How To Make Your Videos Interactive


Klickable.TV is a service, currently in beta, that allows you to take any video and quickly make it interactive. For example, let’s say you have a cooking demonstration video. With Klickable.TV you can create hotspots in that video, say around food ingredients, the pan or around the host. Viewers can then click on those areas of the video and more information will appear, as well as clickable links to product web pages.

While this certainly isn’t the first service to offer video interactivity like this, it is the most affordable…with plans currently starting from free, up to $100 a month.

As I mentioned, the service is still in beta so there are some rough edges here and there, but not enough to turn anyone off from actually trying the service. In fact, celebrity cooking host Rachael Ray uses Klickable.TV for some of her own videos (click here for an example).

If you’d like to test Klickable.TV for yourself it’s simple enough. Just click here, open a free account and you’re on your way.

And finally, I’d like to thank my friend Shama Kabani of MarketingZen.com for bringing this resource to my attention.

I see that several of you have taken advantage of the current 7 day trial offer for $1 at Web Video University. I cannot say enough about this great video training program offered by Dave Kaminski. Everything is taught via easy to understand video based tutorials, and are offered both for MAC and PC users.

Whether you’re a web based business owner looking to drive more sales, a YouTube posting fanatic, a musician wanting to make music videos of your material, whatever… these classes can teach you almost EVERYTHING about creating web videos (from software to use, to cameras, techniques and tricks, lighting, 3D …) To find out more, go to www.creatingwebvideo.com (choose selection one for information on classes).

My Testimony About Web Video University
A few months back I wanted to get into making videos for my web business. I knew ‘nada’ about how or what to do to accomplish this. I stumbled accross Dave’s website and paid for the 4 week course that was available at the time. I do not claim to be anything still other than a video newbie, but if you visit my YouTube channel, you’ll see a few of the videos that I personally have done thus far. Not only were they a blast to make, but I have started to get a few offers from people for me to make videos for them (extra income).

Check out the 7 day offer for $1. If you know web video, wanna know web video, think you wanna know web video – get over there today and start the classes.
