Visual presentation of video usage statistics

A computer program product for displaying video statistics, the computer program product stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium and including instructions configured to cause a processor to carry out the steps of:

• receiving a request from a contributor for video statistics related to videos contributed by the contributor to a video hosting website, the view statistics including a number of views received by the videos;
• displaying in a user interface a plurality of statistics related to the contributed videos, the statistics displayed on a timeline and geographic map, the timeline indicating the views received by the videos and the geographic map highlighting a first geographic region associated with the timeline from which a greatest number of views were received;
• receiving input specifying a second geographic region;
• and
• modifying the displayed timeline to display only statistics related to the specified second geographic region.

A video statistics analyzer, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• a data analysis module, executed by the processor, adapted to analyze viewer behavior with respect to a plurality of videos contributed by a contributor;
• a graph generation module, coupled to the data analysis module and executed by the processor, adapted to display in a user interface a timeline graph of at least one video statistic over a first period of time, including a number of views received by the videos;
• a map generation module, coupled to the data analysis module and executed by the processor, adapted to display a geographic map, the geographic map highlighting a first geographic region from which a greatest number of views were received over the first period of time;
• and
• an interactivity module, coupled to the graph generation module and the map generation module, executed by the processor and adapted to receive user input specifying a second period of time, and to cause the graph generation module to display the video statistic over the second period of time and the map generation module to highlight a second geographic region from which a greatest number of views were received over the second period of time.
