The relatively recently appeared Yoola brand (previously the official website of VSP-Group) has gained a strong position and a place among the top ten largest partner media networks in the world. Three hundred thousand channels, seven hundred million subscribers, over eight billion monthly views - these achievements were the result of a well-thought-out 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 members believe that this is the best affiliate program for YouTube, and there are certain reasons for this opinion. However, there is also criticism, which no one has yet been able to avoid.
Affiliate 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 in cooperation with any affiliate program is the material factor. In this regard, it should be noted that VST Group (now Yoola) offers the following benefits:
- Up to 80% of revenue from advertising placed on author's video content;
- The ability to post 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, transfer by mail, etc.);
- Participation in trainings, seminars and webinars, during which Yoola's full-time specialists are ready to advise partners on any issues related to increasing attendance and, accordingly, income;
- Reliable technical support, assistance in channel setup, promotion and optimization, analytics and any other issues related to working with YouTube.
- Measures to protect intellectual property rights, in particular countering unauthorized copying of content;
- Direct access to all statistical data online, in particular, to 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 less than 10 thousand with 3 thousand visitors per month;
- At least five hundred subscribers;
- Working time not less than a month;
- A positive result of checking the channel for violation of copyright laws and invalid impressions (or rather, their absence) in relation to the video and audio programs used in the material. For the implementation of the audit, it is necessary to ensure the opening of access to statistical data;
- The resource owner must be at least 14 years old. At the same time, it should be taken into account that with all persons under the age of majority (18 years old), partnership agreements are drawn up by capable parents or guardians;
- The channel has already posted five videos or more.
Compliance with these requirements practically guarantees connection to the Yoola affiliate program. Continued success depends on the extent to which the proposed videos will be of interest to viewers and to what extent they comply with the rules set by YouTube. In case of violation of the last condition, the partner may be denied monetization.
The procedure for concluding an agreement
The procedure for establishing partnerships involves the following steps:
- Submission of an application and its processing within three days (72 hours). In case of violation of this period, the applicant has the right to contact the technical support service for clarification;
- Receive connection notification. It is sent to the email address specified in the registration data of the channel on YouTube and at the same time is an invitation to a partnership;
- The answer (acceptance of the invitation) is made in the control panel of the YouTube channel;
On this, the process of establishing a partnership is considered completed.
Partnership Prohibitions
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 were ordered to go there simply by using the inversion method, but still, for reliability, all taboos are listed on the yoola.com website.
Among them:
- Violation of the rules established by the YouTube community in relation to intellectual property;
- Any dubious activity manifested in "cheating" the number of views or subscribers, or even suspicion of it;
- Insulting the feelings of viewers and bloggers;
- Metadata formed for the purpose of misleading (video intros, titles, tags, categories, etc.).
Yoola's withdrawal from the partnership 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 specified period, re-apply 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.
Withdrawals
The first thing a new member of the Yula affiliate program needs to do when logging into his personal account is to select a money withdrawal system and enter payment details. It offers the following payment methods:
- Electronic wallets PayPal, Webmoney and Yandex Money;
- UniStream, Western Union and MoneyGram money transfers;
- Crediting funds to VISA/MasterCard bank cards (for Russian citizens);
- Bank transfer (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 website 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 subject and the cost of this very advertisement. On average, we can assume that per thousand views you can get income from 0.8 to 3 dollars.
Wherein The amount of the minimum payout 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;
- With the Payoneer payment system, you can withdraw an amount of more than $ 15 inclusive;
- Unistream MoneyGram and Western Union -$30 and up;
- Amounts withdrawn to VISA / MasterCard cards - not less than a thousand rubles.
Technical support
The support of the participants is praised even by critics of the Yoola.com program. Firstly, it responds very quickly compared to similar services of other partner sites, in which you sometimes have to wait for a response for days. Secondly, support really works during the working week, that is, except for Saturday and Sunday, from ten in the morning to seven in the evening. All questions are asked on the online chat of the official website of the company 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 readiness to provide assistance.
Music for promotional video content
As mentioned at the beginning of the article, the affiliate program for making money on YouTube not only hosts 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 the product is traditionally musical accompaniment. The Yoola.pro resource offers participants a colossal music library, including tens of thousands of audio files, which clip makers can use without fear of violating someone'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 of participating in various affiliate programs cooperating with YouTube, for the most part, have already compiled their kind of rating based on their own ideas about profitability, convenience, and other comparison criteria.
With all the subjectivity of the assessment, there are no other ways to compare, so you should listen to what they say.
The top three affiliate programs include:
3rd place. ScaleLab - Promise an 80/20% share of advertising revenue in favor of a partner. In fact, they pay less, and much more.
2nd place. AIR - underestimates the statistics of views (according to bloggers), and the owners of "small sites" may not be paid at all. It practically does not provide assistance in promotion (again, one should remember the subjectivity of the judgments made).
1st place. Yoola - of course, they criticize her, but they also praise her for the following reasons:
- The presence of a software analyzer that allows you to reliably judge the statistics (the number of subscribers, attendance, etc.) almost in real time, albeit with some delay due to the daily schedule for providing data.
- The technical support service received flattering words for the fact that the response time usually does not exceed an hour.
- Huge music library.
- Monetization in Odnoklassniki and VK
- Conclusion to home page information about any rule changes on YouTube.
- 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 all-out support of "its" Google partner (also a subjective assessment).
What users say about Yoola
Many users go to Yulu by redirection, typing out of habit in the search bar VSP Group. Reviews about the affiliate program are mostly good, but there are also critical ones, which, of course, should be paid attention to at least in order to avoid disappointments that are usually characteristic of beginners who have gained some experience.
The reasons for frustration, as a rule, are the following unfulfilled expectations:
- Payout percentage up to 80% is announced. In reality, it should be understood that it is not so easy to achieve the maximum value, and it is best to focus on the indicated 70% of the company's income brought as a result of the partner's actions.
- New members find their earnings will skyrocket compared to AdSense payouts. This can happen, but not at the expense of a higher percentage for videos posted on YouTube. The reason most often is the monetization of attendance on Odnoklassniki and VKontakte. The fact is that Google, which owns YouTube, will take its own anyway, and the remaining amount, which is Yoola's net income, is subject to division.
- 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 the partner decides to terminate the agreement, then all videos produced by him, in which phonograms from the Yoola.pro collection are used, lose their purity in terms of copyright, and they may be banned. Thus, music, supposedly free, plays the role of “cheese in a mousetrap”, and the right to use it should be treated with extreme caution so that the effort expended is not wasted.
- Participation in webinars, seminars and other training programs brings great benefits. This is certainly true, but it should be remembered that the best kind of education is self-learning. Experienced partners sometimes express the opinion that they have not learned anything new. The reason is probably not that they have not been taught anything, they just know how to do quite a lot.
- The owners of "small" YouTube channels sometimes complain about the weakness of the measures taken by Yoola in the direction of their
Affiliate programs are one of the main sources of income for many webmasters nowadays. There are many affiliate programs on the Internet that are a good way to monetize your own site and its traffic. There are also affiliate programs for well-known social networks and video hosting sites.
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, as it can bring a lot of money. Let's take a closer look at what this program is.
What is a 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 the channels of 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 completely successful.
At the time of this writing, the number of channels in the affiliate program is 8052, although in reality there can be much more channels, since several channels can work on one YouTube account. The total number of video views in 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 more promotion for their own channels.
The main office of the VSP Group is located in Israel, for sure, the company has several additional offices, however, nothing has been heard about them yet.
What requirements must the channel meet?
There are two types of requirements, the so-called official and informal.
Official:
- The owner of the channel must be over 14 years old (only those over 18 years old can receive payments, but if the partner is under 18 years old, in this case, the agreement can be drawn up for parents or, for example, guardians).
- The channel is over 1 month old.
- In the video content posted on the channel, all copyrights are respected 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:
- Only 5 videos per 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 Revsher scheme for payments. On this moment, the partner 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 between 500,000 and 1,000,000, then 75% is paid.
- If the number of commercial impressions exceeds 1,000,000, then 80% is paid.
Commercial viewing is the viewing 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 customers from teaser networks
All payments are made every month, as evidenced by the experience of many webmasters who participate in this affiliate program, for all the time of its existence, there have never been any delays.
What they say about VSP on the Internet
As evidenced by the reviews on many sites, and in in social networks this affiliate program has a very good reputation and very often you can find the most positive reviews about it. Many praise the work of technical support, as it works very well and always responds almost instantly.
Many note that the attitude towards channels is on average very good, however, it can vary slightly, if for example a channel has a small number of views, then attention to it will be slightly less than to the channel that has more serious indicators in terms of views.
How to connect your channel to an 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. Later, the system redirects you to the channel check window. This window analyzes the statistics of your channel. At this stage, you should be asked to access your channel, don't worry about it, as this is necessary for two purposes: to identify that you are the owner of the channel and to get all the necessary statistics on the channel.
After the channel check is over, a message should appear on the screen stating that within 72 hours the managers will decide whether to add your channel to affiliate program, about which the message should come to email. If you do not receive an answer to your e-mail within 72 hours, you must contact the technical support service.
Sometimes emails from this affiliate can end up in spam for one reason or another, so if you add your channel to the affiliate and don't see the email, be sure to check your spam as well.
Although the addition time is 72 hours, channels are usually added much faster, almost always within 24 hours.

Hello colleagues.
Affiliate for YouTube is essential if you decide to monetize your videos, protect them from copying, and the channel itself from blocking. And if you choose among all affiliate programs, then I choose to work only with the best affiliate program. Media network Yoola VSP is in the TOP 10 largest media networks, is the official aggregator of YouTube.
After connecting the affiliate program, you have the following opportunities:
You will be able to monetize your videos, receive payouts and constantly learn at free affiliate webinars. 24/7 technical support will answer any of your questions. And your videos will be protected by copyright.
Media Network of Partner Channels Yoola (VSP Group)
I propose to analyze the affiliate program VSP Group (YouPartnerWSP) in a little more detail according to the following criteria:
Connection Requirements
Channels with hundreds of 3000 views / month are allowed to the VSP Group affiliate program, while the number of subscribers must be from 50. And also a prerequisite is the absence of "strike" (warnings, complaints).
Requirements, I think the most minimal. If your channel has lower indicators, then it makes no sense to connect it to an affiliate program. Because you will not earn money on such a channel.
If you created a channel to make money on it, then think about an affiliate program with 1000 subscribers and 5000 views per month. You won't earn anything before. Better work on the strategy and promotion of the channel so that it gains weight and has growth prospects.
Payouts, commission and transfer methods
Earned funds are transferred 45 days later on the second month after the reporting one, for example, if you connected the channel on September 1, then you will receive payment for September no earlier than November 15th. Transfer money to electronic wallets Webmoney, PayPal, Yandex money and bank card. There are no problems with the withdrawal of funds and the withdrawal methods are constantly increasing.
Media professionals charge a commission for their services, this is a natural situation. The VSP affiliate program has the following conditions:
30% - if your channel generates up to 500,000 commercial impressions/month;
25% - from 500,000 to 1,000,000 commercial impressions on the channel per month;
20% - from 1,000,000 commercial impressions per channel per month
I think you have already noticed that the more commercial views, the lower the commission of the media network. At first, you would receive 70% of the channel's income, as you develop and grow, you will be able to take all 80%. I think the conditions are quite fair and reasonable.
CPM
The average cost of commercial impressions in different media networks is different. This is influenced by many factors, one of them is the presence of expensive advertisers. In the VSP media network, the average cost of 1000 commercial impressions fluctuates around $1-5.
I want to be clear right away, video views are not equal to commercial impressions. A commercial impression is the display of an ad or actions with it.
Does it accept non-authored content
Technical support
Technical support of the media network works at the highest level, answers questions on the same day. The company's specialists are the best professionals in the field of producing video content on YouTube.
The means of communication are very diverse, from banal mail to the ability to contact via Skype or in private messages on VKontakte.
Partner training
For partners of the media network, constant webinars and training events, schools and master classes are held. Access to them is possible in your account or in official groups.
Participation in events
An indisputable fact, I believe that VSP holds real events for partners and spectators. The most successful partners are invited to the office in Moscow, and fan meetings are held with them. This is very cool. At official events, the partner program helps with tickets. Master classes are held, the last one was on VideoPeople.
Referral system
There is an opportunity to earn on invitations. For example, you recommended to a friend to connect your channel to the VSP affiliate program, and now you will receive payments from the media network. The recommendation system is single-level. Payments are made constantly in the amount of 10% of the earnings of the media network. Here attention, the media network does not take income from the author of the channel, she gives 10% of her earnings (20-25-30% of which). There are special conditions for active referrals: when connecting from 50 partners, an individual payout percentage.
Possibilities of a personal account
The VSP website has a rather impressive personal account, which maintains detailed statistics on all your channels and reports on all payments. There is also a bonus program (partnerships of games), the ability to create a video site, monetize a group on VKontakte, and a huge music library for your videos.
Troubleshooting, content protection, channel recovery assistance
The media network protects your content using the Content ID system. It also provides assistance to copyright channels in the protection of copyrights and protection from legitimate complaints.
Connect using my referral link and you will receive support and you can ask me questions. Connection link: https://youpartnerwsp.com
