Facebook adds Stories to monetization program for creators

Facebook has added Stories to its monetization program, allowing creators to earn money from this feature alongside regular content. This change expands options for creators to generate income on the platform. The monetization model for Stories is now performance-based, focusing on views and interactions rather than ad presence. This differs from the previous revenue-share model, which relied on ad load and CPM. Creators already in the monetization program can start earning from Stories immediately. Those not enrolled can register to join. Additionally, Facebook Live videos will now be deleted after 30 days, streamlining video storage.
