Revver Video-What is it?

In light of all the attention Youtube is getting, other high caliber video sharing websites are being left in the dark. Revver is a perfect example of this. Revver is a great video sharing site that has been "out shouted" by Youtube in the past.

It is my hope that after reading this hub you will realize the value revver has to offer and the importance of taking revver seriously. So instead of automatically posting your video to youtube, give revver a try. It's easy to upload and share videos, and earn money!

So what is revver.com?

According to their website, they are the first viral video network that pays it's users. They actually do all the hard work of gathering video creators/sharers and advertisers, merge them together, and offer a beneficial solution to both. The video creators/sharers earn money and the advertisers get to advertise to their targeted audiences.

Revver has becoming very popular because it pays users for videos. More specifically, you get paid based on how many ads are clicked on before, during and after your videos play! This revenue is split 50/50 with revver.

Revver also allows some modification of when and if advertisements are shown during your video, so if you want to limit the number of ads shown during your video you can.

Once you make $20 on revver.com they pay you via paypal. Getting an account through paypal is free, so don't let this stop you from getting your hard-earned money from revver!

A fair look at Revver video has to include the recent payment problems Revver seems to be having. Apparently Revver has not been faithfully paying their users. In fact, according to this article, Revver simply stopped talking about payments since December of 2008.

Unfortunately, if this is true I cannot recommend Revver and will instead recommend Blip.tv as a viable alternative. If revver really isn't paying their customers, shame on them.

I wonder how long it will be before they have a lawsuit brought against them.
