I've noticed several top YouTube vlogers have started implementing short little ads at the begining or end of their videos... they dont make much from these from what I've heard.. but atleast its something. I have a better idea... 1.) Contact several leading-name YouTubers with you're marketable site.. now this would have to be something family friendly and highly useful.. 2.) Persuade these "tube stars" to make a short video clip in which they simply say a few words.... for a donation to the charity of their choice. 3.) Edit everything using Avid (for Mac) or Movie Maker (Win XP) The final result would turn out like this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=6zucu3tZAuQ
As part of the deal, each participating YouTube'r would upload the final product to their vlog... reaching a mass market of people.
Its a decent Idea but they will delete you if you advertise too much on your videos, I once had a youtube network with around 4 million hits and I was just banned one day with no email or nothing from youtube. I am in the process of re-uploading some of my content but.
"youtube network" means like 120 videos and the total of all this was 4 million hits together and going up massive each day...then boom "this account has been banned"...
