Features of Live Video Streaming Platform

It often becomes a difficult choice to decide the appropriate live video streaming platform for your business. From personalizing your online store to securing your valued content, here are the most prioritized features you would need to keep in mind while hosting your videos through a live streaming platform.

Best Features that your Live Streaming Platform should Offer

1. Multiple Monetization

This is the most important feature for a live video streaming platform. Professional video platforms have multiple content monetization methods including subscriptions, ad-based and PPV. You can pick the most suitable monetization method based on your business requirements.

Generally, the incentive for the audience to pay for the live streaming content is more than the non-live content. For example, people are willing to pay to access a live stream of sports events, music concerts, etc.

Muvi Live lets you monetize your content through subscriptions, ads, PPV and even using a unique method like donation monetization!

2. Social Sharing

Social media platforms help in increasing the reach of live video content by giving it more exposure as nowadays most people are easily found on social media networks. Therefore, the importance of social sharing your live feed has got a lot of traction over the years. Make sure your live streaming platform is able to share your live stream at multiple social media channels like Twitter, Facebook, Youtube etc.

3. Powerful CDN

A powerful and reliable CDN is a must-have feature for a live video streaming platform as it makes the delivery of live streaming video content faster for the audience around the globe.

4. Video Security

The most crucial aspect of owning a video streaming platform is protecting the exclusive live video content. Go for a professional live video streaming platform that is equipped with tight security like access control, encrypted streaming, watermarking, password protection, DRM, etc that protects your exclusive content from piracy.
