Update: I submitted the CC licence text and my video got rejected for monetization. Maybe I should have set it to CC licence from the start. Or maybe I shouldn't have just copied one video without changing anything. But the niche I chose for that test is overrun, anyways. Next thing I will try...

I did take action... with mixed results. I only have one channel with ~50 videos right now. But since I mass uploaded most of them without description or good tags, most have 0 views. When I switched to only uploading a few videos a day with good tags and descriptions, those videos got a couple...

Just a simple question to make sure I don't make a big mistake: I'm currently looking into uploading Creative Commons content to Youtube (videos will be made by myself) and offering a download link in the description. No scam, no fakes, just high quality content that people will (hopefully)...

Any database of local businesses would work. Yellow Pages, local chamber of commerce...

1) I don't. IMHO it doesn't make sense to divide you traffic (when you are trying to sell something), so it's always one video per product and one prodect per niche for me. 2) I don't. It's ridiculously easy and cheap to make a great video that will get you many clicks and that isn't spam. Yes...

The question mark (?) and exclamaition mark (!) keys on your keyboard seem to be malfunctioning. And regarding your problem: why don't you just go with what they say? Their policy seems pretty clear.

Why woud you ever pay for this? It's nothing but doing a quick Google search and then setting up a Google alert to get notified when anything new comes up. It's a service we sell to local businesses because those people don't know how to use Google. The very fact that you are here means that you...

OK, I see your pont as well. I just think it's very disingenuous to claim to sell 100k real and safe views for 5$, when it's obvious to anyone who knows the first thing about IM that it just isn't possible. It abuses the ignorance of others to make a profit with a product that is known to be...

So you are trying to tell me that people who sold fake views (stemming from an exploit!!) as safe and real views aren't scammers and couldn't have known what would happen inevitably? Please, how stupid do you think they are? They knowingly sold crap that they pretended was just as good as what...

He is now a proven scammer who provided low-quality fake views instead of high-quality like the people here on BHW. Why would you want to order anything from him? He will get your videos banned.

Thanks for all the great answers! And sorry for the formatting, I was pretty agitated. As has been said above, I guess this is a valuable business experience. Because yes, I definitely should have seen it coming. Everything about that company seemed unprofessional right from the start...

Over the last few days I have seen several competitor videos vanish and many others have lost a huge majority of their views. I had actually ordered 5k views from one of the highest reputation providers here on BHW and that video ist still there. It's sitting at 3.3k views, though. No idea...

One local social media management customer I have is getting more and more problematic. It's a local web startup (a website facilitating communication between local businesses and their customers) that I was hired to do social media for and when we signed the contract he added that he wanted a...

Yeah, it's easy to say that anyone could do it. But the trick is knowing what people will be willing to pay for. Those people who pre-order new consoles or collector's editions of big game releases and sell that stuff on eBay for a big profit are doing this as well.

I have a couple of questions: 1) how do you find the right videos? That is, are there certain criteria you use to select videos or do you simply choose a topic and take all the videos you can find? 2) You say AdSense is you big money earner. What about putting an affeliate link, a PPD link or...
