We tend to watch videos belonging to the following five major categories more than any others: cat videos, music and dance videos, baby videos, funny videos and porn. You discover this browsing through a lot of blogs on a daily basis.
The list is compiled by video distribution agency goviral, pimped by Kuaga.
1. Cullman Liquidation – Mobile Homes.
Two enthusiasts launched an online initiative “I Love Commercials”. The website offers internet users to nominate their favorite local business for a free video commercial.
One of the lucky companies to get a free ad was a mobile home seller Cullman Liquidation. One month live, the video has become a viral hit and has been watched by one million people on Youtube. It’s a shared success story for the business and I Love Commercials. Over 100 companies across the US have lined up for a free ad.
You will find this post particularly useful if you consider trying video advertising on your blog in addition to (or instead of) traditional banner advertising or simply because you want to get paid for posting videos on you blog.
While many bloggers have heard about video advertising, not many completely understand what’s in it for them. I will attempt to fill in this gap by showing the benefits of video advertising over traditional display advertising (for clarity: text/image/flash banners). I will also share some performance results and suggest major entry points into video advertising for bloggers.
