Monetizing an online videos site
The site is similar to NetFlix, in that each video is around 30 minutes in length and they are delivered with a custom flash player.
A competitor site is Putlocker - Watch Movies Online Free (please note however that all videos on my site are legal).
I have looked at various popup/popunder programs but these just seem so annoying and cliche'd to the user. Plus whenever I see these ads I close them immediately (almost out of habit). I can't imagine they get a very good CPM for these.
Given some (but not all) of the content is adult I am open to adult programs if they pay more (do they pay more????).
One idea I have considered is integrating a program into the custom flash player, such that a user has to watch a video ad before they can watch more (similar to the Youtube "Skip Ad"). I'd imagine I could get better CPM for this than simply popups (???)
As you can tell I'm a bit lost really on how to make money from this. My strength is in the technical area not the marketing. I guess that's why I'm here
