1/2 cent videos

I decided to test the 1/2 cent videos today. I had a lot on my video page. I spent one hour watching 1/2 cent videos. Some were very long with one being over 6 minutes. Most did credit but I ended up making 6 cents in about one hour. However, it is passive watching. You can have your morning coffee relaxing and thinking while watching. Some were interesting. There was one with kittens that was very cute.

I found a few that would credit sometimes.   I am glad they are finally crediting for people.   Good idea about morning coffee and watching videos.  I think I will do that now.

Typically on the half cent videos, all that is needed to view for credit is the first 30 seconds.  I know because I tried this a long time ago.  Something told me that 6 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes or something like that for a half penny just didn't make sense.  ( or cents, pun intended ). 

I figured the worst thing that would happen is I would not get credit; but at least I didn't spend any time at all to find this out.

Another reason that I had the confidence to try this is that the advertisers used to string together several 1/2 cent videos.  When I opened the page and began viewing number one, a tab came across the bottom of the screen that said 'next video'.  That tab appeared after only 30 seconds.  So I was able to rack up a few pennies in a short time all within one 1/2 cent video offer.
