Doe's anyone think this is a copyright problem with Yellowpages.

I remember seeing a video, I think from Don Wilson?

The idea is to take an existing Yellowpages video and "fix" it so the customer gets the video on page one.

I.e.
This won't get searched on google until title is changed, there are some backlinks, etc.

The reason I ask is my youtube account was cancelled about a year ago for putting up just one video promoting some amazon product. I must have put company in the title of video. I don't even remember.

I also wonder if yellow pages legal would claim copyright for taking their video and basically reselling it. Or even if they would bother.

The people who pay the big bucks for those videos are the real losers as they all get few views as their videos are.

I am sure there have been wso's about this. I probably have one buried on my hard drive.

    You have to be careful because if Yellow Pages keeps all rights, that's a big monster to fight. If they actually sell it to the business and the business has rights to do what they want with it, the business owner would have to give you permission.

    You could of course use throwaway YouTube accounts and experiment, but that's on the greyer side of things and who knows what the outcome could be?

      Hopefullly those wso's were written by copyright lawyers. That's a hell of a mine field you are navigating. If you have never been to federal court, then you won't know what I'm talking about.

      Why not just take a two or three minute video on your own and with the biz owner's permission post it on YT?

      Save yourself the grief unless you have deep pockets.

      Just my 2¢...

    There have been some great WSOs on craigslist and some of them have recommended doing this, taking a video and tweaking it to make it better. It goes on the assumption that a couple of parties will do nothing much about it, but it might be better to take the general theme and then go make your own.
