    How Much Would You Pay - Live Person Video Services

    So say you have 10 350+ word articles and you'd like an attractive young (guy or girl) to record them as a video and then upload them to your youtube account. How much would you pay for that?

    10 Videos

    $500
    $750
    $1000

    *It takes about 4-8 hours to complete and will be done by a professional actor/actress not just some random person off the street.

    Have you put it out to Guru or Freelancer (outsourcing/consulting sites) to see what kind of bids you're getting? That should give you an idea what the going rate is.

    $500 max? If its 8 hours max.. some actors (struggling) here in Los Angeles bill out for as low as $20/hour. (non union of course).
    I think you could find a decent one for $30-$40. But this is LA....

    You won't find actors in Guru.com, that's for sure. There are special sites for professionals who does not have an agent yet. Do your research.
    It all depends how famous and professional you want. Sure, some hollywood star would ask starting $1M... So, basically you will setup the budget not them.

    This missing the most expensive part which is editing. Getting an actor/actress is not expensive but getting the video's edited is about three times as much. It also takes more time to list and optimize a video then it does to record it.

    This doesn't even cover the cost of editing the videos... let alone recording them or posting them.

    I'm seeing a trend here. This service may only be beneficial to companies with advertising budgets. Small websites really can't justify this expense so it makes it hard for them to give a reasonable price. I guess I'll make this part of my premium SEO package which runs $5000 a month.
