There Is More To Viral Video Than YouTube And Google

When it comes to viral video marketing, everyone knows about YouTube and Google Video. But those are not your only options. I wanted to take this time to share with you some other places you can upload your videos as well. Here’s the list of video directories I recommend:

  • YouTube - Needs no introduction.
  • Google Video - I think you know who they are.
  • Yahoo! Video - Did you know the largest search portal on the Internet has a place where you can upload your videos? I highly recommend using Yahoo! Video in addition to YouTube and Google.
  • MetaCafe - MetaCafe encourages users to vote on their favorite videos.
  • Break.com - Break is unique in that they offer monetary prizes for the best videos in certain categories, including Girl of the Day, and they have ways for videos to make money being the most popular.
  • DailyMotion - DailyMotion is very popular and it’s easy to see why. You can upload your videos, join groups, and share your videos with your group. This adds a new twist to social networking.

When it comes to marketing yourself through viral video, don’t just settle for YouTube and Google Video. They may be the most popular video sites on the web, but they are not the only video sites. Get your video out there in as many places as you can because some of the most devoted video marketing freaks aren’t YouTube junkies. Some of the best viral video marketers are actually hanging out in some of these other places too. Oh, and one more for the road: Try Blinkx. It rocks.

Useful article!

How about WeBetUR.com? It has video uploads as well and I read that it seems to one community that is growing.
