Hey Everyone;

I am new to YTTalk & YouTube, and I have some questions regarding networks.

My brand new YT channel is starting to kickoff and I wanted to ask a few things for the sake of the future.

Currently, the three networks I would be interested are FullScreen, Machinima and Maker (The Game Station).

Yes, I am a gaming channel.

So, my questions to all Fullscreen/Machinima/Maker partners:

Which one of the networks would you recommend for my gaming channel?
Are you happy at your network, if so, which one?
Would I be able to get into your network (include network name) with 400-500 subscribers and ~10k views?
What is the support like at your network (include network name)
What is the best way to apply to your network BESIDES directly through the website?
If my channel grows enough, could you refer me to your network?
Does your network pay a flat rate or a split percent? If percent, what percent do you receive?
Does your network usually pay you more or less then 2.50 CPM (Not asking for exact since you probably cannot say)?

Thanks guys, I really appreciate any assistance.
1. Since you're just starting out, I'd see no problem with any of the 3, your not locked in forever with any (by my knowledge) just read over their contracts.
2. Only just joined Machinima, but things are going pretty smoothly I'd say.
3. Try for yourself.
4. I've gotten responses for everything I've asked within 1-2 days.
5. Website/Affiliates sign up/Contact a recruiter
6. If your channel grows enough you won't need to be referred, you can just apply and get in!

TGS only has a one year contract, but they want around 500,000 views a month.

I believe you only qualify for machinima.

You are borderline on Fullscreen, and not even close for TGS.

Consider RPM network (Maker) as they can bump you up to TGS when you qualify.

It looks like you are partnered with BBTV?
But to answer some of your questions:

Which one of the networks would you recommend for my gaming channel?

Fullscreen/Creator X (I'm in Creator X and LOVE IT!)

Are you happy at your network, if so, which one?

Yeah, I am pretty happy with where I am at :)

Would I be able to get into your network (include network name) with 400-500 subscribers and ~10k views?

As far as I know, Creator simple wants about 100 or views a day if I am not mistaken (that's where I was when I got partnered).

What is the support like at your network (Fullscreen/Creator X)

I think the Support Staff is great, I get quick responses, plus the Forum itself is pretty great!

What is the best way to apply to your network BESIDES directly through the website?

Either on there website, or be referred in.

If my channel grows enough, could you refer me to your network?

I don't see why not lol

Does your network pay a flat rate or a split percent? If percent, what percent do you receive?

Split Percentage, but I can't say my % though ;)

Does your network usually pay you more or less then 2.50 CPM (Not asking for exact since you probably cannot say)?
I would say right around average for CPM, but I have seen some higher CPM's come through since the start of Tax Season.

Doesn't mean I don't read your answers. Thanks for the replies.

I am with BBTV, specifically TGN. But about 26 days ago I put in a termination request. Joining TGN is not one of the better decisions I have made. I jumped at it since I could leave whenever I want.

I'll be released in a couple days, and I am in a juggle between RPM(Maker) and Arcade(Fullscreen).

I am also tossing around Curse, somewhere in there.

What do you guys think on the matter?

I would jump right at Fullscreen but their offering a 60/40 split and a minimum $100 to be paid, when I expect 70/30 and no minimum.

Thanks;
