Anyone making money with Youtube & Adsense?

13 replies
I have a couple hundred videos I want to put on Youtube to see if I can make a little money with them. Is it worthwhile? I only ask because I've never clicked a Youtube ad in my entire web-life and I can't imagine that too many other people do either. It will take maybe a solid week of uploading to get my videos online and I'd rather not waste that week if people are only making pennies a day.

    You can make money for CPM ad already I am making nearly $2 per month from 10 videos that aren't much popular. I will be adding some great videos in this month to make more $$$.
    Youtube is best method to make money by doing nothing.

    Pay is really low if you're a new advertiser. Like $1/1000 views? If you have plans to get a million plus views on your videos, then it might be worth it.

    If not, consider it a passive side project.

      I had no idea it was that low. Bummer. Hardly seems worth it but I have hundreds of videos just taking up space on my computer and I want to put them to work.

    Instead of Adsense, I'd recommend looking at using coa offers with YouTube traffic

    What are your videos about? Are they interesting? If they're interesting, you might be able to generate a nice income, if you manage to drive enough traffic to your channel of course. So, just go ahead and try it out, you have nothing to lose.

    It is totally worthwhile. The thing that you don't click doesn't mean other people do the same. Otherwise all the display networks would be dead by now. Besides that there is pre-roll advertising on YouTube when user watches an ad before watching your video.

    The more views you get, the more money you make.

    Good luck with all your efforts!

    I'd suggest using your videos as a lead source. Drive your viewers to a website/blog or offer that will pay you real money. There's plenty of CPA networks out there with niches and verticals that may be suitable for your audience.

    Adsense is not worth it. I believe the pay for new publishers is now even lower than $1 per 1k views. Google/Youtube is who's getting reach and keeping all the money. So it's definitely not the most effective way for YOU to make money.

    I'd definitely do what I suggested above. Use your videos to drive traffic to your own site/blog or to an affiliate site that may be suitable for your audience. You will earn a lot more money than Adsense will ever pay you. Also will be wise to capture all your leads you gain, and build an email list.

    Make money online from Adsense or youtube is not very easy, but it's not hard. You do not need to be creative. You do not need to be smart either... You just need to DO IT in the right direction.

    You can use Youtube to promote your affiliate products because its easy to rank videos on Google if I compare to your money website. And if you want to earn money from Adsense you have to focus on SEO.

    I would probably suggest you go with CPA offers on Youtube, Adsense is good but you need massive traffic from tier 1/tier 2 countries to make decent money.

    One way to see how your videos will perform is to look at videos of the same topics and see how many views they get.
