Livestation, the home of TV news online

Livestation is the only service that aggregates TV news channels on the internet and on mobile

We believe the internet can finally open up access to all news sources and so empower people to make up their own mind as to what is really going on in the world. The best way to do this is by having access to as many diverse sources of information as possible in one place.  Livestation is the only platform that aggregates live international TV and radio news channels on the internet.

Livestation enables news broadcasters to extend their reach to a relevant audience and to generate additional revenue

Livestation enables news networks to both increase reach amongst a relevant and fast growing audience of over 1 million regular viewers and to generate additional revenue from both advertising and subscription services.

Since launching in September 2008, we now have 1 million regular viewers and are streaming over 40 million minutes of TV news every month and growing fast.

Here are some of the reasons why news networks like BBC World News, Al Jazeera and Bloomberg have already joined Livestation.

Reach and interact with the right audience

Livestation attracts a news hungry audience from around the world thanks to its flagship line-up of international news channels, its top ranking on Google for anything related to live TV news and its ability to offer seamless access on multiple platforms.

The two-way nature of the Internet means that broadcasters can finally engage with audiences thanks to our interactive, participation tools:

• bring the audience into the studio during live debates and shows with our Live Chat (link)
• survey viewers live with our Live Panel tool to find out what the audience really thinks of the issues being discussed on air (link)
• drive attention to programs and breaking news with no additional effort thanks to our Live Alerts and integration with Twitter (link)
• drive additional web traffic from embedded links across Livestation

Generate revenue

Broadcasters decide whether to charge viewers a monthly subscription or to give their channel away for free. A share of the revenues we create through our advertising and premium services can also be earned when becoming a partner.

These are our main ways to generate revenue for our partners:

• Generic advertising both from the site and desktop player
  
• Revenue share on premium (ads free) version
  
• Revenue share on premium TV quality service on desktop and web
  
• Revenue share on mobile subscription
  

Your channel on multiple platforms in one solution

As audiences are fragmenting across the growing number of available video platforms, it is becoming increasingly hard for broadcasters to reach their viewers.

Livestation enables you to distribute your channel on PCs and Smartphones - including iPhone and Blackberry - using one simple integrated approach.

Reporting

In-depth reporting is available to enable you to understand your audience better: see exactly what your viewers are watching, where they are, how long they watch for, what time of day, etc.
