How Much Can You Potentially Make With Youtube?

We all know Google bought Youtube and now Youtube is worth way more and the guys who bought it are billionaires. Now Google has put in a new partnership program in Youtube. The partnership program allows users to make money off of their videos. TO qualify you need to have a good portfolio of videos with at least 20k views. I myself have a somewhat decent portfolio and am thinking about signing up.

As of now, there is no official webpage that is 100% on what Youtube pays. Some say $10 for 1000 views and others say $250 for 1000 views. Obviosuly $250 for only 1000 views is incorrect. Take 30,000 x 250, you get $7,500,000! Now $10 on the other hand is also a little bit suspicious. If it were that easy to produce an extra income from Youtube alone, I'd be uploading videos like some sort of machine. The truth is that Youtube said on the site, the payment varies from video to video.

These words can mean almost anything. The most heard figure that I've seen on the web is $0.33 per view. Seems valid, doesn't it? If you take 30,000 x 0.33, you still get $9,900! That's valid IF, and if the views are not done in one month, except for music videos and movies with expired copyrights. This just proves you can make a decent buck with Youtube.

To qualify, you must make original videos. By original videos, this excludes movies with active copyrights, music videos seen on TV or any other professionally developed content that has been on or currently is on television. Luckily, Youtube doesn't ban people for uploading illegal content, they jsut remove the videos.

Basically my point is to make use of what knowledge you possess. Do you know how to do something useful that many other people don't? Or do you know of a method that is more efficient than another method? The key is to delive what the people want. Most people don't like learning through reading boring textbooks. (I do!) Visually people are able to learn easier and they can see the final product or outcome of what the video is teaching the user.

Expertvillage pays up to $500 for a instructional video, as long as the person who made the video is a professional. Something like a karate instructional video on how to break wooden boards or something. This also relates back to what kind of text-based content people want to see on websites. The concept is the same everywhere, find what people like and deliver it to them! Give the people what they want! Thanks for reading!
