The Real Estate Channel of Orlando has recently launched a video profile segment for realtors and builders to create 30-second ad campaigns to accompany their listings. The channel is already a popular on-demand television station that allows viewers to watch local listings in Orlando and the surrounding area. With today’s advancing technologies and higher user interactivity, adding a video component to listings is becoming a premium service for many networks. Making these available online allows realtors and builders with smaller budgets to provide quality listings on a regular basis, and each video also links directly to the advertiser’s Web site. All video content will also be available on handheld wireless devices and some mobile phones.
