I can tell you from a personal standpoint that the “pre-rolls” are annoying as hell. I have the mlb baseball package and everytime I want to switch from the radio to the tv broadcast, I have to sit through a commercial. It effect my choice(which I paid to have) and therefore, hurts the product. I beleive that eventually the “pre-rolls” will be a thing of the past

I think there is a long way to go for online video _Advertising_ to go to catch on as well as something like Adwords and Adsense. The power of those programs is the ability to deliver very relevant advertising, something that would be much more difficult with video. Video doesn’t have the granualarity and the ability to tailor to keywords/ content the way that text advertising gotten to. But never say never.

Video advertising may become more prevalent, and even become seen increasingly in the community websites, but I anticipate a bit of resistance on the part of the consumer to accept this as a norm, in the near future. For example, I would imagine that community sites such as MySpace may want to try to run an advertisement before a posted video is displayed. This will probably alienate alot of community members who will eventually go to the next big community site that doesn’t have such a program.

The internet is great, but too much commercialization is going to be to its downfall – there has to be a balance.

What is your recommendation to pursuing this advertising medium? With my current marketing budget, I don't think I could afford to use this medium until it proves a high ROI compared to targeting AdWords and such. I know YouTube is free, but to produce quality videos that could be targeted to the right market, this could take some time. Tan Unique Wedding Favors

You are annoyed at first but after a while you get used to it.
And when you really want to see the content of the site you really don’t care about the pre-roll.

as long as the pre-roll are interesting i don’t think people will be annoyed by it.

Hi Brad,

Wow! Lots of interest on this subject.

I’ve run a very active blog on Internet Video Advertising for a year now (our first anniversary was December 15.)

Many of the posters are extremely well informed and we’ve already got over fifty articles up on various aspects of Internet video.

If Internet video interest you, come on by and see if you like it:

Video will be the next big thing. But what will be the next thing after video? You need to be thinking two or three steps ahead of the game in order to be on the cutting edge of the internet. Website Builder
