Monetize Youtube vids?

I just received a mail from Youtube that I can monetize my videos on Youtube. Payments are done via an adsense account. As I am not really familiar with this, I wondered if anyone else is doing this? :?

And this kind of made me think that we could create a sort of Z4-forum profile on Youtube where the ops can store vids from our meets. Generating some money on these vids would be a great form of income/donations for this forum without having too much ads on the forum itself...
 
I thought you needed about about 100,000 views to make £1 (depending on type, adverts, source of clicks, country, etc.) - doesn't seem worth the bother.
 
Not heard of it this way around... all too familiar with the google style, pay to get your youtube ranking improved... that takes money from you though, not gives it to you...
 
I have monetised videos and yes you need tens of thousands of hits to make a small amount :cry:
 
I have a number of Youtube vids, although the payments are more than suggested above I deleted monetisation for two reasons, firstly very few people click the adverts (do you?) and secondly the analytics on viewing numbers and times etc demonstrated that a lot of people move away from the vids when adverts run at the start and when ads pop-up. They are a turn-off, quite literally :thumbsdown:
 
The revenue from ads is marginal, unless you upload lots of popular videos on a regular basis.

Over this year, my somewhat crappy youtube channel has earned me a mere 35 euros.
