[Marketing] [Sugar-devel] Smart way to get $$ for posting videos on youtube

[samson goddy]

Yeah, the ads on wiki is a bad idea for sugarlabs. I was only making a suggestions. And no, I newly created a channel on youtube with just 144 views i have over $ 0.44. And yes sugar video have over 24,000 views on youtube. You can type sugarlabs on youtube and you will see different channels posting our videos. We should just stick with the youtube.

Hi Samson,
Last time I checked, Wikipedia was proudly add free (and asking for donations to stay that way).
I don't think we should put ads on our wiki.  I believe that we have the hosting of the wiki funded/donated.  And the adds can look very trashy and unprofessional - no other serious projects have them.
Maybe we can get away with youtube ads, given that people might blame it on youtube.  But is it worth doing it?  Isn't the revenue around $0.40/1000 views?  Do we even have 1000 views?  Is that worth the effect hosting ads has on our image?
Thanks,Sam

Apart from the youtube adsense google also use ads, but just like android is one bad idea. We can embed ads in our texts in our wiki page. Just the same way wikipedia does. There is also text ads. Seems like google give about 0.30 usd per ads.
