Who are the Internet’s Top Video Producers?
I’ve been recording media for Internet distribution since… ever since I could with one of Sony’s first Mavicas (the FD7, which recorded images on a floppy disk). In fact, one of my Gnomies found and published my first webcam recording (which I’ll never live down). I’ve been streaming live video for well over a year now, and I’ll get to those statistics later in this post.
I first mentioned TubeMogul in this blog when it was nothing more than a project it was interesting, but not really what I needed at the time. As I started to produce a regular array of videos, their “sneezing” service evolved enabling me to distribute a single video to several networks without having to encode / upload / tag / describe / name it more than once. Today, TubeMogul released their first Top 40 list – and with 30,000 other publishers, I’m in good company:
- Next New Networks
- Chris Pirillo
- Howcast
- For Your Imagination
- Tornante
- WatchMojo
- iJustine
- Nalts
- MyDamnChannel
- Ford Models
- CBS Interactive
- HBO
- Rocketboom
- FUNimation Productions
- National Lampoon
- Big Pictures
- Sub Pop Records
- Rhett and Link
- PopCrunch Media
- PBS
- Independent Comedy TV
- Billboard.com
- The Movie Preview Critic
- IPC Media
- Hayden Black / Evil Global Corp
- Century Media Records
- Tango Media
- DailyIdea
- Effinfunny
- Newsbusters
- Katr Pictures
- Young Hollywood
- Warner Bros
- Fox
- Vlaze Media Networks
- Gagfilms
- Click for Lessons
- EMI
- Nike
- Sony Pictures
You read that right: I’m #2 this month, though I don’t know how long I’ll remain in the top 10 (with competition like HBO, PBS, CBS, iJustine, Warner Bros, and Sony Pictures). Understand, too, that these numbers only reflect the videos that were being tracked through TubeMogul – not my independent uploads to either YouTube or my iTunes podcast feed.
In my humble opinion, our live video stats are even more impressive: over 5 million unique live video viewers watched me do my “thing” in 2007 – a total of 2+ million LIVE viewer hours with an average viewing time of 25 minutes per visitor. Imagine what could happen if I worked with a larger media brand for both live and produced videos?
I guess, for me, the idea of being back “on television” is kinda… over.

to politics to a rip-off of the lolcat phenomenon as a video show. Run by former edge-TV execs. Some good stuff, and hey – they’re winning!

What I loved about this list is that it highlights small players that are building the long-tail micro-networks that will drive the video model in the months to come. There is simply not enough dialogue about how the mid-tier publishers can make it — and it is not by letting vertical ad networks rep and whore them. It is about great content and community dialogue. Hats of to Pirillo and NextNew.
