How profitable is YouTube? Is there a market for selling YouTube video views on a large scale? Or should I focus on something else?

    Of course there is a market for this.

    It wasn't to long ago that YouTube removed tons of views from "Famous" youtube channels from Universal Music Group and Sony.

    We are talking millions of views. I believe some of the artists were Rhianna and Beyonce.

    I can try and dig up the source if you don't believe me.

    I believe you. I vaguely recall something about this.

    What kind of views do your videos need to make real money? Are there any averages or estimations posted anywhere? I'm new to the Ad revenue game.

      I may be. I want to explore the idea some. I've quietly built a large network that could get a person 5,000 + REAL views in one day. I need to do more research, such as view limits, restrictions, risks, frequency of use and so on.

      All feedback is appreciated.

        Well if you can get real genuine view then you could charge a hell of a lot more than someone who is offering a fake view service. If you could target the view by location, age, gender, or anything else then you could up your price even higher!

    The views are usually used to help with your ranking through YouTube.

    The amount of views depends on your niche and competing videos.

    Of course views are not the only factor in ranking. You need to have a good SEO optimized descriptions, likes, subs, etc...

    Now if your talking about using views to gain partnership this is different has it may depend on the quality of your videos, network, and consistency of views.

    What if there was a system that cost maybe $49, one time. And in return you can get virtually unlimited REAL YouTube views. Or should I charge by the bulk?

    5,000 is not that many views actually.

    Right now I know I can buy 40,000 views for $45. We are talking high retention views at that. As well as country targeted and with a legit referrer(facebook or twitter).

    Normal views, which are worldwide run about $40 for 50,000 views.

    None of these methods include mobile views either.

    Thanks for the input. With my network and method I can generate virtually unlimited views. I was just curious on how to sell them. In bulk or by time period.

    There are a lot of people selling real high retention views on Fiverr and other online marketplaces. You can check out how much people are charging for the service so you can charge competitively. What I would say is that you should make sure to offer more than 5K views if you can. Some people sell hundreds of thousands of views over a few days.

    Selling views is a bad idea to my opinion. If you're getting real human views you'd better promote CPA offers or affiliate products, why leaving lots of money on the table?

    I don`t think he`s talkin about real human visits, or else he`d try to profit himself.

    YouTube is the third rated website worldwide with countless numbers and an incredible number of customers. When the video goes popular, YouTube is generally a driving force and the place where you can make most of your earnings. I have searched and got GollyGoose where you can buy or sell your videos. This platform is to sell your any media creation. Just have to sign up and get started. I don’t know much about the site. Try this out if you want to sell you videos.
