Introducing video units
Tuesday, October 09, 2007
UPDATE: The video units feature
has been retired
-- however, you may wish to review the other
revenue opportunities
available for video content owners.
AdSense isn't just for ads anymore; it's also a place to get video content for your site -- and earn extra revenue at the same time.
We're excited about the launch of video units -- a new way to enrich your site with quality, relevant video content in an embedded, customizable player. Simply embed a snippet of code and have relevant YouTube partner content streamed to your site. You can choose categories of video to target to your site, select content from individual YouTube partners, or have video automatically targeted to your site content. Companion and text overlay ads are relevant and non-intrusive. To further blend the YouTube player into your site, you can also customize the color scheme and layout as well as choose from three different player sizes.
If you're looking to build "stickiness" with your visitors, show quality YouTube partner video on your site, and earn extra revenue along the way, and want to know more, then review our
common questions about video units
.
If you're ready to get started now,
sign in to your AdSense account
and head for the
AdSense Setup
tab. Click the
video units
link and you'll be on your way to setting up your first video unit.
See you later! We've got some videos to watch.
Update:
Video units will be live in AdSense accounts later today (10/9). Currently this feature is open only to publishers located in the United States with English-language websites.
