Internet Marketing Companies & Twitter's Purchase Of Snappytv

By Bob Oliver


According to an article on Mashable, Twitter announced that it had purchased SnappyTV. For those who do not know, SnappyTV is a service that allows users to not only share video content but edit it in certain ways. With these points in mind, it's clear that it can be a very viable program in the right hands. The fact that Twitter was able to attain it says quite a bit, according to many Internet marketing companies, and I think one of the biggest points of note is that the company has not been around for that long.

SnappyTV was founded in 2010, which makes it a relatively young company in context of the Internet. In any event, the main reason why Twitter decided to purchase SnappyTV, as the article referenced, is because of the possibility of it boosting its Amplify program. Twitter Amplify, by definition, is viewed as a program that is able to help advertisers reach viewers, beyond TV, onto the social network in question. For Internet marketing companies across the board, Twitter Amplify is a platform to focus on.

The focus on video by Twitter is understandable enough. After all, how many times have you been online and, just out of instinct, you find yourself going to YouTube in order to kill some time? This speaks volumes about the engagement that video content boasts and it is clear that Twitter recognizes this as well. With that said, this acquisition stands the chance of being one of the most profitable, not just for people who work in marketing but clients as well.

For example, firms along the lines of fishbat have their own video production branches, which are able to appeal to various brands. With this in mind, would it be possible for Internet marketing companies to make use out of Twitter Amplify now that it is backed by SnappyTV? It's not out of the question, seeing as how Twitter has made it a point to make Amplify easy for producers and companies across the board to implement. Only time will tell if the results will be up to snuff.

Fortunately, I see a tremendous amount of potential from Twitter's acquisition of SnappyTV. Video content, as stated earlier, is popular and the fact that so many people are landing jobs in this field means that it is only going to get bigger going forward. Does Twitter have the potential to expand in order to become more of a social TV service in time? If the popular social network is willing to put forth the effort, successful results may be found.
