Its brilliant – i started this as a supplement to my online business (see the about me page) and now my business is a supplement to the money I make here! As promised i’ll fully explain how you can make money on youtube too now.

How to gain your brand more exposure through Youtube

So, can you make money on youtube or not? If we look at the success of famous superstars such as Justin Bieber, and even Rebecca Black, it is clear to see that YouTube has become more than just a place to share videos. As a website it has the power to transform lives and make people some serious money. But its marketing potential isn’t just limited to being a talent spotter. Thousands of businesses have also found commercial success through the websites vast audience share, as they utilise its social aspects to target millions of prospective consumers.

However there is a specific formula that leads to this kind of success. You can’t just simply upload a video and expect it to become YouTube’s next big thing, no for you to find out how can you make money on youtube, you need something a little extra. This is the crucial mistake that most marketers make when they consider using the website for advertising. They lack a clear understanding of how YouTube really works.

The secret to using YouTube as an advertising tool

Youtube ranks videos according to popularity. They incorporate every factor they can into considering whether a video is worthy of a searchers time. This includes everything from its viewer count, ratings and even the amount of comments that it boasts. It is very much a ‘rich get richer’ system in which those that already have thousands of views have the chance to often attain millions. The problem is how do you get those initial views and comments so that you can make money on youtube. With 24 hours of video uploaded every minute it seems rather unlikely that your uploads are going to be able to attract much attention on their own. That’s where UTube Plays comes in.

They offer our people like you and me (the ones wondering “can you make money on youtube”) the foundation of views, comments and ratings needed to make a video go viral. Real human visitors are used to implement these changes and to give Youtube no choice but to push your video up the results pages.

The benefits of using utubeplays.com to kick-start a marketing campaign on Youtube

Incredibly good value for money: Once your videos have been given a ‘boost’ they will offer your brand incredible exposure for free. Youtube enjoys over two billions views every day making its television rivals pale in comparison. By offering you channel views and subscriptions on top of views and comments; they offer you the chance to find success with every video you upload and not just your first. And remember, uploading is absolutely free!

The chance to target specific consumers: Unlike adverts on TV your videos will appear only to searchers who actually want to learn more about your product. The keywords related to your video can be carefully chosen to ensure maximum conversions. You can even post your videos on social networking sites, allowing your videos to go viral within the communities that make up your industry.

An opportunity to create a loyal following: Much like Twitter, through an accumulation of subscribers YouTube can offer you a loyal following that will help to increase the exposure of every video you upload. You’ll have the chance not just to interact with these consumers on a textual basis through comments, but also visually through the creation of video responses.

Now, don’t get me wrong – you have to pay for this privelage. But TRUST ME! It is more than worth it with the money that you will make back from an affiliate scheme or just by selling your own products, or even by promoting your blog and earning money from adverts!

Traffic To Videos Is The Key

SUCCESS!!! Well, sort of. Let me explain..

Hi Everyone (well, i should say hi the the 2 people that actually read this! Lol). I have got this affiliate thing (see my last post) all figured out – its actually really easy. So i’ve got my products that i want to sell and I’ve got the videos made to sell them. I’ve even made a sale off the back of one of my videos (hense the success part..). Which means that so far its taken 2 months to make about £10 (about $15 for any american reader that stumbles upon this) which, isn’t really “Quit the day job” type earnings if i’m honest, i mean – i think my kids might be a bit hungry!!

 Note: To make my videos i used one true media they have a free version where i made this video to test it out (don’t laugh at it i was just testing!!). Since then i ugraded to the full account – although i’m not going to show you my proper product video’s in case you steal my ideas!  ;-)

The only problem that i’m finding is getting people to start watching the videos – i know that once a certain amount have seen it, then it will be recommended to more viewers and then it will get more views and so forth. Its just trying to get that initial load of traffic to my videos that is the problem.

I think if i can find a way to do this then i could be onto something here, maybe not millionaire type money, but enough to make life comfortable i reckon. I’ve just got to find the last piece of the puzzle…

Affiliate Marketing? On YouTube?!

OK, So, here’s where i’m at – i’ve been at it a few days now and i think i’ve got my head around this ‘affiliate marketing’ thing (- this is what my first idea on how to make money on the videos was, by the way). Its actually a really decent thing that i will be employing for my business after the whole making money on youtube project has finished.

The basic concept is that you basically advertise in a load of different ways for a specific business or product and then when that is sold you will get a small amount of the profit from the sale. Its an interesting concept to me as i have my own online store and I am defiantely going to be using this in the future for that, but it is equally as good for the other side of it – as an affiliate you get paid for selling a product, its like having all the benefits of being able to sell something, without any of the hassle of holding any stock!

Amazon and eBay Affiliate Scheme

Amazon and eBay offer Affiliate Schemes

There are a load of different affiliate companies out there - clickbank and clixgalore are two of the biggest from what i can tell. But pretty much every company has some form of affiliate program (I think i must have missed a trick here with my buisness!). Amazon, eBay, loads of them! Its just a simple case of advertising them in some way. Generally people are using adverts on their websites and blogs as well as emailing people to promote these affiliate links.

Now i’m thinking what if this is how i can make money on youtube? What if i make videos for all of these affiliate products that are around? That will surely work right? I mean with the number of people that watch videos on youtube there must be a way that i can monetise this thing right?

Well that is what i will find out next. Come back again to see how i’m getting on with my pet project folks!

Can You Make Money On Youtube or not??

If you’ve ever sat at home constantly wondering can you make money on youtube, then you are not alone! I do too so there are at least two of us in the world! As you can see from my bio i do have a small internet business, but i have always wondered if there is real money in videos on the tube, i mean without all of the hassle of running a business and the costs (and stress!) that comes with it. Surely, with all the videos (theres approx 30,000 uploads per DAY!) that are on there surely there must be some way to capitalise on it and make profit, right?

Making Money From Youtube Videos

The famous YouTube Logo

Well, first things first – i definately think that i will need something to sell, but with the internet nowadays there is no need to actually OWN a product i could simply advertise somebody else’s! You’ve probably all heard of various affiliate schemes like google sniper and super affiliates comission and to be honest they do work (not to the obviously exagerated profits they say but enough to make real money). But i’m thinking there must be another way to use the techniques that are in these packages. So this is it  – day one of finding out how can you money on youtube.

The Plan

I’m going to be posting videos on to the the tube and including an affiliate link somehow (haven’t quite decided yet). Then i will try and see if the affiliate link will earn me money from people just watching my videos.

I’ve got alot to decide on at the minute:

  • What type of video am i going to make?
  • Where will i put the affiliate link?
  • What product i am going to promote?
  • Who i be promoting it to?
  • How can i get people to watch it?
