Carmina's path to success was paved with challenges and setbacks, but her relentless pursuit of monetization through YouTube AdSense ultimately turned her dreams into reality.

Carmina was at the live streaming of her YouTube friend Ka Doray where is had completed her 3,000 public watch hours. She was allowed to have membership in her channel.

Ka Doray said she asked her husband to do it for her since wanted to make sure was doing it right.

Ka Doray said that she had received an email through the mail. When she processed all the information took one month depending on the location. Something I have heard before those who don't have existing AdSense.

For my case it was different since I have a personal website that is already earning AdSense since 2019. I wasn't sure how to combine my channel using same AdSense. I heard we're only allowed one AdSense per person.

Months had passed and was able to complete my 3,000 public watched hours. I had received a notification to apply now. 

I was thinking it was easy since already have existing AdSense. What I didn't know after applying for my first time there was something needs to be done without thinking was denied the first try. It said there was a minor error to fix. No explanation what the minor error was.

I started watching tutorials on YouTube and nothing was the same case as mine. I tried searching online came from an unsolved solution. 

I asked ChatGPT questions. I was told to link my YouTube to my existing AdSense.

I tried again to apply for step 2 was denied again found out later YouTube was confused because my recovery email was sending it there. I had checked my recovery email there was no incoming email from AdSense. I checked my spam inbox. I deleted my recovery email to take out the confusion. My problem Gmail kept giving a notification need to add a recovery email incase get locked out on main email account.

I searched online some said change the thumbnails in existing old videos. After doing all that decided to reapply step 2 there was still an error. I was getting frustrated at this point and my YouTube friends kept asking for my status for monetization.

I went to ask assistance in YouTube it wasn't helpful went into circles that wasn't solved.

I started asking Gemini on my phone. It said need to wait 32 days when get denied from YouTube. Everyone has informed me there wasn't a limit how many times when reaching from step 2.

I decided to take a break and concentrate on my 4,000 public watched hours to complete.

My YouTube friends said maybe you need to change your email address and separate from my personal website. I decided to create a new Gmail used for my YouTube channel. I had invited it to my AdSense, but it said pending. I also added to my channel, and it said need to create new channel in order access account. Its say's wait seven days.

It didn't sound easy to do more complicated.

I asked Gemini if I can use the same email that is linked to my personal website with existing AdSense with YouTube. It said yes.

After 32 days later I decided to reapply for step 2 in my mind if I don't approve my channel would be an album of memories not earning from it.

Two days later I was approved not sure what was the minor problem since made so many changes during that process of denial. I was just happy to unlock the 3,000. Yet the enrollment of membership was a new lesson to learn though it would be easy. There was a new assignment to complete which need to use your creative side.

I suggest those who are not monetized start thinking each perk membership what titles you would like to call your members. There is a choice of four depending how many levels you would like and payment method with price range.

Get creative with your channel by coming up with unique titles for your memberships. Each tier will have perks on the amount you choose, with the lowest starting at $0.99 and the highest set by you.

When you click on the Loyalty Badges, it will display the standard ones from YouTube, as that’s what I chose, but you also have the option to create your own.

For emojis, this is where you can upload the ones you want your members to use during your live stream while chatting with you and interacting with other viewers online.

Review terms before processing.

Everything is completely filled out there is another 24 hours to be reviewed to access it on your channel.

Doesn't end there are more to fill up. Why you need to do your own research before turn everything in. I feel we are attending YouTube school before we officially graduate.

The rest is up to you on how you want to announce it to your community.

I wish the best to anyone aiming to get their YouTube channel monetized. My advice is to be patient—your time will come when it’s meant to.
