Video Marketing – How Powerful Is Video Marketing?

September 23rd, 2008

I use a lot of videos in my Internet Marketing. In fact, my mentor releases a lot of videos for us to use in our video marketing (although I really want to get back to making my own, just working on limited time right now).

But my revelation today about video marketing was less with a video specific for my business but more with a video posted months ago as just a family video.

Brookyn was fascinated by the Subway $5 foot long song…she sang it all the time. So I caught her singing it on video and uploaded it to YouTube.

Of course, since it was not a marketing video I did not pay any attention to it. So tonight when I went to upload a new video, imagine my surprise when I saw the video had over 300 views!

No keywords (really), no attention paid to what it was about, but garnered a lot of views.

I’m taking this as a lesson in getting additional video key words just right. I know why this got a lot of views…and taking this bit of knowledge I learned from this I plan to work on getting my other videos extra exposure.

Enjoy the video….It has been enjoyed by others over 300 times!

Internet Marketing Through Video Web Marketing

July 16th, 2008

Ok, I’m going to admit something here.

My first 10 or so attempts at video web marketing have been fairly brutal.

Its not that I consider myself a horrible person on camera or that I cannot handle putting together a video. What I do realize, however, is that my videos come across as too much of a pitch.

So I’m switching the strategy that I’m going to use. Provide information first, do little sales techniques, and focus on content and sincerity.

In fact, most of what I am going to try when recording myself is video blogging style videos. I plan on consulting with my mentor about it and see which works out best. His videos are attractive. They are done on a little more “professional” level (I’ve seen his equipment, he has me out-classed in this department).

Here is my first cut of it. I’m using my YouTube posting. For those who know anything about video marketing, you know that its about volume…not in the amount of videos you produce, but in the amount of videos that are out there on various sites. I mention this in the video: YouTube does not always return the highest ranking hits for a keyword.

A great tool for this is Traffic Geyser. Its costly, but easy to use and will get your video out across a LOT of websites in a short amount of time. From there, its up to Google/Yahoo/Live.com/etc to pick it up and your content to interest the viewer.
