blinkx, the world’s largest video search engine, will use its unique technology to remunerate consumers who have embedded video clips into their blogs or webpages.
It will share 50 percent of the revenue generated from the ads with users, and payments will be facilitated through PayPal.
Based on blinkx’s ground-breaking AdHoc platform, the new widget places unobtrusive, highly-relevant text advertisements against embedded video from popular sharing sites such as YouTube, GoogleVideo and DailyMotion.
Just as Google’s AdSense transformed advertising on the Text Web, blinkx’s AdHoc platform will revolutionize video advertising by matching compelling, customized, TV-style ads to audiences on the Video Web.
The AdHoc platform is unique because it was built from the ground up to address rich media, resulting in more effective marketing for advertisers, higher monetization for content owners and distributors, and, most importantly, a useful, non-disruptive experience for users.
