Where is Google Video Now?
Since the acquisition of YouTube and Google has been trying to justify, Google Video will not be killed. Few weeks back, Google started displaying YouTube results from within it’s Google Video search results. The result was that over 90% of the videos ended up with YouTube. I am not sure how the results are sorted however between Google Video and YouTube, but in general, you see YouTube results on top. So the question is, does people still care to upload their videos to Google Video? The answer could be yes if you want less competition over videos, your video can make it easier to top 100 on Google Video. If you are thinking about selling your videos there, commercial Videos seems to have fallen apart I can no longer see pay-per-view clips. It still seems people look at Google as a FREE service provider, what ever fee based service Google opens for the public fails.
The way Google are utilizing the service now seems to be different. The trend seems to be about finding application specific usage for it rather than community posting videos. Google Video Ads is one way they are trying to benefit from the service. It’s still brand new, but it is expected to take off as soon as they have the right content. I would definitely want to post game video ads on my site. I think it would bring higher traffic. Today also, I came to know that Google have started to deliver Video Ads on it’s Google Finance page. Reuters, Forbes and Standard & Poors are delivering the feeds. Theoretically, they could still use the YouTube service to power all their applications, but this is one company Google acquired and decided to let it run separately.
