How Do “How To” Videos Make Money?
Recently there has been alot of talk about youtube adding a shared-revenue method for people that upload original content. No Im talking about downloading music videos and watermarking to affiliate links like I do. Im talking about real original videos that you either star in yourself or you videotape your friends doing things they’re not supposed to when they think no one is watching.
Before youtube started this revenue sharing model, there were oodles and oodles of sites that would pay you money based on the amount of views that a video you uploaded would generate.
One such person has made over $102,000 just uploading video on “how-to” do various things.
We are living in a world where people have started to believe what Al Gore says. So the youtube generation automatically goes to youtube looking for videos on “how to save the environment” or “how do I properly install a brick in my toilet to save water so that global warming will not be curse on my children” okay so maybe the search terms will not be that long term.
But we are living in a world where even rich people are willing to role their sleeves up and learn “how to cut the grass” there are even video on how to fold towels!
is there anything that you can do to make money out of this? I am sure that you can think of something.

The Winner of The Free Blog
It was originally supposed to be Iulian, but unfortunetly he did not have the time to make a tierra.net domain account.
The next winner person eligible for the prize was greg, I know everyone thought that Richy was supposed to win because his was the first comment that actually appeared on the blog, but the other 2 people did actually post their comments first but the comments were awaiting moderation.
This contest kind of left a bad taste in my mouth because I did kind of screw the pooch on this one in a couple of ways:
- In the title I said first person to comment wins, but in the body I said everyone that comments has a equal chance.
- I forgot to consider the fact that some comments would be moderated.
I will make sure that from now on contest are carried out a bit more carefully.
Congratulations to Greg on winning. He has taken the domain name and moved the files so lets hope he can start earning some money from that bad boy.
Wordpress 2.5
Have you upgraded? Doesn’t matter. Not that big of a deal and definitly not something worth blogging about.
The MMO niche needs to stop being about what your thoughts on politics are, or what you think about climate change. But they need to be about making money online.
You want to read a blog about making money and laughing your ass off at the same time?
Check out nickycake, the guy has been more helpful to me than any other so-called guru. If you ask him reasonably intelligent questions I am sure he will not get pissed off either.
Free Blog For the First Person that leaves a comment on the Blog
I am feeling generous today.
I had a 4 hour power nap last night, and slept till 11:00 this morning so i thought I would give away something to my loyal readers, all that you have to do to be eligable to win this competition is leave a comment in the blog. After that each comment number will be fed into a randomiser and the winning comment gets this blog.
So all you people have to do is leave a simple comment on this post. This contest will be over in exactly 24 hours.
It’s not that big of a deal, and I thought I would start doing more and more of these for my readers.
The blog has made about $3.74 since it’s inception:
