The Horse Sports Network owns its own servers and software and monitors each webcast 24/7 so even at unpredicted peak traffic, our viewers will not lose the quality. Unfortunately for you, quality goes down as traffic goes up. Not a good thing to happen to you on a busy Saturday night when your traffic is at a peak and your videographer has pre-purchased a packaged server.
The Horse Sports Network is also a partner with Barrel Horse World, the largest and busiest barrel racing site on the internet. Barrel Horse World is still growing with over 2 million visits in November of 2013 alone. Barrel Horse World is also home to the largest database of barrel horses, horse trailers, tack and events.
No one comes close.

Dear Event Producer:
Thanks for considering webcasting your next event. We currently contract with three videographers across the nation. I wanted to explain to you what we are doing here at Horse Sports Network.
Horse Sports Network is a wholly owned subsidiary of Barrel Horse World and Horse Trailer World. Our main mission is webcasting horse related events for our customers. We supply unlimited bandwidth, hosting servers, webcast graphics, promotion, and technical support, to each of our contracted videographers, so they can focus on doing the best job possible at your event.
But we also bring you a very large audience with both Horse Trailer World and Barrel Horse World, so we're more than just another "webcasting company". We've been doing this for six years and keep enhancing the viewing experience. We were the first to include the draw on the left for barrel races, then we added interactive chat on the right for viewers. Recently we have been doing "Highlight" videos of the winning runs. At some events we can also bring you special online announcing, still photography and even multiple arenas simulcast. This past year we have also begun building and placing video commercials for you and your sponsors to play during your event. We have more ideas planned for 2014 to make these webcasts not only useful . . . but entertaining.
And the traffic is growing quickly. A good thing for you, and your sponsors.
Every race we webcast for you is promoted thru our own social media (with over 100,000 followers) and email pushes (over 20,000 registered users and growing). Horse Sports Network webcast customers also get special home page banners for their events on Barrel Horse World and Horse Trailer World during the event.
We also have discounted banner advertising on Barrel Horse World months prior to your event, and linked to your website and entry form to help your race fill to capacity - early.
I can have an agreement sent to you for both webcasting and advertising your event in one package if you need.
Let me know what your goals are and how we can help you reach them.
