Get Paid For Videos

Paid for videos is a new concept of making money on the internet. The idea of paying people for their videos was brought about by the multibillion dollar expansion of YouTube and the rising popularity of watching videos online. YouTube is a video sharing network that has been built up by internet users submitting their videos for free. This gave websites the idea to split the revenue from their videos with them to pull them away from YouTube.

Video sharing networks make all their money from the ads you see on the side. Instead of submitting your good videos to YouTube submit them to a network that will share the ad revenue from your videos with you. That is only fair. MetaCafe, a paid video sharing network, will probaly pass YouTube in the upcoming years in terms of popularity.

Best Paid For Videos Platforms

MetaCafe is by far the best paid video program on the internet. MetaCafe has millions of people on their site viewing videos every minute of the day. When you upload a video to MetaCafe your video is likely to be viewed by a lot of people. MetaCafe pays $5 for every 1000 times your video is viewed. When you post a new video it is displayed on the MetaCafe home page. The videos I post usually get more than 700 views within the first 10 minutes of being uploaded. After that views slowdown or speed up depending on how good your video is.

Motion.tv is a good paid for videos website. Users get paid to submit videos by getting a share of the ad revenue their videos generate. They have fair pay. It is hard to get page views because they lack in traffic. You can make that up by submitting your videos to social networking sites. For a complete list of social networking sites go to social poster. The minimum payout is $20.
