DULLES, Va. & PENSACOLA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Grab Networks today announced the launch of a new video serving platform in partnership with TinBu, a leading supplier of interactive content used on over 4,000 web sites globally.
TinBu is integrating a video thumbnail strip that will appear on the top of various content channels provided to third party web publishers. This thumbnail strip automatically displays new video thumbnails and video clips from leading media outlets around the world, allowing viewers to watch video clips that appeal to them. When a consumer activates a video clip an advertisement accompanies the video allowing the publisher to generate additional revenue from their site traffic.
“We are excited to add this new video clip feature to our content platform,” said John Brier, TinBu's CEO. “Adding dynamic relevant video clips to our content channels allows our publishing partners to benefit through additional revenue generation and the audiences who visit our publishing partners benefit through access to topical, relevant and engaging video content,” added Brier.
Examples of TinBu content channels featuring the integrated Grab Network video clips are available at TinBu’s web site in a variety of categories: Box Office, Celebrity Entertainment, Horoscopes, Sports Scores, Finance, and others.
“Integrating Grab Network’s extensive library into TinBu’s content channels furthers our ability to engage users and amplifies our ability to monetize online video,” said Alvin Bowles of Grab Networks. “This partnership stands as another testimony to the value of web media and the role content networks are playing in defining online experiences.”
TinBu currently features the integrated video experience on ten of their content channels, with plans to roll out a full, stand-alone video content channel in the near future. Current publishers who utilize TinBu content channels may activate video content and monitor usage with automated audits that report on videos served, revenue generated, and other relevant metrics. Publishers interested in learning more about TinBu's new video content offering can contact TinBu by visiting their web site.
