Vidlisting.com Real Estate Video & Virtual Tour Partner Network
What Is the Vidlisting.com Partner Network?
Vidlisting.com recognizes that we are not the only content producers making quality rich media content for users. A surprising number of otherwise competing property video and virtual tour providers have asked about how they could make their content available on our system.
Some high points of our partner program include the following:
- Partner content remains where it is; no uploading to our system is required for partners as long as content is on an internet accessible server
- All partner content retains the original branding in and around the rich media
- Partner content can be any online rich media format (videos or virtual tours) that does not require visitors to install any special plugin.
- Partner content will be searchable via a partner interface and customers can manage it within their own personal video catalog. They can even make widgets or send it to friends just like any vidlisting video in their catalog
- Partners can opt to syndicate video based content via our infrastructure
Is This Different From A Channel?
The Partner infrastructure that Vidlisting.com has built is a far more effective way to manage rich media content of any type than a standard channel that you’ll find at out competitors’ sites. A typical channel on a video upload site is just a parking space for your video content in case you choose not to cut and paste the video elsewhere.
The chances of a visitor finding your video on any given video provider’s channel are about the same (if not worse) than finding it cut and pasted somewhere else. The number of video views is a great indicator that prospective buyers simply aren’t perusing the channels on video upload sites.
What’s Different With This Approach?
Our partner infrastructure can process content wherever it might be found. This processing includes wrapping geolocation data around your content worldwide. There is no need to upload using our upload system and you dont even need to provide a feed if you dont wish to. Partner content will be made available to viewers both on vidlisting and off vidlisting as follows:
- Personal Media Catalog: Users of the Vidlisting.com Personal Media Catalog can specify content preferences. As a Vidlisting.com content partner, content that matches these preferences will be made available for viewing and further sharing with friends, etc. by the Personal Media Catalog user.
- Associated Media Content Bar: Every content item in our system is geolocated. When a customer chooses to accept partner content, geolocated partner content closest to the video being played will be made instantly available to them
- Vidlisting Search Results: When an visitor searches for real estate video content within our system, partner content will also be displayed when they match the visitor’s search criteria.
- Syndication To Real Estate Portals: Content producers can opt to have property videos that meet a simple set of criteria to be syndicated via our pre-negotiated agreements with real estate listing portals worldwide.
Note that partner content will be limited to property videos and real estate video interviews for the foreseeable future. Partners will receive sizable discounts on real estate services such as professional narration, translated video narratives, and transcript generation that they can then resell to their customers.
How To Sign Up As A Content Partner
There will be three types of partner memberships: per video view, a monthly limited plan, and an annual site license. The fees are extremely modest and can be via premium pricing options to your customers. The benefits are substantial.
The participation costs for partners vary by plan, volume and volume:
- Starter plan: A per video fee is assessed based literally on a few pennies per view….no views mean no costs to you.
- Monthly plan: The limited monthly plan is ideal for smaller content producers that want a fixed price to budget with. This plan allows up to 50 videos per month for $75 each month. There is no per-view fee. However, videos selected for syndication with real estate portals will be assessed an additional small surcharge.
- Annual Site License: The annual site license is an unlimited plan for larger content producers. This plan features reduced monthly costs based on volume. A site licese covers a specific domain for a one year period.
