Videos are THE content delivery method on the web today.
Youtube get millions of video views each and every day and people will watch just about anything. They have bandwidth to burn and Youtube is their number one stop to do just that.
Not only do they all have bandwidth to burn, but they also have MONEY to burn. That's right. There are online marketers who are making a KILLING with Youtube.
There are 2 ways in which you can make money with Youtube.
1. Buy a link on a Youtube video description
2. Upload your own videos and link to your offers from the description.
The first method is the fastest method for making money with Youtube.
You simply sign up to a free affiliate program, purchase a domain name at Namecheap.com and then add a mask on the domain name so when somebody clicks on the domain name they will actually be redirected to the affiliate program link. If somebody buys something on the other side, the affiliate program provider will credit you with a commission! The commissions can be pretty high in some cases.
Purchasing the links involves scouting for videos that are very closely related to the product you are going to want to promote. Find a video that is getting a LOT of views. I always aim to find videos that have over 200000 views. Then I contact the owner and propose a 1 month link purchase. I tell him I'll pay him via Paypal and in return he just needs to list my link in his/her signature.
The second method takes a tad bit longer but can potentially make you way more money if your video gets a lot of views, plus it's free. You simply create videos on your chosen topic and provide a link within the video as well as in the video description box.
You can create a video using Windows Movie Maker. Every windows operating system has it installed.
Once the traffic picks up you'll notice some fat commission cheques arriving in your mail box!
