Video Distribution Tips and Techniques Part Two
Here are eight lesser known tips and trick for your video distribution. Put these to use and people will see your marketing videos everywhere.
1. Subscribe to the “Big Hitters”. Find the top videos in your industry (based on the number of views). Subscribe to their videos. You will learn from them and others will see your name associated with them, allowing you to share in their credibility.
2. Submit a video comment to other videos in your industry. YouTube allows you to submit a video comment on other YouTube videos right beneath the viewing box. You can either create a new video or use one of your existing videos as this comment. When the industry video is shown, your video will be grouped in related videos, giving your video more exposure.
3. Write comments on other videos. You can also make written comments on other YouTube videos. Always include your URL with these comments. This will help spread your name and reputation. These should be comments that foster the conversation going on with the video.
4. Make friends on YouTube. In an earlier post, http://budurl.com/videosocialmediasite I showed you how to use YouTube as a social media site. As a social media site, it follows the rules of other social media sites for building friends and relationships. These are important in your distribution process. Cultivate friends on YouTube.
5. Check out Veeple, which is a cool, new video production technology that allows you to make certain spots on your video clickable. That way, people can click a video of a document to download a hard copy, or they can click on a video of a website to visit the website.
6. Non-sense code. On YouTube you can put in Tags for every one of your videos (keywords). By putting in a non-sense code, like spelling your name backwards, “laznah” into every Tag line, YouTube will group all the videos with this non-sense code together. What this means is that your videos will all be grouped together under the Related Videos.
7. Create a link back strategy. You are familiar with getting other businesses to link back to your website as a way of getting a higher search engine ranking. Employ the same strategy with your videos. Get other related businesses to link to your videos and you will get a higher search engine rating from Google and YouTube.
8. Social Book Marking. Social book marketing has become an important ingredient in today’s distribution channels. Put your videos on your website and have them also cited on places like Delicious.com, Digg.com, Stumbleupon.com and socialmarker.com will give your video increased distribution channels for others to find it.
