Make Money from your own Clip Share, You Tube Clone Site
If you have studied the success of Youtube, Metacafe, and others enviously there is no reasons why you can’t create your own video sharing website. You should eventually be able to make some money in return from advertising depending on how well your promote your site. Here are key steps to take to get your video site off the ground
1. Firstly you’ll have to decide whether to offer a mainstream video sharing site like YouTube. Starting off small, I’d suggest going after a small niche, in order that you can rank well for that niche in the search engines. A niche might be sports, funny video’s or howto’s, such as cooking or computer maintenance.
2. You’ll need a good snappy domain name. Head over to one of the big registrars and see whats available. There are different approaches to choosing a domain. One way would be to include the keywords from your niche, such as “cooking videos.” Another is to pick a snappy, zany name that help the site go viral.
3. Obviously you will need a web host for your video site. The cheapest option would be to go for shared hosting. So you may need a more specialist video provider. Once your site gets established you will need more resources, perhaps a dedicated server. A virtual private server is a good compromise.
4. Normal web hosting might need the requirements for video sharing so check out web hosts, and Google for “ffmpeg hosting.” FFMpeg is a utility that powers a lot of video sharing sites as it will encode video in varying formats to flash video player format (.flv)
5. You visitors will want to upload their video’s. These will be in different formats. If you have used YouTube you will know that they encode your uploaded video’s into a flash format (.flv files). This requires specialist modules to be installed in your hosting account or dedicated server. These are ffmeg, ffmpeg-php, libogg
