Are You Hot For Words? | How Learning Got Sexy On YouTube

by Joe on December 24, 2008

If you thought learning was boring, you’ve obviously never heard of Marina Orlova, YouTube’s ‘Hot For Words’ philologist (one who studies linguistics and etymology).

hotforwordsVideo is where it’s at.

Americans go online to watch homemade creations like ’100 Million Views’ and even network shows like ‘The Office’.

If eBay created the first wave of online entrepreneurs, YouTube is building a new army of online eTrepreneurs every day.

Money in Your Pocket

Video is cool, we know that much. But how can you make money off it, and is it realistic for you to do so?

Sure is, and yes you can.

YouTubers like Marina receive a share of the advertising revenue that Google collects off their videos. It’s called the YouTube Partner Program.

Furthermore, YouTube is generous with it’s ‘link love’. Your website is listed on the very own YouTube channel you create – free – to showcase your videos.

That means Marina’s fans can hop over to her website and purchase a calendar full of word origins – and pictures of Marina:
