YouTube yesterday announced it will soon allow advertisers to reserve YouTube Shorts ads in the YouTube Select lineup using Display & Video 360 Instant Reserve.

YouTube Shorts is a format on YouTube that allows users to create and watch short-form videos up to 60 seconds long.

This year, Google start paying creators for YouTube Shorts video views.
