Video Marketing – How to Create and Upload Videos to Increase Backlinks, Rankings and Web Traffic

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Looking for a highly effective way to attract more visitors to your web site?

Online videos are common place now and many marketers are using them to boost their web traffic.  Let’s discuss how to create, edit, upload and distribute your videos.

1. Create your video

Use a video camera (or digital camera if you don’t have one) to record your movie. Make sure your camera is steady so you won’t get jerky motions. Have plenty of light (natural is better) in the background so your subjects are well illuminated.

If you’re creating a slide show using Windows Movie Maker then you don’t even need a camera. Alternatively create your slides in Power point or Open Office Impress then capture screen shots with Camtasia.

2. Editing your video

Before uploading your video for public consumption, check for any errors then edit them or redo the movie until you’re satisfied with it. If using windows movie maker you can edit the movie within it. Save the file in MOV or AVI format

3. Upload your video

Create an account on You Tube or other video sharing sites then upload your video. It will take a few minutes to upload. Be sure to write a descriptive paragraph that will attracts viewers. Include a link back to your web site. This will help boost your backlinks.

4. Distribute to multiple sites

Not all people just visit You Tube to watch videos. There are many others that are visited also. Here is a list of top 10 video sharing web sites:

YouTube

Metacafe

Break

Google Video

Dailymotion

Yahoo! Video

Revver

vidiLife

Stickam

ZippyVideos

Tip

Like article submission the key to attracting lots of traffic with videos is to do it consistently. Make a schedule to create and distribute a video once a week to begin with. Once you get faster and more comfortable with it increase your volume. You’ll see a nice boost in backlinks, rankings and web traffic.

Attract a continuous stream of NEW visitors to your website without spending a dime on advertising by picking up a copy of Article Marketing Strategies.

Understanding ourselves is also critical to traffic creation. Why do I say this?  Well, I have found that I need to be focused, and completely at ease, in order to relax enough, and ‘place myself’ in the head of the person reading my website.  What questions are they asking?  What do They want information on? What is their real issue or question.

To learn more about this, and other website traffic issues, I highly recommend the Traffic Recipe Cookbook, as well as the Self help data base.

To help ensure your mindset is always right, I highly recommend the daily reading as well of personal improvement material, and the Success Strategy System.

Expert Advice – How to Generate Free Traffic With Video Marketing

Monday, December 7th, 2009

There are many ways to generate free traffic to your websites and blogs, but not all of them are always very effective, because it depends how you go about it.   In this article I will show you how easy it is to build quality long lasting website traffic to your sites for free.  Nothing could be easier, really.

Steps to create a video and market it:

1.  Do keyword research.  Use a keyword search tool and find out which long tail keywords you can use to get some searches on.  Search in Google to see what the competition is.  If there are about 500-1000 searches for the keyword monthly and less than 20000 pages on Google for that, then it is a good keyword for video marketing.

2.  Now decide what exactly you are going to make the video on.  Are you going to make it an instructional one or a tutorial video or what?  You choose.

3.  Decide which video capture device you are going to use.  You can use a digital camera, camcorder, phone, web camera or screen capture software, like camtasia.  I recommend the last one, if you are doing a YouTube tutorial video.

4.  Now do your video and make it as instructional, clear and good as you can. Rehearse it first and write a script to make it look professional.

5.  After that, you have to brand it. Put in your website logo, link to your website at the beginning, credits, or as a watermark for the duration of the video.  This is real important if you want to generate traffic for free with video marketing using YouTube or another video service.

6.  If you are satisfied with everything, you can submit your video to youtube.  If you use Tubemogul, you can submit your video to all the different video sites at the click of one button.  The more video sites, the better.  And of course you will get more website hits from your links.  Remember to write a keyword rich description for your video with your links included.

7.  Finally you have to market your video. Get some links to it.  Put it on your blogs, email it to other people, post it on Facebook, post links to it on Twitter and submit it to digg and other bookmarking sites. This will make sure your video gets ranked better and it will drive massive free traffic to your sites on autopilot.

See, I told you it’s easy.  If you want to learn more ways to generate free traffic to your sites, download these Free Traffic Courses.    They will show you how easy it is to get more traffic for less money.
