How do I make a streaming app scalable?
Cloud-based infrastructure lets the app handle increased traffic and data seamlessly, keeping it stable and responsive as the user base expands.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
What should I do after launching the app?
Gather user feedback and iterate: regular updates based on what users tell you keep the app relevant and improve satisfaction.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
Which option is more cost-effective in the long run?
Custom platforms are generally more cost-effective at scale because they eliminate revenue share and platform dependency.
Sales & Marketing
Which video monetization model is best for a new streaming platform?
It depends on your content and audience: SVOD suits large libraries with returning viewers, AVOD suits reaching a mass audience for free, and TVOD suits premium or one-off content. Hybrid combinations of these models are also common.
Sales & Marketing, Monetization
How can I launch my own VOD or OTT service?
White-label platforms such as Vodlix let you launch a branded streaming service with SVOD, AVOD, and TVOD monetization built in, and you can consult their experts to match a revenue model to your content.
Sales & Marketing, Monetization
Which offers better measurement, linear TV or CTV?
CTV provides far more detailed measurement and analytics on viewer behavior than linear TV, which relies on broad ratings. That data advantage lets advertisers and content owners optimize campaigns and content decisions.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
Should content owners focus on linear TV or CTV?
It depends on the audience and goals: linear TV still delivers mass reach for live programming, but CTV offers targeting, analytics, and on-demand flexibility that align with where viewing habits are heading. Many strategies combine both.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
When should a business choose the DIY route?
DIY makes sense when you have significant capital, a technical team, and a need for unique features or a strong differentiator, such as a niche service with very specific audience requirements.
Sales & Marketing
What does Vodlix offer as a white-label OTT provider?
Vodlix specializes in white-label OTT solutions for businesses of all sizes, providing the tools and features to launch a branded streaming service without building or maintaining the technology yourself.
Sales & Marketing
Can an EPG be used for advertising?
Yes. EPGs offer prime real estate for targeted advertising — ads can be placed within the guide itself or interspersed between program listings, creating an additional revenue stream.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
What future trends are shaping EPG technology?
Emerging trends include AI and machine learning for deeper personalization, voice-activated search and control, richer interactivity such as social integration, augmented reality overlays, and blockchain for securing program metadata.
Sales & Marketing, Live Streaming
What is Electronic Sell-Through (EST)?
EST is a digital commerce model where customers purchase digital content, such as movies, concerts, or courses, for long-term or perpetual access instead of renting it or subscribing. Purchases are added to a cloud-based digital library tied to the customer's account.
Sales & Marketing
How is EST different from renting or TVOD?
Both involve one-time payments, but rentals expire after a limited window while EST grants lasting access. EST serves customers who want to keep and revisit content, and it typically earns more revenue per transaction than rentals.
Sales & Marketing
Do customers actually own the content they buy?
Customers purchase a license to access the content, not the copyright itself. Ownership still needs to feel permanent, which is why clear licensing policies and reliable technology are essential.
Sales & Marketing
Why is digital ownership growing in 2026?
Subscription fatigue is rising as households juggle multiple monthly services, while premium releases, sports, concerts, and courses remain highly valued. EST offers flexibility without another recurring bill.
