Otherwise, the best thing to do is get in contact with people who are linking to the videos and ask them if they wouldn't mind linking to some of the pages on the website also. Some of them might get annoyed that they been contacted, some won't reply, but some will surely help out.

These are my thoughts about the above topic if any contradicts them or have anything else to add to it, please do so.

Yes and No! if it can bring traffic to your website, it will make google think the site is resourceful. That is how the ranking may improve. If it does not, then it will not benefit you.

You can gain so much traffic from Youtube, plus your videos will rank highly in Google so

even if your rank does not improve you will still gain a lot of traffic.

Hope this helps.

You can definitely get a lot of traffic from YouTube for your website if not an enhanced ranking. YouTube monetization is a powerful move in itself, and YouTube popularity can impact your online reputation positively but is not a sure way of improving your ranking in SERP.

Believe me if there is any possibility something like that would get benefit.
every real SEO would be on top of that horse's back for yeas by now.

So, the answer is no, even thou long shot idea sounds very attractive.

SERP and Youtube video rank is totally 2 different things. If you have popular youtube channel it may increase your brand awareness but not enough to reach your site SERP.

Well if you have your YouTube video embedded in your website/blog and share for example on social media, not only is your video going to get views, but you will be getting traffic back to your website. The more hits you are getting, the more relevant your site and video will become.

Not necessarily.
Why would I go to site when video would give me what I need
and the best part, I don't have to waste my time on reading?
