YouTube's Logo

YouTube is a popular Web site that was used to first introduce the LG15 series. YouTube allows anyone with an internet account and a camera to post homemade videos online.

Lonelygirl15 was the most-subscribed user on YouTube from September 2006 through April 2007, and remains in the top 10 as of February 2008. Originally, the videos on lonelygirl15.com and Bree's MySpace account were hosted by YouTube. From A Change In My Life through Mission Gamma, they were hosted on Revver, although videos were also posted on YouTube during that time. Since Mission Gamma, except for two events hosted by Myspace, videos at lg15.com continue to be hosted by YouTube.

When Revver was being used, the videos would appear on Revver first. The delay between the posting on Revver and on YouTube would vary from a few hours to a few days. Since Revver's business model was to pay video creators through sharing of advertising revenue, it appears this strategy was intended to drive more traffic to the Revver version of videos. However, there were fans who remained loyal to YouTube, and refused to watch the Revver videos. The show moved back to YouTube once lonelygirl15 became a YouTube "partner", eligible to share advertising revenue.

Unlike lonelygirl15, its spin-off show KateModern premiered on Bebo and will only air on YouTube through the account katemodernlg15.
