Creative Interaction
Making your site interactive for the visitors can be the best thing to boost the productivity of a site. Visitors to a web site expect to find the information they are looking for within a few clicks of their mouse. Now all web masters know that that is a far cry from the practical. The visitors have arrived at your site because they have entered a search criterion in a search engine and so the product they are looking for has to be somewhere in your site if the site turned up among the search results. The site visitor will just have to look around a bit. Unfortunately this 'looking around is something that no visitor wants to do. SO they will have to be coaxed into dong it.
It has been proven that if a visitor stays with the site for four to five minutes they will get what ever it is they are looking for. So the site has to be attractive enough or have some reason to make the visitor stay and browse around a little. This can be achieved by incorporating streaming video on your site. This is not a difficult task and, unlike the past when streaming video was a skill few could master, today there is a lot of streaming video software you could use to make your own animations and advertisements to put on your site.
With streaming video software you can make your own streaming animations or use the software to host the streaming video on your site. If the streaming video is not too long and does not require a lot of bandwidth you could incorporate it as a part of the web site on the web hosting server However, if the streaming video is long then you will have to be hosted on a streaming video server that uses specialized streaming video software. This specialized streaming video software can be used for video broadcasts across the web and for business online live conferences as well.
Streaming video software is required to place advertisements on the web as well. Streaming video software will kick in when a link to the streaming video is clicked. These streaming video software are also known as media players. These players can play streaming video in almost any file format available today. However, some streaming video software does require a down load or tow in order to be able to play an unsupported file format. When a link to a streaming video is clicked by someone on the Internet the streaming video server usually transmits the streaming video software, which is the default player for that particular format. If the media player does support the format, nothing like it, the streaming video will just start playing but if the format is not supported the streaming video server will have to transmit the streaming video software, which is usually an Activex control and nothing more. Once an Active control is downloaded it is stored on the system and is not required to be downloaded again.
