Youtube CPMs for publishers are anywhere between $3 and $5 per 1,000 views for video ads, which is probably the best way to make money on Youtube without driving traffic outside of the site. It would take quite a bit of traffic to make significant money. 100,000 views would only make you $300-$500. So you would need to make great content and a lot of videos to make some cash on that.

I've got an idea to run an reality YouTube show in the DR. Monthly operating costs will run around $2K, depending on how much movement is involved, but it will be based off the N. Coast. That's not including hiring a film crew now and again or professional editing. That stuff is cheap down there.Hardware cost might run another $4K, depending on the amount cameras required to cover the house, plus a quality digital video recorder, wireless mics, covert cams to wear. I'd pay for a consult with a production guru this, but I'm very knowledgeable with any hardware attached to a lens.

Members could come down and hangout on the cheap, but I need high energy personalities that are ready to go non-stop for 30 hours straight, and help setup complex pranks, play in a band, drink, chase pussy, pay locals to climb coconuts naked. Ideally though it'd be better to keep a regular crew. I think if we hit it hard, 3 months is enough time to get the footage to keep the channel going for awhile.

Giving some room for play, I'd say the evolution will run around $12K, and by black magics numbers stated above, will need 2M+ views to break even. Given what is on YouTube, that's really not that many, especially by posting quality shows on a consistent basis.

Once the ball gets rolling, other opportunities will present themselves. We could branch off in other directions to appeal to different demographics.

Rather than focusing on getting paid for views, you can charge a pretty penny for trips--private and/or group AND get paid for the views.

Under30CEO.com does this with Under30Experiences (hosted/guided trips) and based on the cost (does not include airfare), they do fairly well.

A few trips and you've covered your costs and then some, not including ad revenues.

Infowars does a lot of Youtube, they have some advertisements but most of their money comes from their store, they develop and sell their own products and place ads in the videos themselves. Must make pretty decent money given the amount of people on payroll.

Obviously it would be very hard to duplicate Infowars style, but it's just another idea of how to monetize viewers.
