Would Meh be interested in sponsoring some YouTube videos?

Dizavid thought this was worth mentioning said Sat, May 14th 2016 at 4:46pm ET

This website has quickly become a big part of my life, and I wonder if plugs in my bigger YouTube videos would be worth anything to the fine folks at Meh. Since I'm still pretty small time, store credit could even suffice for a bit. Growing very rapidly now, though. It would be really cool if I could promote a super awesome site like Meh as I'm growing my own brand.

You should contact support - the support people are the ones to get in contact with for stuff like this. It's how I placed an ad on Meh before.
Maybe your video could be the ad for the day.
Paging @dave for you so you can get additional information.

Because if there's one thing everybody loves on Youtube, it's paid plugs for stuff.

- @Starblind I do, actually, I think it's very often hilarious how my favorite guys work them into the videos.

What is your YouTube Channel?

I doubt they'd want to advertise with anyone. A good daily deal does their marketing for them.

There are a handful of youtubers that would fit Meh. There is a lot of great content on YouTube, I probably watch more of it than traditional tv.

  I identify a lot with the Meh style. Like Meh, I do my best to put out decent quality work, but I don't break my back on it most of the time.

- @Dizavid not to rain on your parade or anything but with 104 subscribers, even if they're interested, I don't think you'll be getting any sort of massive kickback from them.
  
  For example, targeted ads on Facebook are sold in blocks of 1000 impressions for ~$0.19, if, for example, your most popular video had said ad running since day 1 it'd still only amount to around $1.80 at that rate. Granted, video ads probably price higher than banners and text ads but I don't see a lot of money in this for you at this juncture.

- @jbartus Well, yeah, I wouldn't expect anything give right now. But maybe have a plug in a video, grab a free VMP month or something.

- @Dizavid Uh FWIW I just realized I flubbed the math, that ought've been $3.60 not $1.80 before.
  
  At any rate, best of luck, I just wanted to point out the competition's rates so you wouldn't be too disappointed if it doesn't amount to much.

No, we're full, the more meh becomes popular the more it becomes the monster known as woot. Only expand at the word of mouth.

I can see how this can go. So I got this great deal on this Chromebook, only $160, you should check it out.
The next day a someone clicks on meh in hopes of getting a Chromebook only to find a watch.
