NaturalNews to launch Free Speech video network
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) On the heels of increasing video censorship committed by YouTube against natural health videos, NaturalNews is announcing the upcoming launch of its worldwide, multilingual video network called NaturalNews.TV. The service goes live in late June and is designed to offer a Free Speech platform for videos about health, food and nutrition, GMOs, fitness, healthy kitchen recipes, the environment, medicine and of course the truth about Big Pharma, Big Ag, the cancer industry, factory-farmed meat products and other similar topics.
Unlike YouTube, NaturalNews.TV will not censor videos that expose the truth about Monsanto or other powerful corporations. In fact, the whole purpose of NaturalNews.TV is to give offer a platform for health freedom and Free Speech that exposes the corruption of Big Business and Big Government while empowering the People with information they can really use to enhance and protect their health and their livelihoods.
Some features of the upcoming NaturalNews.TV video site include:
• All videos will be FREE to view.
• Videos can be embedded in your web pages.
• Each video play page recommends related videos.
• Users can upload an unlimited number of videos.
• Users can reserve their own username "channel" pages once the site launches.
• Support for user comments and video ratings.
• Multi-lingual support that will categorize videos by language: English, Mandarin, Espa�ol, etc.
The network is being engineered to host tens of millions of video views each month, and it is hosted and mirrored through over 35 video servers located in major cities around the world. If one server goes down, the other servers pick up the load and keep serving the videos, so outages will be extremely rare.
NaturalNews.TV will, however, respect copyrights to our best ability. So it will not be a place to upload video content owned by the TV networks or film companies, for example. It is designed to host original video content created by YOU!
Watch for announcements about the launch of NaturalNews.TV in late June 2010.
Get your videos ready!
Do you have videos that you'd like the world to see? Get 'em ready: NaturalNews.TV will be launching in late June, and we'll be accepting video uploads from users all around the world.
When you upload a video, you have the opportunity to add a title, description and keyword tags. You can reserve your own channel name, too, such as NaturalNews.TV/MyChannel.
The highest-rated videos will be featured on NaturalNews.com web pages, where the keyword tags will help decide which videos get shown on which article pages.
Our mission is to help your videos get seen by the world. Because, after all, YouTube doesn't want the world to see them. But we do.
If you're tired of having your videos censored by YouTube and you want to take part in the global launch of a new video platform dedicated to truth and education rather than sex and violence, then get your videos ready for the launch of NaturalNews.TV.
We'll be announcing the pre-launch here on NaturalNews.com. If you want to grab your preferred username, watch NaturalNews.com for the pre-launch announcements throughout the month of June.
We will have one day in June specifically for username reservations where you can request your own username such as /YourName or /YourTopic, for example.
How it's funded
NaturalNews.TV will be funded by short pre-roll advertising (5 seconds) that appears before each video. This extremely short pre-roll format allows viewers to get right to the video without needing to wait 15 or 30 seconds (as is typical) for a pre-roll video ad to play.
Additionally, a one-line clickable text ad will be placed under the video play window. This combination of 5 seconds of pre-roll and a one-line text ad gives supporting sponsors an opportunity to reach video viewers without interfering with the video viewing experience.
Sponsorship opportunities are available now for June and July. If you are interested in sponsoring NaturalNews.TV, contact our ad department using the email address and phone number listed here: http://www.naturalnews.com/AdvertisingInform...
