Facebook завершает год интересными новостями на тему видео.

❗️Во-первых, компания рассказала про развитие своего нового видеосервиса Watch. В 2018 году Watch заработал во всех странах мира: там можно посмотреть шоу, сериалы, новостные репортажи. Watch существует в виде отдельного приложения и, что важно, встроен в интерфейс самой Facebook. Цифры на первый взгляд внушительные, но дьявол в деталях.

✅ 400 млн пользователей – ежемесячная аудитория Watch (MAU). Смотрите следующий пост, чтобы понять, почему это лукавая цифра. 😜
✅  75 млн – ежедневная аудитория Watch (DAU). Пока это всего 5% всей ежедневной аудитории FB.
✅  20 минут в день пользователь FB проводит в Watch (time spent).

FB подчеркивает, что Watch – это не просто видеосервис, там вокруг создателей контента формируется комьюнити. В Watch авторы и медиа могут зарабатывать, вставляя в свои ролики рекламные вставки. Монетизация доступна уже в 40 странах, а в ближайшее время заработает везде.
