YouTube – Video Marketing tips
“Having already served up over 1.73 billion video views and 45 terabytes of video footage to the world, YouTube is everyone’s first port of call when they want to search for online video.” (Excerpt from Robin Good’s MasterNewMedia Blog) Shows the power of video footage. That’s ONLY YouTube, thats not including Ustream, Hulu or any other video viewing sites out there. Thousands literally flock to YouTube to watch the newest and greatest videos...network tv stations are wondering if they’re gonna become obsolete. So this avenue has become an amazing marketing potential.
For Businesses creating online presence…
1. When working with video…think short. Short sweet and to the point. 30 sec. to just over a min should be plenty of time to generate interest and show samples.
2. Be somewhat random. Use humor, be lighthearted, keep your tone light. Remember not to take yourself too seriously and stay on topic!
3. Equipment? One $300 digital video camera, one YouTube account. A good microphone wouldn’t hurt either.
4. Bring people back… by offering some they will look forward too. Maybe a weekly giveaway..or sign up for a prize.
5. Use tags, LOTS of tags. When you use lots of tags, people can find you easier, also helps you get more views.
