		<description>I&#039;m sorry to hear your video advertising isn&#039;t doing as well as you expected.  Have you tried advertising on less congested networks like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.adwido.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Adwido&lt;/a&gt;.  It&#039;s nice not having your competitors drown your voice out.</description>

		<description>Michael,



Thanks for your great question.



One of our top goals at blip.tv is to make money for the best original content creators producing shows for the Web.  We have two ways to do that: (1) through a run of site network that anyone can opt into, where payments are based on a CPM and (2) through sponsorships of top shows, which are often done as brand matches and not always based on a CPM.  In both cases we split all advertising revenues with content creators 50/50.



The market for video advertising is admittedly nascent - but we have a number of sponsorship campaigns running on blip.tv right now, including for The Smart Show, which was created by Holiday Inn Express, and Puma (which is sponsoring Pilates on 5th and David Jr.).  I&#039;d be happy to speak with you about this more if you&#039;d like - feel free to reach out to me at dinaATblip.tv anytime to set something up.



Thanks again,



Dina</description>

		<description>Michael, Thanks for your comment.

Please see the updated post with blip&#039;s player. As I am hosting this blog on wordpress.com, not all embeds are possible. Mike touched base with me and explained how I can embed their player - and here wpe go...

c

The video you saw was from YouTube. There is monetization based on overlay ads and sponsorship.

Your questions are very interesting. When looking to production cost - they vary drastically. Some are just a guy in a room. Some of the producers already have the facilities and are just spending their time on producing the show instead of working on external projects.



I am working on a post covering the monetization aspect - does advertises love this new niche. Stay tuned for more on this topic.</description>

		<description>I find it interesting that the example of Bliptv that you used was from a YouTube embed. Does that mean it&#039;s hard to find or hard to embed from Blip?



Also, I see no monetization in the video you showed above. Were are we with that? And how does production costs compare to the current revenue models for independent producers? Is there a break-even traffic number? Are the models moving away from CPM and more to integrated sponsorships on a per episode basis?



Maybe you can do a follow up on these points.</description>
