Too Much YouTube-Not Good

In fact, just about every K of C Free Throw Competition known to appear on YouTube, basically have one thing in common & that is lower than average #s. Why is that? It is because there are so many competitions on the one service, which tend to only draw from a particular geographical area(like Nova Scotia in Canada or Hoboken, New Jersey).
It was only in 2011, when this International Competition appeared on a service other than YouTube. DailyMotion.com carried coverage for the 1st Time in 2011, as did blip.tv & Vimeo.com & all drew very nice #s. Even a service in Ireland called iVideo.ie carried coverage, imported from YouTube.com.
Hence the coverage is no longer a mere exhibition on the World's Most Popular Service. There are viewers who would eschew YouTube at the drop of a hat. If DailyMotion was any indication, viewers were only too glad to view this North American Novelty, on a far less cluttered service. DailyMotion Coverage was seen on the websites of the RTL Group in Belgium, France & Netherlands. DailyMotion Coverage was also seen on a site in Albania. Europeans made up for the lack of American Viewers, in the Queens County 2011 Final, from Astoria in Queens, NY. In the Queens NY District Competition, seen over RTL.be site, DailyMotion was the service carrying coverage, not YouTube. Stats also showed that DailyMotion outdrew YouTube by over 2/1.
Viddler is an incredibly easy & speedy upload but people were loathe to watch it.
Vimeo proved to be a great coverage site for the Long Island Championship Final along with Dailymotion. #s were great on both sites. Both sites are rather uncluttered.
Unless a child can sing some pop song, forget YouTube. My production group found that blip.tv is also a great site for K of C Free Throw Coverage as it is show oriented & uncluttered. You don't need YouTube for good #s. The viewers are there. Many just don't like viewing coverage on a cluttered site.
