Many of these sites also offer
various payment plans where you and the web site share the payments
received by Internet visitors who access and watch your movies.
If you are creating more personal
types of videos that only your family and friends would really want to
watch, you then may want to consider some of the sites listed below.
Many of them offer ways of
protecting the videos so that only those with the proper url and/or
passcode can access them.
Yet another option is more of a
guerilla approach where you take advantage of the various free web
site hosting opportunities and then link them together to create a
virtual video web site, with bits and pieces of your content scattered
across a series of web sites, all hot linked together. Be warned
though, that doing this often is against the rules and may result in
your web site being dismantled rather suddenly.
If you
got lots of video and need an online place to store it, check out StreamLoad. Great service at a
great price...
