This video explains the latest update on Facebook's Content Monetization Tool, clarifying that completing 300,000 views in 28 days does not guarantee access because the program is still invite-only. It outlines the actual eligibility factors like original content, regular posting, no violations, and a recommendable page, and suggests an alternative criteria of 10,000 followers and 1 million qualified views.
