Video sharing websites such as YouTube, Vimeo, and DailyMotion make big bucks by providing an easy way for people to upload and share homemade videos. To give you an idea of the scope of the user-generated content revolution, consider that YouTube alone serves more than 3.5 billion videos every day  – and that number keeps growing. Now add all the videos uploaded to Facebook, MySpace, and other social networks, plus the millions of self-hosted videos, and you can start to form a vague idea of about how many clips are played on the Internet on any given day.

Without doubt, the public is hungry for videos. The demand is present. Now it’s up to you and other Internet entrepreneurs to provide the supply.

As an Internet entrepreneur, you have the ability to turn on a dime, to seize new opportunities in a way that is impossible with brick-and-mortar businesses. To profit from the ever-shifting world of opportunities provided by the Web, you just need the vision to see where the Internet economy is heading so you can find that elusive niche that will become tomorrow’s Hot New Thing. And the best thing about it? You need only a surprisingly modest investment to get the ball rolling.

Let’s take application hosting, for example. Certified Hosting provides unlimited application hosting solutions for a monthly fee that is less than the price of a meal at your favorite fast-food joint. Moreover, the power put at your fingertips by these solutions is amazing. You can host as many AdSense-affiliated blogs as you want, create multiple online stores, start forums in numerous niches, or just churn out dozens of microsites promoting your products. The monthly fee will remain the same, but the opportunities to create revenue will multiply exponentially.

What about the time required to create all these online properties? Doesn’t it count as an investment from your side? Yes, it does. But with Certified Hosting, you can minimize that investment. Most of the application hosting plans offered by Certified Hosting include one-click installation scripts that drastically reduce the time required to deploy a blog, online store, forum, wiki page, or social network.
