Video units now available in Australia and Japan
Thursday, June 05, 2008
UPDATE: The video units feature
has been retired
-- however, you may wish to review the other
revenue opportunities
available for video content owners.
Following the success of
video units
in a number of
international locations
, we're excited to announce the launch of video units for English-language websites in Australia. In addition, video units are now available to publishers who are located in Japan or who have Japanese-language websites. If you're not already familiar, video units are embedded, customizable video players which both enrich sites with relevant video content and enable publishers to earn extra revenue. Relevant and non-intrusive companion and text ads accompany the video content.
With this new launch, you can show videos from our YouTube content partners on your site. You can choose those videos by category, choose individual YouTube partners, or have video units automatically target your site with relevant video. You can also
choose the individual videos
to be displayed in your video units. Finally, if you have video content of your own, you may even be able to
sign up
as a YouTube partner to have your content distributed to other AdSense publishers' video units.
To set up video units on your site,
log in
to your AdSense account and visit your
AdSense Setup
tab; if you have a site in one of our
supported countries and languages
, you'll see the option to set up video units. For more information about video units, please feel free to re-visit our original
launch post
and our discussion of some of your most
frequently asked questions
. In addition, you might find the information in our
Help Center
useful. Finally, we'd like to note that we're working on expanding video units to additional countries, but we're not able to provide a timeline for when that may occur.
