Visible Measures used its True Reach methodology and patented video platform to analyse over 8.1 billion video views across the web during 2013. True Reach is the only accredited paid and earned video metric, combining the total viewership of videos related to a campaign throughout the online landscape. True Reach includes the original videos uploaded by the brand and the copies and derivative content uploaded by audiences. Unlike shares, which only show the number of clicks on “share” buttons and not actual performance, True Reach shows the complete performance of a video campaign online.
Visible Measures has tracked over 3 trillion video views, 500 million videos, 16,000 video campaigns since 2005, and sees over 380 million people cross its platform every month.
