The History of Youtube
Youtube was created in February 2005 by the three former PayPal employees, Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim. A year later, Google bought Youtube for US$1.65 billion and is now operated as a subsidiary of Google. Most of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals that each of them have their own purposes. It could be video clips, movie clips, tutorial clips, trailer clips, porn clips, daily life clips, video blogging, and other short original videos
Youtube, by far has become the world’s largest video on demand platform and its one of the most popular streaming video and audio sites where many people are searching for stuff they're interested in.
Google to Monetize Youtube
Google admits that they wants to monetize this site but they also admits that they still having a problem in monetizing YouTube. The problem is that advertisers are having trouble finding content they want to put ads with. Another problem is copyright. If you are the creator of that content, you own the copyright. That would have mean that you should have the rights to decide whether you want to advertising on your videos.
Now, Google is trying to push post-roll and pre-roll ads in all the video content. As NewTeeVee has point it out, these post-roll ads only appear if you do not click on the overlay ads while a video is playing. While in pre-rolls ads, a user has to finish watching such an ads before they can proceed to the video that they have already chosen to watch.
