Easy search and use CC-licensed free images for WordPress

Free image search engine is coming to WordPress.org. Now you can integrate CC Search, a CC0 (Creative Commons Zero) with your WordPress.org website to use with over 500 million openly licensed and public domain images discoverable from over 50 sources, audios and videos.

From Matt Mullenweg’s blog,

“I am a long-time supporter of Creative Commons and their influential work on open content licenses, and when we heard they were considering shutting down their CC Search engine we immediately starting exploring ways we could keep it going. I am eager to give a new home to their open search product on WordPress.org in continued commitment to open source freedoms, and providing this community resource for decades to come. This is an important first step to provide a long-term, sustainable challenger to proprietary libraries like Unsplash.

Automattic has hired key members of the CC Search team and will sponsor their contributions as part of our Five for the Future commitment. I look forward to seeing the project grow and welcome them to the WordPress community! Will share in a few weeks when everything is live and running on the site”

YouTube will be deducting up to 24% TAX for all non-US creators

4 years ago Earn, News

YouTube will be deducting up to 24% TAX for all non-US creators, starting as early as June 2021. This will impact a lot of channels moving forward.

From Google : “We’re reaching out because Google will be required to deduct U.S. taxes from payments to creators outside of the U.S. later this year (as early as June 2021). Over the next few weeks, we’ll be asking you to submit your tax info in AdSense to determine the correct amount of taxes to deduct, if any apply. If your tax info isn’t provided by May 31st, 2021, Google may be required to deduct up to 24% of your total earnings worldwide“

This will only apply to revenue generated through U.S. viewers but will still impact thousands of creators.

YouTube is making a change to how payments are conducted for partnered creators outside of the U.S. Google announced today that it will start deducting U.S. taxes from future payments from the platform starting later this year. 

This will only impact earnings generated by viewers within the U.S. and will go into effect as early as June, according to the official YouTube Creators account.

Google will begin deducting taxes from non-U.S. creators on earnings generated by U.S. viewers through ad views, YouTube Premium, Super Chat, Super Stickers, and Channel Memberships. This will apply to all members of the YouTube Partner Program and a prompt to submit updated tax information through Google AdSense will be sent out over the next few weeks. 

YouTube also said that creators could see up to a 24-percent deduction from their total earnings if their tax information is not properly updated by May 31.

On a support page, Google also clearly outlines an example of this impact.Example: A Creator in India earns $1,000 in revenue from YouTube in the last month. Of the $1000 in total revenue, their channel generated $100 from U.S. viewers. Here are some possible withholding scenarios: 

  • Creator doesn’t submit tax info: Final deduction is $240 because the withholding tax rate if you don’t submit a form is up to 24% of total earnings. This means that until we have your completed tax info, we’ll need to deduct up to 24% of your total earnings worldwide – not just your U.S. earnings. 
  • Creator submits tax info and claims a treaty benefit: Final tax deduction is $15. This is because India and the U.S. have a tax treaty relationship that reduces the tax rate to 15% of earnings from viewers in the U.S. 
  • Creator submits tax info, but is not eligible for a tax treaty: Final tax deduction is $30. This is because the tax rate without a tax treaty is 30% of earnings from viewers in the U.S. 

This change won’t affect creators in the United States, but will affect the rest of the world. YouTube needs updated tax info by the end of May, otherwise a default 24% cut will be made, which, obviously, would be detrimental to many who rely on the platform to make a living.
