Hulu Search is Now in Embeds
June 5, 2008
Hulu has added a search function to embeds now.That means people that post embeds on other sites they can also search the site. Also after you finish watching something you can search rigth away without having to go to the site directly.
I think that this is very smart. People are prety lazy. So putting a search on an embed is a way to get traffic and more returning visitors. It also gives a more likely chance for videos to be watched. I use Hulu once in a while for , you guessed it Family Guy. They offer shows from Fox and NBC. Hulu still has a long way to go. There are still people that have never heard of it.
Youtube and Veoh show videos that are related to the video that has just been played, but does not have search function yet. For sites that have embeds , giving it more features is way to get in more visitors.
