Evtv1 COO Anisa Ali commented, “What makes Evtv1.com different than other video portals is our content. While we have plenty for the twenty-something crowd, the fastest growing demographic online are 'baby boomers.' Until Evtv1 came along, there was not much for this demo to view. But adding licensed classic television clips of Barney Fife, Beverly Hillbillies, Buck Owens and historical figures like Churchill and Malcolm X, we have broad content areas to serve this audience."

Being named one of the Top 50 Entertainment sites on the web comes at a time when Evtv1 is experiencing dramatic growth in video views. Ali continued, “We believe this validates our business model and demonstrates that people over 40 will view video clips if there is something for them to watch. With technology of serving video becoming commoditized, the main distinguishing factor between video portals will be content. Content was and will always be king. The novelty of technology wears off but good content is forever.”

Evtv1.com is one of fastest growing online video portals offering free video clips covering 23 different channels of content. Evtv1 is a completely free service offering streamed video clips with pre-roll advertising. Evtv1 is a subsidiary of NextEra Media. For more information, contact:
