that page it's actually not published anymore now you need to make videos that are three minutes or longer you can use your own content and make your own videos or what you can do also is get permission to use other videos on the internet so you need to actually get permission from the owners of any videos that you are going to use so never take someone's content especially without

i want to go over the guidelines with you so back here in creator studio you can see your analytics on how your videos are performing you can upload your video you can create a post whatever it is that you want to do over here they have their settings and creative tools that you can use cool thing about facebook creator studios that they actually have all of the information for you whether you meet the criteria or not so it says that you meet the criteria to apply for these monetization tools and it'll tell you whether you meet them or not now the first way to monetize is within stream ads and in-stream ads are short video ads that you can include in your videos to earn money so my criteria is not met and the cool thing is that it'll show you here whether you've met the criteria or not so i can go ahead and view my criteria and it'll tell me that i have seven percent of the followers that i need so in order for you to start monetizing you do need a minimum of 10 000 followers also in the last 60 days you need a total of 600 000 views okay and this includes also live video so even if you have a live videos on your page if you have accumulated over 600 000 views for example you keep on posting you post every single day a three minute video for example you have things that can potentially go viral and these things can actually get you there faster but this is very much like any other video creating platform like youtube if you just keep on going and keep on promoting your page and create your page around something specific then you can go ahead and gain followers that way and by the way you also need at least five on-demand videos or previously live videos published on your page that are active and created by you so you have to have at least five videos on your page that's not bad you can just get going with creating videos of course i have videos on this page that's why i have a hundred percent on this another ways that you can create fan subscriptions you can go ahead and include exclusive content for your subscriptions so you can create a subscription for your page and earn monthly income so you can offer exclusive benefits and grow community of people who subscribe and support you and for this you also need 10 000 followers you need 250 weekly returning viewers you need 500 000 post engagements in the last 60 days and you need a 180 000 minutes viewed between all of your videos and this one is that people can pay you with stars and this one is invite only so we're not gonna even worry too much about this and also you can get paid for in-stream ads for live videos on your page so you can include short video ads in your live and previously live videos to earn money you decide which videos you want to monetize with pre-roll mid-roll or image ads then we tailor the ad experience for your viewers based on where they're watching so if you do live videos you can do this as well and the eligibility is pretty much the same you need 10 000 followers and in the last 60 days a total of 600 000 on demand live and previously live minutes viewed so in total you just need 600 000 on demand views you can also get paid by brand collapse you can earn money from paid partnerships with brands that want to collaborate on creating and sharing content with your audience okay so these are the ways that you can monetize facebook so let's go ahead and take a look at some examples of facebook content that you can get started with you can go ahead and search at the watch section of facebook so you can have some ideas of what types of videos are actually working on facebook so this page has about 187 000 people following you don't need millions of followers on your page okay you just need to meet the requirements and you need your videos to be about three minutes or longer if we actually take a look at this page and we go to videos you're gonna see that most of the videos are just about three minutes long so they don't even go over four minutes or anything like that they're about three minutes long now you can go ahead and get some ideas browse through facebook videos and see what is working if you do use somebody else's content
