But no doubt, Youtube Marketing can be a powerful marketing site/tool to gather traffic and potential leads.
1. It's the second largest search engine behind Google - that means you get a ton of eyeballs!
2. It's owned by google, so it can have a huge impact on your SEO if done properly
Here are a few suggestions for using YouTube for SEO purposes:
- Keywords: do the same keyword research you would do when optimizing for Google. If a keyword gets a lot of hits in Google, it will likely do well in YouTube. Include your keywords in the video title.
- How to's, Tutorials, Reviews: Google loves these types of YouTube videos, so much that they reserve a spot on the first page or two of Google results under these keywords for a YouTube video.
- Content: Make great content. Don't pay for likes (YouTube is smarter than that). Make lengthy videos, 3 to 5 minutes (and even longer) tend to perform better.
- Description: A description of 250 to 300 words is very helpful - YouTube will reward it. Drop a link at to your post at the top of this description for best results.
