How to make money with YouTube

YouTube has a partner programme where you can earn money while making videos, by displaying adverts in your videos.
You've probably seen adverts displayed whilst watching a YouTube video? After a short countdown when the advert is playing you can skip the ad and resume watching the intended videos. This is how they make money.

If there is something you enjoy doing or have a passion for, you can make a video of it. You don't need to be tech savvy. Anyone can edit a video and upload it to YouTube.
How to edit a video using your iPhone or iPad
The easiest app we have used use is iMovie.
It's very easy to use and has the function to upload straight to YouTube.
You can make slide shows using pictures as well as upload videos direct from your phone. Editing is very simple, using your finger to slide the bar on the video can delete a portion of the video.
When you add another video or clip to your project a dissolve from the two will be added automatically (the two triangle. You can change the dissolve to fade, wipe, slide, theme or none by clicking on the two triangles.
Finding background music for your videos gives it a more professional feel and this app provides a few by clicking on the cog (picture). if you would prefer a range of music at a low price then see here.
