those google ads not for the views.
