AdSense Video Units ROCK!

I've been getting great conversions. I only wish I had set up the Video Units sooner. They now account for 1/3 of my AdSense revenues and I've only got them on a handful of pages.

The only good news in this decision for me is that I'll be able to replace the AdSense Units (in most cases, at least) with targeted YouTube content but I'll have to figure out a way to replace the lost revenues without diminishing my visitors' experiences.

They LOVED those videos.

I didn't work for me

It's not that people didn't click to watch the youtube videos, but hardly anyone ever clicked the ads. Why would you want to stop the video to got to some spam site anyways?

It didn't convert well for

It didn't convert well for me, like most people, I can see why they are pulling the plug...

They still have the "youtube partner program" and they also have that 'downloadable" service in beta as well on youtube, so there are still plenty of other ways to make money with youtube.

Anyhow, Nice Article.

Thank you !
