I Can’t Stop Watching Jorg

ByNalts

jorg.jpgThe true sign of a viral video star is when viewers simply can’t wait for the next episode. I’ve been watching Jorg’s two clips (the original, the E Holywood Story, and the dance contest) over and over and over. I want more. Jorg’s creator is BrettNovak.com.

His first video got more than 300K views on YouTube. Had that happened on Metacafe he’d have $1,500.00 and he has no idea. Then again, he’s a thumb. His expenses are probably pretty low.

It really bums me out to discover great talent on YouTube making videos as volunteers as the founders make a mint. Yes- YouTube helped them get famous. But YouTube road their backs. Sure a few have moved to Revver. But the rest have never made a dime, and they don’t know they can!

Here’s the video, titled “Poor Man’s GPS.” It’s currently the third highest rated Comedy video of the day on YouTube, which is the highest rating I’ve yet received for a sponsored video….

Where Are the YouTube Ads? (Insert Cricket Sound)

ByNalts

The biggest mystery of YouTube partners (those who share in advertising revenue generated by their videos) is yet unsolved. My post about Sxephil’s reaction generated a lot of discussion, but there’s still a big unanswered question…. Are the YouTube ads missing because advertisers aren’t buying? Or is there a technical glitch prohibiting them? Either option…

You Won’t Get Discovered on YouTube

ByNalts

I’d like to take a moment to dispel the biggest myth of online video. Since a few “cross over” stars have been discovered on YouTube, people have begun to think that they can too. Folks, it’s like playing the lotto. You have the same chance winning whether you play or not. You won’t get discovered…
