With vast amounts of internet advertising online at present, trying to sell products via said advertising has become increasingly difficult. Mainly due to the fact that most people find internet ads irritating, perhaps because many offer little interaction. However, with video advertising it offers the user something to watch and interact with, rather than simply a static image on the screen.

“One internet based ad agency posted 28 videos that generated 80,000 viewers in one month and subsequently after a couple of months, without any alterations made to those videos, number of audience increased to 3,000,000.”

Video advertising can also be used to increase the publishers SEO:

“Now, advantage of video ads are further used through manipulation of keywords. Keywords containing the term ‘running’ returns web pages containing videos and eliminates inclusion of sites with written articles, blogs. In this way, SEO are pushing pages with video files to high rankings and enhancing the visibility. Links of video files can be easily posted and used as link building online marketing stratergy.”

However, even with video advertising there is still the problem that once a user has click on the video, or has actively searched for the site through search engines, they must still hunt for the product that caught their attention through the advertisers web page, often this puts people of bothering. This can rapidly effect the amounts of money that can be made from online video advertising, particularly if publishers are on a CPA plan. Whereas Coull differs, and potentially revolutionizes video advertising, is in the way that they offer the ability to click on the item in the advertisement that has captured the users attention, and then will be taken to the exact product. Which in turn increases the CPA income that can be made. Therefore the type of innovative interactive video that Coull offers is potentially the future of nt only online video advertising but online advertising in general.
