Make Money Showing YouTube Videos

Google AdSense has announced their newest addition to their publisher empire: video units.

Google states:

Simply embed a snippet of code and have relevant YouTube partner content streamed to your site. You can choose categories of video to target to your site, select content from individual YouTube partners, or have video automatically targeted to your site content. Companion and text overlay ads are relevant and non-intrusive. To further blend the YouTube player into your site, you can also customize the color scheme and layout as well as choose from three different player sizes.

[edit] I finally had it added to my account. You have to already have a YouTube account. Then head to AdSense, click the ‘AdSense Setup’, ‘Video Units’, hook your account up to YouTube by adding in some simple information. Then you’ll get the choice of what types of videos, customized outlines, size, etc. for the content you wish to show. Pretty neat!
