RE: Teaser: Soon, you will be able to publish videos on Steem

I make $12 per month on YouTube. The only people who really make bank are less than .00001% of YouTube creators. The rest of us make peanuts.

Sort:  

Yes, exactly. And they make the majority of the money b/c they get the majority of the views on their content. My point is not to discourage this b/c I feel it's THE right move/answer.

I'm simply stating that the majority of YouTube's premiere content and viewership isn't likely to jump ship quick. It takes more people like you, making $12 over time, where some become very popular before it takes hold.

But, I think it's inevitable and needs to be done.

Exactly my sentiment. We don't really need big time famous people using Steemit to propel ourselves. They will likely see this weird website as just another income stream with no regards to the community or the culture.

Why not reward those who have been here since day 1 and has been making content day and night? Those that believes in Steemit before it was mainstream, before it "makes big money".

What I mean is that, IF, they do come, let them come. But we ourselves have already all the talents we need to make steemit a legit place. Afterall, steemit is about everyone. Everyone can make money, not just big time famous stars.

You are spot on my man. For those of us here we knew this was going to be a future platform with value that will be an opportunity to get in on the ground level and become those guys and gals bringing in a livable income or a nice little bonus. Support early adopters whenever possible because we made this platform and it shall be to our benefit.

Lets support each other and build up ourselves!

Great posts and blog you have by the way, followed and cant wait for your future posts!

Right on following both you guys !!!!

Lets hope they ALL JUMP SHIP!

Lets kill this dinosaur media and bring on the alternative media. I listen to all alternative media on youtube. USA Watchdog, SGT Report, Lisa Haven etc. and lean so much more from these folks. Thanks for all of those who chose to provide us with alternative media. Thumbs UP!!

never gotten a view above 10 on You lessTube!!!

I make way more on affiliate commissions from YouTube than I do from the Adsense. Adsense is a minimal income stream for me on there but I feel it is important.

of course -- I always knew this is so, and therefore am still laughing at attempts to "calculate" the income of some Casey Neistat merely be figuring out the value of their AdSense clicks. In light of those being in the $100,000s just imagine what these people really are making (from those little Amazon or GoPro or Manfrotto affiliate links they also use)...

Not that this is all tht important, maybe rather off-topic here.

Just saying though...

Youtube is going to miss you @stellabelle Bleep_visual_censor.gif
and many other steemers. Youtube is history.
