After months of experiments and feedback from users and brands, Twitter has announced a beta test of Promoted Video on Twitter!Twitter Promoted Video builds upon the Twitter Amplify program, and brings a new set of video tools to high-quality online video content producers. By using Promoted Video, it’s easy for businesses & brands of all sizes to upload and distribute video on Twitter, and to measure the reach and effectiveness of this content.
In the spirit of making campaign setup easier, Twitter also now offer brand advertisers the ability to run ads with a new Cost Per View (CPV) ad buying model. This means you only get charged when a u
