New YouTube Policy: Shorts Now Up to 3 Minutes!
1YouTube Shorts Update: 3-Minute Uploads Explained
In this video, we dive into the recent YouTube policy update that allows you to upload YouTube Shorts up to 3 minutes long. Starting October 15th, any video with a square or vertical aspect ratio under 3 minutes will automatically be categorized as a Short. While this opens new opportunities for creators, it also presents challenges, especially in terms of revenue sharing. Shorts offer a unique monetization model, but their earnings can be significantly lower compared to long-form content.
Many creators, myself included, feel the automatic categorization of videos into Shorts could limit their control, as it removes the option to opt-out. If you have a 2.5-minute video that isn’t designed as a Short, YouTube still classifies it as one. This can impact your video’s visibility and revenue potential. Watch the full video for more insights and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.
