What are the best ways to monetise your video content? In this episode, Ash and Kane compare two of the biggest video platforms right now, YouTube -vs TikTok. They talk about the advantages of using an established platform such as YouTube but also the differences between YouTube and the more dynamic TikTok and what each has to offer creators.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

It’s harder to reach the threshold on YouTube to use its monetisation tools,
The major downside of TikTok is you don’t always get access to the partner programme unless you consistently hit the threshold. With YouTube, once you have hit it once then it’s lifetime.
It’s 10-20 times easier to get big views on TikTok, meaning it can be consistently easier but if you can put the work in long-term then you will earn much more on YouTube once you hit their threshold.
Ensure your content is at least 1 minute 5 seconds on TikTok as it has this tendency to cut off the end of your video.
Don’t artificially lengthen your content, as this will mean people will stop watching and impact your overall views. Your Editor should be able to use your content to create something that is both long enough and quality content so people don’t switch off.
Those who have very good production with an editor will see the difference in monetisation as they will be able to keep the audience engaged and interested in their content.
