Best Video Sharing Sites

Author: Kelly Liyakasa

Say you want to be a rockstar, actor or simply well-known for some strange talent you’ve acquired over the years. Where to go about getting your foot in the door? The Internet has simplified your dreams of stardom through video sharing services and we must admit, these sites sure beat knocking on Sony and MTV’s glass doors with your resume in tow.

Video sharing services like YouTube have crept onto the Web in recent years and are still making names for their video-hosting platforms. 6StarReviews.com reports that YouTube has even infiltrated the world of politics, as evidenced in their role in the 2008 Presidential Debates. YouTube’s ‘Face the Candidates’ feature allows voters and candidates to post their views in videos and to sound off on important issues.

But, video sharing services aren’t stopping at making headlines and revolutionizing election processes. They even go beyond giving the Average Joe or Jane their two minutes of fame. 6StarReviews.com cites Metacafe as a resource on video production, a great place to share your personal videos and even tags it as a place to make money! Metacafe’s ‘Producer Rewards’ feature allows amateur and slightly more advanced filmmakers and directors to make some cash when their video receives 20,000 hits.

Some video sharing services like Phanfare take a more domestic approach to their site feel, offering you family-friendly features such as audio and video slideshows to share with friends and other relatives. Who says every video sharing site has to highlight the Obama Girl or Internet stars akin to her? Phanfare does charge for their video sharing service, but most of their competitors do not. If you are willing to put up with a few advertisements, you will find endless fun and possible recognition on the best video sharing sites.
