This article will focus on Russian free video hosting. This resource is a fairly good analogue of Youtube.
"YouTube" and analogue of "YouTube"
Today, the most popular on the global Internet is the foreign video hosting site Youtube, which belongs to. Every day this site is visited by millions of users from all over the world, who download thousands of copyrighted or third-party videos, and also watch millions of already downloaded video materials. Of course, given the multinational audience of the site, it was translated into many languages, including Russian. However, YouTube is far from the only video hosting service, and Russian companies also have their own prototype.
Analogue of "YouTube"
In the vastness of the RuNet there is a free Russian website that belongs to a large media company. This video hosting site is called Rutube. This network resource allows its visitors to download, that is, store their own videos, as well as view videos uploaded by other users. It should be noted that Rutube is a direct analogue of YouTube, since its functionality and visual design are largely similar to it. The owners of this service enter into various partnership agreements with some content distribution systems. Many of them have already earned their own recognizable name on Russian market. Thus, Rutube occupies a leading position in the Russian market for the distribution of video content.
general description
The YouTube analogue we are considering has many of the same functions as the famous original. For example, users who own the video materials they upload will be able to “monetize” them and thus earn money. This happens by showing various promotional materials from all kinds of partner projects that distribute their products and services. However, few channel owners take advantage of this opportunity, since the audience of this site is not large enough.
Considering in more detail the issue of earning money on this site, you should pay attention to earnings from affiliate programs. If a user who has his own account is also the copyright holder of his content, then he can apply for connection affiliate program. However, in order for your application to be approved, your account must meet a number of minimum requirements.
In addition to the affiliate program, you can enter into cooperation with some advertising exchange and receive income from someone else’s advertising posted on your site, that is, your account.
In addition, it should be noted that the YouTube analogue quite often malfunctions and is characterized by unstable work their servers. This factor has an extremely negative impact on the overall impression of users, who express their angry emotions in reviews, and sometimes even leave this resource.
In general, this is a pretty good project where people can create and maintain their own video blogs and channels, create live broadcasts and engage in other media activities. "Rutub" today is the best free video hosting in Russia.
Everyone who has never even uploaded anything there is already talking about it. Teenagers joke about him in stupid American pie comedies; after filming a transformer, the young guy says that he should definitely send it “exactly” to YouTube. But did you know that YouTube is one of the... worst decisions? As the WebWare blog says: “I wish online video looked less Webby,” i.e. it looked like a real video, like in a DVD player, or at least like the notorious DVD-Rip.
Another problem for a video producer is the size of the video. As a rule, video files are large in size, and video hosting sites limit you to the size of the video available online. It also turns out that you spoil your video even before uploading it to the web, compressing it lengthwise and crosswise. But everything suffers from this.
Webware magazine conducted an interesting video test on the care of your material, as well as generosity in the distribution of disk space and ease of downloading videos. The comparison was made with the market standard - Google YouTube video hosting.
The initial data is as follows: a VGA video of less than 2 minutes duration was taken with a frame rate of 30 frames per second. The video was filmed Canon camera and recorded in a file of about 200 MB in AVI format.
Below are the test results:
Real download speed
Testing was carried out on 8Mbit Comcast cable with no active downloads. The results are divided into groups slow, medium And fast.
Slow
Vimeo(1 hour 19 minutes). The video didn't load very quickly. But a beautiful and convenient downloader will sensitively show the download progress.
Veoh(1 hour 21 minutes). This is the lowest result in the test. Put it on appload and go for a walk - it's useful;)
Medium
YouTube(42 minutes). A good average result, which is compensated by the fact that several videos can be uploaded to YouTube at once.
Fast
Viddler(29 minutes). This is the best result in testing.
Facebook(36 minutes). The video was quickly absorbed, and the convenient uploader constantly showed how much time was left.
Output video quality
A picture will be more valuable than many words. Below are screenshots from video services. Be sure to check them out at full size by clicking on the picture.
