Make money with YouTube videos is possible!

The YouTube Partnership Program was the way that YouTube found to share its advertising revenue with all bloggers, artists and the curious who daily produce video content to YouTube.

This Partnership Program works in two ways (quite interesting): either you allow to be shown Adsense ads in your videos, or you place the available locations to be rented for network advertisers (such as Google AdNetwork).

The only catch to join the partnership program is that you must already have some uploaded videos and some subscribers signing your content, which means you must have a target audience already defined, with their eyes fixed on you and your videos.

When you have fulfilled these requirements, you may subscribe to the partnership program in http://www.youtube.com/partners

If you enter this site and you are sent to the homepage of YouTube, that means one of two things: either you are still not sufficiently prepared to join the program, or the program is still not available in your country.

YouTube: Partnerships


Rising stars on YouTube there are many and every day there are new. Videos that become a phenomenon of popularity without realizing it or why. Less common is to make money from it. But there are people who have had real profits with their videos.


Examples of stars born in YouTube are easy to find. But the same cannot be said with examples of those who have managed to turn the online success into cash in real life.

Time magazine looked at the phenomenon and concluded that the difficulty arises from the short life of a successful video (becomes viral very quickly but also quickly fails to earn the attention of users).

Indeed, there are people who can make money with their (few) seconds of online fame.


Charlie Schmidt's Keyboard Cat

Charlie Schmidt earned more than $ 20,000 with a video that shows Fatso, his cat playing keyboard.


Graphic designer, the owner of Fatso picked up on VHS tapes that he had at home with the cat and turned them into one minute video with the cat "playing" keyboard.

But how did Charlie Schmidt make ​​money with Fatso, who died in 1991? Through mobile apps, T-shirts and selling licenses, but mainly through an advertising deal with YouTube. The revenues will go in part to the author.


David After Dentist

Another of the most popular videos which earned enough money to the author is this, a kid of seven years old, "drunk" by the effect of the anesthesia that had been submitted by the dentist.

The video was posted on YouTube by his father, and shows David, seven years old, still on the effects of anesthesia that had taken at the dentist.

Since then, the video, viewed millions of times, has earned more than $ 40,000, through advertisements.


The Dancing Cockatoo

Snowball's choreography is a success and the owner earns almost all of money required to maintain a shelter for birds.

The owner, Irena Schulz, who runs a nonprofit shelter for birds at risk, does not guarantee that the video earned her a restful life, but the donations finance 95% of the work.


Baby Dancing to Beyonce

Who has not seen this video of a baby dancing excitedly to the sound of Beyonce's Single Ladies? For his parents, this provides the peace of knowing that they will have money for the education of this little star.

The family did not hesitate and when they noticed the success of the video in which his child does not take his eyes off the television and dance to Single Ladies registered the domain singlebabies.com and found a sponsor for electronic cards.
