MAKING MONEY FROM MOVIE STREAMING SITES :
P2P file-sharing circles it’s generally
accepted that individual users are sharing not for profit but there are some
who see online piracy as a way to make money. Uploading content to file-hosting
sites and spreading links to popular streaming sites around the web is a
popular way to making decent amounts of money.
Sites like PrimeWire.ag and Movie4K
became a biggest place to watch authorized movies online. They host links to
all of the latest movies to view within a browser, but where does that content
come from and how does it get there? What motivates people to contribute? It is
all about the money.
A file host is someone like YouTube or
the now defunct Mega Video. Of course there are hundreds of others out there
and many of them have public, and often times private, affiliate programs. The
basic mechanism is that users upload hot content to file-hosting sites. The
more people who visit that site to view the content the more advertising
revenue the file-holster makes. The file-holster’s affiliate scheme then kicks
in and part of the ad revenue generated gets sent to the uploader of the
content. It is around $1 to $2 per 1,000 views of a movie or TV show. Of
course, putting content on a file-hoster is one thing, driving traffic to that
content in order to generate the clicks – and the revenue – is another. This is
where streaming link sites come in. By uploading hot movies and TV shows to
file-hosters and then submitting their links to streaming indexes, more people
find the content.post your links on one of the popular streaming websites like PrimeWire.ag, Movie4k.to or even up-and-comers such
as TheShowDepot.com, and collect your money. Even sites
like seedboxes are a new way to download massive amounts of TV shows and movies
and some software automatically uploads the video files to the file hosts.
To some readers the idea of making
money from unauthorized content will be something that’s unacceptable, yet it’s
a difficult reality to escape online. While the vast majority of file-sharers
and stream viewers will have no financial interest in the content being viewed,
there will always be a small minority who seek to monetize it.
