After your earnings from advertisements reach a certain threshold, you can withdraw the earning to your bank account. The earning is good if your video gets good viewership. The more impressions the advertisements receive (ie. The number of times the advertisements are shown on your video), the more is your earning. You can also create your own YouTube channel as a business, in a planned manner and upload several videos of a similar theme, to get subscribers (regular viewers) who love your channel and increase its viewership.
