Who provides the videos?   Considerations when choosing a video production service include:  Cost – creating video content for websites can be costly when you consider manual production hours and the maintenance required. Ability to scale – videos must be applied to all products and categories in the catalogue to be effective. Easily updated – video content must reflect the dynamic nature of product catalogues. Quality of video – customers will respond to videos that are interactive, branded and engaging. Three, often complementary, options for video production are: Manual production Syndication of manufacturer videos Automatic video generation Confidential 7
Video delivery and management Our research indicates that the vast majority of videos are delivered from a content delivery network (CDN) and not hosted onsite.   Akamai dominates the top 50 retailer list by a large margin, and we also see videos being served from Amazon’s cloud services (Either S3 or CloudFront), LimeLight and CDNetworks Confidential 8
Youtube presence  YouTube has been the number two search engine since 2008 and is the fourth overall web property.  There are two main objectives for online retailers to promote their videos on YouTube:  	1. Brand promotion 	2. Increase qualified traffic  Confidential 9 Top 10 online retailers by number of Views on their Youtube channel Top 10 online retailers by number of videos uploaded to their youtube channels
Conclusion  The research presented here is the first of its kind trying to explore different impacts of online video on the e-commerce industry.  What we have included:  What retailers may hope to achieve by deploying videos  What they currently achieve  How they achieve goals and next steps for success  Video e-commerce has moved from experimental to the scaling phase, however:  There is a relatively small portion of top retailers who actually use video and exploit its potential to the maximum extent. This initial, limited adoption by retailers demonstrates the early stage of the market.   Companies like Overstock.com and Nike have defined a clear and successful video strategy and are setting the stage for full industry adoption.  Confidential 10
