Choosing the best Rumble license depends on your goals for content distribution and monetization. Rumble offers several licensing options:
1. **Exclusive Video Management:**
- **Description:** Rumble gets exclusive rights to your video and can distribute it across various platforms, including third-party websites and media outlets.
- **Pros:** Higher potential for revenue as Rumble can license your content to multiple partners. Good for videos that have viral potential.
- **Cons:** You lose some control over where your content is published, and you cannot post the video elsewhere yourself.
2. **Non-Exclusive Video Management:**
- **Description:** Rumble can distribute your video, but you retain the rights to also distribute it on other platforms.
- **Pros:** You maintain control and can monetize the video on other platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, and your own website.
- **Cons:** Potentially lower revenue compared to the exclusive option because the exclusivity might command a higher price from licensors.
3. **YouTube Management:**
- **Description:** Rumble manages the video only on YouTube, optimizing it for maximum revenue generation on that platform.
- **Pros:** Focused on YouTube's vast audience, potentially higher earnings from YouTube ads.
- **Cons:** Limits your ability to monetize the video outside of YouTube through Rumble's network.
4. **Personal Use License:**
- **Description:** The video is primarily for personal use and not intended for wide distribution or monetization through Rumble.
- **Pros:** Suitable for those who want to share content with a small audience without monetization concerns.
- **Cons:** Does not offer monetization or wide distribution options.
**Which License is Best?**
- **For Maximum Revenue:** If you want to maximize your revenue and don't mind giving up some control, the **Exclusive Video Management** license is the best option. Rumble can leverage its network to get your video in front of a larger audience, increasing your potential earnings.
- **For Control and Flexibility:** If you prefer to maintain control over your content and distribute it on multiple platforms, the **Non-Exclusive Video Management** license is a better fit. This way, you can monetize on Rumble and other platforms like YouTube, Facebook, etc.
- **For YouTube Focus:** If your primary audience is on YouTube and you want Rumble to help optimize your content for that platform, the **YouTube Management** license is ideal.
- **For Personal Sharing:** If your content is meant for personal sharing with family and friends, the **Personal Use License** is sufficient.
Ultimately, the best license depends on your content strategy, audience, and revenue goals.

00:00Welcome to Rumble University, home of the many answers to all of your questions.
00:05My big question when I tried to upload my first video on Rumble was,
00:09which license do I choose? YouTube doesn't really make you choose,
00:12I mean like there's a little setting you could do, but you don't need to know that much
00:16to upload a video. But on Rumble you feel like you're accidentally gonna sign away
00:20rights to your firstborn child, so let's make sure we don't get ourselves an illegal bind
00:25and figure out which option to choose. Let me tell you what I've learned so far.
00:28Option number one is supposedly where Rumble manages your video, and by manage I mean that
00:35they take the video that you upload to Rumble and they go and put it other places where they
00:40can monetize it, and what they'll do is they'll come back to you and say, guess what, we made
00:45this much because we posted it all these places, and you get 90% and we're gonna keep 10%,
00:52so that sounds pretty interesting. With that license, you're not allowed to post your video
00:57in other places, because for example, if Rumble is gonna take your video and post it on YouTube
01:03on your behalf, but under their name, if you were to go and post it on your own channel,
01:08there would be a conflict because YouTube notices when you upload two of the same video.
01:13I think that's the reason why they don't want you to post it on other platforms under this license.
01:17Now, I don't know if this means that you lose all rights to the video forever,
01:23or if it just means that you are allowing Rumble to be in charge of it for as long as
01:29it's on their platform. For example, if you deleted the video from Rumble, I don't know
01:33whether their management follows you out into your life. Like, are they gonna get mad at you
01:39if you try to submit that video to a film festival, or run it as an ad, or sell it? I don't know.
01:46That's a big question, and if you know anything, please leave a comment. This is a giant experiment
01:51and we're just trying to figure things out. Option two is the same thing where Rumble takes
01:56your video and manages it for you, but it excludes YouTube. So it sounds like that means that they'll
02:02just post it lots of places, but not YouTube. So you can go ahead and do what you're gonna do
02:08in that area. But here's another piece of information that I found. Apparently, if you
02:12upload your video to YouTube first, and then go and upload to Rumble, obviously it already exists
02:18on YouTube, and Rumble can't change that. So apparently Rumble won't get mad at you for doing
02:23that, because it's like they kind of just have to deal with it, but I'm not sure. So for option two,
02:28you keep 60% of what Rumble makes on your behalf, and they will keep 40%. See, a big question I have
02:37here is, where are they making money with your video? Is this going to be the kind of video that
02:42shows up when you're scrolling through a blog or a news website? Rumble, I have a lot of questions.
02:48Hopefully we can figure you out. Option number three is apparently where you can post your video
02:54wherever you want, but on Rumble, you will only make money if advertisers decide to put ads on
03:00your video. It's not a given, like YouTube. They have to choose your video. So that's pretty cool.
03:06I really like that concept. As far as I can tell, Rumble will never put an ad on your video
03:13unless you approve it, which is so awesome. YouTube doesn't do that. They do the opposite. And the
03:20final option, number four, is more of a personal use option where you're not asking advertisers to
03:27place their ads, and you're not trying to make money off it at all. It's just your video that
03:32you're trying to share with the world for whatever reason. Or perhaps it's just supposed to be going
03:36to your family members or whatever. So that's what I've learned so far. I'd really love to hear
03:42what your experiences have been with each of these licensing options. If you want to keep up with what
03:48I'm learning about Rumble, subscribe, because that's how you'll see it. This experiment is going
03:53to run entirely on the questions that we have. So if you need something specific answered, I'll see
04:00if I can do that specifically in a video for you. Well, I think that's all. So, bye!
