Everyone knows how popular YouTube videos can be. Now Google is allowing them to be used as part of your AdSense campaign. The YouTube video will be shown as a thumbnail with three lines of text. When a person clicks on the video they will be taken to the video or video channel.

 

There will be five size options available for the YouTube videos. They will include 300×250 Medium Rectangle, 336×280 Large Rectangle, 728×90 Leader-board, 250×250 Square, and a 200×200 Small Square.

 

The videos used have to meet YouTube’s terms of advertising guidelines, the terms of use, and the community guidelines. They will be auctioned off in the standard ad auction. Businesses will be bidding to be shown on a user’s page.

 

The YouTube video ads are only going to be available in English and to U.S. Publishers right now. Google hopes to offer this service to other languages and regions in the future.

 

This is going to be a great way for publishers to increase their AdSense earnings while YouTube video creators will have more opportunities to have their work showcased.
