Distribute your video to Yahoo automatically.

Reach audiences across every Yahoo vertical
How it works
Your publishing workflow,
extended to Yahoo
No separate Yahoo dashboard. No manual uploads per video. Just publish in VideoNest and your content reaches Yahoo's audience automatically.
Upload your content to VideoNest
Add video to your VideoNest library the way you already work — bulk import, FTP, direct upload, or sync from YouTube, Dropbox, or S3. VideoNest becomes part of your standard publishing workflow.
Create a feed for Yahoo
Define which content goes to Yahoo — by category, tag, channel, or playlist. VideoNest generates a compliant MRSS feed formatted to Yahoo's exact specifications, with metadata, thumbnails, and video delivery handled automatically.
Automate and track
Once your feed is live, every new video you publish that matches your filter appears on Yahoo automatically. Track views and performance from Yahoo alongside all your other distribution channels in the VideoNest analytics dashboard.
Capabilities
What VideoNest builds for you
VideoNest generates and maintains a fully-structured MRSS feed — every field Yahoo requires, automatically populated from your library.
Every required Yahoo field — title, description, category tags, video URL, thumbnail, and duration — populated automatically from your VideoNest library.
Automated feed generation
VideoNest builds your MRSS feed in the exact format Yahoo requires — titles, descriptions, thumbnails, video URLs, category tags, duration, and publication date, all populated from your library automatically.
Same-day video delivery
New videos published in VideoNest appear in your Yahoo feed within hours — no re-submission, no manual steps per video. Your feed updates continuously as you publish.
Multi-vertical targeting
Create separate feeds for different Yahoo verticals — Finance, Sports, News — and define exactly which content goes where based on your categories, tags, or channels.
Unified analytics
Views and engagement from Yahoo are reported in your VideoNest dashboard alongside all your other distribution channels — no separate logins or manual data exports.
Feed health monitoring
VideoNest monitors your feed for errors, broken URLs, or spec changes from Yahoo and alerts you proactively — so your distribution never quietly breaks.
Requirements
What you need to get started
Yahoo Integration Requirements
Business plan or higher
Yahoo video syndication requires a VideoNest Business plan or above. This unlocks MRSS feed generation, publishing integrations, and the distribution tools needed to maintain your Yahoo presence. See all plans →
An existing relationship with Yahoo
Yahoo's video syndication program is invitation-based. You'll need approval from a Yahoo editorial or partnership representative before your feed can go live. VideoNest builds and delivers the feed — your team is responsible for initiating and managing the relationship with Yahoo directly.
Content that meets Yahoo's editorial standards
Your video content must comply with Yahoo's quality guidelines for the vertical you're publishing to. This includes original content, proper metadata, 16:9 format at up to 1080p, and adherence to any topic or brand safety requirements outlined in your Yahoo agreement.
You submit the feed to Yahoo
VideoNest generates a validated, Yahoo-compliant MRSS feed URL. Submitting that feed to Yahoo's publisher portal is your team's responsibility — we make it as simple as sharing a single URL with your Yahoo contact.
