NextWebstar.com - It Could Be You!

Disheartened that you didn´t get to really prove yourself on American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, or your last audition? Next Webstar will allow you to share your talent with the web world. You can enter videos in their various contests. Currently, there are contests for best band, best dancer, and best actor. The top current entries are pretty decent.

 
  In their own words  

“With the explosion of online video in 2006, Next Webstar was born to provide an outlet for anyone to share their talent with the world, without all the clutter of other video sites. The power of the internet has allowed the PEOPLE to define entertainment and has weakened traditional "Hollywood" methods of becoming a celebrity. Innovative sites like YouTube have proven that everyday people can become celebrities if they have that certain something that makes us want to watch. There is no longer the need for years of auditions before you can get your big break. Online video has truly enabled us to choose America"s funniest home videos and the real American idols.

  Why it might be a killer  

People love entering contests that get them onto TV and possibly discovered. If this site gains a big enough audience or has big enough prizes, people will definitely be entering their videos if they think this might be their big shot at stardom since all those auditions aren´t paying off. This takes away all of the unnecessary and unrelated viral videos and just keeps the one specific to each content in one easy to find and vote on place. They offer an easy way for sponsors to host contests as well.

  Some questions  


How will they grow their audience so that there is a decent amount of entries and competition and people voting on the videos?
