Here are the top Youtube copyright policy is that you must adhere to if you want your video to remain on youtube.
As youtube becomes populated as is among one of the most visited site online, the company has always have some policy on ground which serve as guild lines to new youtubers.
Most people, after they have upload a lot of videos, they found out that even with huge subscriber and views, youtube have failed to monetize them.
Why they cant find reason to this, yet all valuable reason are stated on their policy list or post.
Today I will be explaining some, if not all of youtube policy guild lines you must follow in other for you to be able to make money from youtube.
We shall also be answering questions most people who aren’t succeeding or making their way with monetization do ask, questions like : why cant I monetize my youtube channel?, why does youtube fail to respond to me? I got up to 4k watch hours on youtube yet I am not monetize?. This and many other questions are what most youtubers who aren’t monetize ask.
Without further ado, lets see the reasons why youtube fail to allow some people monetize their channel
1. Copyrighted videos
2. Copyrighted sound issues
The above two are the main copy right issues youtube have. I guess I have gotten my first share of both before. One time I was working for a client, I posted a video twice using two different account, then one was taken down as copyright.
Now lets get to talk about the copyright issues in dept.
#1. Copyrighted videos
Any video that you post on your channel that isn’t yours or which you didn’t create{ either in person or a team} falls under this aspect.
Copyrighted videos are noticed by youtube in two ways.
HOW YOUTUBE KNOW ABOUT COPYRIGHTED VIDEOS
1. Through personal or company report
2. Through youtube copyright bot.
Youtube gets to know about your videos through this two means but the fastest means is the bot also known as spider crawler.
At every seconds of searches and uploading, a bot run around the site in scan of videos or issues that might spam the website. This is why YouTube is safe and secure.
Once your video is noticed to be copyrighted, the bot immediately put a banned on it.
#2. Sound copyright
Before I became aware of this, I posted a video on tech stuff and used a song as the background music. The song was so quiet and low that you could hardly heard what it actually entails.
After posting the video, I noticed that the write up in the description changed. I didn’t know how or why but it was change in a form that was great. The write up or description as its called changed and attribution was given to the song author.
Although the video wasn’t taken down, yet the changes was relevant and should be made known to others.
With sound issue, your video might not be taken down but attribution will be added to it to who ever is the owner of the sound.
To prevent this, it is better to get sound from free music library like those stated HERE.
With that being explained, lets see most questions people asked if they fall into the categories of not being able to monetize or just want to be aware.
Are youtube videos copyrighted
Yes. All videos on youtube are either private owned or public owned. A video doesn’t just get to youtube on its owned, it is uploaded by someone{an individual} or it could also be owned by companies as a means of generating sales. All youtube videos are copyrighted.
How can I legally use copyrighted music or videos
You can or you are only permitted to use copyrighted videos on the grounding of proving a point. Note that this video must not be in full play but cut in segment.
When you try to prove a point and increasing the rate which the video play, your video or music will be taken down. For music, you are permitted to use sub sections of a particular song, maybe for intros, outro and even in the middle of the video.
When using a song that isn’t free, don’t forget to give attribution to the owner or the site it was downloaded from.
How do I know if a video is copyrighted
You can know by either going to the youtube studio and confirming or having a basic knowledge that all videos that are posted by youtube was created and owned by someone.
Do you need permission to do covers on songs for youtube
Sure you do need need permission if you can. If you cant get permission to do a cover of a song on youtube, you can go ahead and do it.
Doing a cover simply means that you are creating a style of your own. The only valuable information you need to know is to state the real owners name either in the description or the title.
How do you avoid your video being taken down on youtube?
The only way your video will not be taken down on youtube is if the video is created by you.
Your videos will not be taking down if you are the real owner. Even if it is taken down, reach out to youtube team and it will be reviewed and taking up again.
Do youtube take down copyrighted videos instantly?
Sometimes they do if it immediately becomes trending, other times they don’t immediately take it down. It is totally depend on the youtube bot and the real owner of the video you made copyright from.
How many copyright warnings does youtube send?
Youtube only send one warning for copyrighted videos, why they send a minimum of three copyright warning to channels before placing a banned on them. this is my far expirence with youtube. i hope it profits you.
