An online video platform (OVP) is a service that allows subscribers to upload, convert, store and play back again video content on the Internet, often via a structured, large-scale system that can generate revenue. With online video rapidly being an important means for individuals to meet their information and entertainment needs, small enterprises that fail to include it in their marketing strategies will have so much to lose. A decade ago, a variety of online video platforms clamor for attention like iTunes, Blip, Dailymotion, Myspace, and Metacafe but in a short time, the chase was over. In recent years, different new platforms have surfaced, and their impact is greatly felt. For instance, brands can create their video and upload them to Facebook without paying a dime, and they account for incredible success. Also, Snapchat lets any of its users broadcast to their followers with the My Story feature though the video is just 10seconds its success is very high, many brands have used Vine and Instagram to great effect. But in all, YouTube is still the biggest online video platform by far.
YouTube video gets more than 1 billion viewers every month, and most of the views come from mobile devices. These viewers represent a lot of potential customers. YouTube offers the opportunity to reach your audience via demographics, keywords or topics like “just for teens.” You could also know the number of viewers your videos have gotten and can get to know how your customers feel about your product from their comments. It is possible to facilitate discovery of or engagement (shares, comments, and likes) with your video ads using YouTube video platform but without an excellent marketing video, you will not rank high in the search engine as your video needs to shine through among 4billion others that are viewed daily.
