Youtube Tips For Promoting Your Videos
- ARTICLES |
Rarely do I get mad at an affiliate who is promoting one of my products. But just the other day, I did a search in the search engines, and I saw someone promoting my product blatantly, and the way that they did it made it look "spammy". I know these people will think that if someone does a search for my product, their Youtube video will come up as maybe second or third in the results.
I hate it when people take my hard work and makes it look terrible online. This is something that I detest. Whenever I tell one of my affiliates to take down a promotion like that... another affiliate pops up and does the same thing - as if it was some popular strategy to do online.
Youtube is a great place to promote your products and services, but you will want to strive to give good information first. Don't create a video that is all about advertising a product. Too many videos like this and Youtube may ban your account. So when doing your Youtube marketing, deliver excellent content, and if you want to get traffic back to your website... include a link at the bottom of your video so that people can know where to go for more information.
Now when it comes down to creating your video, you have alot of options at your disposal. One of the fastest and easiest ways to create a video is to interview someone. And it's best if you interview someone in your niche that is very well known. This will only boost your perception in terms of authority to your readers - since you were able to convince your "big time" niche celebrity to agree to an interview with you.
You don't want to throw out any surprises to them. It's best to contact them, see if they agree to the interview, give them the list of questions that you want to ask them, and have them prepare for the questions. This is a great way to make things move seamlessly, and to have a successful interview.
After the interview, prepare the video and make sure your promotional links are intact onto the video. You will need some professional software to do this. One good software is something called "ArcSoft Video Impression". I'm not going to lead you down the wrong path... this software is expensive, but what you get from it is something that is totally amazing. This software even gives you the option to extract the audio from the video, and turn it into a podcast for you immediately.
After you're done with the video, send a copy of it to your interviewee so that they can use it on their site to promote to their prospects and customers. It's a win-win situation for the both of you. Strive to make your interview last around 60 minutes. Trust me, time will go fast - so a 60 minute interview won't take long.
If you're going to upload it to Youtube, break it up into 10 minute segments. So you will have a total of 6 videos, all tallying up to 60 minutes. You can get incredible views and traffic this way. Be sure to promote these videos everywhere that you can. People in your niche will surely benefit from it.
Good luck with using Youtube to market your website today.
