The online community follows a lot, what is new on the web and having in mind that the biggest companies have been advertising, it`s normal to see list for the top 10 best video commercials.
Before, mention the names I would add what are the majors sponsor from so many years. So far, I have counted 3 major one and 2 which were in commercial for a few times. Coca-Cola, Visa, and Nike are the major sponsor every year and P&G and BBC from time to time. Anyway, this gave them good accreditation according to online advertising. Every big event needs to have a good commercial to attract more people to buy their products, because the money for rewards are coming from them. Also, the accommodation for London 2012 will play serious financial role for the whole UK.
Number 1 is the Coca Cola – Courage commercial ( I`ve got beaten…). It has more than 14,000 shares and 2,400,000 views. It`s really inspiring issue to watch. The “Monkey Movie” take second place from the BBC channel with the incredible 2, 380, 000 views. It`s an animated movie with actors from ancient time. Every person have remembered Jackie Chan Olympic Commercial, where he had played a funny actor role with a baseball stick. Of course, on the list there are seven more interesting and unique creativity, like the Coca Cola- Vancouver Olympic 2010, Coca Cola- Snowball, Visa – Go World (Derek Redmond), Proctor & Gamble – Kids, Nike- Move, BBC – Winter Olympics and Nike – Human Chain. Watching them will gives you clear ideas what is so special in them and what is the key message. The chain is simple here. Good commercials, brings more popularity and fully booking for Olympic London accommodations.

You will probably remember commercials for toys advertised on TV that excited you, toys you couldn’t wait to try. For those who remember these commercials and especially for those who don’t, here is a glimpse back in time.




The Barbie doll was the first toy to ever be strategically marketed through TV commercials.

Mister Potato Head made his first appearance on store shelves in 1952. About 8 years later he was head of the whole Potato Head family.

Mattel Tommy Burst Submachine Gun. This commercial from the early 1960s would never make it to air time today.




The Hula Hoop craze took off in 1958. Since then there have been Hula Hoop competitions, Hula Hoop parties, and even Hula Hoop-a-thons.




In the early 1960s, Gaylord the Dog was popular too.




Dick Tracy two way radios.




The Roy Rogers Telephone set made it possible to keep in touch.




The swing wing of the 60s. What were the manufacturers thinking!
