I just got offered $310 for my youtube account
 
$310 to transfer complete control of my account to them... probably because I have a vid with 3.4 million views.

Reckon it's worth it? :D Never really thought about a market for trading or selling accounts, but now that I've come across it I'm not surprised that it exists.

Ask for $500.

Whats the video of?

Loch 03-28-2010 05:29 PM

yeah, link please

VHNet 03-28-2010 05:34 PM

Definitely a market for "good" youtube accounts among the ranks of blackhat internet marketers....

If they don't make money off your account themselves, they'll arbitrage it for more on some russian or blackhat forum.

StrokeKing 03-28-2010 05:39 PM

Show us what video please? i am really curious about it

bloggerz 03-28-2010 05:40 PM

take it and run

Klen 03-28-2010 05:44 PM

Does it come with partner account?

closer 03-28-2010 05:51 PM

Take it and start over!

What mr. baddog said.

I guess some older accounts can do things that newer accounts can't do. That would be one reason why there's a premium on some accounts.

There's one being sold on eBay. Current bid is $78

Watch it. See where it ends and see how your offer compares.

What do you mean? I have several accounts new and old and they all have the same access.

Horny Dude 03-28-2010 06:29 PM

Guess I missed this lesson. How do you make bank off of YouTube? I tried to post some videos on there, but they got removed for various reasons.

DBS.US 03-28-2010 06:31 PM

How much have you made with the vid with 3.4 million views?

How are you suppose to buy something if you don't know what it is?

rowan 03-28-2010 07:26 PM

Can't give away all my secrets ;)

Checked the a/c and there's 375 subscribers, so I don't think that's where the value lays.

youtube keeps sending me one of those "join our partner network with your popular video" notifications for a video with a title like "hot oily bikini ass jiggle" :1orglaugh do they actually accept that shit?

Agent 488 03-28-2010 07:35 PM

maybe your video ranks for some term in youtube search. youtube is the biggest search engine behind google after all ...

It's a bot sending the notice. If you sign up they may look at the video and take it off.:2 cents:

I get that all the time too, then it says if for some reason they don't like it they can kill your account.

Catch 22 for sure.

fatfoo 03-28-2010 08:01 PM

$310.. Unbelievable. I agree that you should bargain for a bigger price if you accept to sell account.

Does your account have something to do with the video? I mean you could recreate the same "High Views Video" effect from a different youtube account, right? In that case, you could sell your present account.

rowan 03-28-2010 09:51 PM

It's a bit like a domain you register on impulse... you just "know" you're going to do something big with it, but when that is actually going to happen is the question!

Future views on the existing popular vid can be used to generate views on new vids or even direct clicks... but I have to get around to doing that first. Maybe a one-off payment wouldn't be so bad. ;)
