Why video markeitng?

13 years ago

Not everyone emphasizes video, but as the internet in general shifts more and more towards video, so will IM.

You seem to have a lot of questions, which is good, but you might be better served by reading more and using the search feature. Most of the answers are there.

Thanks

People are spending more and more time watching video online. As a sales tool, people are more likely to click on your video than read a wall of sales copy. The average person spends about 1 minute on a website, you can hook a viewer in 1 minute with a great video and get them to spend more time, and the more time they spend, the more likely they are to buy your products or services.

Video is the easiest way to get to Page 1 on Google quickly. Also a well produced video doesn't cost the earth any more and there is loads of great software out there that means you can now do it yourself if you want to.

I believe it is because of the interactiveness. BUT it will heavily depend on the whole video storyline. A good sales copy is always better than a poorly done video.

Over the years, I have seen many marketeers mix copy with video and applying video when required only. To present a chart, or a testimonial or a walk through of the product. Things that you cannot do in writing.

When, you are going the video way, be sure to make it very professional, well edited so that people will actually watch it.

Just my 2 cents.

Video marketing can do alot for you. First and foremost, it shows *you*. That way, your viewers can see exactly who they're dealing with. If you can come across as legitimate and well-versed in your videos, it can help boost sales.

Plus, from an SEO perspective, uploading videos to YouTube can get you on page 1 (thanks to universal search), even if your website isn't quite there yet. Since there are much fewer videos than websites for your target keywords, you'll have an easier time getting a video to rank than a website.

Or, if your website is on page 1, if you can get a video to rank there, too, now you've taken up 2 spots on page 1 (and pushed one of your competitors to page 2!)

Video is what's hot right now. People love video and for the last few years, video has been blowing up in popularity because it's a fast way to convey information. Video also is very entertaining. Marketers have noticed that if they use video on landing pages that conversions go up. So that's another reason why there is such an emphasis on video these days.

Because:

1) Google loves videos! A stupid video can rank easily and appear fast even on the first page.

2) Videos are easy to do. You don't have to be a professional: Actually, the more amateur the approach the more relaxed your customers. Soft selling at its best!

3) Videos are great fun! :p

Well, video allows a more personal connection between the advertiser and the prospect. The prospect can see there is a real person behind the webpage, so he's more likely to buy.

Secondly, there are massive video distribution channels like YouTube that can get you loads of free traffic.

And third, people are lazy. Many people would rather sit back and watch a video than sit and read sales copy or words on a website. They feel more like they're being entertained and it's less work for them.

Why Video?
People do business with people they know, like, and trust. Video is about as close as you can get to having people physically in front of you talking. Moves you closer to making a sale.

I truly think video marketing is by far the easiest way to get traffic, even though it is hard to get that traffic to convert.

I think if all article marketers put there energy into video marketing, they would be A LOT richer.

There are many benefits to implement video marketing to your marketing today. Just make sure you do it right and precise for your objective. For example, I've been using video as the main content for my membership site. Members just love the fact that I can SHOW them the "how to" in less than 3 min and they know exactly what they need to do. I'm in the forex niche, so video is the best way to demonstrate and also it helps stand out from the rest of our competition.

Let me share with you what have worked for me to create a high quality video every single day for my members. So in a nutshell:

1. I use Camtasia and Screenflow for my screen recordings.
2. The resolution I fell in love with is 720 x480. I found this resolution to provide nice looking videos.
3. I render the videos in mp4 format. I switched from the .flv (flash format) as mp4 are also accepted by the Apple Ipad - Iphone formats and all other cellphones as well.
4. I store my videos on my s3 Amazon account , as I want control of who view my videos and can "protect" some how a little better my content.
5. Promotional videos I use Youtube, for SEO purpose and easy distribution.
6. I use wordpress for my site, so it is easier to use many plugins to play my videos.

So basically this is more or less what I use every day for the creation of my videos. You can see an example in here (NO I HAVE , NOTHING TO SELL OR OFFER IN THIS LINK) This is my niche site, so I just want to provide a sample of the quality of my videos, if you are interested.

I hope this helps you understand, that not only videos are great for marketing, but it is an amazing tool for content creation. Just make sure to; depending on what you are trying to communicate, make them short and straight to the point.

Videos give a viewer a personal feeling with your site, give them a reason to trust you because they can hear and see you as if you were in the room with them. That alone is gonna end up being a very popular way of marketing forever and is only gonna get better.

well, you tell me, would you rather read an ebook or an article that is a few pages long, or watch a quick video with the same information.

1. Videos attract the eye more than reading.
2. You comprehend more information.
3. A lot easier to pay attention to the content.

We have just hit that type of generation now where videos will take over articles and ebooks.

If you do testing on your landing pages, you will find that by having video, it does increase your conversions. It's not mandatory to have it on your sites but it does help.

It's simple, what do you rather to do, watch a movie or read the book?
Which one catches your attention more?

For most people it's the movie "Video."
So video marketing would prove more efficient and successful than article marketing, most of the time.
After all, would you rather read a long sales pitch for a product, or watch a single video that tells you all about the product..
