Hi All! I am George Pierce, this post is about Daily Motion, which is one of several alternatives to YouTube. I have been having great luck with Rumble TV, and even though my Rumble channels are new, there are already outpacing their YT counterparts. I have a YT childrens' channel, and was ready to open another childrens' channel on Rumble TV, however, it is geared to an audience of 17 and older. As mentioned, Daily Motion is a YT alternative, and it does childrens' videos. Above is my first upload, and it had 2 views before I was finished posting...which is encouraging.
As far as monetization, DailyMotion requires only 1,000 views in order to monetize (become a partner).
On the other hand, DailyMotion has a lot of negative reviews. It seems that many of the negatives are due to too many ads. Ads are supposedly run every 5 minutes. It might be a good idea to keep videos under 5 minutes.
If you are seeking or considering alternatives to YouTube, I am still fairly new to Rumble TV, and I am pleased. Monetization is immediate and you get paid as soon as you hit $50.
So far, DailyMotion is easy to use, allows for multiple video uploads (up to 10 at once), and makes it easy to share videos. At only a 1,000 view threshold, DailyMotion seems to be easier to make money faster vs. YouTube. None of my research has shown DailyMotion to be unscrupulous or to be avoided.
Thank you for reading.
Much success,
George Pierce

Thank you George Pierce for sharing this information about Dailymotion. It seems they don't have you jumping through many hoops like YT.
While I was researching Dailymotion, I was wanting to see what kind of creator complaints were showing up...( as mentioned, I found too many ads to be the main complaint)...I also researched YT, searching for creator complaints. Sadly, there is a long list. Thank you Terri.
It is way too early, but views are happening. The above videos are less than an hour old.
