I will share my experience of cooperation with the YuDK affiliate, which is the representative of Scalelab in Russia (previously YuDK was a subnetwork of Scalelab).

1. Personal account YuDK and Scalelab Russia.

There are several tabs in your personal account and let's start with the first - this is the Control Panel. The main statistics of your channel are displayed here: income, views, subscribers, and below your most popular videos are shown and how many views, likes, dislikes, and comments they have.

The “Revenue” tab displays your income for the current month, the previous month, the outstanding balance and the income curve on your YouTube channel.

Below in the same “Revenue” tab the channel’s income history is displayed.

Here you can see how much you earned from your YouTube channel and how much the affiliate took for itself, as well as the commission of the media network. The affiliate takes 30% of the income from your channel. Let's count the channel earned 18.76 dollars, and received 13.13 dollars. 18.76 * 70% = $13.13. That is, we took the channel’s income of $18.76 and multiplied it by the percentage received in this affiliate program (this is 70%) and received the amount that we should receive.

It also shows the CPM of your channel. CPM stands for Cost Per Mille. That is, the average cost per thousand commercial views on the channel was $1.06 in one month, and $1.38 in the previous month.

The “Statistics” tab displays views for the current month, subscribers, average viewing time in minutes, likes, dislikes, comments, the number of shares of your videos, and also displays the “curve” of views from your channel.

The “Payments” tab displays the amount due, the last payment and how much was paid in total, as well as the remaining payments that were made to you in this affiliate program.

There is nothing in the “Communities” tab and it says “Coming soon.” We're moving to a new communities platform with a ton of new features. Stay in touch!

In the “Referrals” tab there is your referral link for an invitation to YouTube network channels.

You can also see how many referrals you invited, how many were unsuitable, and how much income they brought you.


2. Who represents Scalelab Russia?

The main employees of the Skylab Russia affiliate are:

  • Denis Konovalov, aka Konoden. Certified YouTube Specialist. Founder of Scalelab Russia.
  • Vladimir Belyaev. Specialist in marketing, brand promotion, information business. Co-founder of Scalelab Russia.
  • Yulia Zhigalova. Head of PR Projects Department.

3. Support from Scalelab Russia.

4. Video Claimer tool and fight against re-uploads of your videos on YouTube.

Scalelab has a tool that allows you to monetize your videos that are re-uploaded by other users on YouTube.

You can file a claim for a video if someone stole your video on YouTube. Enter the video URL and choose what you want to do with the video.


5. Account settings in your personal account and withdrawal of money to YuDK and Scalelab Russia.

At the top right in your personal account there is a logo of your connected YouTube channel by clicking on which you can open the settings.

In personal settings, you can set the interface language, indicate your email or change it, indicate your first name, last name, phone number, skype.

In the “Payment” tab, you can indicate your full name, country and select a payment method (PayPal, WebMoney, Yandex.Money, QIWIWallet, Payoneer) and indicate the wallet number, mailbox for PayPal, etc.

In the “Password” tab, you can change the password for your personal account.

In the “Marketing” tab, you can indicate your date of birth, gender, primary and secondary genre of your YouTube channel, but this does not affect anything and is only needed to count channels and their topics in the media network. Although, as the inscription says, it will help in the formation of advertising campaigns, it is impossible to know whether this is true or not and no one will give you a report.


6. Advantages of a personal account in YuDK and Scalelab Russia - Research and advice for your channel.

The “Research” tab shows your average views per day, views made by subscribers, how many subscribers are coming to you on average daily, and what is the audience retention on your channel.

"Research - Video" shows you what the optimal length is for your videos and what day of the week has the most views. Also written simple tips for your channel like:

  • Inform your viewers when your videos are released.
  • Ask viewers to subscribe in each video.
  • Complete home page your channel, create playlists, make a channel trailer, provide links to social networks. networks and so on.

In “Research - Audience” you can find out your audience, see the age and gender of your viewers and find out on what devices viewers watch your videos (smartphones, computers, tablets, TV, game consoles). Tips are also given on when it is best to upload your videos.

  • add annotations, hints, closing windows, links to playlists.
  • create beautiful previews and thumbnails for your videos.
  • Use your channel's unique branding tag in all your videos.

Suggestions for improving your channel are also given.

  • Make up the right ones keywords and tags for your videos.
  • Write tags that are similar in topic to your videos.
  • Do not write tags in the video description; there is a place for tags in the video manager.

  • Place your tips on ones that are similar in meaning to the current video or contextually dependent tips. That is, if you talk or mention in your video about a video that you made earlier, then put a hint in this place.
  • If for a long time hints in a certain video do not work (for this you need to look at the effectiveness of hints in YouTube Analytics), then change them to others.
  • Duplicate the links to the videos that you put in your annotations in the video description, because annotations can only be clicked on a computer, and they are not visible on smartphones and tablets.

Here is Konoden's video about this research in his Scalelab account.

ScaleLab is an American company that recently opened a Russian-language representative office. Let's look at the advantages and disadvantages of partner ScaleLab.

Benefits of ScaleLab

  1. An important advantage is the low channel requirements for connecting to the media network:
  • 10 subscribers
  • 1000 views
  • No violations on the channel

At the same time, it is important to remember that it makes no sense to try to connect a zero channel, on which there are only a couple of videos, there is no design, such a channel will not be accepted.

But if you seriously started working on your channel, you can connect to the ScaleLab media network without any problems.

  1. High quality and operational support(only in the Russian-language division). Denis Konovalov’s support staff are responsive and work even on weekends.

If the issue is not resolved locally and requires contacting the central office, there may be delays, but in general everyone will be helped and all problems will be resolved.

  1. Convenient methods of receiving payments and low minimum payout amounts: you will be paid from as little as $1, possible on Webmoney, Qiwi, PayPal, Payoneer, Yandex-money.
  2. Partner training. There is very interesting feature: all partners of the Russian division of the media network can study for free at a very cool YouTube school - http://konoden.infonext.ru/
  3. Flexible revenue sharing rate: basic distribution is 70%, but by developing a channel, you can get up to 95% revenue sharing.

Disadvantages of ScaleLab.

  1. Sometimes your personal account is glitchy, about once a month there is a failure when logging into your personal account.
  2. The network does not like cheaters and owners of channels with unauthorized videos - if they find them, they can shut them down (however, this is now the case in any media network).
  3. Sometimes there are delays in payments, and only on WebMoney (the intermediary bank does not work well). Now the problem is practically solved.

Conclusion. How to connect to the ScaleLab media network?

    Hello! Question, I film walkthroughs of games, and every time they write that rights are being violated, what should I do, it seems like everyone films playthroughs, and what should I do in these cases? I'm deleting songs for now, but it doesn't always work.

    Hello, Denis!
    I got acquainted with your school, listened to your videos and several webinars, it was very interesting and informative for me. Without hesitation, I signed up for the 6th stream, from April 3. 03.23.17 submitted an application to connect to Scalelab Russia. Although before I found out about you, many partners offered me to connect the channel using their affiliate link. I was in no hurry to make decisions because I didn’t see what I needed, I miraculously came across your video, training and help in developing my channel are important to me, now I have to do everything on my own, there is no communication, because there are no people with such interests and I don't have good knowledge. I look forward to your wonderful school. Thank you very much for creating the school and free education! Low bow to you! Sincerely, Antonina Kovaleva1
