What are YouTube monetization requirements?

1,000 subscribers + 4,000 watch hours in the last 12 months (or 1,000 subs + 10M Shorts views in 90 days).

How are revenue estimates calculated?

Estimated views = subscribers × 0.3 (typical view rate). Revenue = views × CPM ($2-5 per 1000 views). Actual earnings vary by niche and geography.

What are the Play Button milestones?

100K = Silver, 1M = Gold, 10M = Diamond. YouTube sends physical Play Button awards at each milestone.
