Over 1 Billion Served!

That's right, McDonalds has finally served fries to 1 billion people. Well, if YouTube was McDonalds, it would. And if videos were known as fries.

But yes, YouTube now has 1 billion views a day. Possibly more. Absolutely blooming amazing, if I say so myself.

I always knew it as the biggest video site on the net. But biggest is an understatement when you look at those figures. Honestly, most sites probably don't do as well. Obviously, we have Google, Yahoo, Facebook and all of those very popular sites too, but those are the only thing fighting against YouTube when it comes to amount of views.

So how do they cope with this bandwidth? It must be expensive. Well, Google is rich, and as everybody knows, money rules the world, especially in our current economic crisis. So obviously, they will probably be viewing the payment for this bandwidth as absolutely nothing at all.

Speaking of Google, they're number 1 when it comes to views. That is obvious, considering that everyone with the internet Googles at least one thing every two days. By being first, they got a lot of money, and thus, bought YouTube.

Best business plan ever.

YouTube is used a lot, and gets lots of views, so it would have made Google money. Which they could subsequently use for bandwidth, which would get them more and more views. And 1 billion or more a day? That will make them a lot of money. Which they'll need for that sort of bandwidth.

But honestly. One billion. One freakin' billion. Wow. Just wow.

If only SearchWarp had that many views per day.

Great article. Well done.
 
You convey the facts well. However, in order to improve your articles you need depth. Explain how this happens.
 
Plus a bit of work on your argumentative skills. You need to (metaphorically) punch me in the face so many times that I totally get the points in your argument. As part of this you should have a look over how the paragraphs fit together to give a logical and well ordered argument.
 
But never be downhearted - you are a great writer. But there is room for improvement and I guess that is why you, like me, are here at SearchWarp.
