Publishers can now access Dailymotion’s cutting-edge streaming technology with far reaching benefits.
Dailymotion’s white-label solution and customizable playlists enable publishers to engage better with their audiences, unlocking new ways to monetize their content (via Dailymotion’s 100% proprietary ad exchange). The comprehensive solution also extends easy management of data, wherein publishers gain insights into performance with Dailymotion’s advanced analytic.
