YouTube has created an advanced set of
copyright policies and content management tools to give rights holders control of their content. YouTube provides content management solutions for rights holders of all sizes across the world, and provides tools to cater to the specific needs of various rights owners.
Key Points
Before creating a MCN network sign up for some youtube tools,
Content ID
YouTube’s state-of-the-art technologies let rights owners:
Identify user-uploaded videos comprised entirely OR partially of their content, and
Choose, in advance, what they want to happen when those videos are found.
Make money from them. Get stats on them. Or block them from YouTube altogether.
It’s up to you.
Why use Content ID?
Make Money. Hundreds of media companies have signed up already, multiplying their inventory of monetizeable videos.
Fan Interaction. Turn your fans into marketers and distributors of your content—while letting them interact with their favorite content.
Reduce Infringement. Educate your fans about your copyright preferences and prevent your content from being distributed on YouTube without your permission.
Fully Automated. Once you’re set up, Content ID will identify, claim, and apply policies to YouTube videos for you.
Market Data. Access snapshots of your content profile on YouTube, anytime. See how your videos are performing, monetizing, being blocked—at a glance.

Next Steps
To start, you’re going to want to build a following, that is, start a network team (i.e. recruiters, directors, support) and find future partners.
After you’ve done this, you can apply for network ship. Lots of MCNs and VNs offer people Content Aggregate networks, so you’re going to want to look into which company you want to work with. Some networks that accept CAs are Crysis TV, Vultra and VISO. If you want to look serious about starting a network,
you’ll have to put together a business plan and maybe start a website and forums. If you don’t have the expertise, MCNs like Freedom! offer technology support (i.e. they’ll design your website and forums for you) for free to all of their CAs. You should apply to multiple networks for a CA,
and make sure that you’re getting all of the features you want from that network.
Once you’ve got your Content Aggregate network, congratulations! You’ve just started a YouTube network, but you’re far from finished.
You’re trying to become an MCN! Here’s a warning: if you plan to move fast to an MCN, you’re going to want to have a no-lock-in contract, so your partners can transfer easily to your networks.
You need to build a large community, with lots of partners before you move onto the next stage. I’m not an expert on building a following, but I can tell you this, the key to a successful network is that partners can put a face to a name. Make sure to have yourself or a staff member appear, in camera, on your Hub Channel.
Now you’re ready to move on to the next stage: getting a Virtual Network. Some networks like CrysisTV allow you to move to a Virtual Network after you pass certain requirements, but other networks don’t allow CAs to upgrade, so you’ll have to switch networks.
Networks like Acifin, Forela Digital and Zoomin.TV offer VNs, so you should apply with them – especially the latter two, for reasons I will explain later – but Acifin is a lot easier to get a VN with than the other two that I’ve listed.
Once you have a VN, tell all of your partners to unlink with your old network (remember: they’re partnered with your CA, not your VN) and tell them to apply for partnership with your new network.
This is why you need a no-lock-in contract; so your partners can transfer super easily and quickly.
Once you have your VN, don’t stop! Keep recruiting! Some networks like Forela Digital even allow you to have your own line of CAs below you, so you can make extra money there, because you get a cut of each of the CAs’ earnings that are below you! Once you have a very large community, move onto the next step – but be warned. When I say “very large”, I mean extremely large, as in 30,000,000 views per month throughout your entire network.
That’s 1,000,000 per day, or 5,000 partners with 200 views per day. It takes some time to get to this point, so just keep on expanding as you go on – don’t give up if you see a bad month with little partners! If you’re seeing little partners in a month, just try harder the next month!
The final stage: becoming an MCN! It’s the goal you’ve been trying at for ages, and now it’s at your fingertips! There are many ways to transition from a VN to an MCN, but the best way is this:
You’re going to want to apply with Obelisk.TV. They are an MCN incubator company, meaning they’ll talk to Google and get you an MCN, set up a website, design your logos, give you office space and studio space and more! Their requirement is 30,000,000 views per month. Another requirement they have is that you must have a VN under one of their certified MCNs.
Remember I mentioned Forela Digital and Zoomin.TV earlier? Well they’re two of the certified MCNs, which were formed by Obelisk. You can find the others on Obelisk.TV.
If you don’t have a VN under one of their certified MCNs, you can apply for a transfer and they’ll set you up with a new VN under one of their certified MCNs.
That’s it! You’ve started an MCN! Well done!
You went from one person to massive company! Now everything is your decision! Will you allow VNs and CAs under your MCN? How many staff will you hire? Where will your offices be? What will your contract be?
What will the partner requirements be? What percentage of the money a partner makes will go to your MCN? These are all questions that may have been previously answered by the MCN that was in charge of your VN or CA, but now you get to make those decisions! But being an MCN is a lot different than a VN or CA. MCNs have to hire developers to make dashboards and payment system.
They have to buy premium ads for their partners and sub-networks. They have to manage finance and legal procedures. VNs and CAs don’t have to do any of this. Before you embark on your journey to and MCN, just make sure you’re able to deal with this and the pressure of running a company.
