    Just make your videos interesting and people will watch them no matter where there at.

    Good choice of videos makes it viral, by offering people a way to spread videos (email to friend, digg etc), people pass to people, who pass to people etcetc and your visitors slowly climbs over the weeks.

    No i'm saying that whether you pick a .com and .tv, it shouldnt matter. but i would stick with a .com because it's "classic" and easier to remember. some of your visitors may not even know there is such thing as a .tv extension and forget the URL of your website if they plan to come back.
    just my 2 cents :)

    that's a very poignant observation!

    on a related note, have you heard about the hype about .tv domains making it big later this year due to special tools being released by a company (if memory serves me correctly) named design media?

    Ok, it's been 3 days since I uploaded some videos but I have not gotten any results yet. No increase in traffic. My search engine traffic is picking up slowly, but I really had my hopes up with the whole video branding thing. I will give the video thing a chance so that the videos have enough time to be seen widely by many people before I abandon the idea.

    I'm guessing the videos that you use for branding plays a big part in it

    It takes 5 minutes to brand a video, it is then there forever. I call that a good investment of time.
