Low post count shilling doesn't count, I need convincing.
This is not to attack any of you, but to express the hurdle you must realistically overcome to get click throughs.

Working off of a social video network is a great way to meet other like minded people. It also gets you exposure and helps build credibility. Excuse the Kirkegaardian quote here, but sometimes you need to take a leap of faith.
The big reason why I host my videos on another site is so I spare my server . I also get the added advantage of being able to use another site's network, this does actually help out in the long run as it brings in more viewers. If the quality of the video stinks, then people don't watch it, but if you have something of decent or high quality, the video does well. Most of my videos are actually posted on several video share and social networking sites for added exposure. This is related to viral marketing.
It is a little scary getting in front of the camera and I think that's where a lot of people end up shying away.
