READ THIS BEFORE YOU ORDER!
I have been having a closer look at the videos that people are sending me for traffic and i realise a common mistake nearlly everyone is making.
YOU'RE NOT DOING YOUR KEYWORD (TAG) RESEARCH.....
I know it takes a long time to shoot and edit a video but if you carry that same effort a little further by researching the keywords you are trying to target and then actually list them in the tag and description (in context) sections you will see a HUGE difference.
So, for those of you that dont know about it yet, id like to introduce you to Youtube's Keyword Tool:
https://ads.youtube.com/keyword_tool
Make sure you read on to get better results....
EXAMPLE:
Lets take the "online business" niche. Recently somone sent me a video about this however didnt do any keyword research and just used his/her video title as tags:
How,to,start,making,money,online
If they spent an extra 20min or so researching keywords they would find that they are much better targeting something like the following (or longtail keywords):
make money,making money,free money,make money online,start business,start a business,online business,internet business,make money ebay
All the above keywords have a
total monthly search volume of 570,400 on youtube!
Thats a huge amount of potential people to view your video from youtube search alone. So what are you waiting for? Jump onto the youtube keyword tool and see what keywords you can come up with for your own niche and go back and edit your videos.... its never too late!!
And to get even better results?
Now that your video is live and kicking with a chunk of traffic coming its way you need to go and build some backlinks. One of the easiest ways we use to get backlinks to our videos is through article marketing. Write an article (outsource $2-$5) on the niche and create a backlink in the resource box linking to your youtube video and use one of your targeted keywords as the anchor text and submit it to all the top ranking article websites for free...
Article websites:
ezine, articlebase, go articles, article geek, article city and e-articles just to name a few.
and for those of you that have a little bit of cash laying around i would suggest heading over to "unique article wizard" for a little surprise.
Remember to think outside the box, ive only shown you one simple method.... start brainstorming!
