TASK 1: ENCODING THE VIDEO 1) Get a sponsor video or royalty free video. 2) Encode to WMV. Set to request license before playing. 3) Go to a DRM license provider and get a key server. This can be a dedicated server or you can "lease". You can set up your message or HTML page or FLASH page with the license page you get from the DRM license provider. 4) The WMV movie file will then try to request a DRM license everytime someone downloads it and tries to play it. The "license" page that will appear is the page you set up with the DRM license provider above. It can be clickable or it can have instructions. TASK 2: Labeling the files Compile the most common keyword search terms for your file. Relabel your files. Customize the lengths of your videos so they are not all the same length. TASK 3: Distribution This is the tricky part. Anyway, does anyone use this promo method?
I guess this is breaking the Google Terms? I mean if you do not have anything to sell that is. If you have then thats another mather. I mean you can not trick people to come to your website but if you have a video and you want to sell it trough peer systems and have a licens then it should be 100 % ok. If then people come to your website and do not pay that is not your problem
It's probably better for direct sales sites as opposed to PPC ad driven sites. To the guys using this method or are having problems, share your thoughts
If you label it as something it's not... for example call it "X-men 3 DVD-rIp lLoL HDTV" and it's actually a home video of paint drying, people are going to spend a long time downloading it, and then they will be pretty annoyed when they find out. And if, when they play it, an advert appears for your site, then they will have somewhere to vent their frustration, I.E. your site. So just, don't claim your videos are something they aren't.
Since the point of these is to show the DRM license request page, the people who downloaded the file probably won't see the video since they click the license request page.
Yeah, so they spend ages downloading then get nothing? Then your page shows up.. I don't know how well recieved that would be. I personally would take it out on your site.
Dating sites do real well with these so I guess there's not enough people "taking it out" on the site being promoted.
One method I started using a few days ago (had the idea months ago, but only recently started a site that could use it) is to write articles and put them in a PDF format with links to your website. Write out some good articles about your topic, and bam, some traffic.
Yes I do. I am not sure how much traffic I am actually getting from them, it would register as just a type in.
