Watch, manage, share and grow with Simeya TV.

Simeya TV is a content, publishing and traffic platform. A Simeya member does not need to own a YouTube account to activate Simeya TV. Members can build a public Simeya TV Website around their interests using videos, Grid Playlists, images, audio, written content and services from across the Simeya ecosystem. YouTube becomes an optional growth path, not an entry requirement.

Simeya TV Is for More Than YouTubers

A Simeya member does not need to own a YouTube account or YouTube channel in order to add the Simeya TV Platform to his or her Simeya account.

Every person has interests, knowledge, hobbies, business experience, local information or subjects they care about. Simeya TV gives that member a way to organize useful media and build a public website around those interests. Members who do not yet have a YouTube account can later be encouraged and assisted to create one around the same subject.

Simple progression
TV Member → Handler → Creator Partner Start by curating and publishing. Add original YouTube content later when ready.

Build a Simeya TV Website

A Simeya TV owner with a public Handle can build a subject-focused website using Simeya TV assets and services from other Simeya platforms. The visitor experiences one public website even though specialized Simeya platforms may provide different parts of the page.

Video & Grid Playlists

Use selected YouTube videos, chosen channels and multi-channel Grid Playlists as the traffic-generating content foundation.

Images & Audio

Add original images, galleries, audio, voice commentary and other media to make the site more than a collection of video links.

Articles & Pages

Build written content around videos and Grid Playlists so the website develops its own subject authority, search visibility and identity.

Simeya Services

Connect the site to Simeya Website, Marketplace, Marketing, Advertising, registration, SLR and other Simeya services.

One Website — Multiple Simeya Platforms

Simeya TV acts as the public content and traffic hub while each specialized Simeya platform provides the service it owns. This avoids duplicating the same functionality inside every platform.

Simeya AI Content Studio

AI can help a member turn curated media into original supporting content. Instead of asking every user to be a professional writer, Simeya can help users explain, organize and promote the subjects they already care about.

Create From Existing Content

  • Write an article around a Grid Playlist.
  • Create an introduction to selected videos.
  • Generate page titles and SEO descriptions.
  • Summarize a content collection.
  • Create social-media promotion.
  • Create newsletter or Marketplace promotional copy.

Shared Across Simeya

The AI capability should be a shared Simeya service rather than being locked inside Simeya TV.

Grid Playlists as Publishing Collections

A Simeya Grid Playlist is more than a traditional YouTube playlist. It can combine selected videos from multiple YouTube channels around one subject and become the foundation for a complete public content page.

Example:
Jamaica's Best Waterfalls

Channel A
  ├── Video 1
  └── Video 7
Channel B
  ├── Video 3
  └── Video 9
Channel C
  └── Video 4

Main Public Pages

These pages can be used by viewers, creators and visitors without entering the administrative area.

Simeya TV URL Structure

Simeya TV has a media/administrative area and a separate public-facing domain.

Media / administrative area:
https://media.simeya.online/tv

Public TV:
https://simeya.tv

Handler public site:
https://simeya.tv/destinconsult

Handler Help:
https://simeya.tv/destinconsult/help.php

Handler-aware pages preserve the handler context while still loading the shared Simeya TV application.

Handler Public Site

A handler public site is a Simeya TV Website. It gives a Simeya user a public address for videos, multi-channel Grid Playlists, articles, images, audio, creator opportunities, registration links, Marketplace offers, Marketing activity, Advertising and other Simeya services.

Setting Up a Handler Site

1

Create your TV handle

Open the TV Channel Handle setup page and create or confirm the public handle assigned to the user.

2

Choose a simple public address

The handle becomes the personalized Simeya TV address. Example: https://simeya.tv/destinconsult

3

Assign the channel homepage

Select the public experience visitors should see when they open the handler URL.

4

Choose YouTube channels

Select the channels that should appear in the handler's public channel grid.

5

Test the public experience

Test the home page, channel grid, videos, Help page, Message link and registration / QR flow in a private browser window.

YouTube Channels

Simeya TV can maintain approved YouTube channels as content sources.

  • Add and manage YouTube channels.
  • Store channel details and thumbnails.
  • Cache channel videos locally for faster Simeya TV browsing.
  • Detect and maintain live-video information.
  • Assign or choose channels for a handler.
  • View channel performance and activity.

  • Add playlists from approved YouTube channels.
  • Manage playlist associations.
  • Use playlists as player or public viewing sources.
  • Combine playlist content with Simeya TV player templates.
  • Update cached playlist information as YouTube content changes.

Channel Grid, Video Grid and Playlist Grid

Channels Grid

The channels grid shows the YouTube channels selected for the active handler. When no individual channel is selected, channel artwork is used to represent each available channel.

Video Grid

Selecting a channel opens that channel's cached video collection. Videos can play in the Simeya TV lightbox instead of sending the viewer away to the public YouTube website.

Playlist Grid

A Playlist Grid can combine selected videos from multiple YouTube channels into one subject-focused collection. It can become the media foundation for a larger Simeya TV Website page containing articles, images, audio, Marketplace offers, Marketing and Advertising.

YouTube Synchronization

Simeya TV maintains local YouTube information so public pages do not need to rebuild large channel collections every time a visitor opens a grid.

1

Video Cache

Channel videos are synchronized into the Simeya TV video cache.

2

Channel Details

Channel information such as names, thumbnails and other YouTube details can be refreshed.

3

Live Video Information

Simeya TV can refresh active live-video information for configured YouTube channels.

4

Scheduled Updates

The server can run the unified YouTube updater automatically using the Simeya TV cron process.

Automatic Hourly Sync

Simeya TV can execute the YouTube synchronization process automatically each hour.

Cron runner:
/tv/cron/youtube-sync.php

Update controller:
/tv/admin/run-youtube-updates.php

Typical schedule:
Once every hour

Administrators can also run updates manually when an immediate refresh is needed.

Simeya TV Internal Messaging

Simeya TV now includes threaded internal conversations for users, administrators and channel-related communication.

Conversations

Messages are grouped into conversations instead of being shown as unrelated individual messages.

  • View conversation subjects.
  • See unread-message indicators.
  • Open a conversation to read its message history.
  • Reply within the same thread.
  • Close a completed conversation.
  • Clear conversations when appropriate.

Administrative Messages

Admin and Superadmin users can start new internal Simeya TV conversations with Simeya users.

  • Administrative messages are visually identified.
  • New conversations remain marked unread until deliberately opened.
  • Replies remain within the original conversation.
  • Messaging can support operational, creator and verification workflows.

YouTube Verification Messages

Simeya TV messaging can identify conversations associated with YouTube verification. This provides a direct communication path when Simeya needs to confirm channel ownership or other creator information.

Verification conversations appear separately identified from ordinary internal messages so that channel owners and administrators can quickly recognize them.

Verification Workflow
Channel → Message → Verification Keep replies inside the verification conversation until the channel verification process is complete.

Public Message Channel

Public viewers can use the Message Channel function to contact the relevant handler or channel context.

Handler message link:
https://simeya.tv/destinconsult/message-channel.php

Global message page:
https://simeya.tv/message-channel.php

The public contact flow is separate from the authenticated internal threaded messaging area.

Internal Messages

Logged-in Simeya users use the internal Messages area for ongoing conversations.

Internal message center:
https://media.simeya.online/tv/admin/messages.php

Internal messages retain the conversation history and unread status for the participating users.

YouTubers and Creator Partners

Simeya TV provides a pathway for YouTubers and other video creators to participate as creator partners.

1. Discover Creators can discover Simeya participation opportunities through public TV pages.
2. Participate Approved channels may be added to Simeya TV channel and playlist sources.
3. Verify Channel verification can be coordinated through Simeya TV messaging.
4. Grow Channel activity and performance can support future promotions, rewards and creator programs.

QR Registration

Public Simeya TV pages can provide a registration button and QR code so visitors can join the wider Simeya platform.

Example registration flow:

https://extranet.simeya.online/register.php
    ?source=simeya_tv
    &handler=destinconsult    &ref=destinconsult

When a visitor comes through a handler site, the handler/referral information can travel with the registration request.

Referral Context

The public handler context helps Simeya identify which handler or public channel introduced the visitor.

This referral connection can later support Simeya Loyalty Reward, commissions, bonuses, creator programs and other approved platform incentives.

Handler-Aware Public Pages

Public Simeya TV pages can be accessed inside a handler's URL without creating a physical folder for every handler.
