Why Youtube And Not Metacafe?

Youtube is definetely the biggest videos website ever, but, something a lot of people do not know is that it was not the first one, there were several other video-sharing websites on the internet a lot earlier than youtube.

Metacafe for example, had the plan to pay it’s users for their video views, and they had a real plan, that would certainly work. Now YouTube is testing something that will do the same. Well, metacafe was placed online some years before youtube, and youtube growed a lot more.

That is something that always made me think, youtube was not a new idea, the new idea was to make another video-sharing website that would turn out to be a big one (as it did), one of the only possible reasons I can figure for that is the advetisement they used, this has prooved to true on other websites, while metacafe was slowly advertised worlwide, youtube was being advertised to the USA only, of course it became a worlwide trend, but the point is how it started.

A massive advertising to the USA is what made youtube so big, people on the USA are the ones who spend more time and more money online, that is a fact, and that is why youtube worked. Well, that makes me think, as this thing did not happen only to youtube, and well, I’ll keep on thinking until I get my own multi-billionaire idea
