Do you vlog? Then Ditch The YouTube!
TheSpotter on August 28th, 2007
Tweet ThisYoutube is popular and fun and if you vlog - can be a great source of traffic assuming you are creating your own videos. But using it exclusively you are actually doing yourself a great disservice!
Ditch that dump and use something better on your vlog! And no, I don’t mean not to use it at all but simply using it in combination with a more superior service, which creates a lot higher quality videos and Pays You!
I don’t do too many videos and most of what I present of instructional quality which is obviously not the most popular thing on social sites like youtube that is overrun by teenagers and where some stupid kid imitating Star Wars becomes the main attraction …
For me quality of video is just as important as quality of presentation and so far [tag-tec]Youtube[/tag-tec] and [tag-tec]Google video[/tag-tec] failed to deliver it. What is even worth sometimes placing a video from youtube before “more” tag drags my page load into “dial up era”. But thanks to David Ledoux post, whose blog I read on regular bases I joined a new service [tag-tec]Revver[/tag-tec].
Producing a far superior quality of videos and human controlled approval process ensures that only original works makes it there and by adding a simple small ad at the end of your video – they provide me with profit sharing.
I was quite surprised that when I published my first video “Free Link Building Video Tutorial” and checked stats couple days later – I had a $1.12 coming my way … rather nice way to get paid for providing something I would anyway.
So if you vlog and create original videos – it is time you start earning from your work. Join the Revver and get paid for the views of unobtrusive ads tacked to your video. Continue to add your videos to other services like youtube and Google but use the Revver videos on your vlog. Show people that you respect your own work by providing higher quality.

This sounds like an interesting service. I will have to check them out. Do you know of any other Video Ad services with affiliate programs?

No, sorry …
At this point I haven’t looked into this option far enough (wish I had 48 hours in a day) …
Revver serves great for me

I agree totally with this. I have hesitated for a long time to put video on youtube. I use the service a lot to view others video but not for my own. I also found Revver a week ago and am in the process of creating 5 video’s to test there. From what I have read on the site, the video’s I have viewed and the forum, this may well be what I have been looking for.

Yep,
I have a couple videos I have put and so far very impressed by quality. Their conversion is far superior to other big players and because its reviewed by human editors - they ensure uniqueness.
Great service that also pays you

Great article…its so cool to see my ramblings leading to cash money in someone’s pocket!
The “how-to” market is hot…stay creative, think outside the box and be consistent on your video creation. You’ll do well!
Nice job!
