WOM is Key to the Spread of Online Video

Those are some of the key findings in a new report from the Online Publishers Association about the demographics of online video consumption.

With the ever-increasing popularity of viral clips, the data also showed that word of mouth is the main vehicle for consumers to share online video with each other:

* 44% forward an email with a link to the video

* 31% use a site's "tell a friend" option

* 31% talk about the video over the telephone

* 7% post a link on their blog
