Business on affiliate programs
Earning money on YouTube
How to start working with the most famous affiliate program in the CIS? Selection criteria for channels, benefits of cooperation and income levels in the Yoola affiliate network.
The relatively recently appeared brand “Yoola” (formerly the official website of “VSP-Group”) has gained a strong position and a place among the world’s ten largest partner media networks. Three hundred thousand channels, seven hundred million subscribers, over eight billion monthly views - these achievements were the result of a thoughtful marketing policy and unusual approaches to promoting a commercial product.
Yoola not only distributes video content, but also creates it in its own studio, and also helps creators develop professionally and creatively. Some participants believe that this is the best affiliate program for YouTube, and there is some basis for this opinion. However, there is also criticism that no one has yet been able to avoid.
Affiliate program Yoola (VSP Group)
The story will be about how to become a partner of this program with maximum benefit, what is needed for this and what results can be achieved.
What does the partner get?
Of course, the main incentive for cooperation with any affiliate program is the material factor. In connection with this circumstance, it should be noted that VST Group (now Yoola) offers the following benefits:
- Up to 80% of income from advertising placed on copyrighted video content;
- Possibility of posting videos on various popular platforms: Odnoklassniki, VKontakte, YouTube and others;
- Monthly payment of funds due in the most convenient ways, including PayPal, Webmoney (in rubles WMR or US dollars WMZ, by mail transfer, etc.);
- Participation in trainings, seminars and webinars, during which Yoola’s in-house specialists are ready to advise partners on any issues related to increasing attendance and, accordingly, income;
- Reliable technical support, assistance in setting up a channel, promotion and optimization, analytics and any other issues related to working with YouTube.
- Measures to protect intellectual property rights, in particular combating unauthorized copying of content;
- Direct access to all statistical data online, in particular, information on the accrual of funds;
Criteria for selecting platforms to participate in the program
The requirements for a partner channel in Yoola are not very numerous, but compliance with them is an indispensable condition for participation:
- The initial level of attendance is not lower than 10 thousand with 3 thousand visitors per month;
- At least five hundred subscribers;
- Operating time of at least a month;
- A positive result of checking the channel for violation of copyright law and invalid impressions (or rather, their absence) in relation to the video and audio programs used in the material. To carry out an audit, it is necessary to ensure open access to statistical data;
- The resource owner is at least 14 years old. It should be taken into account that partnership agreements with all persons under the age of majority (18 years) are drawn up by legally capable parents or guardians;
- The channel has already posted five or more videos.
Compliance with these requirements practically guarantees connection to the Yoola affiliate program. Further success depends on how interesting the videos offered are to viewers and to what extent they comply with the rules established by YouTube. If the last condition is violated, the partner may be denied monetization.
Procedure for concluding an agreement
The procedure for establishing partnerships involves going through the following stages:
- Submitting an application and processing it within three days (72 hours). If this deadline is violated, the applicant has the right to contact the technical support service for clarification;
- Receive notification of connection. It is sent to the email address specified in the channel registration data on YouTube and at the same time is an invitation to partnership;
- The response (acceptance of the invitation) is made in the control panel of the YouTube channel;
At this point, the process of establishing a partnership is considered complete.
Prohibitions on partnerships
From the previous paragraph, the criteria for admission to the cooperation program with Yoola are clear, and therefore it would be possible to understand which applicants are barred from entering by simply using the inversion method, but still, for reliability, all the taboos are listed on the website yoola.com.
Among them:
- Violation of the rules established by the YouTube community in relation to intellectual property;
- Any dubious activity manifested in “increasing” the number of views or subscribers, or even suspicion of it;
- Insulting the feelings of viewers and bloggers;
- Metadata generated for the purpose of misleading (video intros, titles, tags, categories, etc.).
Yoola's refusal to partner is not a “final verdict.” The owner of an information resource most often has the opportunity to find out its causes, eliminate them and, after a set period, re-submit an application on a general basis. However, there are also cases when the applicant is not explained why his application was rejected, and he can only guess about it. This is usually an easy task.
Similar rules and restrictions apply to the Belarusian “twin” site yoola.by.
Withdrawal of funds
The first thing a new participant in the Yula affiliate program needs to do when logging into their personal account is to select a withdrawal system and enter payment details. It offers the following enrollment methods:
- Electronic wallets PayPal, Webmoney and Yandex Money;
- Money transfers UniStream, Western Union and MoneyGram;
- Transferring funds to VISA/MasterCard bank cards (for Russian citizens);
- Cashless payment (for legal entities).
In order to increase the comfort of participants, this list will be expanded in the near future.
Payments are made once a month according to the offer agreement.
Payout percentage
| Share of remuneration from total income, % | Monthly resource traffic |
| 70 | > 500 000 |
| 75 | 500 000 – 1 000 000 |
| 80 | < 1 000 000 |
Payment for views for each channel will be different, it all depends on its topic and the cost of this advertising itself. On average, we can assume that per thousand views you can get an income from 0.8 to 3 dollars.
Wherein The size of the minimum payments depends on the chosen system:
- The most “democratic” methods are WebMoney (from 1 WMZ and 15 WMR) and Yandex.Money (15 rubles);
- PayPal has the same lower limit - only $1;
- Using the Payoneer payment system, you can withdraw an amount of more than $15 inclusive;
- Unistream MoneyGram and Western Union -$30 and above;
- The amounts withdrawn to VISA/MasterCard cards are not less than a thousand rubles.
Technical support
Even critics of the Yoola.com program praise the support of the participants. Firstly, it responds very quickly compared to similar services of other partner sites, where you sometimes have to wait for days for a response. Secondly, support really works during the working week, that is, except Saturday and Sunday, from ten in the morning to seven in the evening. All questions are asked on the online chat of the company’s official website www.yoola.com in the widget located on the right, at the bottom of the page. Almost all users note the high professionalism of TP managers and their willingness to provide assistance.
Music for advertising video content
As already mentioned at the beginning of the article, the affiliate program for making money on YouTube not only posts content, but also contributes in every possible way to the creative process of its reproduction. One of the means of expressing the general concept of a product is traditionally musical accompaniment. The Yoola.pro resource offers participants a colossal music library, including tens of thousands of audio files, which video makers can use without fear of violating anyone’s copyright. Of course, not all affiliate programs provide such a preference, not to mention the very idea of a creative studio.
Yoola or ScaleLab
Bloggers who have experience participating in various affiliate programs collaborating with YouTube, for the most part, have already compiled a kind of rating based on their own ideas about profitability, convenience and other comparison criteria.
Despite the subjectivity of the assessment, there are no other ways of comparison, so it’s worth listening to what they say.
The top three affiliate programs include:
3rd place. ScaleLab – they promise to share advertising revenues in a ratio of 80/20% in favor of the partner. In fact, they pay less, and much less.
2nd place. AIR – understates view statistics (according to bloggers), and owners of “small sites” may not get paid at all. It provides practically no assistance in promotion (again, we should remember the subjectivity of the opinions expressed).
1st place. Yoola - of course she is criticized, but she is also praised for the following reasons:
- The presence of a software analyzer that allows you to reliably judge statistics (number of subscribers, traffic, etc.) in almost real time, albeit with some delay due to the daily data provision schedule.
- The technical support service received flattering words for the fact that the waiting time for a response usually does not exceed an hour.
- Huge music library.
- Monetization in Odnoklassniki and VK
- Display information about all rule changes on YouTube on the main page.
- Clear automatic withdrawal of commissions.
According to reviews, Yoola is ahead of its closest competitors in almost all criteria, with the exception of some related to Adsence, which is explained by YouTube’s full support of “its” Google partner (also a subjective assessment).
What users say about Yoola
Many users access Yula via redirection, typing VSP Group out of habit in the search bar. Reviews about the affiliate program are most often good, but there are also critical ones, which, of course, should be paid attention to, if only to avoid disappointments that are usually typical for beginners who have gained some experience.
The causes of frustration, as a rule, are the following unfulfilled expectations:
- The payout percentage of up to 80% is announced. In reality, you should understand that it is not so easy to achieve the maximum amount, and it is best to focus on the indicated 70% of the company’s income brought in as a result of the partner’s actions.
- New entrants believe their earnings will skyrocket compared to AdSence payouts. This can happen, but not at the expense of a larger percentage for videos posted on YouTube. The reason most often is the monetization of traffic on Odnoklassniki and VKontakte. The fact is that Google, which owns YouTube, will take its own in any case, and the remaining amount, which is Yoola’s net income, will be divided.
- Using the Yula music library provides great opportunities. This is true, but it should be borne in mind that this preference is valid only during the period of cooperation with the program. If a partner decides to terminate the agreement, then all videos produced by him, in which soundtracks from the Yoola.pro collection are used, lose their purity from the point of view of copyright, and they may be banned. Thus, music, supposedly free, plays the role of “cheese in the trap”, and the right to use it should be treated with extreme caution so that the efforts expended are not wasted.
- Participation in webinars, seminars and other training programs is of great benefit. This is certainly true, but it should be remembered that the best type of education is self-acquired knowledge. Experienced partners sometimes express the opinion that they have not learned anything new. The reason is probably not that no attempt was made to teach them anything, it’s just that they already know quite a lot.
- Owners of “small” YouTube channels sometimes complain about the weakness of the measures taken by Yoola in the direction of their
And what are the main advantages of YouPartnerWSP over other media networks!
If you have your own channel, to which you add videos that interest viewers from time to time, then sooner or later you will want to make money from it. It is likely that yesterday’s hobby can develop into something more than a simple hobby and, over time, become the main source of income. After all, you must agree: it is much more pleasant to sit at home, spending a maximum of a couple of hours a day shooting and editing new videos, than to travel every day in “packed” minibuses and buses to the hated place of work.
In this article I will tell you what the YouPartnerWSP affiliate program is and list the main advantages of YouPartnerWSP. With its help, you can fulfill your long-awaited dream of making full and honest money on the Internet!
But let's wait a little with this for now, and first consider the question - why is YouPartnerWSP given such special attention and what is its difference from other affiliate programs, of which there are countless on the Internet?
Benefits of the YouPartnerWSP affiliate program
Let's start with the fact that this is a completely Russian affiliate program and, to be honest, from my experience, I have never seen anything like it on the Internet. I may have come across a couple of Russian-language affiliate programs from time to time, but they were outright fraudulent or not worth much attention.
Payments of the money you earn are made to your Webmoney wallet or to any other payment system you need. If we take into account other affiliate programs, they usually pay out money only through PayPal, which is a huge disadvantage for those Youtube users who live in the CIS countries. After all, in order to subsequently withdraw money from this payment system, you will have to try hard; To do this, you will need to convert the amount into Webmoney using services specially designed for this, losing a significant amount of interest. If you live in Russia, then you can transfer money to Webmoney much easier by simply using the Rapida service, but that’s not about that now.
How much does YouPartnerWSP pay?, can you ask? This affiliate program pays its partners up to 80% of the total amount they earn. For example, if you collect 100 dollars on your channel, then this media network will take only 20 dollars upon payment, and the rest of the amount will be automatically credited to your wallet, which is really a huge plus. Unfortunately, users whose channels receive less than one hundred thousand views per month will receive not 80 percent of all earnings, but 70. To receive all 80, you must have more than one hundred thousand views per month. Also, the percentages depend on the topic of your channel. That is, if you are making a video on a music theme, then the percentage will be 75, and if about cyberspace (reviews, let's plays, etc.) - then 70.
At the moment, the media network website is running a promotion according to which, in order to become a YouPartnerWSP partner, you must have at least 50 subscribers and 3000 views per month. Yes, exactly per month, and not in general. It's not much different than if you wanted to get an official affiliate program. In addition, this media network sometimes accepts less popular channels, helps them develop and does not stop cooperation even if the channel has less than 3,000 views. If you have a channel that meets the above requirements, then hurry up to get an affiliate program from YouPartnerWSP.
Also, the YouPartnerWSP affiliate program has an interesting feature that is not found in most other media networks - this is a referral system. With its help, you can significantly increase your total income by simply attracting new users to the system, i.e. partners. For each referral you attract, you will receive up to 15 percent of the media network’s commission. You can attract referrals by posting your referral link on various websites, forums and blogs. Just try not to use the “spam” method.

Videos are not monetized after connecting to YouPartnerWSP. What to do?
If you have connected the affiliate program from YouPartnerWSP, but video monetization does not appear on the channel, then most likely you have not activated your Personal Area. To activate it, try going to the spam folder on your channel and see if there is a corresponding message from the media network with an activation link. If not, then I advise you to go to the YouPartnerWSP media network website itself and write a message to technical support asking them to activate your personal account. In your message, please include your YouTube channel address and email. They should help you.

One of the most popular affiliate programs for YouTube is the VSP Group affiliate program, which is very popular among channel owners on this video hosting site, as it can bring in a lot of money. Let's take a closer look at what this program is.
What is the VSP Group affiliate program?
The VSP affiliate program is one of the largest affiliate programs, more focused on the market of the CIS countries. Despite the fact that the main users of this affiliate program are channels from the former CIS countries, the program is also represented in Europe and is trying to capture the American market, however, so far it has not been entirely successful.
At the time of writing, the number of channels in the affiliate program is 8052, although in reality there may be much more channels, since several channels can work on one YouTube account. The total number of video views on this media network is about 370 million.
An important fact is that VSP Group is a certified YouTube content aggregator. This status indicates that the specialists of this company are able to help channel owners achieve more views and greater promotion for their own channels.
The main office of the VSP Group is located in Israel, the company probably has several additional offices, however, nothing has been heard about them yet.
What requirements must the channel meet?
There are two types of requirements, so-called official and informal.
Official:
- The owner of the channel must be over 14 years old (payments can only be received by those over 18 years old, but if the partner is under 18 years old, in this case the agreement can be drawn up in the name of parents or, for example, guardians).
- The channel is more than 1 month old.
- The video content posted on the channel respects all copyrights and there are no violations of them.
- There are at least 10 videos on the channel.
- The channel has a positive reputation on YouTube.
Unofficial:
- Just 5 videos on the channel are enough.
- Non-authored videos are also suitable.
- Age cannot be verified by anyone.
Financial part of the affiliate program from VSP Group
The financial part of any affiliate program is the most interesting point, as for this case, the VSP affiliate program uses the Revshare scheme for payments. At the moment, the affiliate program has the following working conditions:
- If the number of commercial impressions on the channel is up to 500,000, then 70% is paid.
- If the number of commercial impressions on the channel is from 500,000 to 1,000,000, then 75% is paid.
- If the number of commercial impressions exceeds 1,000,000, then 80% is paid.
A commercial view is one during which the user was shown an advertisement. Most often, the number of such views is about 30% of the total number of views on the channel.
How to attract clients from teaser networks
All payments are made every month, as evidenced by the experience of many webmasters who participate in this affiliate program, throughout its existence there have never been any delays.

As evidenced by reviews on many sites and on social networks, this affiliate program has a very good reputation and very often you can find the most positive reviews about it. Many people praise the work of technical support, as it works very well and always responds almost instantly.
Many note that the attitude towards channels on average is very good, however, it may vary slightly; if, for example, a channel has a small number of views, then attention to it will be slightly less than to a channel that has more serious indicators in terms of views.
How to connect your channel to the affiliate program from VSP Group?
In order to connect your own channel to the affiliate program, you need to follow the official link. Then click on the “Submit Application” button, which will immediately be visible on the site. Subsequently, the system redirects you to the channel check window. This window analyzes the statistical indicators of your channel. At this stage, you should be asked for access to your channel, do not worry about this, as this is necessary for two purposes: to identify that you are the owner of the channel and to obtain all the necessary statistics on the channel.
After the channel check is completed, a message should appear on the screen saying that within 72 hours managers will make a decision about adding your channel to affiliate program, about which a message should be sent by email. If you do not receive a response to your email within 72 hours, you must contact technical support.
Sometimes letters from this affiliate program may end up in spam for one reason or another, so if you add your channel to the affiliate program and do not see the letter, be sure to check your spam as well.
Although the add time takes 72 hours, channels are usually added much faster, almost always within 24 hours.
After your channel is added to the affiliate program, you should receive an email with activation data, with which you can log into your personal account and gain access to all the necessary statistics and all the necessary settings.
