    Hey Dp'ers,
    What would be the best way to monetize a soccer related video site.
    I know adsense is a no-go. :rolleyes:

    The site is new and no traffic yet .

    What are the other options ?

    Tx for sharing.

    you can monitize a site either with traffic or PR
    since you don't have both, try getting them both first :)

    Google TOS says you are not allowed to put adsense on video sites. Or am i wrong here ?

    adbrite started doing in-video ads. I did not look into it but i think u just enter your direct video url and you end up with flash embed video code that will show a bunch of ads every time your video is viewed. No idea what money you can expect to get.

    If the poster who wrote that adsense on video sites is no-go has a link where it says that I'd like to see it as I plan on making a video site with Adsense.

    I think you might want to find a way to write a little summary about each video...just 2 or 3 sentences (maybe with an h1 tag) might help the adsense bot serve better ads?

    I am only theorizing though...
