## Summary

The video explains how the creator successfully activated monetization on a Facebook page they had abandoned. By reviving the page and posting content consistently for about a week, they enabled all non-streaming ads. The strategy is based on personal experience and also worked for a friend who creates gameplay videos.

### Key Points

- **Monetization Activated** [00:02] — The creator noticed that an abandoned page had activated monetization and turned on all non-streaming ads.
- **Page History** [00:29] — The page was originally used for reaction videos and has over 3,000 followers.
- **Friend's Success** [00:42] — The page became active again for about a week, and a friend who does gameplay videos also got monetized by uploading recycled YouTube Shorts to an abandoned page.

## Transcript

notification a day ago.  One of the many pages I had created and then abandoned activated monetization and turned on all the non-streaming ads.  Here's pretty much everything that's posted on Facebook.  Here it is, look, videos,
reels, stories, even posts, everything is monetized and without any political problems.  I have a theory, I'm going to share it with you.  I reiterate, this is about my experience, so what I am about to say is based solely on
take it as such.  Okay, the first thing that stands out is that this is a page dedicated 100% to my channel.   I previously used this page to upload reaction videos, which is why it has over 3,000 followers.
Now, at most, this page has only been active again for about a week, and friend who also creates content on YouTube, but he does gameplay videos and he Facebook pages weren't monetized.  He told me that he took one of his pages
that he had abandoned and started uploading a lot of clips to it, you know, recycled YouTube Shorts itself.  He started adding clips, random clips, and within a week they activated monetization. Yeah.
