    While browsing some red hot chili pepper videos on youtube I noticed that they had millions of views. Think what the person who uploaded these videos could do if he just added a link to his website. If the site was an interesting site I bet his traffic would increase quite a bit.
    Thats pretty much free advertising. All you need to do is upload a music video thats popular and there you go, free advertising.

    Suggestions?

    Sure, go predict what will be the most popular music video tomorrow and then we can talk about it.

    No, it's not that simple. If a music video is popular, chances are it's already been uploaded and it has over 1 million hits. There's no incentive to watch the same music video you uploaded with 0 hits when people can just watch the "real" music video being featured.

    No, just upload the same video again :D
    Lots of videos have two copies and the second has about a quarter of the views.
    Or just upload random clips of things you find on the web.

    Music Clips are shady, you are obviously breaking laws and TOS at Youtube, sure they are popular and will be watched, but at what cost ? have a look at the most popular music videos nad some of those are by the licensed companies and Youtube is a great launching platform for musicians also.

    Naturally traffic will increase and it is known fact. Make a video, upload and put up site links on video.
