Two years ago, I decided I wanted to put ads on some of my youtube videos just to see what kind of revenue they generated. Come to find out, you have to get invited in to the revenue sharing program and before you do that, you have to have a video that people, other than your friends and family, actually watch. No problem, Rachel and I set about making a wildly popular youtube video called "How to make perfect princess Leia hair". Which has a been more like "mildly" popular. THEN fast forward to the present (2 years and 45,000 views later) and I recieve an email with this heading: "Invitation to earn revenue from your YouTube videos". Whaaat?? I am in! We did it! Lets start earning the big bucks!
Rachel and I said back when we posted this that we would take any money it made use it for a noble purpose. But now we can't remember what that was, so any suggestions? So far we've come up with: ice cream.
Here's the video in case you want to watch and up our view count:

ReplyDeleteI think ice cream is a very noble purpose.
ReplyDeleteYou are like a YouTube rock star! Except without the singing. Awesome video. Now that my hair is getting longer I may be able to pull that off. Congrats on the upgrade! Ice cream, chocolate, french fries... those would be top on my list too.
ReplyDelete45,000?! Wildly popular! So are you actually making money yet? What's next? Maybe you should do one on how to hang your child in the window with duck tape?
ReplyDeleteI watched your video. Who put all those annoying ads over it?
