Video View Count: Short Shelf Life vs. Long Tail

ByNalts

TubeMogul reports on the short shelf life of online videos (courtesy of ReelPopBlog). While it’s true that 25% of video’s views tend to occur within the first 4 days, this is a bit missleading. First, TubeMogul focused on videos exceeding 1,000 views and the website is used more by serious content creators looking for broad distribution. Second,…

    I want to get myself one of these.
    I am going to the 888 gathering in Toronto, and I will be in the Philadelphia area circa August 12 I am going to call this gathering of one as the YoYo tube.
