My friend told me it was possible to make a profit simply by submitting content on youtube. He said that every 1000 hits you get, you make $100. Also, Anime was banished from youtube due to the site and users making a profit off of it. Is this all true?

If it was, everyone would have accounts and the people who get millions of views would be rich.

No.

Anime was banned because all the makers of those wonderful shows are total pricks.

Forgot to mention, he said free money because ads would pay for the hits. ADS.

Well lets look at it this way, if it was true this kid would have made $2,548,661. For some reason I don't think Youtube would do that.

That's absurd.

While people may act like it, by submitting video after crappy video, but it's not the case.

Even if they did pay money for videos, it certainly wouldn't be 10 cents per hit.

But if they did, this guy would be rich.

Do they pay any money though? I'm sure they would, or no one would care to submit embarrasing footage such as rick roll.

No. They pay no money, unless it's some under-the-table mafia deal.

Don't you think that, if they paid 10 cents a hit on every video they submit, they would advertise that fact?

No.
