It has been announced that Youtube Users in the UK will soon be able to make money from their creations uploaded to the site. The project is already running in the US, and reports suggest that some users are already earning $1000’s per month. That’s the good news, the bad news, to generate that sort of income you have to have 100’s of thousands of views. Not impossible but highly improbable. It does indicate the possibilties emerging to monetise video on the web. Whether this Youtube style cash for views policy will convert to the world of corporate video and commercials remains to be seen, but it’s certainly an indication that it’s time marketeers consider more seriously adding video to their sites. |
