Do members only community posts have some sort of prominence in how they are displayed for members compared to public ones? For example, if I make a members only community post now, and keep posting public community posts after, effectively burying that post due to time, and someone joins channel memberships say a month from now, will the old members only post appear at the top or be displayed in a way so that they will see it? Or will the newly joined member only see that post if they scroll a ton through my community tab.

Hi Drost, why do my membership tab isn't available? I've been sent an email from youtube that my membersip will be enabled in 14 business days, buat it's been almost 3 weeks but I still haven't got it. Why do this happend?
I didn't get memberships activated until years after meeting the requirements. I recommend contacting support. Watch How To Contact RUclips Support 2021 (live chat, email, community, twitter) ruclips.net/video/4QyYub8sCKs/видео.html
This is our next step. Not sure if we already have the right (amount of) audience but if you don't try you don't know, right?! Thanks for the tips and step by step set up.
I'm working on setting up memberships and don't see where I can make a post just for a higher tier membership. I only see an option to post to the public or ALL members. Will this change once I actually launch memberships?
Drost, do you know how to enable 6 month discount for memberships for new members ? I've seen channels offer 20%, 40%, and this was built into youtube. I just dont know how to do it.
I haven't seen that yet..let me know if you do. Here's more info about channel memberships support.google.com/youtube/answer/7636690?hl=en&ref_topic=7581081
I have another question: this kind of membership is useful for launching courses? I mean course with many videos, but also pdf materials and tests, a higher complexity. Thanks
Check RUclips's policies and community guidelines. The different levels contain perks but don't have much room for descriptions so you may have to take people off RUclips (ie sales page) to view more info. Keep in mind YT takes 30% so if you make $100,000 they keep 30,000. You may be better off using software like Teachables or Kajabi to sell your courses so you can keep more of the revenue
Great tips Herman! I will definitely be exploring this now that I'm monetized. I do have a question 🤔 someone who decides to join the perks do they have access to previous videos live streams uploaded etc in previous months or do they only access to the content from the month that they join onwards?
Been trying to help a creator I follow on answering some of these questions so I shared your video with her. 2 questions I had First do you know if the pricing is still the same for the various membership levels? such as you show at 2 minutes into the video? Second lets use LOW as the example in the video it shows Low level to be .99 cents to $3.99 per month. Can the fan select the amount in this range like lets say I wanted to follow her at .99 cents a month but you say really enjoyed the content and wanted to offer $3.50 a month can the fan select how much they want to support in this low tier? (Same with upper tiers) Thanks!
1. Here are the current pricing levels for North America..support.google.com/youtube/answer/10119895?hl=en&ref_topic=9153998 2. You can offer different membership levels and price points for members to choose from. You can also upgrade or downgrade your membership levels
@@Drostvideo Regarding Answer 1 perfect thanks thats what we needed to know Regarding Answer 2 not so sure. What I needed to know is this. Lets say you and I both joined my friends channel for example OK We both join at the low level which seemed to be .99 center - $3.99 based on the chart in your video. So based on this can I join at .99 and you join at $3.99 if she only set a .99 cent low support level? meaning can a fan sort of custom support the creator with their own desired level so long as it reaches minimum to join the channel (.99) Causes sounds like she can only have a certain number of level choices in her options so wanted to see on this should a user want to join at a different level amount that might not be in the list of join levels.
@@scottish785 can I join at .99 and you join at $3.99 if she only set a .99 cent low support level. Not unless levels have been set ahead of time by the creator
@@Drostvideo is there a limit on how many levels she can set up or can she add all levels is she chose? Just trying to help her with some questions she had
@@Drostvideo thank you for your reply and you have helped be grow my business channel. You really have clear and great videos, I have lots to learn and learning from you has been great. thank you! Hoping for this pop up in the future for "JOIN" membership. Would be a great addition to the channel
Hello, I got my confirmation email that i've been accepted to the youtube partnership program a few days ago but when I go to monetization I only have the option to turn Ads and Super chat but no membership. Why is that? Please help if you can. Thank you in advance!
Congrats! Often times it's not immediate so you may have to be patient. For example membership requirements used to be 30K subscribers but I didn't get it until I had 70K subscribers
Thank you so much for sharing this information I have just added memberships to my channel and I’m trying to get all the information that I can on how to make it successful
Herman, get a second camera and set it up to you right or left. Then instead of turning your head to your upper left to make a sidebar comment, turn and look at the second camera. I would recommend the footage of the second camera be in black and white to give it a more stark appearance. You might want to even use your smartphone as a third camera for when you want to ask yourself a question and have the smartphone alter your image to make you look like a bear, woman, etc. Doing both will greatly improve your video production value.
Thanks for your suggestions..I've used my Go Pro as a second camera like in this video...ruclips.net/video/qwTGMyWRYbo/видео.html so will give it another shot or use my new iPhone 12 Pro which also takes great video....hadn't thought about altering the image though
@@Drostvideo Altering the image when you're asking yourself a question thus making it more appear to be someone else asking it than yourself. I would also recommend you have your smartphone change your voice to add to the effect.
@@Drostvideo thanks but I think that will be a problem because my neighbor keeps making FALSE claims on my channel & RUclips takes down my videos and I have to appeal so now I AM GLAD to get ONE view for about 26 seconds I am being treated VERY RUDELY HERE & I DON'T APPRECIATE IT

I still need help with this. For some reason it don’t work for me?? I dont have the membership section at the top when I click monetisation.

Members only community posts will only be seen by members (new ones included)
thank you, which is the way to activate that direct payment button? some creaters are using that one also. thank you!

@@Drostvideo Much appreciated.
I'm planning a YT Membership platform soon. So who do I watch for advice on how to start? The King of YT info, of course. Thanks, Herman.
Congrats on taking action
I'm working on setting up memberships and don't see where I can make a post just for a higher tier membership. I only see an option to post to the public or ALL members. Will this change once I actually launch memberships?
Yes, On the community tab you have these options ...public, all channel members and any specific level you add and higher
@@Drostvideo ok thank you!
Can i edit my membership amount? Can you please teach me how?
the membership button doesn't exist for me in the monetization in youtube studio
I recommend live chatting with creator support support in youtube studio (top right icon next to question mark)
you have to complete the 3 steps that come first to be accepted in the program, then you'll be able to.
@@Drostvideo update i got access to membership!
@@Antoncool3000 awesome..congratulations
Thanks for the share of your video. Big like and very interesting and big help

@@TravelwithMonicaLazar I've never heard of it but looks good
Thanks for this video. I was looking to see how long it takes for youtube to setup my memberships. Now I know 24 hours
Glad to help
Wow I didn't know that thanks Drost!
Glad they changed the requirements from 30,000 subscribers to 1000 subscribers

If you've included those in the membership they'll get them when they join. You can also add different prices and levels

@@JackDecker63 good idea. thx
It is similar with Patreon this service. Maybe you make a video about what they have in common and what are differences. Thanks!
Great suggestion! One of the main benefits is that Channel Memberships is well integrated with RUclips, unlike Patreon
Thank you! I wish you a Happy & Healthy New Year! Do not Worry and Be Happy, no matter what!
great info
Thx for the feedback Heather
for the people having trouble, you need to be a youtube partner before you can access this page.
correct
I will soon join when I reach amount of subs and watching hours
Absolutely...one step at a time will get you there
Thanks for this info I FINALLY got to 1000 subs but NOW I need to get the 4000 hours watch time so I'll be doing more live streams soon
Awesome...I hope you get there soon
