Some Enlightening Internet Video Statistics: YouTube

One of my favorite blogs to read is Startup-Review, a case studies blog profiling Web 2.0 companies like MySpace, Facebook, and YouTube and highlight how they got to their elite status.

In their most recent case study, they profile YouTube … and give some statistics on YouTube’s place in the Internet video market … pretty interesting, so I thought I’d share:

  • Fastest growing website in Internet history
  • On average 100 million videos streamed per day
  • 65,000 new video clips are uploaded every day
  • More than 13 million unique visitors per month. An average user spends 30 minutes on YouTube and most uploaders are repeat visitors themselves.
  • 58% of Internet videos are watched on YouTube
  • 20% to 30% of traffic volume is from the US
  • Wide range of user demographics, however the largest segment of users is the 18 to 35 year-olds.
  • 30% to 40% of the content is copyrighted. There is a clear correlation between eyeballs and copyrighted content.

    Funny that you should post this today. I have just discovered why we shouldn’t use YouTube.

    If you are wanting to put up a video for your blog - YouTube is not the answer. The quality is terrible, and I have blogged of my discovery of a new video website that I’ll be using instead.
