Video hosts of the Internet

What is Video hosting?

Ok, well I'm sure you already know, but to give this amazing entry a proper starting point for a change...

Video hosting or sharing refers to websites or software where users can distribute their video clips. So basically, a website where users can upload their video clips for others to view. Generally they are free of charge, but require you to open an account so all your clips can be properly indexed together.

Of all the Video hosts, YouTube is by far the biggest and most popular. When mentioning Video clips on the Internet, YouTube will be the website that most people have heard of. They also provide a HTML code which enables you to put the clips onto other Websites you own or Internet Forums you are a member of.

Look, on YouTube, here's a Lego animation I once did...



Er yes, so moving on. Besides YouTube what other hosts are there?

Well there are quite a few actually. Here are some of the main ones you might want to try if you're looking to get your clips watched by even more of the Earth people.

Dailymotion, Flickr, MegaVideo, Metacafe, Myspace, MyVideo, Photobucket, Truveo, Tudou (Chinese), Veoh, Vuze, Yahoo! Video.

Happy uploading!
