More insight into claimed content on YouTube
September 28, 2009
(Cross-posted from the
YouTube Biz Blog
)
We announced last week that we now have
over 1,000 partners
using our content identification and management tools to control how and where their videos are distributed on YouTube. Every major U.S. network broadcaster, movie studio and music label is using
Content ID
to identify user-uploaded versions of their videos, and decide whether they to want block, track or make money from them. As Content ID is proving to be an effective way for media companies
to control, promote and monetize
their content
on our site, we're always thinking about how we can make these tools even more valuable for content owners of all kinds.
Today, we're excited to integrate Content ID with
YouTube Insight
. Previously, when you claimed a video with Content ID, we were only able to show you basic information (like view counts and tags) associated with the video you claimed. But now, all the statistics and data we share directly with uploaders in YouTube Insight is available to Content ID partners too, making our content management tools more useful than ever — especially for partners whose claimed user videos generate lots of views for them. For example, using Insight with claimed content, Sony Music learned that the
JK Wedding Entrance Dance
video is currently the music label's 8th most popular video on YouTube.
In addition to rankings, you can also learn about demographics, discovery sources and other metrics for videos that you've claimed, and then compare them to your own uploads. Do the audience demographics of a claimed video differ from those of the official version? What websites or search terms drive the most traffic to user uploaded versions of your content? We think integrating Content ID and Insight can help answer questions like these and will be very helpful as you think about distributing, marketing and making money from your content online.
If you're a Content ID partner, you can find this new information in the Reporting section of your CMS (Content Management System) account.
