I'm working on some video content I'm going to publish and I'm thinking of ways to monetize on it.
(I'm doing it for other reasons and monetizing would be just a bonus).
Content wise i'm working on video tutorial with exercises. It's a niche market and I'm one of the few with some experience in the specific tech, but many people will want to learn this tech in the years to come.
Some options of menetization I see:
1. publish on youtube and combine it with adsense
2. make a dedicated website (I'm leaning towards this option) and
- serve videos from youtube, still put adsense on top of it (does that work?)
- put other adds on the page
- add "donate" paypal button, people who donate get add-free content, maybe also bonus content
- problem 1: can I do it with youtube? I'd probably need another youtube account to streem add-free, but how can I limit it to be accessible only from my page
- problem 2: my target audience probably knows about adblock
- maybe also add forum make people return more often
3. Make some content free, but only provide full content for a fee (maybe even subscription based)
What would in your experience work best?
