Top 20 Video Sharing Sites
Another comprehensive review of online video sites. Someone needs to make a “top 20 list of online video site reviews.” Maybe I’ll do that. Tomorrow.

What do you get when you mash Sarah Silverman’s “I’m F’ing Matt Damon” with this recent AP News clip of Matt Damon droning about Sarah Palin’s character? This little video musica I’m calling “Sarah Palin is F’ing Matt Damon.” If you like it, it’s mine. If you were offended as a God-fearing Democrat or Republican,…
As many as 25% of the views of a video may come from people finishing a related video. This chart shows the percentage of views that come from various sources to my “The Best of Naked Vlogs.” This is not a representative example, but look at the percent of traffic that comes from “related video”…
Imagine trying to run Hulu… On one hand, you’re dragging some media companies to the web. On the other, they’re out ahead of you on competitive platforms (Disney/App). You threaten to quit because your pricing is wrong (FastCompany). You’re charging for content that has ads, but at least the user interface is clunky… because some…
In case you haven’t heard, the world’s largest online-video site is challenging television and cable with 100 channels funded by $100 million.

While the online-video space is expected to grow more than 40% annually for the next three years (eMarketer), an AdAge article today reminds us that the boom isn’t “evenly distributed,” with two companies as the primary recipients of shifting advertising dollars.

Here are the one’s I like.
Atom Films – higher quality more professional films, revenue sharing
Reel to reel – higher quality, more professional videos.
Revver – opportunity for revenue sharing but difficult to get exposure for your video. No groups to join that I could find. They take any video except hard porn. There is some sort of review process for selecting videos for Verizon VCast that in my opinion is not very good. The majority of their videos on V-cast aren’t that great even though they have lots of great stuff avilable on their site that they could use instead. The contests are interesting and fun.
Flixya – opportunity for revenue sharing but difficult to expose your video. Haven’t seen any contests yet. No groups to join.
Friendster- Very difficult to embed a video from another site. It can be done, but only in a round about way.
Jumpcut – bad quality video but best web design by far. It’s the best site for getting videos viewed by others), more contests than all others I have seen. By far, the most fun. The major two downfals are the you can’t embed videos from other sites, and the quality is not as good as others mentioned above.
Magnify.net – This is best for small private groups. Don’t expect high exposure from the groups within this site.
Here is a link to a very good discussion anout the top sharing sites. I found it quite useful and didn’t see anything that I disagreed with. The only thing I would add is that Jumpcut’s web design is superior. However, their video quality is not nearly as good as the majority of their competitors, and there is no way to wornload a video from their site.
