For all those old videos uploaded before February 24, YouTube’s gonna be automatically sliding in these new ad spots at the chill moments. Just remember, if your video’s got those interruptive ads, the paycheck might shrink post-May 12 – YouTube’s fair warning.
Creators who prefer to handpick where the mid-roll ads go should think about whether they’re ruining the vibe for the viewers né?. YouTube just dropped some news about changing up mid-roll ads to keep us all happy campers while watching videos and help creators rake in more cash. Folks who mixed auto and manual mid-roll ads reportedly saw their YouTube ad revenue shoot up by more than 5% compared to the manual-only squad.
And hey, cutting down on those annoying ads could help creators keep more eyeballs on their videos, according to YouTube. But if creators want full control, they can opt-out in YouTube Studio. That’s why YouTube’s rolling out a new feature that’ll give them a heads-up if the ads would sit better at a smoother moment rather than crashing the party.
Also, YouTube’s suggesting that creators who’ve been playing ad placement superhero should let the system take the wheel here and there for a better balance. Basically, starting on May 12, we’re gonna see fewer ads popping up in the middle of someone’s epic monologue or action scene
