What am I doing wrong?

7 replies
So for the past two days, I've tried to put a Youtube video up that is titled "Make Money Online - How to Make Money With Affiliate Marketing" and then I made my video and then had a long description of making money online. Then I put this link up in the description Operation Quick Money Training Program

Why does the video keep getting brought down? I figured it might have something to do with being directed towards that page, so I put this link in the description for another video on the same thing Make Money online and it still took the video off? Can anyone please help me with this?

    It's simple, quit making videos with the title "how to make money online"

    Sorry to say this but if this hasn't dawned on you as being the reason as to why they keep being brought down, then maybe you need to be more perceptive.

    Obviously YouTube does not want videos with those titles for the most part.

    All the best.

        It has to be either:

        A. Your links
        B. The Video Itself
        C. Someone keeps flagging your content.

        Those are the only things i can really think of that answer the questions as to why your videos wont stay up...

    It could be a few reasons but I suspect it has to do with your title and your link. You are promoting a very popular Affiliate Marketing product and YouTube does not like direct linking to affiliate sales pages, especially biz opp products. They have also gotten very strict on direct linking to squeeze pages, biz opp or otherwise.

    The good news is that there are many other ways to get your point across while staying within the YouTube safety zone.

    What you should do first of all is come up with alternate titles for your videos and start linking to a blog post that has some valuable content on it instead of linking directly to the sales page.

    Make sure your videos are at least 3-5 minutes long and are not simply videos that are directly promoting an affiliate product, but ones that are providing a solution or showing people how to do something related to marketing. For instance, teach people how to write good review posts, or teach them how to install a WordPress blog or set up a Blogger blog or show them how to write an effective email, etc.

    I used to create short videos and direct link to my squeeze pages all the time and never had a problem, but times are changing...

    Hi JACK20NSM1TH

    I presume maybe the description is too long or it may fail the youtube's standard.

    In other view maybe the video and the keyword is not well optimized. They have their own standard and rules when it comes ranking a video.

    You can contact their support so that you can understand their system further.

    Thanks

    Youtubes standards a little tricky but basically your advertising something and you shouldn't put that as your title
