Get an AdSense account for YouTube monetization without needing a website

Yes, there is a way to get an Adsense account so you can monetize your YouTube videos without needing to have a website and without having to go through a long application process. Learn how in this article

If you've been uploading videos to YouTube but haven't been able to monetize them because you don't have an Adsense account, you could be losing out on a lot of money.
I've seen this happen with lots of YouTube videos. Someone will upload a cute video of a puppy, it'll go viral and get millions of views, but because the uploader didn't monetize his YouTube account, he misses out on tens of thousands of dollars in Adsense revenue.
To avoid this, you should always monetize your YouTube videos. But to do that, you must have a Google Adsense account and join it to your YouTube account.
If you already have an Adsense account and have associated with your YouTube channel, you can stop reading now.
If you have an Adsense account and haven't associated with your YouTube channel I show you how in the video at http://www.bmyers.com/members/Monetizing_your_YouTube_account.cfm
But what if you don't have an AdSense account? And what if you don't qualify for Adsense because you don't have a website that fulfills Google's AdSense requirements?
That used to be a big problem. But not anymore.
Now, if you have a gmail account, a YouTube account and have posted at least three videos to your YouTube channel, you can get an Adsense account without needing a website or having to wait weeks to see if you'll get approved.
All you have to do is log into your gmail account, then log into your YouTube channel and follow the steps below (screen captured from YouTube help).

The steps are fairly simple and if followed exactly, you'll usually be approved for an Adsense account within a few hours.
Since the above screen cap from Google leaves out a few clicks, you might want to use these guide.

There is a video showing the above steps, but it was make by someone in Pakistan and doesn't include an audio explanation so its value is somewhat limited. Still, if you follow the above steps you should be able to get Adsense approved for your YouTube channel.
