YouTube Videos Promotion Tips

Video is SEO friendly, Google-Panda friendly and on Google’s results pages to stay. Google is placing more value on long stays and visitors watching videos stay longer than others. Even if you don’t, since YouTube is the second most searched engine in the world (and owned by the #1—Google), there is good reason to make the most of each upload.And still we have Indian brands not utilizing YouTube as a preferred marketing tool over Facebook or Twitter.

So how do you promote your YouTube Videos, once you have though through to go ahead with your video content? Here we share 5 ways you can start with to boost your YouTube presence

SEO-optimized title & description: Your YouTube video title is essential in helping your video be found on search Engine, so use appropriate keywords.Use the Google Keyword Tool to find variations of the keyword for additional tags.


Example Keyword: “Bollywood news”

TITLE- Best Bollywood News
DESCRIPTION- http://www.YourSite.com/blog – Do you know Today bollywood News ?

TAGS- Bollywood news, Best Bollywood news

Maximize your tags: so many people do not maximize the number of tags that they can have. Tags are your keywords, and they are critically important to being found. Include any relevant tags. Then, check back in a month or two to see how that particular video is being found—and change out some of the tags that are insignificant. For your long-tail keywords, be sure to include them within quotes, like “Business Blog Writers,” so that they’re searched as single phrases, rather than three separate words.


Use Multiple Calls to Action : These are my favorite calls to action to use on YouTube:

1. Please rate this video.
2. Follow me on Twitter.
3. Find me on Facebook.
4. Subscribe to my videos.
5. Visit my blog for more great videos.
6. Embed this on your site.
7. Please post your comments.
8. Send this video to your friends.
9. Check out my channel.

RSS Feeds :  Tell people about your YouTube videos using RSS feeds from your personal blog. I would recommend Feedburner.com as a great place to start with RSS feeds.

Create Playlists :  Playlists are a great way to get your videos watched by a lot of people. Here’s how:

1. Add your video to a new playlist
2. Add great videos on the same topic (from other people)
3. Choose a smart name for the playlist (think about your keywords. i.e. “Dog Training Tips”)


Promote Your Videos : Uploading videos to YouTube isn’t enough. You need to promote them. These are some ideas:

1. Embed your videos in your blog.
2. Create a video response: Search for a video that is similar to yours, and rather than writing a comment about it, create a video response that will attract the audience you want.
3. Write an article about your video and post it to article directories and forums.
4. Post your video to LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and your other social networks.
5. ASK PEOPLE TO SHARE – When posting on social networks including “Please Retweet” or “Share this with your friends” really helps.
