There are many video shearing site in the internet but I like best you tube. What do you think?
YouTube was always in the first place, and i think it’s will continue for a long time.
The traffic from youtube is undeniably superior, but the small video sharing sites have their own following too. Also, smaller video sharing sites are not as strict as youtube when it comes to taking down videos
Nice list and I have used most of them but the only one I think is actually worth spending a lot of time on in my opinion is Youtube the traffic is ridiculous.
Youtube is actually the second biggest search engine in the World even though it is a video sharing site it has more search traffic than Yahoo, and Bing combined.
The other ones are just good for a backlink in my opinion.
My best choice is you tube, But in web there’s a lot to use.
for me youtube and dailymotion are the best. they have more number of features when compared to others.
Yes i am agree with Shenoy. But last 3 are new for me :)
Video sharing has became one of the most popular tools on the internet people use. specially youtube, its great if you want your talent to be known to the world uploading your videos, reading tutorials its great for students to learn new stuff..
You tube is the best ever for online video. But my favorite one is Channel [V] TV Shows. I enjoy my [V] Music on channel V.
