I've Got It
Since people seem to be throwing out exact values, I'd just like to point out that your earnings largely depend on what type of ads you use and how well they perform. Some networks have a cap, like Machinima who pays up to $2.50 per 1,000 views. However, it all depends on what network you join and what type of contract they offer you. There is no exact amount that partners get paid.
This is very true, but if anyone follows any Machinima Partners you might have seen the a month where all the Partners Big / Small and Medium were having a crack at Machinima about anything they could think about due to a few things.
1: They changed the Contract for 5 Years to 7 Years - People bitched and moan about a contract they signed which was for 7 Years.......WTF......due to Machinima losing 3 Big Stars
2: It came out a Big and I mean Big Partner demanded more money per 1000 views and got it - So people bitched about the $1.50 - $3.00 they were being paid per 1000 views.
So if I was on Machinima I would b***h like a MOFO at having a 7 Year Partnership ( A Dream ) and being paid $1.50 per 1000 views ( A Dream ).
The Small Partnership channels would be making between $200.00 - $1000.00 per month if they keep to what made them a partner and just increase the actual upload volume.
The Cap you say Machinima has at $2.50 is way out as I know they now pay $5.00 and most Large Partners are on $3.50-$4.00
