Seventeen Bucks For A YouTube Minisite Script
Before you get as excited as I was BEFORE installing and testing, please read my negative commentary below, first! I didn’t realize there were any negatives other than the rather ugly design until after I tested the script… so even if you get something for a pittance and share it with delight before you install it – it may not be as good as it sounded at the outset! *sigh*
YouTube MiniSite Script - now $17 (not sure how long Brett will leave it at that price though… I grabbed it last night for a special price that’s now changed.)
You can also monetize the script with your Google AdSense AND anything else you want. Choose the videos you show by adding keywords (and let YouTube pay for the bandwidth) how cool is that?
Ok… here’s a BIG NEGATIVE (for me, anyway) that I discovered regarding this particular script… I installed it, and set up spiritually related keywords… and discovered by accident that there are some VERY nasty coattail riders in the keyword usage department (spell that lying cheaters). There are some ‘adult’ content video makers who MIS-use keywords related to “The Secret” (the wonderful movie & book about getting more prosperity and anything you want attracted to your life), and even with keywords related to spirituality and the law of attraction itself.
Obviously, these abundance and spiritual keywords are totally unrelated to THEIR nasty content but they don’t give a care, because they know these are very profitable keywords and they use them, right along with their related adult-content keywords. So…. for me that was a huge negative regarding an otherwise pretty slick script for the price.
The script pulls in *everything* related to the keywords that you set… regardless of whether or not they are really related (how would a script know that a pornish liar used spiritual keywords to better promote his/her smut?) so I did ask a top programmer if he can fix this – because if he cannot, even $1 is too much to pay if you don’t want ANY unrelated stuff on your special You Tube video page!
I’ll let you know if Will can fix this script to reject certain content, and if not…. then I rescind my invitation to order it for those who definitely DO care what kinds of videos show up on their video site. I for one, am a family-oriented websites only type of person and I’m sure I’m not alone there ! But… if you aren’t really bothered by a few stray unsavory videos showing up on your site… then it’s a pretty good deal.
