There are many websites where they pay you to post videos, which is a great way to make money online. All of them do not work in exactly the same way, but the one thing in common to all is that they offer some way to earn income, without doing a lot of work. Once you are through with the initial work, thereafter most of what you earn is passive income.

There are many websites where they pay you to post videos, which is a great way to make money online. All of them do not work in exactly the same way, but the one thing in common to all is that they offer some way to earn income, without doing a lot of work. Once you are through with the initial work, thereafter most of what you earn is passive income.

One such site is Share-A-Flick. The site was started around the beginning of 2007 and provides one of the best ways for payment of videos posted on the site. They have three different ways of payment. The first is to pay for every unique view of the posted video. Unique viewing means that even if your video is viewed thousands of times, you get paid only for the first time. The second is by an additional benefit by allowing you to post your Google ads on each of your video pages. All that you need to do is to add your Google ID to the form. And finally you make money through referrals. Every time you refer to a new person, you become entitled to 10% of all future view earnings of that person's video.

These three are the basic ways to get paid on Share-A-Flick for posting videos. There are other ways in which you can capitalize on earning from posting videos at the site. Your greatest advantage in this direction comes from being able to post not only your videos, but also those from other places, where they allow you to embed other people's videos in your web pages. Videos from YouTube, MySpace and Google are automatically approved. Therefore, you can post all your favourite videos from these sites on Share-A-Flick and get paid for each unique page view. If you happen to embed a video from somewhere else, then you will need to wait for approval. There is no charge for signing up and posting videos on the Share-A-Flick website. Payout limit is at $20. Other places usually do not permit cash out below $50.

Another good site where you can make money through video postings is Flixya. The best thing about it is that it is quite similar to Share-A-Flick in the sense that the site allows you to post Google ads around the videos that you post on the site. This can be done simply by letting them have your Google Adsense ID once at the initial time of signing up. They also have a referral program that again spells some more money. Displaying your Google Adsense ID on your referred video pages 20% of the time, the Flixya referral program works, when they are displayed. On Flixya, there are no restrictions and you can post your own videos including embedded ones from anywhere. There are no charges for signing up.

Yet another site is Metacafe. They pay you decent money if your posted video is entertaining and gets a high number of views. When your video exceeds 20,000 views and is able to get a 3.0 rating after that, you get paid $5 for every 1000 views. The video rights remain to be yours and you can also post your videos, wherever else you want.
