Affiliate Marketing How-To Parody

It sure did

Thanks !

Hey thanks! I had a lot of fun making it.

Do ya'll think I should make more?

Write up an e-book to go with it and post it for a $17 WSO

(you might want to fix the mistake though, claiming everyone in the world has money. many of my clients are broke)

I think there's real potential there to have that video tidy'ed and cooked up with some smart graphics and used as a squeeze page to an ebook on affiliate marketing and WSO'd the heck out of!

Take a look at a couple of video's we have done and imagine the potential!

PM me if this might be the seedling of a good idea!

Np MeghanK. I don't take it as mean at all. YouTube Marketing Expert just sounded better than.... guy who really like viral videos.

The term expert is very ubiquitous. Being an expert is simply knowing more than the audience that you are speaking to.

That being said I have been marketing on YouTube since 2008. No one thought there was commercial intent there, but I saw it differently. Eventually I was able to put together a training course about how to build websites using Joomla. We marketed entirely on YouTube because it brought in such intense targeted traffic.

Start Learning Joomla! - Start Learning Joomla!

This pays my bills now.

This is a real estate company in Southern California. The testimonials you see generated over 75k in profit in 3 months for this company because of the placement on YouTube.

I make myself money, and I make other people money. I have more case studies if you would like to see them, though I don't think that is the point. I bring up these case studies merely to show that I am not just some dude just wanting to get a good turn out on a future WSO or something.

Views are not created equal. Every video can be divided between two different forms of virality. General Virality, and Relative Virality, (or Specific Virality). General Virality is your kids, cats, pranks, music videos, parodies, people getting hurt, etc. videos. These are your one million plus views in a month. These are videos that identify with a global society and are treated as such. Relative Virality is like being at a trade show and everyone knowing who YOU are. Niche marketing (what YouTube serves best for internet marketers) is all about being a big fish in a little pond. YouTube gives marketers the power of Relative Virality. Many times less is more.

It's like adwords before people really understood it.

Start Learning Joomla is now organically within the first three spots on YouTube for almost any Joomla training search term... Heck we are 3 for just Joomla. Now that may not seem like much, but YouTube beat out Yahoo as the second largest search engine in the world. With 130,000 global searches per month for the term Joomla Training. It goes a long way.

The main video we have for SLJ has 56k views. In comparison to most Joomla videos it dominates, but 56k views isn't a lot in a 1 year time frame. Views are different for each industry. Fewer people go to YouTube for marketing help than people who want to watch parkour videos. Therefore if I have gobs of views... I am doing something wrong. That would mean I was deluding my potential conversion by being appealing to a too general of an audience. More customer do not always mean more money, and more views and traffic does not mean better conversion. SLJ consistently gets 50% of the viewers to the website, and we likes its thats way.

YouTube works, and it works well. But too many people give up. They don't understand what it can do.

A YouTube video should be viewed just as much an extension of your website as any other page. It can serve as tech support, be the beginning of your sales funnel, act as customer support etc. YouTube can do a lot more than just entertain. We are in the infancy of something amazing. Video in general will change how we all look at marketing. I have tested, tested, and tested some more. I took what we created with SLJ and have created more using the same steps just to see if I was just lucky. There are the right ways to do market, and the wrong ways to market. I have found the right way to do it on YouTube.

I have been making videos for my Zane S Miller channel since the beginning of June. If you look at the time frame I actually do have quite a few views in relation to the search demand.

I can answer any question you throw at me about marketing on YouTube. I have done consulting work, channel evaluations, and even produced videos. I have a crazy strong passion for video marketing, and want to really help people. But I wanted to be sure I could cut the mustard. That's why I am here.

Does that help?

Does that answer your question?

LOL When I read your reply I went back and counted all of the views across all of the channels and I have 1.2 million total views. That isn't just YouTube though. There are other video distribution sites too. But YouTube is the best.
