Soulja Boy (and probably others) Make Huge Cash Off Of Youtube

MaK10 · 08-13-2008, 04:19 PM

In the latest shitty video from Soulja Boy Tellem, the young [shitty] rapper comes out and tells everyone how much youtube pays him per view and per comment and it's kind of ridiculous when you think about it. According to him he makes .15 cents per comment and .02 cents per view, so if you look at his video for "Crank That", which has almost 39 million views, he's made almost a million bucks just on that one video.... 1 MILLION FUCKING DOLLARS! Youuuuuuuuuuuu!! I refuse to post his latest video here because I refuse to give him any publicity towards making more money (even though this site is hardly publicity). But now it makes sense as to why Avril Lavigne was pushing her fans to watch her videos to try and make her the most viewed video on youtube.... so she could make bank since her concert ticket sales were shit.

Anyone want to make a video of something stupid as hell and try to get people to view it just to spite Soulja Boy? I still can't believe this... If you're a youtube director that is getting paid for your content let us know if these are realistic numbers or if he's just making shit up...

youtube shares revenue with content partners (such as soulja boy) based on video activity.
