Get paid to put your videos online

Let's face it, if you haven't heard of Youtube then you're living in a cave.........without a solar powered laptop connected to a city-wide WiFi connection (wow, you can get the internet anywhere these days, even in that cave every recluse seems to live in). Well believe it or not there's actually some other websites out there that are practically identical to Youtube. The main difference is that the others often cater for a specific demographic. The one we're telling you about today is Metacafe. "Why?" we hear you ask, well, they pay you, we reply. The basic idea is that if you have a video which is 100% your own creation including what you see and what you can hear then you can submit it to their website and make it a "Producer Reward Candidate". To be clear, you can add most videos to it even if they aren't entirely your own creation, just like Youtube but you won't get paid for those ones.

So, how do you make money? Well, after you've uploaded your video, other members will come across it and when they watch it, they give it a rating. If it is giving a rating of over 3/5 then you can start getting paid for it. If it's VERY good, the admin of the website will put it as a featured video on their homepage and this is when you get paid the most. BREAK is another similar website. Both offer money for good original videos. So, get uploading people and you could make a mint. Here's some links.
