Why YouTube penetration is not high in Nigeria.


1).Poor Internet connection
Person wey never get enough data to Facebook or surf Nairaland no fit talk say he want watch YouTube. For where?

Even if the data is there the network is slow most times except for during the night. The video would buffer over and over again for long periods of time.

2).Sharing Policies in Nigeria
A lot of people would prefer to receive videos through their Bluetooth or Xender/Flashshare rather than downloading theirs.

3). Nigerians can't afford to watch videos over and over again.

A lot of whites stream videos multiple times thus generating multiple views on YouTube.

4).Lack of Internet awareness
Many have not even heard of YouTube before. Some have heard of it but have never used it before. Some may want to use it but they are over afraid of data consumption due to tales they have heard.
