I am curious how people are making money from YouTube. I know that some of them are using Ads in the videos to make money but I doubt that the ads will get a lot of clicks. I also heard some people say if your videos get 1 million views within certain period of time, you can get $1 million reward from YouTube. Is that true? Anyone knows how to make money using YouTube?

I agree. It is not easy. I have no video idea to do. That is really tough.

Same here! It's too hard to think what content you gonna do, just to make something unique! But the main problem is...it is really hard to think a concept XD

The easiest way to earn money from YouTube is if you have a business. You post a video related to your business. Also, if you sell services, you can present something about your services in a video post. You can also provide tips that are related to your business or services. For example: - If you provide math tutoring, you can post a video showing people how to solve a common geometry, trigonometry, algebra problems. - If you have a store, you can post a video product of things you sell and describe what it is, its drawbacks, and its advantages, etc - If you provide services, you can present a concept that relates to your services, provide tips, and advice people on different aspects.. Bottom line is: The video has to be your video, not other people's videos or videos that have been posted somewhere. You can post other people's videos as long as it those videos have not been posted anywhere.

I don't believe that youtube offers such thing! The only possible way is by joining programs that offer viewing youtube for pay!

And don't try to exploit youtube, cos they c an see what you're doing behind of them. Example your traffic source must be legit,

what you said is correct but i don't know whether they are giving 1 million dollar or not.I guess they wont because getting 1 million views is not easy.first thing you post some videos which people like to view and make sure in selecting category,Quality etc.. after some day people will start to subscribe to your videos and if you get some certain amount of views,you can adds in it.so that goggle will pays you.
