Holy hell!!! Checked this video after a YEAR

[Chronic Future]

10 months ago I tried 2 or 3 videos with the hotnewhiphop/youtube method but gave up because I realized that too many other people were doing it. I remember checking it a month after I uploaded it and it had a mere ~200 views and was on the 2nd or 3rd page for its search terms.

I just checked it randomly because I found an old link on my PC and it has a bit over 50k views and is 2nd on the search page!

Just sharing - never give up hope on your videos and remember to check them! -CF

Have you even read something in this forum?

Anyways, check Harro's post in the youtube section. A great method and with some tweaking, it'll work for your vid.

so the moral of the story is, just upload videos and let them 'win' on their own?

 

[EmpireQuality]

i hope you had a cpa link in the video and in the description

did you?

 

[Chronic Future]

I did but unfortunately I wasn't active on my cpa account (maxbounty) and I guess it was deleted. Sucks! But I can still edit it and it's still getting 500-1k views a week so it could be profitable!

And about the 'moral of the story', never forget about your videos because results may come randomly MONTHS later!

now you can rent description space

I use Vagex way to much... My brain is instinctively figuring out what 50k view is in Vagex time :')

 

[Big_0n3]

if you have worked a little after you have posted it now the video could have over 500k views

I just checked some videos I uploaded 1 year ago. No such luck it seems, they have only 1k. Still pretty decent if you ask me...

I can't really get much more on it, it's a popular song but most of the views came within a couple months of each other back in late 2011, when the song was on the radio. Seems like it's died down a bit but oh well.

And how would I 'rent description space'? People buy that?

Has happened with me a few times too. I like to randomly upload 5-10 videos and just let them be and move onto another account. Have had many go to 30k-50k , and several to 300k-500k. Didn't get a ton of traffic from them though, I am terrible at making money from things like that.

Like from youtube? Its pretty hard to turn a profit out of youtube if you don't have a partner channel.
As far as getting traffic from youtube videos, well, I never had success.
