HeySpread Maintenance
HeySpread will be down for maintenance on May 18th @ 09:00:00 UTC. This will fix the stability and performance issue.
HeySpread To Shut Down Statistics/Tracking On October 31.
Hey,
Big news today : we decided to permanently remove statistics/tracking from our offer. Why? Simply because we hardly want to focus on our core first business : Video Mass-Distribution.
Statistics weren’t very used on HeySpread and people’s main interest was video distribution. That’s why we disabled this feature to concentrate all our efforts to offer the best video syndication web service so far. You will always enjoy to mass-upload your video content to the top ten most popular video sharing sites.
Of course, all the other features such as Watermarking, h264 Encoding or even the API for white-labeling will be always available.
Besides, we are currently working on a brand new “Freemium” offer. So that everybody can use HeySpread for free and enjoy a powerful video mass-distributing tool.
Stay tuned!

Justin.tv uses HeySpread to mass-distribute videos.

New HeySpread API resource: get the list of supported video sites
As you may already notice, the list of video sites we support changed many times since the launch of HeySpread. The problem is that your application didn’t know the sites we add or remove.
So, we decided to give you a way to know what are the sites we currently support via this simple API call: GET /sites. You also get other interesting information like the registration link, the favicon and the video size limit.
You can have a look at the documentation here.
