Hi
3 years ago I posted what I thought was a pretty mundane video clip on YouTube. A month later I noticed it had been viewed more than a 1000 times, which was nice a surprise.
Half a year later one of my friends contacted me to say that the video had something like 15,000 hits and that I should monetise it. I never considered monetising a video before, but thought what the heck so I did.
Anyway, the video has now had 70'000 views, and according to analytics I have earned the grand total of nothing. Perhaps when it reaches 1000000 views ill earn a penny
I'm sure glad I don't rely on YouTube for income, but im certainly curious to know just how many views it takes to earn something.
