NEW YORK, Aug. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- WeShow, the human-powered guide to online videos, is making it easier for bloggers and website owners to offer a high quality and ever-changing collection of videos tailored to the specific interests of their audiences. Officially launching today, WeShow onSite combines the dynamic "push" capability of online widgets with editorially selected videos available on the WeShow portal to enhance the Web experiences of blog and website visitors.
Available free of charge on http://www.weshow.com/us/widget.action to any blogger or website owner, WeShow onSite is customizable to provide dynamically updated, high quality entertainment from any of WeShow's 200 channels to meet the viewing preferences of any audience. Once embedded on a Web page, WeShow onSite displays thumbnail images of the ten most recent videos featured on a selected channel. By clicking on the thumbnail, WeShow onSite plays the full video directly on the site hosting the widget.
"Maintaining fresh content on blogs and websites is hugely important to attracting and keeping the attention of any online audience today," said Marcos Wettreich, CEO and co-founder of WeShow. "With the introduction of WeShow onSite, we have simplified the process of sharing tailored video content on the Web with minimal effort to bloggers and site owners. In just a few simple clicks, anyone can display automatically updated videos on their site in a visually engaging way."
In addition to choosing the subject(s) of the video selection, bloggers and site owners can further customize WeShow onSite content, displaying any personal list of video favorites. To display a chosen video feed, onSite users can select from different visual formats -- such as a vertical or horizontal strip -- as well as various colors to best fit their page designs and engage viewers. All of these elements provide an enhanced visual aspect for website owners while offering relevant video clips to readers.
