I'm not an expert in video sharing scripts.

I can only suggest a free PHP script called PHPmotion

PHPmotion is a free video sharing software application that will allow you to create and run your very own video sharing website. With very little knowledge required you can now have website just like youtube.com and dailymotion.com and best of all, its 100% free to download and use.

Template based nature of PHPmotions means you change the look and feel.
A growing user base of over 4000 webmaster have already downloaded PHPmotion. PHPmotion also has a full featured admin area to manage your site.

Not to forget that we have a forum where you can get tips and ideas form other webmaster. There is also growing community of developers creating those "extra" features that will give PHPmotion the extra edge.


It is always a good idea to get a popular script that has developers and community supporting it.

If you have very ambitious plans, most probably you will need a custom solution that will be able to handle a huge amount of traffic. The good thing is that you can find professional web developers on a freelance project marketplace. Freelancers come from around the world: India, China, Russia, Canada, the U.S.,... so it will cost you less to developer a web application. But you should always pay attention to the quality of coding and other services freelancers provide.
