June 26th, 2006 Zeid Nasser (Admin)
They don’t take a break at Google headquarters in Mountain View, California.
It seems we blog about two new Google services every week!
So, here’s some information on the latest. It’s called Google Video.
Google has started testing advertisements on its video site, providing free video downloads (at the moment including old TV shows) which are supported by advertising and sponsorship.
The advertising takes the form of a banner that appears above the video, with a graphic image and a link to the advertisers’ site. At the end of the video, a 15- to 30-second commercial for the advertiser is played.
Google says it plans to run auctions whereby advertisers must place a bid to have their ads displayed on each video. The advertising revenue will be split with the video owner.
