Though some people have been relatively successful in monetizing their YouTube contest in the past, there are a few problems with trying to earn money from YouTube for your videos these days. First off, not everyone has been able to qualify for the option to monetize their content. Secondly, some of those who once were able to no longer are.
For those of you who do have your own original content on YouTube, or for those of you who plan on uploading your videos to that site, I’ll show you an incredibly new way of monetizing that content without looking to YouTube to get a payout.
WATCH THIS VIDEO!
Here is a simple step by step how to of the process explained in the video.
STEP 1 – Create an account for free at https://steemit.com
STEP 2 – Do an “introduceyourself” post and make the steemit community aware of your arrival.
STEP 3 – Check out some posts, upvote the ones you like, and leave some comments.
STEP 4 – Create a steemit post featuring one of your YouTube videos.
STEP 5 – Repeat steps 3 and 4 as desired.
REALLY? IT’S JUST THAT SIMPLE?
First off, nothing is usually simple or easy. Making money online with your original content can be difficult. Often, large companies only want you to make them money, rather than the other way around.
However, steemit.com has changed all of that for people from all over the world. Due to this amazing relatively new platform, people are getting paid just for being themselves. In fact, you don't even need to be a video creator who posts on YouTube. If you like to write, take photographs, cook, or share your adventures, you can share that content at steemit.com and potentially get paid for doing so.
HERE IS A BRIEF LIST OF SOME EXAMPLES OF VIDEO CONTENT I UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE THAT STEEMIT.COM HAS PAID ME FOR

COMPARISON
Honestly, I only have 28 subscribers on YouTube. I have never monetized anything through YouTube and I do not even know how to do it. My income through YouTube has been $0.00. What I do know is that I can and have gotten paid by posting my YouTube videos at steemit.com. The same goes for my stories, jokes, photos, artwork, and other content.
Simply put, a new way to monetize your YouTube videos or any other original content you produce is to get an account at https://steemit.com.
Over the past ten months, I have literally made thousands of dollars on steemit.com. My question to you is, if you are not on steemit.com, why not? Get paid to be you!
Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com
The best part about this is that the content creators can still earn views directly from their videos, so they don't even need to choose between the two. I really don't see any reason not to post their content here in Steemit as well. It is simply a win-win situation.

Great post!
I've been posting my "Daily Hustle" videos here on Steemit since I started the video series on Jan 1.
I'm making some money with my videos, but I do think there is a long term benefit to being here as the Steemit platform grows and eventually hits mainstream.
The early adopters can often reap big rewards.
For me, Steemit is part of a bigger video distribution process that I do with all my videos.
Thanks for the inspiration, Papa-Pepper!

That was my thought. Maybe youtubers will check out the video. Even if they are still getting paid there, why not have two streams of payouts from the same content?

I was thinking of posting one of my videos from YouTube here, bought I thought most would down vote because they would think i'm trying to spam or get extra views. Which is what I want " the extra subs, views, and now that YouTube isn't paying anything the extra cash sounds great. Nice tutorial. I think ill post one of my videos soon.
