Comment on A Novel Approach to Yotube Ads
viralJ@lemmy.world 10 months agoHaha two exact opposite answers. From what I remember, the advertiser can chose the payment model. They can either say “I will pay YouTube a tiny amount for every time the ad is shown” or “I will pay YouTube a less tiny amount for every time the ad is clicked”. But it was a few years ago that I read about it so it might have changed since then.

I tried actually searching for info about it, but it seems that YouTube and Google want to be as vague as possible about how it actually works.
Yes, let’s be a YouTube creator and base my income on something extremely vague and shaky. Sounds like a good life decision.

Sounds about as stable as asking the all mighty magic 8 ball how much you should be paid. Maybe yt should just do that for the creators and let them in on it. /s
