After trying to free service Vidmetrix, I looked around for another service that wouldn’t fail when uploading videos to multiple sites.  I came across HeySpread.

HeySpread allows you to upload a video and choose from a list of sites you want to send the video to.  I paid $50 for 1,000 credits and each upload costs one credit per video site.  On my $50 I could upload happily for quite some time.

So I tried it out and successfully uploaded several videos to YouTube, Daily Motion, Metacafe, and Yahoo (there are more sites available, those are just the ones I chose).  The upload and distribution was successful and I was very pleased overall with that part.

Vidmetrix is a video distribution site where you can upload a video under 100 MB and have it sent automatically to your accounts on a list of major video sharing networks.  You are also supposed to be able to track videos uploaded to a number of other networks.  And it’s free.

Needless to say, I had high hopes for Vidmetrix, even though the site didn’t seem to have  much information.  I signed up for an account and inserted links for the four videos one of my companies had on YouTube.  The next day I was able to see some pretty good statistics on views for all four videos.  I liked that part.
