Many people today waste a lot of time
and money trying to acquire traffic for there websites, but
what they fail to realize is that there are a number of free
tools accessible on the internet that can help them in
getting more traffic. A really good one I like is called
YouTube. I'm sure you have heard of it. It's probably one of
the largest video sharing companies on the planet. I use
YouTube for my
organic seo marketing videos.
YouTube is a free service that allows
members to upload videos that can be seen all around the
world. So in what way can YouTube help raise your search
engine rankings? Simple! Any videos uploaded to YouTube have
tags, and keywords which are indexed by search engines.
Creating a video is not that difficult.
1. Prepare a good concept for your
video preferably related to your website or whatever your
selling.
2. Make your video.
You can use a home made camera, or use a slideshow maker,
PowerPoint presentation, or adobe flash. Generally videos
that are too long in length bore visitors, so make sure your
video gets straight to the point and short. Try not going
more then 3 minutes long. Good idea to add your website
address to the beginning and ending of your video.
3. Optimize your video for search
engine results.
YouTube allows you to include a title, description, and tags
to the video so users can search for it. Your title needs to
be catchy and not a bad idea to include keywords. Your
video's description, should describe what your video is
about, and have your link pointing back to your website.
Finally, for the tags, include proper keywords or key
phrases.
4. Get people to watch your video.
Send video link to friends, family, co-workers, in an email
blast. The idea is to pass it around as much as possible.
Post it on facebook, myspace, or your blog.
5. Make anchor text back links to
your video.
Post your video on bookmarking and social networking sites.
Remember to anchor your keywords.
