How to Check if a Single YouTube Video is Monetized

Checking Monetization on a Per-Video Basis
Sometimes you don't need to check a whole channel, just a single video. This is useful for advertisers looking for placement opportunities or creators analyzing competitor strategies. A youtube video monetization checker is the perfect tool for this job.
Why Check a Single Video?
A channel might be monetized, but the creator can choose to disable ads on specific videos. Checking a single video tells you:
- If that specific piece of content is actively generating ad revenue.
- The types of ads being run on it.
- If it's a high-performing video that's key to the channel's income.
How to Use a Video Monetization Checker
The process is identical to checking a channel:
- Go to the YouTube video you want to check.
- Copy the video's URL.
- Paste it into the YTMonetizer.com checker.
The tool will analyze the video and provide a monetization status specific to that URL, along with estimated earnings for that video alone.
Manual Checks for Video Monetization
You can also look for manual signs like the presence of mid-roll ad markers (yellow dots) on the video timeline if you have YouTube Premium, or simply watch the video to see if ads appear. However, for a definitive and data-rich answer, a dedicated youtube monetization checking tool is always superior.
