Up until recently I didn’t think my videos on Google Video were getting many views. Then I discovered you can enter your account and see total views. I’ve got more than 250,000 views on my videos. Here are a few.
I ‘d recommend submitting your work to Google even if you put it elsewhere… seems that although traffic to Google Video is lower than YouTube, my content is getting more than twice the visibility.

Thanks to a banner on Revver, I discovered that you can watch free full episodes of The Office at NBC.com. This is a big step forward for traditional media, and hopefully the studios compensate writers for this. Parenthetically, I still haven’t heard from The Office about my pitch to be in one of the shows….
Sorry. This is the kinda post that industry people don’t care about, but some of my viewers might. I’m going live with Rhett & Link tonight (Thursday, April 17 at 9 EST). That’s 2 am for you folks in England, but you never sleep anyway. [Added April 21: here’s the archive of the show]. Rhett…
Views of any of my videos appears inversely related to a) how much time I put into them, and b) how much I like them. This parody of CES (consumer electronics show in Las Vegas) took longer than expected, but I don’t like it. So maybe the forces will counteract. Interested in the “making of”…
USAToday reports that some YouTube amateurs are getting discovered and some producers are trolling it to find talent. To date my phone hasn’t rang. But if you’re reading, dear scouts, my stuff is here. Here’s a profile of 3 stars that “made it big.”
Not a lot of the online video sites pay much attention to the blogosphere (yes I’m talking about YouTube especially) so it’s nice to get a note like the one below. The backdrop is that I produced a video called “Lay Me Off” (aka “Fireable Offense”) that features myself trying to get laid off. Folks…

I use the Google ‘Reports’ section you’re talking about as a tool to see which of my videos continue to get views and which peaked early.Very useful tool. Much better than a pie chart of the top 5 videos! I can check views by day, week, month or any specified period of time! Very informative tool.
I do miss having specific details per video. Even better- I’d like to know what they viewed before/after my video. This shouldn’t be that difficult because each video is a unique URL. And finally, if the video is viewed somewhere else (syndicated) I sure would like to know where it is. That helps me know where my stuff needs to be. Frustrating being in the dark from an analytics standpoint…
Hahaha! You make me want stuff I never dreamed could exist.
