Viral Videos

There are underlying reasons as to why film trailers get so many views so quickly on Youtube. Certain companies like YTM help "seed" certain videos across the internet through various ways of advertising.

I didn't know that:

• YTM charges 10 to 15 cents per view.
• YTM is connected to about 5000 highly-trafficked websites.
• YTM can target a specific adudience, much to your own desires, to advertise a video.

I thought this article was interesting. I like that I FINALLY understand why some videos become so trendy so quickly. I also think that it's interesting to know that YTM will do the math, literally, to see how many views a certain video can.

My one question is why does YTM charge so much per view?
