It is true that most of us (if not all) will agree that videos convey messages better than still pictures. The audio and video factor is very important to get certain messages across to our chosen audience. The Internet, considered as a busy information highway is the fastest means of exchanging data. Now, how can we share videos through the net? The answer’s simple: Video Hosting.

Choosing the video hosting provider
The first step will be considering your hosting requirements. If you are a beginner, a site which offers a decent amount of disk space is all you need. Usually these sites offer their services for free. Finished videos can be kept private, shared among friends who also have accounts in the site or made public. However, it gets more complicated if the web hosting service will be used for business purposes. Here, you will be shelling out a certain amount of money depending on which hosting site you want to use.

Web hosting streaming
An example for the so-called business purpose is video streaming. It boasts of near broadcast-quality video available in real time to homes, businesses as well as PDAs worldwide. Holding meetings, watching the news, listening to the radio (the list goes on) will be a totally different experience. No downloading of files will be done therefore; no space will be taken up on your computer’s hard drive, making the end result a smooth format that allows interactive media: video and audio that can now be experienced as they are happening.

Music video hosting
This service is mostly used for entertainment and or personal purposes (self expression and the like). Music videos are added to websites for the layout to look more appealing.

There is a wide range of sites that cater to the video aficionado’s every need. Exploring as a beginner won’t hurt. You can choose among their different features, whatever is convenient to work with. After all, a lot of new, novice-friendly web video hosting sites are coming out.
