Using Adf.ly on YouTube to Make Money

Updated on May 31, 2011

There are many ways to make money on YouTube without being a partner. In this Hub I will show you how to make money on your YouTube videos using adf.ly. This is extremely easy and only requires the following:

an account on YouTube

an adf.ly account

This will work great if you have any external blogs or websites that you link to in your video. Once you've created and uploaded your video take the link you want to post and put it into adf.ly.

click shrink and a new shorter URL will be created. This URL will not only be shorter but it will take the person who clicks on it to a full page ad and after 5 seconds they will be able to go to your site. The is a great way to increase earnings if you have a decent following.

However, people will see the adf.ly link and not click it because it's an ad. For this, you can use another URL shortener to conceal the identity. I chose to use bit.ly. 

Thanks for reading, I hope this helps you with making money. If you become rich off of this, you know who to thank. Click here to join.

If you know anyone who will benefit from this information, share below.

      @Robert I had not seen or heard of this, however, the video I used the links on had been taken down, but I figured it was because I was showing how to get free software. So, it could have been both.
