Upload To YouTube And Get A Share Of The Ad Money

If you are a true YouTube head and your always uploading your own films onto their video sharing network, then i have good news for you. YouTube are setting up a system so that people who upload their own films will get a share of the advertising money. It will work by using a number of different advertising techniques including showing a short clip before the actual film. No need to worry though, YouTube say advertising clips wont go on forever and will probably only be about 3 seconds long. To benefit from this great new deal, your film must be copyrighted to you. Fellow video sharing network Revver, already have this system set up. Although Revver aren't as high profile as YouTube, i think this set up has worked wonders for Revver, it is an excellent site where you can get good, tasteful, original content. YouTube say all the features contained in this new system will be released one at a time and they are not going to wait to release it in one big announcement.

"We are still working out the technology and processes involved - both for the rewards system and the video clip advertising system. Various features will be rolled out one by one over the next few months. There won't be one big release."

The full product looks to be finished by the end of March, beginning of April.
