So, what is this idea of viral videos all about? Well here over the last year, websites promoting free videos have exploded in popularity. Places like YouTube and Google Video are the ones that most people may recognize. Well, what The Video Sense (herein simply TVS) does is provide a way for you, as an Adsense publisher, to make money from these videos that people are drawn to.
The Video Sense displays videos and around those videos they also display those Adsense ads. Now how this works, is that you submit videos to TVS. Then, when your video is displayed, your Adsense id is used, for the ads that are displayed. Keep in mind that for videos that you submit, your id is only used 50% of the time. The other 50% is the owner’s id. Now don’t worry, you don’t have to be an expert at making videos, or even have your own videos to make money this way. Later on we’ll cover finding videos online that you can use, and simple ways to make your own.
The Video Sense also provides one other way to help you to earn money through Adsense.
