Why Video Has Taken Centre Stage Online

Virtual Presenters

The use of video on websites has many positive effects on people who become interactive with the website. Websites that use web video production include, YouTube, Face Book, MySpace, E4, 4od etc. the way in which the video’s connect with the audiences are on many levels as the viewers can have a visual on things that they properly wouldn’t bother to read about.

The internet communicates on several levels which are audio and visual.

With the internet becoming very popular and people relying on information on the internet, audiences will look for a specific type of information that they will be able to understand and connect with, the most popular source of information is video based.

When people are given the chance to either read or watch something giving out information on the internet, people are more likely to prefer to watch a video presenters. Todays browsers are of the TV era and they are simply more conditioned to watch than read.

To advertise products to the correct audiences, institutions will place their product on specific websites such as, Face book, as Face book allows advertising at the side of the welcome home page to every individual member.

Another very successful way to advertise a product is to use a presenter to encourage people, this can be evidenced on websites such as homepages to internet services i.e. SKY, MSN etc. on these particular pages I found a detailed advertisement advertising “weight loss products” within this advertisement a woman is shown before and after in a bikini, with her discussing how the product worked for her and giving people details of how to use the product. By being able to see and hear positive feedback about a certain product convinces people to believe in the product.

Audiences need information to be laid out for them in the ways that they will want to watch it, if the information they are looking for is not set out in a specific way (Text, Video’s etc) they will immediately leave the website and look else where.

Certain websites only give out specific ways of presenting information, some are completely text based, video based or they could be a mixture of both.

By choosing to present information in popular, understanding and more interesting ways for audiences then the website will receive more hits and become popular for the information that they give out to audiences.
 

YouTube is a website that offers millions of video’s that can be easily found in the search engine, when logging into You tube it immediately gives you things that you may like to watch on the basis of videos you have already viewed. Its easy to find content on Youtube as they suggest videos that match video content you already have viewed. You tube is a very reliable website to find information by video.

The internet overall generates information in many ways. As people rely on the internet for information, it is very important that the popular and not so popular websites keep up to date with how information should be presented to audiences as this will have a huge impact on the views that the website receive.

 

Why Video Is Taking Over The Internet

online presenter

Websites use active animation on there homepages to simply keep people interested, this can prove very positive and will hold the attention of the viewer through interactivity. Most web sites now days use some kind of interaction. The internet was created to house all the information in the world and with more being added every day searching for one thing among this massive library can be a very boring and long process so things like banners and hosts are used.

If a site was to have huge blocks of text you would quickly loose interest, but if say a virtual presenter pops up when you log on you are more in cline to pay attention, especially if web presenter is representing the site; for example a cosmetic company could use a ‘perfect’ woman to lure viewers in to thinking they could also look like this, this could count as a demonstration. Internet based companies like ‘Skype’ and ‘MSN’ use virtual presenters, they accompany you through installing there software on to your system.  

It doesn’t have to be as sophisticated as a web presenters it can be banners at the sides, above or below. These while faster can be just as effective if used in the right way; for example on ‘Gametrailers.com’ they use banners to advertise online games or up and coming releases. If you were to use the banner on say a sport website.com’ they wouldn’t be reaching the target audience making them useless.

 Social networking sites like Face book and MySpace use both use banners and presenters to target their audience. On Face Book there are usually ads all over the page, advertising things like online games or ‘Trace your family tree’. The growing popularity in interactivity among online companies is leading to more advertises using the wed instead of TV, this is increasing the audience for the net thus increasing revenue, while decreasing the audience for TV.
