sevenload.com is launching two new video platforms for Russia and Poland today. The localized national portals give holders of premium content in particular access to relevant target audiences in the Eastern European web TV market.
“We are delighted with the successful launch of the new national portals. The clear focus on Eastern Europe represents another step in our international expansion,” said Jeff Coe, Director International at sevenload, explaining the expansion of the social media network. “With both platforms, sevenload provides access to the Eastern European web TV market. With our support, our content and advertising partners reach new target groups and distribute their content to an even larger audience.”
Viewers in the international sevenload community can find countless videos and images in their own language. Specialist channels and themed programs compete for viewers with local content. Every viewer has numerous opportunities to interact with all videos on the sevenload channels and is actively involved in the channels’ programming. In current discussion forums, viewers exchange views directly about the programs, see the most-watched videos in charts, create their own video schedules with playlists, or apply for their own web TV program on the sevenload channels at http://www.sevenload.ru or http://www.sevenload.pl .
“Young talents and as-yet unknown artists from Eastern Europe in particular can now become famous with their own web TV show on the sevenload channels. sevenload promotes talent, provides artists with their own program slots for their shows, and supports them on their path to becoming internet stars in the global community,” Coe said of the benefits for users of the new national portals.
With a total of six national portals, sevenload offers its viewers Europe’s leading independent web TV experience. sevenload’s international success story began in April 2006 as Germany’s first image and video platform. The continuous development of its technology and the expansion of sevenload’s range of content quickly made the social media network Europe’s leading destination for amateur recordings, professional photography, and film productions. More than 300 content partners have already secured permanent broadcasting slots with high-quality video entertainment on the 21 channels of sevenload.com. They include Hubert Burda Media, BMW, EM.SPORT MEDIA AG, Deutsche Welle, ADAC, Endemol, and other international content partners.
