Make Money With Video Blogs

[Matthew Sherborne]

Making money from your own video blogs just got a whole lot easier. Now there's a brand new way to make money
from any videos you put on your blog. Nope it's not from Google Adsense videos. How? It's through a website called
BlinkX AdHoc.

With AdHoc you can use videos from the most popular video websites to make money with videos that you publish.
Taking videos from the most popular video sharing sites like Myspace Video, YouTube, Google Video, Revver, College
Humor, and other popular video sites and making money from them is now possible.



It works like this... You sign up for the AdHoc service. Enter your Paypal address when you sign up. It only takes a minute.
Then you look for videos from your favorite site or choose from the selection of videos already on the BlinkX website.

Once you’ve got a video, grab the embed code and go to the AdHoc website. Once there paste the video embed code into
the site to generate a new video code to add to your website or blog.




You will have the option to add advertisements to the inside of the video or have them show up on top. Remember
that ads inside the video may obscure 20% of the video as it plays. The final step is to cut the generated code from
the AdHoc site and add it to your blog or website to start making cash from your videos.

Anytime a person clicks on one of your ads, the advertiser pays blinkx. You will then receive 50% of the click-through
revenue. The money is paid via Paypal from Blinkx in $20 increments at the end of the month.

I will take a serious look at this when I get my act together. This is good to know. Thanks Matt

This does look quite interesting. I like the idea of making money from Youtube and all the millions of videos that other people have made.

It looks like the cheapest ad from the site pays .05 cents a click. That owuld mean an earing per video ad click of only 2.5 cents. Not so great, but they did say that was the minumum. The good thing is the video ads are targeted to the video content, very nice feature.

Can you add this video widget to your Myspace to make money? That would be definitely be cool.

BlinkX looks like they have a great service for making money from video. NoTrouble, you're right about the minimum cost to advertise on the site is .05. Traditionally it has been very hard to monetize video visitors because they have a notoriously short attention span. As well as a hatred of advertising.

I put the video widget on my Myspace page yesterday to test it out and it appeared to be working. It correctly displayed the advertising targeted to the videos content which was a big plus. The only problem I saw was the video started automatically which may pose a problem for some.

Videos starting automatically definitely get your attention, and will help you make money from the videos. However, it may be an annoyance if all videos start this way. I'll continue to keep you updated as more information comes in, and of course post it here.
