Variety recently revealed the following info:

1. There are 1 billion people using YouTube
2. 6 billion hours of video is watched every month on YouTube
3. Marketers shun video platforms other than to try and achieve viral videos.
4. Video is the future of content marketing.
5. YT is underused by content marketers.

Plus, your YouTube content affects your Google rank.

Why do you think content marketers don't utilize YouTube? Do you think they just don't know how to use it? Or do you think there are other reasons?

    I use YouTube to get tons of free traffic.

    Let me know if you want tips and such.

    You just have to have a clear hook, message and call to action.

    The return isn't quick, so many use it for a minute and when they aren't generating many leads/day, they bail.

    It's indicitive of this business as a whole. People want quick results for no effort.

    You need to commit to 90 days of video creation.

    YouTube likes active channels ,engaged viewers and wants to keep people on YouTube.

    Do that and they reward you

    Because many marketers do not really understand how youtube works and how it helps their business. One more thing is they can't create their own video. It's expensive if you hire someone to do it for your self.

    A video with voice over and good script may cause $30 up to $250 , depends on the script, content, and length. This is the reason why many online marketer can't afford it.

    But most viral videos were spot shots not scripted. But this kind of video can not be used for business purposed.
