Pre-Roll Video Ads
by Tass on Sep.03, 2010, under youtube
Last week, YouTube opened up their video ad program to all partners. I’ve been waiting for this for over a year now, and have implemented video ads into about 100 of my videos. Unfortunately, video ads seem to be for on-YouTube views only… which means the 70% of my views that take place off-YouTube won’t have them.
If any of you have seen some of these ads appear since yesterday… what are your thoughts on them? Are they too intrusive? Will you still watch videos despite having to wait 15 seconds for them to load?

TBH I didn’t see many (if any) ads, but if I do I’ll probably just ctrl+tab to some other thing ta wait until ta ads over. Who looks at them, anyways? :V

Tass, the ads blow
Seriously though, do you have any control of what type of ad is placed? If they were a little bit relevant to gaming, it might be interesting. But an unskippable political ad on a game walkthrough? Ugh.
