YouTube blocked in China

This article has some very useful information, but it just makes it even more frustrating that I cannot use YouTube at all here in China - it has been blocked for more than a month now!

Video Killed The Radio Star

Thanks for all the great YouTube tips! Video is here to stay the trick is to creatively incorporate it into your business.

Video Marketing

Youtube is a great way to maximize profits for any business! The tips above are very helpful!

Youtube Marketing - Internet Video Marketing

Best Beauty and Health Tips

Congratulations to youtube, but it's still very early days though. Video sharing has only really entered the public consciousness over the past year, and there's still copyright and compensation issues to be worked through.

Puts Yahoo and MSN into 4th place?

This has changed my priorities for getting new websites listed on search engines - I had Yahoo and MSN as my 2nd and 3rd priorities, and not doing anything about YouTube at all (!).
Sophie Snell is a UK professional storyteller (www.sophiesnell.co.uk) which is a business which should be ideally suited to video, so we'll get a well-tagged clip on YouTube and see what happens...

Simple but effective tips

You've provided some valuable information on this page.
I like the idea of including the word 'video' in the title. Not too sure though about using a link as the very first thing people will see in the description... Has this proven to work better than including the link at the end of description?
I also like the clip introducing sponsored videos. It was a very good, brief overview of how to get more traffic using Youtube PPC.
Thanks for the great info.

Use the word video

Use the word video in your video title...what a great tip!
Makes perfect sense but I never thought of doing that.
I'll be trying that for sure to see what kinds of results
it brings.

Cheers

youtube is the king

Thanks for tips on ranking better in youtube.

Homer Says... DOH!

Does anyone else feel like the answers are staring you in the face but you cannot see the wood for the trees.

I cant believe I never thought to include the word "video" I will now though! :)

Interesting Youtube

Popularity of the Youtube Video does matters?

Convert Youtube to MP3

great post

really interesting post. it will be really useful for people who need this. looking forward to see more of this kind.
thanks.

Information overload

I'm in the midst of uploading 60+ videos for our business. Not only is my mind numbing, but I am really beginning to wonder if somewhere along the way the whole world doesn't just freak out on info overload. Thanks for the reminders on the keywords. Using KWs in UTube is tricky. They don't always "hold", even with quotes.

Youtube video

I also use youtube to promote my videos. I noticed that some videos have two word keywords and I was wondering how people do that since you can only seperate keywords with a space. Here is an example if you were using the keyword hot sauce it would be hot by itself and sauce by itself instead of just hot sauce. When you put in keywords you can only put a space between them unlike meta tags that use a comma.

Naturally

Great article and advice. I try to think of what is naturally interesting and attractive. Every time I cut corners on title, description, tags and engaging the community I am targeting, the audience votes - they don't show up.

Contest $5,000.00 Win

We have posted several stories about our web site contest to see what kind of hard working webmasters there is out there, and so far NONE!.. So I agree with the statement that was just made about the Lazy Webmasters out there not wanting to work. All they had to do was drive 5,000 new members to our site to win that contest, and we got emails asking for a percentage of the traffic that was driven there. I suppose some people can't read contest rules huh?.

Thanks Lee

Like the Youtube insight

Like the Youtube insight tools, an invaluable source for marketers in the tornado shelter business.

Youtube has content thieves

I love Youtube and I have gained a lot of traffic by posting links in the more info section of the ones that I have uploaded.

Here's what really bugs me though, people steal the content and the video and post them on their websites that are specifically designed to make money from PPC or affiliate products.

This is not right. I slave over making the video and writing the content and then some lazy webmaster steals both and makes money off of my hard work.

It' pathetic the way people abuse a good thing.

Other than not having enough Youtube Police, i love Youtube.

watermarking

Hi Jordy, make sure to watermark your videos in a way that it would be difficult for someone to remove it without hurting the video quality. That way, no matter what the videos are used for, you're still promoting your brand or URL.

ad income from youtube

Youtube must start sharing ad income from content with the content owners in a proportionate way -in proportion to the views may be?

You Tube Videos

I enjoyed the article and practice the tips regularaly. Although nothing I have has gone viral, in the past year I have collected 84 subscribers to my tape recorder restoration videos, and get comments. It IS important to view other videos and make comments, a great way to make friends and collect visitors. YouTube videos also get posted in Google very quickly, an added boost.

I think YouTube is a great source, I've seen so many great vids there and have made good contacts and gotten customers.

The keywords are very important, and one tip you left out is that keywords MUST be in the video description as well. Don't stuff them, but put them where they logically belong. For example, if a "tag" or keyword is "shoes", in your video description, be sure and mention "shoes" at least twice. That will also help people find you.

Thanks for a nice article!

media

My company is about to launch a Youtube video.I will let you know how it goes.....www.cashcowauction.net

Video is huge. Making them a hoot.

For real estate brokers, ideal vehicle to promote property but even more important the area. Have done local 4th of july celebrations, state fairs, soap box derby races, what a Maine winter storm looks like and a ton of sport videos, musicals etc to give flavor of little town of 6700. Video lets little David compete with Goliaths. Thanks for reading this..check out the real estate site www.mooersrealty.com too! Thanks again.

Youtube tips

Thanks for these tips to improve Youtube video rankings .Another one I found is to do a blog post the video that is to be promoted .

Travel

Interesting but it's possible for travel and hospitality industry ?

Nothing new!!!

Nothing new!!! Except that YouTube the 2nd largest Search engine :)

(Mmm, don't say who No.1 is; OK we know it's Google but why not say it, are they trying to hide something ??? )
