There's an option to enable ads in your You Tube vids. Have you had success with this and how many views would you have to get for it to mean anything?
From what I hear its about $1,500 per million views but that varies greatly depending on content and # of subscribers.There's an option to enable ads in your You Tube vids. Have you had success with this and how many views would you have to get for it to mean anything?
I also heard that it is in the area of 1$ per 1000 views, but varies greatly.
Anyways, if you have a few thousand views a day, you could end up making some money off of it. If you only have a hundred views per day (like me), the 3 bucks each month in my opinion don't make up for the 5 second ad the viewers have to sit through to get to your content.
I think you really have to balance the money you make from it versus the annoyance of your viewership. I never turned on any ads, since when I send friends a link, I don't want them to watch an ad first. I'd rather have them pay me the 0.1 cents directly.
Just some thoughts...
